Title: Documentation with images and content from different packages
Post by: abaltins on December 23, 2018, 10:09:30 am

I have diagrams on in one set of packages and elements in the diagrams in other packages.  I want to generate reports with the diagrams and images together. 

Is there a way to do this beyond using a report package containing a model document for the image and another model document for the elements?  I’m thinking something like a document reference (element in the elements’ package) could be used to point to (and output) the diagram but my experiments have failed.

Any Ideas?

I haven't found any other way.

You haven't quite articulated what you want. I'm confused about what you are trying to achieve but guessing two approached may be useful.
a) point to the package with the diagrams and report details on the elements within the diagram using Package>Diagrams>elements. This allows for the pattern of a diagram followed by details of elements of whats on the diagram
b) Use document fragments and write custom SQL.
