Make Edited Parts Visible

Hey,

we are using Stimulsoft version 2012.1.1300 and love the "Editable"-Funktion. Is there a way to make the editable parts visible, so that after generating a PDF-File the edited text is somehow highlighted while the rest of the text remains normal?

Hello,

Could you explain your issue in more details?
Also as a way you can highlight the necessary text in the Exporting event of the report.

Thank you.

Hey Aleksey,

There is the chance when "Editable" is set true to change a string in the preview of stimulsoft via Redaktor. When saved as pdf I would like to see what has been edited. Is this possible?

I added sample data.

Hello.

Unfortunately, there is no easy way to do this.
As a way you could try to save editable fields with SaveEditableFields() method of the Report after rendering.
Then you could get Editable fields in Exporting event with the same method, compare values and change border of changed fields.

Thank you.

I cant quite follow what you mean. Would you mind creating an example file?

Hello.

Sorry, but we don't have such sample. This task is too complicated and unusual.
The code depends on a specific report and could vary very much.

Thank you.
