Merlin – Do a bit of Magic in Reports – Part XV

Those of you who have checked our new post series about “Merlin report templates” know by now…

Now let’s do some magic with the reports.


Report Events
To report events recorded in your Merlin project, you may customize the Elements area, click an Event row and call File > Print > PDF…

Should you like a report template, here is one outputting non private Events defined in your Merlin project.

Feel free to check the contained python file ‘MEREventsReport.py’, “MEREventsReport.wbl” or “Info.plist” to see how we ask for elements of kind ‘Event’, or how we iterate in their properties for the output. Feel free to modify this custom report further as you require for your needs.

An output sample:

And the report options:

Installation:

  • Extract the zip first
  • place the contained mrept package under the following path of your mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Merlin/Reports
  • (in case you have no “Reports” folder please create it first and pay attention to name it exactly as “Reports”)
  • restart your Merlin and
  • call File > New Report… to find the new report called “Events Report”.
