Can I output 3D lathe tool projection adjustment to ActiveReports?

[AlexRPal]

I am trying to fine tune a lathe setup sheet such that it spits out static tool projections automatically. There is obviously a value in Mastercam (2023) for tool projection adjustment, I just can't figure out what the datafield is for it in ActiveReports, or if there even is one. I've tried 'PROJECTION', 'Projection', 'ToolProjection', 'ToolAdjustment', etc. My current work-around is to use a PDF editor and manually entire that field. This kind of feels like it defeats the purpose of having an automatically generated setup sheet though. So, if anyone has figured this out I'd appreciate some insight!

PS: Based on an older post on the forum I downloaded an XML viewer to try to find this data in the XML file, but the XML file that gets generated looks like it only contains the exact data that I'm currently using in the ActiveReport. It doesn't retain everything else (incl. datafields that I know work, but am not using.). If there is some XML default file somewhere that shows the path to all of the data I would scour that for the info I'm looking for, but I cannot find such a thing.

Not a way through Active reports since this is not really tracked that way. Best way is to build them and then make screen shots you add to your setup sheets.

Is there possibly a way you could have a separate viewsheet defined for each tool, and then automate your activereport to print a page of each viewsheet? As long as you label with notes correctly I feel like that could be a decent workaround. I guess every time you adjust your stickout/tool/etc you'd have to go and manually edit the viewsheet,.. so I guess it's a bit annoying either way.

I make them separate view sheets normally, but an automated way to output them not sure of one.
