Title: How to set button height, background color/image when making Active Report
Post by: ricky_ru on 17 May 2013 06:10:02 AM
Dears,

As the title indicates, I can just set the icon for a button when designing an Active Report. There is no way to set button height, background color or image in the properties panel.  From my understanding, those properties are available for HTML component button. After the report is executed, the button in question may be rendered to html button. So, I think there may be a way to set those properties I just did not find. Does anybody have clue on this? Server side configuration or from sdk program?

Thanks,

Ricky Ru

Hi Ricky,

There is a workaround use a list report and use that like a button. Give the list report to pass the value in you controled objects. And all things in the list can be controlled from height, background, color. I don't know of any sdk based options for active reports.

Thanks,
RK

Thank you. That does make sense.
