Create Hyperlinks for Embedded Web View Report

To create one-way and two-way hyperlinks between the document and the Web View embedded in the report, use these methods. These linking methods are inherited from the slreportgen.webview.EmbeddedWebViewDocument base class of the report generator.

  • createDiagramTwoWayLink — Create a two-way link between a document location and a diagram in the Embedded Web View. Clicking a link created by this method in the document opens the target diagram in the Web View. Clicking in the diagram scrolls the document pane to the target document location.

  • createElementTwoWayLink — Create a two-way link between a document location and a diagram element in the Embedded Web View. Clicking a link created by this method in a document opens the diagram containing the model element and flashes the element. Clicking the element in the diagram scrolls the document pane to the target document location.

  • createDiagramLink — Creates a link from the document to a diagram in the Embedded Web View.

  • createElementLink — Creates a link from the document to an element of a block diagram in the Embedded Web View.

For example, the following code creates two-way links between a report on the variables used by the exported model and blocks that use those variables.

function fillContent(rpt)

import mlreportgen.dom.*
import mlreportgen.report.*
model = getExportModels(rpt);
model= model{1};

% Find variables used by the reported model
finder = slreportgen.finder.ModelVariableFinder(model);

% Create a Variables Chapter
ch = Chapter("Variables");

while hasNext(finder)
    result = next(finder);
    % Create a section for the variable
    s = Section(result.Name);
    
    % Add variable information to the section
    reporter = getReporter(result);
    reporter.ShowUsedBy = false;
    add(s, reporter);
    
    % Create a Users list with links to the embedded model
    usedByPara = Paragraph("Used By:");
    usedByPara.Bold = true;
    add(s, usedByPara);
    users = result.Users;
    nUsers = numel(users);
    for u = 1:nUsers
        userLink = createElementTwoWayLink(rpt, ...
            users{u}, ...
            Paragraph(users{u}));
        add(s, userLink);
    end
    
    %Add this section to the chapter
    add(ch, s);
end

% Add the chapter to the report
add(rpt, ch);
end
