Hi, I was wondering how to edit the preview text? I'm getting stuck on how the preview item interacts with the false column that it's supposely pointing back to.

Thanks

Hi,

I'm afraid this piece of functionality isn't available in Report Control yet.

Really? So would you say that the documentation is not accurate?

here is a screen shot of the help file:

Well, if you mean editing by user, then setup should look like below:


...
ReportControl.AllowEdit = True
ReportControl.PreviewMode = True
...
Record.PreviewItem.Editable = True
'and if needed:
Record.PreviewItem.CreateEditOptions
Record.PreviewItem.EditOptions....

You can use access to PreviewItem property as described below in the documentation. Just in case I've just tested it and it works fine.

But if you mean start editing using ReportControl.EditItem method, that will be a problem -- that's what I meant.

Awesome... I new it was something simple that I was missing, I wasn't setting the previewitem.editable = true. Now if I can figure out how to Extend the tree lines when using the preview mode... i'll be set. Thanks
