Custom printout Calypso 6.2 to Calypso 8.0

Recommended Posts

We just got a new CMM running the latest Calypso, 8.0 and I need to move programs over from Calypso 6.2.

As far as I know my custom printouts will not work. Can someone help me clarify a few things and direct me in the right direction as to what would be the easiest way to setup reports.

Programs I moved over automatically print a compact printout it seems with header fields missing.

Is there a way to still use my custom printouts with the same header fields?

Do I need to change every single program to Multiple printouts and create piweb with the same header? 

If you made the same upgrade, what did you do? Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks

Have you tried allowing old printouts? It's in the menu -> compatibility. This was discussed on forum - i believe in Calypso section.

I did try that. It still only showed the compact printout and my header was missing the custom fields.

Does it ask you to fill that header field?

It should allow you to fill that field if it's in protocol header.
Next piece into this puzzle is userfield.ini file - have you copied this also?

I wonder if the custom report relies on the basic reporting program like the old graphics element does. It's not part of the install routine anymore, so you would have to run the setup manually. If you have the Calypso installer handy, it's in the folder location Tools > ZEISS Basic Reporting64.

I think the compatibility setting only changes whether or not you can spec the custom report and graphics elements in new plans, existing ones should still display them normally.

The userfield.ini file fixed the header issue. The format seems different, I have one field that prints smaller font then it did on the old version, and all the results are way bigger font, not sure if there is a way to decrease the size of the font?

I'd like to be able to print the old graphics elements too, where do I find this TOOLs folder?

I think you can edit font size in template editor - in userfield is only content.

It's bundled with the installer for Calypso. If you don't have that you can download it from the Zeiss portal.
