Editing the Power Point template
3DCS will create a template of the Power Point report for the software to easily add images, Analysis results, and more. Users can edit the template as well, adding a background or theme, company logos, moving Move, Tolerance and Measure images or moving the tables for the Analysis results.
Requirements:
•The template (dcstemplate.ppt) needs to remain the same name and in the same location.
•Deleting any of the pages or required image holders may result in missing images or text.
If a user needs to modify the Power Point template, navigate to the AppData folder: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\DCS\DCS_V5. The file is called dcstemplate.ppt.
Open the template in Power Point, and if changing or saving the template, it is required to save the report as dcstemplate.ppt and in the same folder. Otherwise, 3DCS will create a new template and not use the customized report.
