1. I would like to generate a new report every time a new value is entered to the database. Is that possible? (or would it perhaps be possible to generate an event when a value is entered?)

Yes, I do that myself using an event and a macro that creates the report after a short 1 second pause (to allow the database to be closed, maybe not needed but anyway...). The configuration look like this:

2. What happens if the number of collected values during one logging interval is lower than the setting for "number of readings for the average calculation"? (One of my sensors is a bit unreliable so i dont really know how often it will send values...)

3. What is the "Use 10 minutes data point spread" supposed to do? If I uncheck it all of my reports becomes empty.

In a normal situation, a 10 minute interval is most of the time acceptable unless you really want to measure fast changes (but then you should also select a shorter period for the report itself).
I do not yet understand why your reports are empty. When I try it works as expected. I have saved a few readings with 10 min interval and then generated reports with and without the check box ticked. I do get the reports with data, only difference is the horizontal scale for the time, in the 10 min variant the scale is with 10 min, the 1 min is with 1 min and in the 1 min chart there are no lines between the data points.
What I could imagine is that you are logging at 10 min interval. If you create a 10 min report, you will see lines between the data points (unless there are gaps). If you instead select a 1 min report to be created, the lines will disappear since the report generator is seeing gaps in your data collection (expecting data every minute but only seeing every 10 min)

For example if I get 1 value per minute but set the logging interval to 10 minutes. Doesn't that mean that the report gets updated 10 times during 10 minutes, but the database only once?

To make it yourself, you write a python script that is capturing the events from the sensor and calculates the elapsed time from the first captured, then triggers the event to create a report when time is reached, then resets the first event captured and starts all over again

But I guess it will be hard to keep it in "sync" so I guess I just can do it every 10 minutes.
