Selecting and zooming in on report elements in the workspace

In specific reports, which usually analyze a greater number of elements (room schedule.rdlc, Allplan BCM reports), you can click a graphic or the unique, 14-digit component ID in the report to zoom in on and select the element in the workspace or active view. As you can only do this in editing mode, you need to make sure that Print Preview is not active.

To select and zoom in on an element in a report

• Select the viewport or view in which you want to zoom in on elements.
• Create a report, in which you can select and zoom in on elements, room schedule.rdlc, for example.
  The report is open in the Report Viewer.
• Print Preview is off and the report is displayed in editing mode.

1. Arrange the Report Viewer and Allplan workspace side by side so that you can see the relevant element.
2. Point to a graphic, unique component ID or name in the report.

   The cursor changes to a hand if there is a connection between the report and the element in the workspace.

   

3. Click the entry in the report.

   Tip: Press the CTRL key to select several elements.

   The elements are enlarged in the active viewport and displayed in the selection color.
