Cast-In Material Specification
Introduction
The report specifies the Cast-In Materials in the project.
Report Setup
General report setup. All the fields have to be filled as it prints a sum row at the end of each page.
Page max X and Page max Y defined the maximum size of the report page.
The x-axis is the columns A, B, C, and etc. and the Y-axis is the rows 1, 2, 3, and etc.
Continuous Header is defined in which row the header and footer start, and in this case, it starts from row 0.
Continuous start row(in this case it is row 11) is where the main info starts and ends in the Continuous end row(in this case it is row 35)
And in row 36 we have the summary for each page
Header setup:
Here is how the header is set up for this report.
As you can see we have those x and y values for each field, so the program knows where to put the specific information into the report.
As mention above the Continuous header starts at row 0 to row 10 in the Y direction.
Here are the fields that can be added to the Header and footer:
