Conditionally hiding content

aferguson · Post by **aferguson** » Wed Jan 20, 2010 3:21 pm

Is there an easy way to c and alonditionally hide an object (e.g. a Panel and all of its children) based on some condition? The page rendering events seem like a natural place to do it, as the "Conditions" area seems only to be able to affect the "enabled" property. Are "Printable" and visibility equivalent? If so, in one of the page rendering events might you do something like:

Code: Select all

panelName.Printable = false;

?

Thanks.

Hi

Please use Enabled property in the BeforePrintEvent for hiding elements completely (in viewer and when printing).

'Printable' property allows to disable printing components on paper. Components will be shown in viewer, even if Printable == false.

Thank you.

Hello,
While printing the barcode code39 I need to hide barcode if the scannable value is null or empty. Can we do this using stimulsoft designer tool ?
If yes then please provide the solution.

Hello, satishb.

You must use "Highlight Condition" and set "Component is Enabled" to false.

Thanks Kubekin Yuriy.
I had looked into your solution but, I need to hide the barcode(UI of barcode) conditionally on report if the value against that barcode is null or empty using stimulsoft designer tool.
I still facing the same problem. Please provide the solution for that if any.
Thanks

Hi satishb,

You also can hide the BarCode component from the code before rendering the report. In the screenshots below I modified the Work With Report Components sample project:
https://www.stimulsoft.com/en/samples/w ... components
This can be done with barcodes or any other component
This is the line of code I added to hide/show the BarCode1 component in the page:

Code: Select all

((StiBarCode)stiReport1.Pages["Page1"].Components["BarCode1"]).Enabled = string.IsNullOrEmpty(textBox1.Text);

: Add BarCode1 Component in the Designer and Save the Report; BarCode1.PNG (94.02 KiB) Viewed 10215 times

: Click Preview and the BarCode1 won't print, because there is a text in the textbox; BarCode2.PNG (40.83 KiB) Viewed 10215 times

: Remove Text, click Preview and BarCode1 will be printed; BarCode3.PNG (49.08 KiB) Viewed 10215 times
