#
# Report definition file
#
# This file contain the defintions for all reports produced by IsoExractor.
#
# IsoExtractor reports are generic reports that operate on component attributes
# Reports generated are plain text files that can be attached to a text node in the
# drawing. A report definition is a combination of specification and a script.
#
# REPORT = Specifies the extension given to the report. The basename
# of the report is the same as the isometric DGN, the report is written
# to the IE_REPORTDIR directory
#
# INCLUDE = Provides a rule which components are to be included in the report. The
# rule operates on the component attributes. There can be multiple
# INCLUDE lines. Any INCLUDE line satisfied includes the component in the
# report
#
# EXCLUDE = same as INCLUDE but this time to specify that a component should not
# be in the report. Multiple EXCLUDE lines are allowed. Any EXCLUDE
# line satisfied excludes the component from the report.
#
# COLUMN = <width> : <format/alignment> : <expression>
#
# Specifies a column in the report, consists of three fields separated
# by a colon character.
#
# <width> specifies the width of the column in character positions
#
# <format/alignment> a combination of:
# L left aligned
# R right aligned
# C centered
# W wrap, a new line will be added if the length of the expression
# exceeds the width of the report
# A Accumulated value. If present a variable any property mentioned in
# expression is multiplied by quantity
# 0-9 A single digit is interpreted as the number of decimal places to use
# (precision) for each property mentioned in the expression
#
# <expression> An expression for the content of the report column. Any component
# attribute or string can be used. Example:
# IE_DESCRIPT + UUID + "and a string"
# would concatenate the atributes IE_DESCRIPT and UUID and the string
# "and a string"
#
# SEP = column separator. Can be any combination of characters, a '@' is used
# as a space placeholder. The default SEP is the empty string
#
# NODE = specifies the text node number in the isometric the report will be
# attached to
#
# SORTHEADERS = specifies if sort group headers are to be used (see: rep_sortgroups.txt)
# 1 = use sortgroup header
# 0 = dont
#
# TEXT = Specifies a line to be written to the report. '@' acts as a placeholder
# for a space
#
# WRITE = Write this or another report. When empty the report is written according to
# the COLUMN, INCLUDE, etc statements
# When a report extension is specified than that report is included
#
# GROUP = a list of attributes that defined which component are grouped together
# thus using the same line in the report (increasing the quantity). Attributes
# are comma separated
# SORT = sort the list on a set of attributes value. Consiste of a comma separated list
# of attributes with an optional descending/ascending order. Example:
# SORT = <attr_name:<sortspec>,<attr_name:<sortspec>
# sortspec (optional) is a combination of:
# D descending
# N numeric sort
#
# There is a set of attributes added by the software:
#
# SPOOLID the name of the spool (if any) a component is part of
# PARTID the part ID of the component
# CUTID the pipe cut ID a component is part of (only for pipes/bends)
#
# IE_FIELD 1 if component is determined field, 0 if component is shop
# IE_LINENAME the line name
#
# Reserved keywords
# QUANTITY the nett quantity of the component, normally length for pipe/bend
# items, piece count for piece items. The quantity for pipes is
# formatted to the unit used
# SIZE1 the main component diameter. Formatted to the unit used
# SIZE2 the run size or branch size if this is different from SIZE1
# SIZE3 the branch size if this is different from SIZE1 & SIZE2
#
#
