I have a report created in Crystal (the version that comes with Visual Studio 2005) that contains an IFieldObject that I want to use to display some rich text. I have set the TextFormat of the IFieldObject to crRTFText, however when I run the report the textbox displays all the rtf markup rather than actually displaying the formatted text.
Is there some other settings that need to be changed in order for Crystal to display rich text?
What viewer are you using for your report? The HTML based viewers (WebForm and Java) may not support RTF output.
The ActiveX (definitely!) or WinForm (I think) viewers should support RTF in fields.
Have you tried rich formatting with html instead?

I just got the latest versions today for working with SSRS: SSRS 2019, Visual Studio Community 2019 (Version 4.8.03752) with SSRS Templates (Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Designers Version 15.0.1659.0).
I have a textbox with the report title which doesn't show in preview (both in header or body) and a textbox in footer with page counts that doesn't show. In the body I have a Table with a few columns that don't show values but do show the table cells. I noticed that values did show for returned records on first try but not for column headers; however, when I resized one cell, no values were shown at all for anything. Now, no text values show at all in Preview mode.
When I export report to PDF, everything shows (title, body, footer). This also works when I published to the Portal.
Here is what I tried without success:
Changed the font color to all texts to red but text values still don't show.
Deleted the report data files (.data) but text values still don't show.
Open the report file (.rdl) with Report Builder but text values still don't show.
So, it is in the editors (VS and Report Builder) that the problem only exists as rendering (PDF, Word) works and running in Report Portal works.
Thanks.
My issue was resolved by unticking the "Allow height to increase" check box for the text box.
enter image description here
I faced this same issue using the standalone Report Builder application, and I resolved it by placing the textbox inside a rectangle. From then on, it rendered in preview mode as expected. However, I'm not sure how that would affect auto-growth.
I'm creating a RDLC report using Visual Studio 2013 and I'm using a lot of TextBox containing formulas.
Is there a way to display some different name for this TextBox instend of just <<Expression>> ? This way is not very clear since all the fields seems the same. I see TextBox have a Description field but it doesn't work for me, it only does if I use Placeholders
For 20 years I have been able to copy and paste rich text fields from one lotus document to another. But now if I try to copy rich text from a Lotus Document (or another application) into a Rich Text Field in an Xpage, I cannot! Why? Maybe I am doing something wrong.
If I open up the document in the form that is the datastore then I can paste in my rich text contents, and then edit them via the Xpage. But this should be functionality that is available in Xpages.
It is in the XPiNC.
Domino supports 2 ways of storing the contents of a 'Rich Text' item in a Notes Document.
Domino's Native Rich Text format
MIME / Html - Which is used throughout the internet and mail systems.
There is a setting on the Item Properties which determines what format
'Store contents as Mime/html'.
The XPages control only supports MIME / HTML.
When you load a document's Rich Text Item that is stored as the Native Rich Text Format, it converts it from Native to MIME / HTML upon loading the document so that it can be used with the XPages control.
This explains why pasting it into the document and then loading via XPages works, as you are pasting in the Native rich text, but it converts it when opening.
If you try to copy from Notes Client (Native Format) to XPages it will only support whatever format that CKEditor will accept for pasting and I don't think Domino Native Rich Text is one of them.
This is still the same whether using Xpinc or Web browser
If you are going to be doing anything fancy with XPages Rich Text it is worth learning about MIME and how it works as it will save you some headaches.
I am currently in a situation where I have a sub form inside a page of a PDF Template, with a group of fields wrapped inside the sub form.
I am using Adobe Lifecycle designer ES2 to create my templates.
Is it possible using ABCPDF tool(ABCpdf .NET Pro 7), to hide/unhide the sub form, along with wrapped fields through the code.
I am using C#, .NET (4.0), visual studio 2010.
Adobe Lifecycle Designer uses a different type of form than ABCPDF 7 uses.
See this description. Towards the bottom we have this:
You can use Acrobat to edit forms using the Advanced Editing tools available under the Tools menu.
However, if you choose items from the Forms menu or toolbar, then you will probably find that you end up editing your form in Adobe Designer rather than Acrobat.
Adobe Designer is an application which comes with Acrobat Pro. It uses PDF as an output medium. However, the way that Designer operates means that forms created by Designer are fundamentally different from forms created by Acrobat.
For example, an Acrobat created form typically contains a background and then a set of fields. The fields operate separately from the background.
Adobe Designer-created forms do not make this distinction. They use a separate data store to specify the fields. The PDF content is merely the visible rendition of this field specification. The underlying field specification is made up of chunks of XML embedded in the PDF.
(The word "Livecycle" was added to the product name after this was written, when it was still called "Adobe Designer".)
The forms supported by ABCpdf, also known as AcroForms or eForms, do not even have a concept of "subform" and so what you are talking about is impossible with ABCpdf.
I'm using Crystal reports 13 on visual studio 2010.
I have a report that is displayed in a CrystalViewerReport control and almost everything is ok except that with some details the text is not wraping correctly and some of the content is displayed out of the field area.
This only occurs in the viewer because if I export it as PDF the text is ok and no information is overlapped. So I would like to know if there is some configuration that I should apply on the control.
Thanks.
For Wrap your Text, Right Click on the textobject ,choose the formate object,Check the can grow Textbox,THus you can wrap your text.
