Links in reports
This interface opens when you click the Go
to cell in the Report
configuration. It allows you to select the element ID to use for the
link.
For example, if you want to find a component from a manufacturer part
report, link the com_id of the
component, for a manufacturer part, add the bom_id
to link the reference to the manufacturer part properties.
1. Select in
the list the object type.
2. Select the
ID to use.
If you want to remove an existing link, select the <None>
option.
Default link: When a link has
multiple results, you can select a link by default.
The link is automatically generated in the report drawing, it's shown
in blue. A link can have several targets, for example in a BOM report,
if you have created a link on a merged row. When you click on a link,
a contextual menu opens to select the item that you want to display.
When you export the drawings in PDF files, the links are also generated.
Furthermore, if you create a link on a manufacturer part containing a
datasheet, all the datasheets are
grouped on a specific bookmark of the PDF file.
