Coupling Data and Report.File

[Pieczarek]

It´s boring and annoying to open a Datafile and the Report-File manually.

When I open a Datafile and change to Report, then the Fileopen-Button opens a complete different directory and i have to click (many clicks!) to the destination where the Datafile was loaded from.

Please improve this!

Hello Pieczarek,

This function is already implemented. It is up to you how to synchronize the file folders for the different DIAdem modules. Please have a look at the menu “Settings” – “DIAdem Settings” and there at “Select path” and the help on this page.

Hello Mr. Rick,

I know this, but when working on different projects at the same time (or reviewing old data) I`d prefer to have a

better interaction between Navigator, View and Report.

For approx. 80% of our data we save a separate Report layout. When I load a data file (and there exists a report or view layout with the same name) it wolud be very helpful when they were loaded too automatically.

A second improvement would be, that  the fileopen button opens the path which was last opened, no matter in which module. For example: if I load a file in navigator and change then to report, then the fileopen function in report module shows the same directory.

Regards,

Pieczarek

Hello Mr. Pieczarek,

I can understand your request, but please note that the we try to have a default configuration of DIAdem which fits most of our customers. I addition to that it is typical possible to change this configuration or customize it.

For your first request I suggest the following:

Create a Root property for the name of a corresponding REPORT layout file. Create a user command for the event Navigator.Events.OnLoaded. The event is automatically called after a file is loaded and the user command can investigate the property and load the corresponding layout.

For your second request:

As I already mentioned this is a question of the path synchronization in DIAdem. If the data path and the document path are the same, then the loading behavior is as requested. Please have a look at the menu “Settings” – “DIAdem Settings” and there at “Select path” and the help on this page.
