Several reports are available and can be selected from the list at left. Depending on the element type that the selected report has been configured to accept, it may not show any information.

The format of the report can be modified by selecting Tools > Format Options. The dialog below is opened.

The format options are stored as a user setting in the Windows Registry and must be manually set by each user on their computer. The settings shown above are recommended for CTDOT projects.
