QR Barcodes

[Robert Verderber]

Does Telerik have any plans to add Qr-codes to the list of available bar codes? They seem to be gaining a lot of popularity (especially for scanning with phones) and are included in some of the competitors products.

Hello Robert,

We have the 2D barcodes request logged in our features list and if there is enough interest for such barcodes, we would consider their implementation. We've logged your vote for QR.

In the mean time, you can use an external barcode product and show it in the reports if necessary. Every Barcode component produces images and thus if you have a 3rd party library/component that can create the barcodes you desire, then you can use our PictureBox item to show this image. For example you can define a user function that returns the image and feed the picturebox item with it e.g.:

Copy Code

public static Image GetBarcodeImage(string barcode)
{
    // This is pseudo code
    My2DBarcode barcodeEngine = new My2DBarcode(barcode)
    return barcodeEngine.GetImage();
}

And use this UserFunction in the PictureBox Value expression:

    = GetBarcodeImage(Fields.BarCode)

Best wishes,

I would second that request.  We are wanting to change from another reporting product to Telerik, but haven't done so since 2D bar codes, especially QR codes, are not supported natively.

Hello Galin,

I know, that there is an example for QR code generation, but is it suitable just for ASP Ajax Telerik Rad controls. What we all need is to create something similar control for Telerik Reporting. Btw, I use custom function as Steve wrote above, but native support will be much more comfortable for us :)

Best regards

Hello,

We have already implemented the QR code in Telerik RadControls.

You can check out this demo with QR Code Generator.

I hope this helps.

All the best,
