- The overlayFormat is used for positioning location and/or warning icons on the map based on:
- The map itself (defined in mapFormat);
- X and Y coordinates of the required locations from the Locations.xml;
- Note that in case of numbers bigger than 999, it can be that the output may contain unwanted commas, e.g. width 1274 is printed in the reports as 1,274. In order to avoid this, it is recommended to use
instead ofCode Block {<position>, number, #}
.Code Block {<position>, number}
- Note that when providing a single quote within a snippet of javascript of OverlayFormat in a format field of the report XML configuration and the report appears to be missing this single quote character, this can be fixed by adding the additional escape character in the form of an additional single quote. A more verbose alternative is to put '' or ''.
