It's possible to generate custom text string(s) to be used in the User notes Report Operation. Thus, allowing the user to create a report output in any format they choose including for example a summary of diameter(s) from a bolt pattern as shown below.
Considering a program that's measured (6) Cylinders, 1 thru 6... The following VB Script can be used:
- MxDia = 0
- MnDia = 100
- SumDia = 0
- for i = 1 to 6
- CylNm = "CYLNDR" + CStr(i)
- Dia = GetFeaturePropertyAct(CylNm,7)
- SumDia = SumDia + Dia
- If Dia > MxDia Then
- MxDia = Dia
- End If
- If Dia < MnDia Then
- MnDia = Dia
- End If
- next
- AvgDia = Round(SumDia/6, 4)
- MxDia = Round(MxDia, 4)
- MnDia = Round(MnDia, 4)
- RptStr = "Features | CYLNDR 1-6" + Chr(10) + "Nominal Dia | 9.525" + Chr(10) + "Max Dia | " + CStr(MxDia) + Chr(10) + "Min Dia | " + CStr(MnDia) + Chr(10) + "Avg Dia | " + CStr(AvgDia)
Next, the user can add a User note as follows. Where the VB Variable "RptStr" will be displayed as text in this User note field.
