Text component - Alias property

jmhb · Post by **jmhb** » Mon Sep 14, 2009 5:38 am

Hello,

in the description of the alias property from the text component is stated that it "gets or sets a text that will be shown instead of a component name".
If I provide a value for the alias and do an export (for example csv or xml), the alias will not be considered at all. Instead the component name will
be used (for example "text1"). Is there a way to take the alias's value into account?

Best regards

Hello,

We added new static options for using aliases in exports to Csv/Dbf/Xml.
Now you can use following code, for example:

Code: Select all

StiOptions.Export.Csv.UseAliases = true;
StiOptions.Export.Dbf.UseAliases = true;
StiOptions.Export.Xml.UseAliases = true;

Patch will be available in next prerelease build from 21-Sep-2009.

Thank you.
