Save dialog file name

Is there a property either on the viewer or the report that I can set to prefill the save dialog's file name field? If not I'm sure I could intercept the save event and handle it that way, but I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything that already exists.

Hello,

Do you want to redefine our event and do your own?

Thank you.

I want everything to work like it currently does, but be able to specify the file name so that the user does not have to fill anything in when saving. If you don't have a property for that then could I please get an example of the current saving code. Thank you.

Hello,

In general it is prohibited in the Silverlight security policy to set a default file name in the SaveFileDialog, as it could be done in .NET. Here we make our class, which is responsible for saving a report.
Please see the attached file.

Thank you.

Thank you. Could you also post the code used to save a rendered report to a pdf? That's really the only one that the user will be allowed to do. Since setting the default filename is not allowed in Silverlight yet, I'll just ask if the user wishes to put the recommended filename in the clipboard before going into the save dialog.

Hello,

Call the InvokeReportSavePdf () method of StiSLViewerControl for the export to PDF.

We create an example for you, please see.

Thank you.
