Hello,

I am trying to add new variable ( type of image ) from code behind. So i can use that variable in silverlight designer. But it doesn't work until now. I am using the following code :

StiDesignecontrol = new StiSLDesignerControl();
StiReport report = new StiReport();

if (byteArray != null)
{
report.Load(byteArray);
}
if (logodata != null)
{
BitmapImage bitmap = new BitmapImage();
bitmap.SetSource(new MemoryStream(logodata));

StiImage image = new StiImage();
image.Image = bitmap;

StiVariable logo = new StiVariable("My Variables", "Logo", "Logo", typeof(System.Drawing.Bitmap),"",false);//new StiVariable("My variables", "Logo", "Logo", "", typeof(System.Drawing.Bitmap), "", false, false, false);
logo.ValueObject = image;
report.Dictionary.Variables.Add(logo);
report.Dictionary.Synchronize();
}


report.Render();
StiDesignecontrol.Report = report;

Hello,

Your code is correct. Variables for the Image type did not work correctly. We have made changes that will be available tomorrow in prerelease build.

Thank you.

Thanks for you reply,

I will wait the coming prerelease.

Hello,

when i added an image in silverlight using the last prerelease (Stimulsoft Reports.Silverlight 2011.04.12 Trial), I notice that it doesn't work in the preview( i cant see the image, but just this "System.window.media.imaging.bitmapimage". ( preview here means 'StiSLDesignerControl' preview ).

However, it works good when i save mrt and open it using the designer. As a result i think that the image is loaded in the variable but there is something wrong when try to preview it in silverlight viewer!

Hello,

I create a variable in code behind like this :

BitmapImage bitmap = new BitmapImage();
bitmap.SetSource(new MemoryStream(logodata));
StiVariable logo = new StiVariable("My variables", "Logo", "Logo", "", typeof(System.Drawing.Bitmap), "", false, false, false);
logo.ValueObject = bitmap;
report.Dictionary.Variables.Add(logo);

But when i drag this variable to report area ( in designer), it doesn't appear same as when add new sti image !!
I mean it doesn't work in preview!

But,
If i add new sti image in designer, and assign imagedata = {Logo}, then it will work!

My question, how i can add sti variable of type image, then user can drag and drop it, so image will be shown in preview ??

I hope if you send me a sample.
