Report Pop Up

Would the following even work?

I would like the operator to review the report, insert a comment at the end and the print it to a pdf. Our process is to run a part, read a report after it prints and the program is complete, and then gage any diameters that appear to be out. We need a comment at the end of the report that states the part was gaged. Any thoughts??

I've been playing with a few things but cannot get what I want exactly.

Thanks in advance.

No pressure, but this is HOT.

  • You can make it so the report is displayed as the program is executing (during execution hit 'Stop' then get the display as you want it, (i.e. hide the graphics window and edit window & show the report). PC-Dmis remember this layout for all future executions.

    You could then modify the report template by adding a new section (Max num pages set to one page).

    This is an effective way of having a sign-off sheet.

    On this you could have a text box control, if you put a tick next to the Text property of the text box you are prompted if you want to set the value (contents) of the box either the first time the program uses that template (useful for constant info like part name or description) or ever time the program uses that template, useful for variable info, like a serial number or in your case a declaration that they've everchecked with hard gauges.
