Create template for report writer

General Questions/Discussions

Hello,

I’m looking for a guide to create my own template for the report writer.

I’ve searched the forum and found a post with a link to a page where it should have been made clear, but that link (http://www.visual-paradigm.org/openArchitecture.php) isn’t available anymore.

Is there a guide/ set of instructions or even just a way to create your own templates? Please let me know and tell me how.

Kind regards,

Mark Scheepens

Hello Jick,

Thanks for your quick response, but I have seen the site your referring to and that’s only showing me how to get a custom created template into my report writer.

But still I don’t know how I can make the template itself.
For instance, I want to create a template that automatically takes all my Use Case Diagrams and the documentation of its children.

I don’t exactly know if it’s possible, but I would like to have the option to display the documentation of all the actors/ use cases/ sytem of a Use case diagram in one table.
just as its done in the report generators.
At best I would like to have this in a template.

Best regards,
Mark Scheepens

Hello Mark,

I regret that this is not possible at the moment. The function shown in the article just make whatever documentation as a start up template. I will pass your wish onto our team. Sorry about this.

Best regards,
Jick
