Quote from: Newbeeee™ post_id=3848 time=1611002575 user_id=157You're welcome to my Active reports sheet.
It's effectively a tool list which has a header of customer part number issue etc.
It also outputs stock size and blank Datum calls .
So...you'd have to save as pdf because MC are too cheap to offer the MSWord option.
Then use something like nitro pro to open the pdf and add any info you want - such as datum setting info for each axis.
Then screen snip any views you want and paste them in.
It is a ballache. Nitro was the best i could find that was the most compatible.
Better than adobe editor.



Send it ill take a look
Thanks

Relatively inexpensive, how many hours will you spend tweaking active reports?

Is your MC current or are you using an older version?

I add text lines in the Active Reports Reader before saving as PDF.

You should give the Mill2 setup sheet a try. It has a pretty clean tool list. If I remember correctly, It didn't have the option for taking screen shots but that's easy to add.  I'll take a couple of screen shots of mine in the morning.  If nothing else, it's one more option for you to look at.  

I can't remember for sure, but doesn't that Varco have a free limited version of his setup sheet? edit: never mind that - I just looked and it's a lot more limited than I remember.  :lol:

Steve,

I sent you a couple of youtube videos on customizing setup sheets, it is pretty easy. Check your slack messages.

Have you used the active report setup sheets before?  Do you know how to change between them in the operation manager?
