We can write a MicroStation Report about text elements. Here's an example Text Report . How would I design a report to analyse text nodes? That is, get the text node location, and list its text contents? Suppose I have a text node that contains three…

We can create a DGN Table using a Report as a data source. However, that connection is a black box with no public access. Is there a way in which we can connect to a Report programmatically, in order to use it as a data source? I'm thinking a generalised…

The .NET API lacks any support for MicroStation Reports . The C++ MicroStationAPI provides ways to create a Report definition (e.g. class ReportDefinitionNode ) but I don't see the same for .NET. Perversely , the C++ MicroStationAPI documents a managed…

ColumnDefinitionNode::GetFormattingOptions is broken There's currently no way to apply formatting to a Report column programmatically. It's not possible to get the column formatting options. Paul Connelly said: Looking at the implementation of GetFormattingOptions…

I have two Item Type definitions: Area Features and Doors . I can tag an office, for example, as an Area Feature ; and I can tag a door cell as a Door . Here's an illustration... Now I want to relate one to the other. You can see that Door 102 belongs…

ECN::IECInstancePtr formatOptions { columnNode->GetFormattingOptions (true) }; Once I've modified formatOptions , how do I pass those data back to my columnNode ? I don't see a ColumnDefinitionNode::SetFormattingOptions() method.

How does one create a Report column definition that formats an element property? For example, if I manually create a Report about text elements I can add the element origin. Then I right-click to format it... The Report now includes the formatted…

I want to create a Report programmatically. The Report should have a column that displays the DGN file name where an Item is found. In a related question I found how to add a DGN model name to a report... DgnECHostRelationshipSpecificationList hostList;…

I'd like to add the active DGN model name to a Report . I'm looking at the ReportsExample delivered with the SDK What I'd like to see is a report of the Item Types defined by commands CMD_REPORTSEXAMPLE_CREATE_ITEMTYPES CMD_REPORTSEXAMPLE_ATTACH_ITEMTYPES_TOELEMENT…

My code can build an ECQuery that interrogates Item Type instances. I would like to create a Report that emulates that ECQuery. Is there any way to translate an ECQuery to a Repor t filter? That is, user has queried a set of elements by filtering their…

My code for AreaAnnotator creates an Item Type definition in the active DGN file if one doesn't already exist. That works fine, and I can add Item data to shape elements. The code also attempts to define a Report , and I am failing miserably. Here's…

SDK example ReportsExample shows how to define an Item Type Report programmatically. There is a commented line that illustrates a filter, to restrict the rows generated in the Report ... reportNode->SetRowFilter (L" this.DgnCustomItemTypes_VendorCatalogItem…

Thanks to a hint by Ian Lapper in this thread , I can format text fields that display element properties the way I want... How can I apply that same formatting to the same data in a CONNECT Report ?
