MATLAB: How to Join Tables in report generator

join tablesMATLABMATLAB Report Generatormlreportgen.domreport generatortable

If the code goes like this:

import mlreportgen.dom.*
tablecontent1 = { ... };
table1 = Table(tablecontent1);
...
tablecontent2 = { ... };
table2 = Table(tablecontent2);
...

Assuming 2 tables have same colomn number and definitively can adjust some other properties.

How can join them into one single table?

Thanks!

Hi John,

You can combine the cell array content and then create the DOM Table:

import mlreportgen.dom.*
tablecontent1 = { ... };
...
tablecontent2 = { ... };
...
% Combine the table content cell arrays and then create DOM Table
tableContent = [tablecontent1; tablecontent2];
table = Table(tableContent);
...

Thanks,

Rahul

MATLAB: Report Generator: How to change horizontal text alignment for individual columns of the same table

The Style property of TableCopSpec can be used to apply any format to one or more adjacent table columns. The below script will make the text to be left aligned in the first column, centered in the second column, and right aligned in the third column.

import mlreportgen.dom.*
rpt = Document('MyReport','pdf');
table = FormalTable(magic(3));
table.Width = '3in';
table.Border = 'solid';
table.ColSep = 'solid';
table.RowSep = 'solid';
groups(1) = TableColSpecGroup();
specs(1) = TableColSpec();
specs(1).Style = { HAlign('left') };
specs(2) = TableColSpec();
specs(2).Style = { HAlign('center') };
specs(3) = TableColSpec();
specs(3).Style = { HAlign('right') };
groups(1).ColSpecs = specs;
table.ColSpecGroups = groups;
append(rpt, table);
close(rpt);
rptview(rpt.OutputPath);

MATLAB: Can individual ColSep(‘solid’) & RowSep(‘solid’) be defined in mlreportgen.dom.(Formal)Table

Hi John,

Yes, borders can be defined for each table entry individually. This can be done by adding the Border format to that particular table entry. Doing this will override any border settings coming from the table borders, rowsep, or colsep for that entry.

Below is a sample script:

% Create a report
import mlreportgen.dom.*;
d = Document('myreport','pdf');
open(d);
% Create a table with solid borders. Also specify solid row and column separators.
t = FormalTable(magic(4));
t.Border = 'solid';
t.ColSep = 'solid';
t.RowSep = 'solid';
% Override borders for a particular table entry (second entry in second row)
te22 = t.Body.entry(2,2);
te22.Style = [te22.Style {Border('double','red','2pt')}];
% Append table to the report
append(d,t);
% Close and view the report
close(d);
rptview(d);
