I know throwing the word BUG out there sounds alarmist but I can reproduce this every time I try. If I select multiple textboxes at one time on a report and in the properties panel click on the ... for conditional formatting, it will let me create and set a rule but that rule is never applied and if I go back to the formatting rules it is gone.

Hello Darin,

This is not a bug, but a missing feature actually. Once you select multiple report items and use the right mouse button to show the context menu, you would notice that the conditional formatting option is disabled, which means this is currently not possible.
This is logged in our TODO list and once we start making improvements to the Report designer, we would surely include such an ability.

Sorry for the temporary inconvenience and thank you for the understanding.

Best wishes,
Steve

Well, maybe semantics here but it allows me to set conditions but doesn't save them so whether it is missing a feature or not I would call it a bug. If it didn't allow me to set the conditions then I would call it a missing feature. I am glad to hear it is planned. It would've been very handy for this particular project. Thanks for the reply.

I got hit with this this morning as well and was coming here to report it. It is a missing feature (glad to hear it could be addressed) but the fact that it lets you go through the process of creating a conditional rule AS IF it is going to work and fails without a message to the user  is a bug.

Hello Matthew,

Point has been taken and we would address this in the best possible way - implement this functionality for a subsequent version of the product.

Hi
I have a bug in the designer. When I am using the designer and have turned on the Report Explore on and go into the preview mode and back the Report Explorer Windows is cleared and it will not get any data in it before I close it and call the menu of the Telerik Report again.

Best Regard
Janus S. Andersen

P.s. System info:
Win XP
VS2008 and Telerik newest version.

Hello Janus,

We were able to reproduce the issue and logged it in our bug tracking system with low priority, since this is not a major showstopper and in fact once you reopen the Report Explorer for a second time, the issue no longer occurs.

Your Telerik points have been updated for bringing this to our attention.

Regards,
Steve

Thanks Steve
I also have a bug when I put in a TextBox and set the angle to 270 deg, and then set the TextAlign and VerticalAlign. It will not have anything effect in the report.

code Ex.

 

this.textBox5.Style.TextAlign = Telerik.Reporting.Drawing.HorizontalAlign.Center;

 

 

this.textBox5.Style.VerticalAlign = Telerik.Reporting.Drawing.VerticalAlign.Middle;

 

Sincerely,

Janus S. Andersen

Hello Janus,

Please verify that you are using the latest official Q3 SP2 release, where this problem has been addressed. I've just made a quick test according to your description and everything is fine on my end.
Also please open separate threads for different issues/questions to avoid confusion and keep our correspondence clean.

Thank you for the understanding on the matter.

Best wishes,
