Considerations
You can add or remove entities from the ASAP environment using the EDL language.
For more information, see Section 6: Entity Definition Language (EDL).
You can dynamically configure icons using the Icon Server. For more information, see
Icon Server Control Panel on page 97.
To obtain HTML Entity-Attribute Grid reports:
1. Click the Current Entity toolbar button to generate HTML Reports for either the
current entity or for all enabled entities. The Current Entity button is located
immediately below the Entity drop-down and is just to the left of the "wrench"
toolbar button. HTML Report detail is a function of whether the wrench button is
depressed. If the wrench is depressed then all enabled entities appear in the
toolbar and consequently all enabled entities appear in the HTML Report. If the
wrench is not depressed then the HTML Report is only for the current entity.
2. HTML Report column display is controlled with the Show In Grid property on the
Attribute tab of the ASAP Property sheet.
3. HTML Report column graphs are controlled with the Show In Graph property on
the Attribute tab of the ASAP Property sheet.
4. HTML Report object selection is controlled via the drop-downs that appear along
the top of the main ASAP client window. These functions include:
- Node drop-down selects node/nodes to be analyzed
- Entity drop-down selects entity, note all entities if the wrench depressed
- Object drop-down selects objects to be analyzed, note wildcards are allowed
- Samples drop-down selects the depth of history to be analyzed
- State drop-down selects the minimum state of objects to be analyzed
5. ASAP HTML Reports have several useful applications including copying/pasting
ASAP reports into documents and/or e-mailing ASAP reports to others.
6. To COPY an ASAP HTML Report once the report is displayed in IE, select:
- EDIT ... Select ALL...
- EDIT ... COPY
- Paste copied data into your document
7. To E-mail reports via IE, select:
- FILE...
- SEND...
