In the picture, it shows my problem: I need to display the values of a column from a table in apex. Currently all the values are being displayed as a text field. But, I need to display only a few as text fields and others as just a display value without allowing someone to edit it. I've been looking into it, but I'm stuck.. There is a conditional display area, but not sure if that is where I need to go for the solution. That section seems to just limit what values get displayed not change the display format based on the values, but that latter is what i need. Thanks if you know or can point me in the right direction!
In the Item properties , go to advanced section
in custom attributes mention readonly=’readonly’-- this will make that item as display only.

I am new to BIRT can you guys help me in this, my requirement is like, I have two fields PMNUM and CHANGEID, I need to show these two fields in master page footer based on third column value TYPE. If TYPE is PM I need to show PMNUM and if TYPE is CM I need to show CHANGEID.
I followed this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lw_k1qHY_gU&t=4s video to get PMNUM in the footer. But the problem here is if I hide PMNUM From the table, the PMNUM from the footer also hiding. Please guide me on how to solve this problem and share some guide for BIRT events.
You can add some script inside your table and assign PNUM and CHANGEID to global variables.
In the page footer reference to the global variables instead of the table's values that in your case may be hidden.

Report table layout
I need it to out put like the Excel image ideally if possible, I've found the value id's but i'm stumped as to how if I can at all display them in the columns I've labelled.
It looks like you need to use a matrix control in your report. It will display your values in a pivot view like Excel.

I have been desperately trying to figure out how to take a column, customer name, and be able make a drop down list that filters the entire pages visualizations so that when you have a specif customer selected it filters everything.
I think I'm going down the right path my creating a property type string and setting it to unique values in that customer name column, but cant seem to figure out what to do next. Even if i have to set it individually for each visualization that would be fine, but i cant seem to get this to work.
Can someone help me figure this out?
I'm on spotfire 7.0 if that matters. Thanks
Thank you in advance.
#TPLEE - In order to apply filter to the visualization from the selected drop down, you have to insert the below case statement in 'Limit data using expression' section of the visualization properties as shown below.
Right click on the visualization and go to properties.
Click on edit as shown in the picture and insert the below case
statement and click 'Ok'.
Note: 'YourCOLUMNName' will be your column name from the data table that you are using and ${CustomerName} is your property control name
case
when "${CustomerName}"=[YourCOLUMNName] then true
when "${CustomerName}"="" then true
else false end
I have a report with many tables (tablixes?), in which I need to hide all rows that don't have a value in the 2nd column:
I can do this by right clicking on each row
and setting an expression for the visibility of the row that depends on a value appearing in the field of the 2nd column, e.g.
=IIF((Fields!MyField4.Value = ""), True, False)
But the problem is that my report has over 1000 of these rows! It will take a very long time given that each field has a specific name! I can modify the Xml, but this will also take a while. I am currently writing some code, which uses XDocument, to achieve this.
Are there any faster ways that anyone can think of? Maybe something from the designer, or some VB code? Everywhere on the internet seems to suggest right clicking one row at a time.
In the Designer, select all of the rows (using your Shift or Ctrl key), and use the Properties pane in VS/BIDS to change them all at once. There is a Hidden property there, and you can choose Expression from the dropdown in it. From there, you can apply the IIF to all rows.
Of course, I am assuming all of the visibility is based on the exact same expression for each row. If not, then the answer is no. Unless, you want to start doing some copy/paste stuff in the RDL XML, which I do not recommend.
The Customer ID column is setup to use autocomplete. The autocomplete values concatenates various customer information together, to aid the user in selecting the correct one. Once selected, the Customer ID is put into the grid.
I cannot figure out how to make the autocomplete popup wider so that it fits the concatenated information.
This is what it needs to look like, which I achieved by tinkering with the elements after they were rendered. Ideally, it would be just wide enough to fit the content.
Try using select2-editor from
https://github.com/trebuchetty/Handsontable-select2-editor
The select2 editor automatically expands to the width of the column text.
