Adding a Project Name to a Part Label Scrap Name Field
You
may want to add a project name to a part label that contains fields displaying
the scrap material names. If this is done using a current default Microvellum
part label as a template, the process is quite easy, as shown by the screencast
attached.
Here
is a general outline of the process:
- Open the label in the Report Designer.
- Verify that the necessary database relations exist in the dataset (as shown in the screencast).
- Double click to open the desired text component.
- Position the cursor at the appropriate point, and if working with data related to the OptimizationResults data, insert the field definition:
OptimizationResults.Parts.Products.Projects.Name - Add the ampersand characters and empty string, as shown on the screencast, to make sure there is a space between the project name and the scrap name.
- Preview the report to make sure there are no errors that will later prevent the label from opening.
- Save and close the modified report.
