Properties Tab, Multiple Selection Dialog Box (Report Builder)

  • Article

Makes it possible for you to set certain attributes on multiple selected report controls in the Report Designer or Label Designer. The attributes that can be set include protection flags, and the Print When (conditional printing) expression.

  • Apply these protection settings to the selected objects
    Specifies whether protection settings will be applied to the currently selected report controls.
  • When in PROTECTED mode
    Exposes logical flags that specify how the selected report controls will be able to be modified in the Report Designer when in protected mode.
  • Apply these conditions to the selected objects upon saving
    Specifies whether the conditional print expression will be applied to each of the currently selected report controls.
  • Remove line if blank
    Specifies that the report engine may contract the report band vertically if the evaluation of the report control results in no renderable content, and no other renderable controls occupy the empty space on either side of the control.
  • Print only when expression is true
    Provides space for typing a logical expression that will be evaluated at report run time to control whether the control is rendered in the output. You may click the ellipsis (…) button to bring up the Expression Builder dialog box to assist you in writing the logical expression.
