Reporting toolbar

[Graham O'Riley]

Hi,

I know currently you can currently programmatically call export functions etc.

I was wondering if in future versions you were going to allow a developer to programatically modify the functions available within the built in reporting toolbar.

Hello Graham,

Can you elaborate on your request? What is it exactly what you are trying to achieve and are you using the web or win report viewer?

Kind regards,

Hi,

I am using the web report viewer.

The toolbar allows a report to be exported.

I was wondering if I can change the export options to only pdf.

Hello Graham,

You can achieve that through the rendering extensions we've introduced - more info available here.
For your scenario in order to allow only pdf as export option, you would have to hide all the others:

  <Telerik.Reporting>
      <Extensions> 
          <Render>
            <Extension name="IMAGE" visible="false"></Extension>
            <Extension name="HTML" visible="false"></Extension>
            <Extension name="MHTML" visible="false"></Extension>
            <Extension name="XLS" visible="false"></Extension>
            <Extension name="CSV" visible="false"></Extension>
            <Extension name="PDF" visible="true"></Extension>
          </Render>
      </Extensions>
  </Telerik.Reporting>

Hope this helps.

Best wishes,

Hi,

That looks good.

I've added the xml to my web.config but it will not debug (start) therefore
I assume I have placed the xml in the wrong section.
It current is:

<

configSections>

<

Telerik.Reporting>
<Extensions>
<Render>
    <Extension name="IMAGE" visible="false"></Extension>
    <Extension name="HTML" visible="false"></Extension>
    <Extension name="MHTML" visible="false"></Extension>
    <Extension name="XLS" visible="false"></Extension>
    <Extension name="CSV" visible="false"></Extension>
    <Extension name="PDF" visible="true"></Extension>
</Render>
</Extensions>
</Telerik.Reporting>
</configSections>

<system.web>


also tried:

<

configSections>

<

section name="Telerik.Reporting" type="Telerik.Reporting.Processing.Config.ReportingConfigurationSection, Telerik.Reporting.Processing, Version=2.8.8.723, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=a9d7983dfcc261be" allowLocation="true" allowDefinition="Everywhere"/>

<

Telerik.Reporting>

<

Extensions>

<

Render>

<

Extension name="IMAGE" visible="false"></Extension>

<

Extension name="HTML" visible="false"></Extension>

<

Extension name="MHTML" visible="false"></Extension>

<

Extension name="XLS" visible="false"></Extension>

<

Extension name="CSV" visible="false"></Extension>

<

Extension name="PDF" visible="true"></Extension>

</

Render>

</

Extensions>

</

Telerik.Reporting>

</

configSections>

<

system.web>

Thanks for the help.

Ok, now figured out how to use the web.config settings:

<

configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">

<

configSections>

<

section name="Telerik.Reporting" type="Telerik.Reporting.Processing.Config.ReportingConfigurationSection, Telerik.Reporting.Processing, Version=2.8.8.723, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=a9d7983dfcc261be"

allowLocation="true" allowDefinition="Everywhere"/>

 

</

configSections>

<

Telerik.Reporting>

<

Extensions>

<

Render>

<

Extension name="IMAGE" visible="false"></Extension>

<

Extension name="HTML" visible="false"></Extension>

<

Extension name="MHTML" visible="false"></Extension>

<

Extension name="XLS" visible="false"></Extension>

<

Extension name="CSV" visible="false"></Extension>

<

Extension name="PDF" visible="true"></Extension>

</

Render>

</

Extensions>

</

Telerik.Reporting>

<

system.web>
....

Many thanks Steve for the help.
