Hi,

I need to change the text size in run time with a value obtained from a datapad

For example

Text1.Fontsize = {pa_Datapad.ValueSize}

The problem is that I find the correct syntax (if you can assign the size )
What event should include the code? ( I guess before printing the page).

Thank you for your help.

Hello,

As a way, you can use the Condition(in which set the necessary font size) for the Text component for this task.

Thank you.

Hello Aleksey

Not, I need the text size from a variable. The value of this size should be obtained from a datapad .

Thank you

Hello,

As a way you can use the following code in the BeforePrint event:
Text1.Font = new System.Drawing.Font("Arial", pa_Datapad.ValueSize);

Thank you.

Hello and thanks again

I write the following code in BeforePrint Event of the Text1 object

Text1.font=new System.Drawing.Font("Arial",pa_infCertificateAttendance.Ds_CertificateText1Size);

I get the following error:
1. The error of compilation
The error of compilation is found in the 'BeforePrint' event of the 'Text1' component:
'Stimulsoft.Report.Components.StiText' no contiene una definición de 'font' ni se encontró ningún método de extensión 'font' que acepte un primer argumento de tipo 'Stimulsoft.Report.Components.StiText' (¿falta una directiva using o una referencia de ensamblado?)

Sorry, i select UI Language English but part of the message is displayed in Spanish.

A rough translation would be:
1. The error of compilation
The error of compilation is found in the 'BeforePrint' event of the 'Text1' component:
'Stimulsoft.Report.Components.StiText' not have a definition of 'font' and no extension method 'font' accepting a first argument of type 'Stimulsoft.Report.Components.StiText' (¿lack a directive using or a assembly reference?)

Hello,

In your code, please write Text1.font where the word Font must be in the capital letter.

The line must be Text1.Font=new System.Drawing.Font("Arial",pa_infCertificateAttendance.Ds_CertificateText1Size);

Does this help you solve the problem?

OK Andrew, it´s perfect
Thank you very much
But i have more problems.

Where I can find documentation about the methods and properties that can be applied to these and other objects ?
For example , I need to dynamically change also the color of the text object or the color of an object panel.

Thanks again for all your help .

Regards.

Hello,

Unfortunately, there is not documentation by the similar task.
The simple way - is a create necessary report in the standalone designer, set the necessary properties then open Code tab and use the similar code.

Thank you.
