How to Fix The DATUM Report That Shows One Line

If your VTube-LASER shows one line of numbers in the datum grid, then the most likely problem is a changed iteration variable name. Follow these steps to solve the problem.

There are a variable name value inside the template file that needs to changed. 1 Go to the Reports menu in LASER mode. 2 Single-click on the datum report row. 3 Click on the Template tab above. 4 Click on the Edit Selected button. This should load the template into the Notepad++ editor.

5 In Notepad++, search for this line: <vtube_iterate section=XYZTODATUM> 6 Change it to: <vtube_iterate section=XYZDATUM> 7 Save the template file to disk. 8 Try viewing the report again.

Templates Lists for VTube-STEP and VTube-LASER Are Different

Remember that VTube-STEP and VTube-LASER keep separate lists of templates. They can both share templates, but if you want a report in both VTube modes, then you will need to import in both the STEP and LASER Report menus. If you do this, then VTube will ask if you want to overwrite the template file during the second import. This is ok to do - because the template file is identical for both modes. If this is the case, then press "Continue" during the second import when the warning message appears.
