    Can't Open Report Entities for Editing


       
      Applies To 
       
      Product(s): gINT Logs, gINT Professional, gINT Professional Plus
      Version(s): N\A
      Environment:  N\A
      Area:  Report-Multiple General
      Subarea:  N\A
      Original Author: Kathleen Holcomb, Bentley Technical Support Group
       

     

    When I double-click on some or on all of the entities on our report template nothing happens.  

    Steps to Accomplish

    Entities are in a locked layer

    The entities you are unable to edit may be in a locked layer.  To check this look for the  button on the toolbar.  Check each layer in the layer list.  

    Layer 0 is locked:

    Layer 1 is unlocked: 

    Click the   button to lock or unlock that layer.

    Entities are in an internal or a drawing library block

    The entities may be in an internal or a drawing library block.  Usually entities in a block are a color other than black.  To edit entities in an internal or a drawing library block you must navigate to that block.  Entities in private blocks are editable right on the Report Design page.

    Recovery, Blow Counts, Tests and Remarks and the other columns are in private blocks.  Double-clicking these columns will open them for editing.

    To edit the entities in an internal or drawing library block hold down the Alt key and click once on the block header.

    This will open an internal block or the drawing library block for editing.

    Sometimes there are blocks nested within other blocks.  In the internal block, Logo and Title, only the hole number and page number entities can be edited.  The other entities are in the drawing library Title Portrait block: 

    Alt+click on the drawing library Title Portrait block header to open it for editing.  The logo and the company name and address entity are in the Company Information block:

    Alt+click on the Company Information block to open it for editing:
