The Packages' STRATUS The Package's STRATUS Sheet tab displays targeted reports based on details of the selected Package. Some package details like assembly names, spool names, or item numbers can be added to the package before the report is genertedgenerated. Creating a Package STRATUS Sheet requires a 2-step process: 1) Create a Template and 2) Create a Report associated with the Template.

Enabling Higher Resolution Views on STRATUS Sheets

There is a hidden setting we have that controls the resolution of this output.  We had some browsers incapable of rendering higher resolution quality and therefore set the default value rather low to ensure success for all users.  We have noticed some of you like to generate some larger sheets where having higher resolution 3D view images might be nice. Here is how to change the setting by simply modifying a value in your web browser. 

1. In Chrome, I press F12 to open Developer tools, or you can access it from the menu as shown here (other browsers will have a similar option).

Examples

1.

2. Once the Developer tools window is opened, find the ‘Application’ tab, then Storage \ Local Storage \ https://www.gtpstratus.com and type gtp-stratus-max into the filter or just sort by Key value and locate the entry.

   Image Added

3. You can assign a larger value to the gtp-stratus-max-webgl-canvas-width-height, such as 10000 which is as high as we have tested.  If you start getting black boxes where the 3D views are, the value is too large.
