Landscape report

Hi,

sorry for the trivial question but is there an easy way to generate a report (i.e. Basic RTF Report) in Landscape page format ?

TIA

Hello Sergio,

No, unfortunately, there is not an option to generate the RTF report in landscape format. Nevertheless, we will deal with this issue. CR # 66 921.
Thanks for your patience.

Vladka + TDM Team

Since there is no Landscape option available I’m trying to customize the RTF Report, but I cannot find where the page format is defined.
Can you help me ?

TIA

Hi,

our To-Do list for next major version (after 3.6) contains also tasks related to generation of ER Diagrams into RTF reports and better management of RTF report settings, incl. page format, colors and fonts settings etc.

Unfortunately, there needs to be done some changes in application in order to use scripting to change page format, that’s why I have to ask you for patience and wait for next major release.

Vaclav

Ok !
Any time frame for the new release ?

Hi,

exact date has not been defined yet but next major version may appear in several months. Of course, this feature can be introduced much sooner in BETA.

Vaclav

I notice that we are now at Release 5, and neither of the aforementioned feature is yet available ?

Both of Sergio’s questions are very valid and should be made available - all of the other DM tools out there allow user-defined report layouts. Does Quest have any further update,please, on when this is going to fly ?

Thanks

Hi,

improvements of reporting features are on our roadmap. In version 5.2 (currently in BETA) you can find completely new system of management of relationship lines. That was, from technical perspective, significant modification of the application and that’s why some other requests will appear in TDM a bit later. No exact date has been set yet.

Vaclav
