Tables

In VisualAnalysis, tables are used to report information in a clear and concise manner. The tables available for the report are listed in the Project Manager | Add Tables tab when the Report View is active. Tables fall into one of five categories (Project, Structure, Load, Result, and Design) and will automatically appear or disappear depending on the items in the model (elements, loads, etc.) and the available analysis and design results. Hover the mouse over a table in the list to view its description.

Table Types

Adding & Removing Tables

To add a table to the report, simply drag the table from the Project Manager | Add Tables tab to the desired location in the report or double-click on the table to insert it at the end of the report. A list of the report's Included Tables is shown in the Project Manager | Modify tab which can be rearranged by dragging them with the mouse. To remove a table from the report, click the X next to the table in the Included Tables list or right-click on the table in the report and select Remove.

Modifying Tables

Tables can be modified using the Report Settings or Model Filters in the Project Manager | Modify tab. The Report Settings are used to specify which Service Cases and Result Cases to include in the report while the Model Filters are used to filter the items that are included in the report (such as Nodes, Members, Design Groups, Connection Groups, etc.). Tables can also be modified by clicking on the tables in the report. Click the column header to sort the column, drag the column header to rearrange the columns in the tables, or drag the column boarders to adjust the column widths.

Selected Table

Click within a table to select the table and activate the Project Manager | Selected Table tab. In this tab, the Title can be modified, the columns can be sorted, and the page width can be defined. Choose which columns are included in the table under the Columns to Display section and drag the columns in this section to rearrange them in the report.

Selected Table Extremes

Certain tables have the Selected Table Extremes option available in the Project Manager | Selected Table tab. The following parameters are used to set how the information is filtered in the selected table.
