## About the Rule Tree Editor

The Rule Tree Editor dialog box
lets you define rules–or conditions and responses–that certain objects follow when displaying report information. For example, you may only want to show roundness dimension information for circle features in your report, even though your part program contains many other features. You can do this by using this editor. In your report template, you might add a CadReportObject and then access the Rule Tree Editor for that object. Inside the editor, you can then specify a circle feature type and then select a label template that is programmed to display roundness data.

Supported Objects:

The Rule Tree Editor works with these objects available from the Report Template Editor"

- TextReportObject

- CadReportObject

- Label Object

It also works with Page object available within the Custom Report Editor. Only these objects can access data from a part program using the Rule Tree Editor.

Accessing the Rule Tree Editor:

1. Insert a supported object into your report template, or select the Page object in the Custom Report Editor.

2. Right-click on the object.

3. Click on the RuleTree property. The Rule Tree Editor dialog box appears.
