Creating customized RTF template

[Ashish_Mehta]

Hi frenz,

I want to create a RTF template that could pick elements from a package according to there type and display them.

Please reply if it is possible.

TIA

Also, If someone could provide some references about using bookmarks to pick elements from model into RTF reports then it'll be great

Hi frenz,

I want to create a RTF template that could pick elements from a package according to there type and display them.

If you would like to include only certain types in the RTF (actions, components, classes, etc.) you could use the "Generate options" dialog from documentation panel and exclude the details for all types you would not like to see.
Unfortunately EA does not save those settings so you will have to repeat that step any time you are generating the doc.

Other alternative: Put all unwanted types in a package, then go to its context menu and choose Documentation ->Ret Report options and mark it as excluded for RTF documentation.

If none of this is sufficient you will have to write your own export addin.

Thanks Oliver!!

Actually i want the template to check the type & name of the element before including in the RTF report.

Could you tell me more about writing my own export addin.
Where do i get reference material for it.

Unfortunately I have not played around with writing addins yet.
There is some information in the help files and I believe there is a document in the SparxSystems support area.

Good luck.
