No text on StiText created from code

[mrapi]

Hi
I'm using stimulsoft 2024.1.3 with NET 4.7
I've created a report with a title band (ReportTitleBand1) then save it as compiled dll (Report1.dll)
then from cod I've added a StiText:

Code: Select all

        Dim wRp = StiReport.GetReportFromAssembly("d:\NET4\Report1.dll")
        Dim tx = New StiText(New RectangleD(0, 0, 5, 0.5))
        tx.Text = "My text"
        tx.HorAlignment = StiTextHorAlignment.Center
        tx.Name = "HeaderText"
        tx.Brush = New StiSolidBrush(Color.LightGreen)
        DirectCast(wRp.GetComponents("ReportTitleBand1"), StiReportTitleBand).Components.Add(tx)


        wRp.Render()
        wRp.Show()

report is shown but there is no text on create StiText just a ligh green rectangle
what I'm doing wrong?
thanks

Hello,

It is not possible, to add components in the already compiled report, you should add it in the template, and then compile it.

Thank you.

Hello,

You are welcome.

Hello,

Please try this:

1) load the original mrt-file
_rep = new StiReport();
_rep.Load(filename);
2) load compiled report
_rep.CompiledReport = StiReport.GetReportFromAssembly(pathToAssembly);
3) add your components
4) _rep.Render()
5) _rep.Show()

Hello,

Thank you for the information.

Hi
I'm only deploying compiled report file,in this case _rep.Load(filename) would not work for me

thanks
