I am setting values of fields in an abcpdf 10 document, then returning it as a file to the browser. But it is creating some sort of placeholder, even though the true value is there. The first image is how the field looks originally with the wrong value; the second is when the field is clicked and has the right value.
PDF without the field clicked
PDF with the field clicked and correct value
These images are from Chrome. The document renders correctly in Acrobat.
I'm using Pentaho Report Designer Version: 8.0.0.0-28.
When no parameter is selected, I keep seeing NULL everywhere or just blank fields.
It seems that I have to set default values in each parameter.
I don't want anything to display if nothing is selected, and at the same time I don't want to have NULL and blank fields.
Any suggestions on what can I do instead?
I am trying to create a script in Filemaker, so that when one field contains a specific value it will go to another field, select the text and change that field text color, just on that specific record. Is there an applescript method to change selected text from one color to another?
(I run a small B&B and am trying to get fields to change to red when the reservation cancelled field is selected.)
You can do this by applying Conditional Formatting to the text field when in Layout mode; no script required.
Say I have a data field (call it Results.MyString) that looks like this in a text box in my report:
Some text here for all to read.
Also, say that I have a data field (call it Results.MyParam) that has this value:
here
Is there a way to conditionally format the text box so that it would search Results.MyString for any matches to Results.MyParam and change the color of them?
The end result would have the word "here" be a different color (ie Red), but the rest of the text in the text box be Black.
Selected Text is what you are looking for.
Two parts to the answer. 1. Hook into the code window by opening the Report parameters Code tab. Place your functions in the code window. 2. You can make a textbox expression placeholder react to HTML tags by enabling that property on the expression placeholder. (You can Google 'ssrs placeholder expression' for specifics.)
Your function could parse the text, find target string, dynamically surround the target with the appropriate HTML color tags and return the expression to the textbox.
I am using SSRS with Visual Studio 2010. I have a cell pulling to a footer text box using the value:
=ReportItems!GuarantorBalance.Value
I CANNOT format the cell in the footer with the currency format. I tried every which way to format the text box but it never pulls the currency value. If I try to format the account number in the footer it will format with a currency value. Any ideas why the GuarantorBalance won't format with a currency value? Is there any other techniques I can try besides using the preset values in report designer?
Have you tried an explicit format for the value using an expression, like:
=FormatCurrency(ReportItems!GuarantorBalance.Value)
