Hi,

Currently, we are using our defined function to display date on ordinal format e.g. 21st January 2009 or 25th January 2009 (this works OK).

But, is there a Stimulsoft-defined format specifier for this?

Next, to display the date and ordinal parts -st, -nd, -rd, -th on superscript, I used a Rich Text Field-Editor.

But, is there a way to display the date using a Text field and setup to superscipt text or parts of texts?

Thanks!

Sorry, we support only formats which are available in .Net Framework. You can use predefined formats or add your own formatting string. In the context menu of the StiText component just select "Text Format" menu item.

In the latest prerelease build you can use HTML tags for this. There is a list of available HTML tags:

AllowHTMLTags property of the text component must be set in 'true'.

Thank you.

Hi,

Okay, we can just use our own function for the ordinal display.

Superscript display: Good job.
The HTML tag is working OK! :biggrin:

Cheers
