Custom Save Options

Hi, I'm currently looking at integrating the Reports.Fx into an application. I am using the Demo version at this time, we plan on purchasing the product today so this will change soon. I would like to know if it is possible to create a custom save dialog? My use case is to allow the user to design a report and have them save it to the server. I would like a custom save dialog that will allow them this option where I take over, prompt for a couple pieces of data and then send the report to the DB.
Thank you,
Todd

Hello, Todd.
You could handle a Save Event and show the custom save dialog.
Please, look at the 06_DesignerSaveEvent sample project which you could find in our distributive.
Thank you.

Thanks for the information. I am trying to add an event listener to the designer in Actionscript but not having any luck. If I use the MXML tag like the example it works fine but I really want the dialog version to show.
Code: Select all
private function onSaveReport(event:StiDesignerEvent) {
trace("Save Report");
}
protected function openDesignerHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
var designer:StiDesignerFx = new StiDesignerFx();
designer.initialize();
var report:StiReport = new StiReport();
designer.report = report;
designer.addEventListener(StiDesignerEvent.SAVE_REPORT, onSaveReport);
var database:StiMySqlDatabase = new StiMySqlDatabase("ssievents", "", "Server=localhost;Port=3306;Database=ssievents;Uid=ssievents;Pwd=testing;", false);
report.dictionary.databases.clear();
report.dictionary.databases.add(database);
report.designDialog(null, "TEST");
}

Thank you!
This works well, I'm now hitting my callback method.
