CheckBox request

edited March 2015 in General
I am reprinting a request that I originally made 9/8/2010 and resubmitted
5/26/2011 and 8/25/2012.

a) attach a check box to a line item node when the report is sent to the
screen device during preview.
b) the value of the check box could be set to true or false when node is
generated at preview
c) allow the node check box to be "unchecked" or "checked" at preview then
d) when the report is printed allow only the report items with a "checked"
checkbox to be printed.

This would essentially replace the print dialog print "page range" with the
scenario where report items could be individually selected for printing
based on the "checked" property of the item node.

Will you please take this suggestion under consideration. I think this
functionality would be of significant benefit to a significant subset of the
RBuilder user base.

TIA

John

    Hi John,

    Thanks for the feedback.

    Adding interactive updatable components to the graphics device
    (preview/viewer) is a major undertaking and would require (close to) a
    complete re-design of the current implementation.

    That being said, we highly value your opinion and will continue to
    consider a feature like this for a later release of ReportBuilder.

    Best Regards,
