Auto generation of plots in reports

[Mukherjee]

Hi All,

      I am generating DIAdem reports with several plots in it and then exporting the reports as pdf files. I have automated the process to generate reports for several measurement files.  I have a report template. I load the results, refresh the report & then export the same. I am facing problems with labelling of the plots (legends, axis titles etc). The problem is: most of the plots have correct annotations, but in some of them the annotation texts disappear! Please let me know why it happens and roundabouts, if any.

      I had problems in calculating channel statistics. I could solve that using ChnCharacter command explicitly (as suggested by a DIAdem-veteran in this forum). Is any similar function to be used here?

With warm regards,

Saurav

Hi Saurav,

When you are creating the PDF files, is the DIAdem environment maximized or minimized?  I recently ran across an issue in DIAdem 10.2 where the axis labels would not show up on the exported PDF file when exported from a minimized DIAdem.  If this is not the problem, then I suggest you send us your scripts and all needed resource files so we can try to reproduce the problem.

Hi Brad,

        I tried exporting the reports while keeping the report window maximized. It seems to work. Hope it solves the problem, but I do not understand why it behaves in this manner. I added following two lines into my script to do it.

Call WndShow("REPORT","SHOW") '... show the report window
Call WndShow("REPORT","MAXIMIZE") '... maximize the report window

Thanks for the suggestion!

With warm regards,

Saurav

Hi Saurav,

This is a bug that R&D already knows about and has already fixed in the code base for versions after DIAdem 10.2.1.
