#* Due to a security feature of Chrome, the report will not be properly styled. Please use another browser.
#* You may also open the report using a regular text editor. Note that the report will not be styled in that case.
# Reports will be stored under '''LocalState/Reports'''. You may open them again from this folder at any time, or discard them. == Styling reports ==The user can completely customize the look and layout of reports in any way they please. We have provided a default stylesheet that can be overwritten or edited. The stylesheet uses the XSLT language, which converts XML data into HTML, which is interpreted by web browsers. XSLT should be uses mostly for creating templates or "containers" for XML elements, while additional (external) CSS files can be used to handle (visual) styling. This is also the approach we used for the default stylesheet. === Editing the stylesheet ===Our default stylesheet will be located under '''LocalState/Reports/Stylesheet'''. If the stylesheet file or folders do not exist yet, our default stylesheet will be copied to this location upon app startup. The file will never be overwritten again by the default stylesheet, so it is safe to customize the contents of this file to your liking. To revert your changes quickly, you can simply delete the file again, and it will be regenerated once a new report is created, or the app is restarted. To edit the stylesheet, simply open it with your favorite code editor or notepad. We suggest that you familiarize yourself with the XSLT (as well as HTML) syntax and functions before trying to make changes to this file. You can find an introductory tutorial to XSLT [https://www.w3schools.com/xml/xsl_intro.asp here].
