Commands

Create a TDF-Report A TDF-Report is created from the listed report items. Internally, for this purpose a TCL-file is created firstly (the name is equal to the report name with a leading 'temp_'). This Tcl-File may be used to manually create a report with the RM-command 'Assemble TDF-Report' in the 'File' Menu of RM. This second step is done automatically and leads to the desired TDF-Report file. The TDF-Report may be viewed by using the TDF-Viewer. In case, an instance of the TDF-Viewer-Application is active with a prior version of the report file, the viewed report is updated automatically by the viewer and changes may be observed immediately.
