Components

Components are MATLAB® objects that specify the content of a report. Add components to specify the

types of content that commonly occur in reports. The MATLAB

Report Generator™ provides a set of components for specifying the types of content that commonly

occur in MATLAB-based reports. The Simulink®

Report Generator provides additional components to facilitate generation of reports from

Simulink models. You can also create custom components to handle content specific to your

application.

Using the Report Explorer, you interactively combined components to create a report setup

that specifies the content of a particular report or type of report. For general information

about working with components, see:

You used a combination of the following types of components in your report setup file,

based on your goals for the report.

Type of ComponentDescriptionInclude a title page, chapters, sections, paragraphs, lists, tables, and

other standard document structure elements.

Organize generated content into tables.

Display tables with property name/property value pairs for

objects.

Display tables with specified properties for objects.

Run child components a specified number of times. There are several looping

components, including logical loops and Handle Graphics® loops.Component Formatting

When you generate a report, in the Report Options dialog box, in the File format field

you specify the type of report output you want. For example, you can generate a report in

PDF, HTML, or Microsoft® Word format.

For each format, you can choose to apply styles from either of these style definition

sources:

An HTML or Word report conversion template

A Model Explorer style sheet for HTML, Word, or PDF.

The output format and the associated template or style sheet that you select for a

report determines most aspects of the formatting of the generated report. For example, a

report template or style sheet typically uses different font sizes for chapter titles and

section titles. For details, see Report Output Format.

Several components include properties that you can set to specify formatting details for

that specific instance of a component. For example, for the MATLAB Property

Table, you can specify formatting such as whether to display table borders or

the alignment of text in table cells.
