Report Designer Question

edited February 2012 in General
If this has been asked already, sorry. I did a search and did not find
anything. Basically I was wondering if there was a way to do the
following (Delphi 2010, ReportBuilder 11.08 Enterprise) :

In the report designer (editor), if I turn off the saving completely (ie
IniNone option), can I write a Delphi unit that will set the designer
layout options the way I want it. In other words, turn off some
portions of the editor, turn on others.

Thanks

    Here is an rbWiki example of How To Customize the Designer Menu and
    Toolbars, I think it might help you accomplish what you need...

    I saw that, what i wanted to do was set certain options, for example the
    standard components, draw components, nudge, etc to visible. How would
    I do that based on the example?

    The example shows how to access the menu and toolbars. So based on that I
    think you can accomplish what you describe. I recommend downloading the
    example code and spend time with it. The example shows how to access the
    toolbars by name and from there you can set the Visible property. The
    Standard Components toolbar is named StandardComponents. You can also use
    the Delphi debugger to trace the code and see how it works. Add
    RBuilder\Source to your Delphi library path and trace in to the RB source
    and see what is going on. :)
