3D Views in Reports
(Requires GHS version 19.00 or later with CG) |

John Bonn called. He said he appreciated the new 3D views in Condition Graphics which can be rotated, zoomed, and panned because they made GHS even more like a video game. He also said they made his designs look much nicer, but he had one complaint:
"Why can't I put them in a report?" Well, John, we hear you. And we'd been thinking the same thing. So, as part of the version 19.00 release this capability is now available. It works exactly like other CG views, with the image being written to any open report automatically. Since one benefit of 3D views is the ability to rotate the view, optional azimuth and elevation subparameters are now available on 3D views as well, and multiple views can be included on one DISPLAY command (note the line continuation characters ;; used below). For example: |

report ship3d.pf
di status 3D@135@15:"Stbd Fwd View (azi=135, elev=15)", ;; 3D@180@30:"Stbd Deck View (azi=180, elev=30)", ;; 3D@225@10:"Stbd Aft View (azi=225, elev=10)" report off |

...which results in the following report output: |
