| The simplest way to see QuSheet in action is to download and modify one of the examples on the web site. |
| This particular one here is the Builder example, a project with two output files, known by QuSheet as Sheets, one for the customer's quote and another for the builder's accounts. |
| Each sheet has entries which are basically line by line pointers to the Headings and Data which should appear, in order, in the output. Every line can actually specify two of these - one to be shown as a result and the other as its explanation. |
| Headings themselves are found within the Workbook part of QuSheet, and look pretty similar to the sheet's entries, with the addition that you can use the Apply column to make calculations from your headings and data. |
| Data is stored in Tables, which use Fields to define their columns. |
| It is possible, with QuSheet, to set things up in such a way that the output is entirely driven by this data. In other words, once you have done the work of defining how a sheet is to be produced, all you need to do to produce new sheets is change the data in your table. |
| For example, here I could add some plumbing work to my roof conversion, simply by adding a new line with the required values. |
| Selectors are used in conjunction with fields to set this data-driven behaviour up. |
| Generation Parameters and Styles control how the output is displayed. |
| Once all of your changes have been made, you can return to your sheet and use the Generate button to produce the output. This output file will appear in the same directory as your input / project file and will have the HTML extension so that it can be viewed by any browser. |
| Once generation has completed, the View button can be used as a shortcut method to invoke your favourite browser on the output. |
