At the moment, the HTML report does not consider label expressions in its implementation. See also https://github.com/archimatetool/archi/issues/864

I looked into this. The code for rendering folder label expressions pertains to rendering the folder's child objects in the context of the Models Tree. The HTML report doesn't know about that context and only knows about the object's name. I tried applying the label expression to the object's name before rendering the report but that changed the name everywhere, including in views. This will need a deeper investigation.

@Phillipus, I think what you describe may be the usecase I was considering. Using the name element to reflect the context of a diagram and the viewpoint to highlight/address a concern? I could re-use (duplicate) the same diagram (and therefore its name) and set a new Viewpoint. I can decide to leave the faded elements in or not and add what is appropriate to address that concern?
