A legend can be included in the network for information about the design, the client, revisions and logos. The legend consists of a grid that can be freely defined by a number of rows and columns. A text or image (bitmap) can be displayed in a cell. Cells can be combined.

Merging cells

This indicates which cells must be merged. The procedure is comparable with Excel, where the range is indicated with the upper-left cell and the bottom-right cell, with a colon in between. The example below shows the merging of three cell blocks:

C1:E2

B4:D4

C5:D5

 

Cell

The contents of a cell can be specified by first choosing the cell from the table and hereafter typing the text in the text field. The text size can be adjusted.

 

A number of system variables can be included, like file name and date/time. The method is the same as printing macro-results in a text field. The available system variables can be found in the Macro standard objects. Examples:

 text(Network.FilePath, Network.FileName)

 text(System.Date)

 text(System.Time)

 

 

In addition to text, an image can also be displayed in a cell. The cell then contains a reference to the image as bitmap-file, png-file, jpg-file or jpeg-file. This can also be a url.

 

In the case of merged cells, only the content of the first cell is presented in the legend.
