It will be available after release.

Thank you.

Hello.

Due to the Silverlight restrictions it's impossible to open file in the native version.
So this feature impossible to be implemented.

Thank you.

Hi,

Is it at least possible to have "StiOptions.Engine.GlobalEvents.GetDrillDownReport" event? If this event is available the user can provide the required report for your engine using his desired method. For example currently I download the Silverlight version of the report compiled into an assembly from the web server and then I load the report definition from the downloaded assembly in the client. So for drilldown reports if the mentioned event was raised I could download the assembly and load the report definition from it and provided it to your engine to be able to render it. Using this way there is no need to load the report definition from the file system.

Thanks.

Hello.

Due to Silverlight restrictions native version has no access to the file system. So it's impossible to use Drilldown report.
But could do it in the Client/Server version.

Thank you,

Hi,

Yes, I realized that the native version has no access to the file system.But what I meant is that loading from file system is not the only way to load the report. In the Windows version it is possible to use "StiOptions.Engine.GlobalEvents.GetDrillDownReport" event to load DrillDown report dynamically. In previous versions of your Silverlight Report, this event was available but was not fired.
If you implement this event, it is possible for the developer to load the DrillDown report using any mechanism he desires(other than using file system which is not possible).

Thanks.

Hello.

We're working on the next release and have no enough time to add this feature.
We'll learn what we can do in this direction after release which will be released in the end of September.

Thank you.
