Reports involving a large volume of data can take a long time to generate, request the ability to export a report to a text document to avoid this.

Models involving a large amount of data (say, for example, those having many thousands of plate elements) can take a long time to generate. Once the analysis is complete and you click on "Report", the rendering of the report actually doesn't take too long (a few minutes.). But if one adds any of the plate results tables (plate center stresses, plate global moments, etc.) the "creating" stage proceeds very slowly and consumes most of the computers resources. It can take hours or sometimes freezes and won't finish at all.


It used to be possible to export the report to a text document to get around this issue. Request that this functionality be brought back.
