Reports

Reports are generated by ArtiCAD based on the current design. To generate a report click on "Reports" and then the name of the report you want to generate. They open up as a text document using your default text editor (normally "Notepad").

The report will be called "report.txt". You may wish to save the file as a different name.

The default text editor can be changed by clicking "Special" - "Edit golobal ini". Click the "Browse" button next to the "Text Editor" box and find the program you wish to use.

NOTE - If you attempt to generate a report and nothing appears, it's possible your default editor is set to a non-existent or invalid program.

Parts List

The parts list details the units used in the design. The level of detail can be changed by clicking "Reports" - "Configure Parts list" (see below).
