Theyreplied to my ticket:

“Hello,

you can not retrieve the coordinates of an item, you need to calculate them.You need to do the following:

1) Get the screenrows
CXTPReportScreenRows *pScreenRows =m_wndReport.GetSections()->GetAt(1)->GetRows()->GetScreenRows();

2) Find the item row in the screen rows
pScreenRows is a CArray, loop through the array to findpItem->CXTPReportRecord()

3) You then need to intersect the row rectangle with the column rectangle(pColumn->GetRect())

I didn’t try it yet.

Hello!
I've done the same job on the TaskPanel and it works pretty well.

I’ve used the methods: ret =pTaskPanelItem->GetInvalidateRect(); and ret =pTaskPanelItem->GetTextRect();

Still noidea how I can do the same with ReportControl component?

I’m beginning to work with CodeJock.

I’msoftware engineer and I’m in charge of software automation (simulate user actionon GUI).

I’m tryingto implement automation on CodeJock component: get the coordinates, textcaption…

So far, I can get the caption of the CXTPReportRecordItemcontrols.

What I’m trying to do now is to retrieve thecoordinates of that component.

I’m trying to use the “ virtual void (XTP_REPORTRECORDITEM_ARGS* pDrawArgs, CRect& rcItem); “  function, but I can’t make it works and I don’t find any explanation on the web.

I’ve got a loop that browses my records, and when it finds the good one, it tries to retrieve the coordinates:

        CRect ret;

        CXTPReportRecordItem *pItem =pReportRecord->GetItem(0);

        XTP_REPORTRECORDITEM_ARGS drawArgs;

        drawArgs.pControl = pReportCtrl;       

        drawArgs.pItem = pItem;

       pItem->GetCaptionRect(&drawArgs,ret);

But thisfunction returns incoherent data. It returns {top=0 bottom=0 left=17 right=0} for each row that has an icon in front of it, and tagRECT = {top=0 bottom=0 left=0 right=0} where there is no icon.

Can you help me on this one ?
