Configure Report and Display Interaction

When you are working with a SigmafineHub Visualizer display and SigmafineHub Studio report, you have the ability to establish an interaction between the two applications, allowing you to work in an integrated manner.

For example, if want to localize the tank on the SFHub Visualizer Display, by clicking on the tank name showed in the report, you can configure the Backwards Lookup on the Table visual where the tank names are listed. Below are the steps to accomplish this.

  1. Open the Report.

    a. Go to or reopen SFHub Studio.

    b. Select the Project that contains your report.

    c. Click the Report block in the Studio Project [project name] dashboard, to open the report in the design area.
    We opened the new report we created; Material Inventory Report.

  2. Configure the Backwards Lookup.

    a. Move your mouse over the Table visual object that contains the "Tank" names.

    b. Click on the Edit icon, to open its configuration panel.

    c. Click the Data Source tab, if the panel is not already open.
