[ZE...] Posted April 13, 2018 Author Share Posted April 13, 2018 If you are using custom printout as opposed to PiWeb, you will need to edit the user ini fields. That's what I did back in version 5.xx and just kept it. Im not at my machine but when I get back there I will send you info unless someone else has a quicker way...

[ZE...] Posted April 13, 2018 Author Share Posted April 13, 2018 I changed the custom printout header to serial # but it didn't ask for it but its on the report with * partsn * where the serial # should be. Jon Fair | 29.01.2018 21:36 | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[ZE...] Posted April 13, 2018 Author Share Posted April 13, 2018 You need to add it the report via the user ini fields. I can take some screen shots of mine and email them to you or post them on here. Whichever you prefer Mike Racine | 30.01.2018 14:10 | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[ZE...] Posted April 13, 2018 Author Share Posted April 13, 2018 You will ave to changed the userfield.ini file. Attached is info for how the userfield.ini file is developed. Basically, Go to the Zeiss/calypso/opt/om/protform file and open XXX_userfields. Set up any new names you need such as U_field3, part color, RE Just follow the format shown in the existing file. Pay attention to capital letters and small letters! R shows up to be changed at runtime. E shows up only under resources/printout header parameters. So if you want an operator to be prompted to change the input at run time use R. If you want to input something that stays for a particular part, use E. If you�re not sure, use RE! Save your edited xxx_userfields file as userfields.txt. Now when you go back to Resources/printout/design custom printout/vphead, you will see your newly added items such as part color or material in the list at the left. To set up the parameters that are E accessible only, go to resources/printout header parameters. Set them up here. The �force input at start� button can be used to force operators to enter something at runtime (for the R accessible parameters).
