Custom data

[[Er...]]

Time has Come to start the migration to piweb. Zeiss workaround for text elements is comments if I remember it correctly. How ever, I can only get one row of comments. Have I missed some setting?
I have aprox 800 rows of result from custom calculations in a lot of programs. There is no option, I need this on the report. I have reached out to my local zeiss rep but not yet recived an answer. Any one here who know ho to fix this?

As far as I can see, you can make a PiWeb text box adapt to the text size in various ways, but that doesn't mean it'll dynamically grow with the text length. To display all rows the box must be big enough from the start (tested in Calypso 2017).
Wow, that sucks....and is now another item on my list.

Fu#k.

A text box you say. Never done that, I'll look that up. But Im not hoping for satisfaction... And I can pass information to it by bindning it to a variable?

As an example, if the airfoil of a turbine blade is almost perfect, There will be aprox 20 lines. If all sections are bad, and all calculations in all offset steps im allowed to do will be calculated. Then we are at about 800 lines. So if a make a box, There will be a lot of empty pages in the pdf if the parts are good, wich is the normal case. I could make a script for removing pages if they dont contain anything useful. But man, this piweb feels like 20 steps in to the future untill you discover that there was no brainstorming before. This really is a tailor made product for a car manufacur that they try to force upon us. Even if it laks basic functons from the old report system. I sincearly hope someone got fired for this.......

Eric,

Can you show me an example of what you used to have, and what you are experiencing now?

Feel free to PM me if you'd like.

I was referring to the FeatureComment output field in the standard PiWeb report, which is a basic one-line text box. I didn't mean to say that it can replace the Calypso text element.
The problem with PiWeb text boxes is this: If your text (from the Caylpso characteristic comment) has more than one line, you have to enlarge the PiWeb box from the start so that all lines can be displayed. This doesn't happen automatically and that is pure nonsense in my eyes. It should grow and shrink dynamically depending on how much text there is to display.
