Dynamically Enable/Disable a Report Band (object)

[ybrit]

How can you enable or disable a report object prior to render with source code?

Like disable/enable a detail field or GroupHeader/Footer.

The goal is to have one report spec that covers a few display options.

Hello.

You could do this in different ways.
You could find a component in the report and change its property.

Code: Select all

var gHeader = report.getComponentByName("GroupHeaderBand1");
gHeader.enabled = false;

As other way you could do it in BeforePrint event.

Thank you.

Thank you.

How do you refer to a field in a component such as a field in DataBand1 .. is this the name in the design properties?

[HighAley]

Hello.

Yes, this is a name of the component.
We should notice that this way you get component from report template but not from the rendered report.

Thank you.
