individual clash results. For each clash that belongs to a group, an extra field, called Clash Group, can be
added to the report to identify it. To enable this functionality, select the Clash Group check box in the
Contents area.
NOTE If your test does not contain any clash groups, this box is not available.

your report.
The Report Type
Select the type of report from the drop-down list:
■ Current Test - creates a single report for the current test only.
■ All Tests (Combined) - creates a single report for all tests.
■ All Tests (Separate) - creates a separate report for each test.
The Report Format
Select the format of the report from the drop-down list:
■ XML - creates an XML file.
■ HTML - creates an HTML file.
■ Text - creates a TXT file.
■ As Viewpoints - creates a folder called [Test_Name] on the Saved Viewpoints dockable window; it contains
each clash saved as a viewpoint with an attached comment describing the clash.
NOTE When using XML, HTML, or Text format options consider the following:
■ By default, Clash Detective attempts to include a JPEG viewpoint image for each clash. Make sure to select
the Image check box in the Contents box, otherwise the report will contain broken image links.
■ For clash groups, the viewpoint image is the aggregate viewpoint for the group.
■ You need to create a separate folder for the report and its viewpoint images.
