Adding another attribute into the report template

DataHub uses report template code from its report template to create the layout and detail of a DHLink Summary report. You can find the report template file in <install_root>\plugins\com.nomagic.datahub.magicdraw\data\templates\relation.html. You can edit the report template file with any text editors to add more information to the report template. In this scenario, you want to add another attribute to the report template.
