How do I omit the quotes when writing Cellarray into PDF Report?

38 views (last 30 days)
I am using the code below to report a simpe Table to a PDF File. However there are always the quotes ( ' ' ) included in the report as seen in the Picture below. How can I get rid of the ' ' quotes?
cellarray1={'Hello';'Bye'};
cellarray2={'Hola';'Adios'};
import mlreportgen.report.*
import mlreportgen.dom.*
import mlreportgen.utils.*
makeDOMCompilable
t=table(cellarray1, cellarray2);
rpt = Report('Test','pdf');
open(rpt)
table=FormalTable(t);
add(rpt,table)
close(rpt)

hi
I don't use those reporting functions , but is there a chance that one of these has like writecell the option to remove quotes like this example :
writecell(new_line', 'out.txt',"QuoteStrings",0);

Hi,
Post-processing of the table entries can be done to remove the 'quotes' from the strings before adding the table to the report.
For example, strrep can be used to omit quotes.
cellarray1={'Hello';'Bye'};
cellarray2={'Hola';'Adios'};
import mlreportgen.report.*
import mlreportgen.dom.*
import mlreportgen.utils.*
makeDOMCompilable
t=table(cellarray1, cellarray2);
rpt = Report('Test','pdf');
open(rpt)
table=FormalTable(t);
% post processing
tableRows = table.Children(1);
for ii = 1:tableRows.NRows
row = tableRows.Children(ii);
for jj = 1:row.NEntries
rowEntry = row.Entries(jj);
% strrep to omit quotes
rowEntry.Children.Content = strrep(rowEntry.Children.Content, '''', '');
end
end
add(rpt,table)
close(rpt)
Hope this helps
