RE: Hide some output formats at Print to File

edited September 2010 in General
Hi,

I just upgraded to RBE 12.02 from RBE 7.04 but still using D7.

1. At the Print dialog, I want to hide some output file formats (e.g.
Bitmap File, JPEG File, etc) in the Type dropdown list of the Print To File
groupbox. I only want to show PDF File and RTF File. How do I do this?

2. Previously in RBE7.04, when I right mouse click at the report preview,
I get a pop-up menu with the options Hide Outline, Expand Outline and
Collapse Outline. I recompile this report in RBE 12.02 and the right mouse
click turns up nothing. How can get the Outline popup menu back using RBE
12.02?

Thanks,
Peter Tan

    Hi Peter,

    1. It is possible to unregister any file devices using the
    ppUnRegisterDevice routine located in the ppDevice.pas file.

    uses
    ppDevice, ppImageDevice;

    begin
    ppUnRegisterDevice(TppBitmapDevice);
    ...
    end;

    2. There is a patch available for RB 12.02 that solves the outline popup
    menu issue. Please contact support@digital-metaphors.com to receive the
    patch.
