Look at the results of an optimisation
When Optimisation is finished the program moves automatically to Review Runs. Alternatively to view the existing optimisation result (current batch), at the main screen:-
● Select: Review - Runs
or
Select the Toolbar option
The screen shows the first report usually the Management Summary (or Batch summary if there is more than one run).
Use the navigation buttons and menu choices to view the reports. The stacked menu at the left shows the various summaries available.
(The reports shown and the layout of each report on screen can be changed in situ and the layout of the printed version of each report can also be changed.) Standard Reports include a thumbnail view of the Cutting patterns (Pattern Preview), full Patterns, and Cutting instructions where appropriate.
Export - data from most reports can be exported and content customised.
Runs pane
The mid pane (if switched on) on the Review runs screen shows the available runs.
The current batch is underlined (there may only be one run in a batch). The current batch is the batch that is automatically loaded when moving to other options. To mark another batch as the current batch:-
right click on the runs pane
to pop the options.
Summary tabs
At the foot of each summary are tabs linking to other sections of that summary, for example, custom charts of the data, more details about a pattern ... Click on the tabs to move between sections.
Notes
- The reports available depend on the modules in use
- A temporary batch, created when selecting an optimisation from the main menu and displayed as ‘!’, is not marked as the current batch and cannot be set as the current batch.
- Invalid batch. Where a report shows this message (instead of data) this means one or more files in the batch/run are out of date or missing. For example, a parameter file used by the batch/run may have been renamed or deleted. Check the batch data.
