Title: Dynamic column in report studio
Post by: Mita on 13 Jun 2016 06:10:52 AM
Hi All,

Can any body tell me what's the difference if we apply the style variable to column title instead of column body in case of dynamic column showing?

will it make any difference?

Thanks,
Sasmita

depends if you are using the same style variable for the title and the columns.
What is it exactly that you want to achieve?

If you are hiding the column title based on a condition, only the title will be hidden.  It will misalign the column headers and column bodies from that point on and the last column body will appear orphaned, having no title.

You'll want to conditionally hide both the column title and column body.  Alternatively, you may be able to conditionally hide the column.  (Select it using the ancestor tool.)
