Problem

How can I change the header and footer for reports, such as FlexTable reports or the plan view of the model?

Solution

  1. Go to Report > Report Options
  2. Click the header or footer tab depending on what you'd like to change

  3. In the cells, choose one of the available functions. For example if you want to insert the Project Engineer (as define under File > Info), choose "%(ProjEngineer). If you want the name of the active scenario to appear, choose "%(ActiveScenarioLabel).

  4. You can also simply type in text in a cell (instead of selecting a function) and that text will appear in the header/footer.

  5. Click OK and generate a print preview of your report (such as from a Flextable) to see the header and footer.

Custom image or company logo

 You can also add your Company logo (or other image file) to the header or footer of reports.  Just open the Report Options dialog and click the position at which you wish to place your logo (.bmp or other image format) and select %(Image) from the pull-down list and you will be prompted to locate the file.  Then, in order to see your logo when you run the report, YOU MUST PRESS THE TAB KEY (as of version 10.03.01.08) in order to lock the file into the location.  You will see the path of the file in the %(Image) .
