What’s Changed

HTML5 ReportViewer

• Data-command attributes: added a telerik_ReportViewer_ prefix to each command name; example: historyBack -> telerik_ReportViewer_historyBack.

  • true (directPrint) -> FORCE_PDF_PLUGIN (printMode)
  • false (directPrint) -> FORCE_PDF_FILE (printMode)

ASP.NET MVC Extension

• OBSOLETE: The IReportViewerBuilder method DirectPrint (bool directPrint) of the ASP.NET MVC Extensions is now obsolete. Instead you should use the PrintMode (PrintMode printMode) method. Instead you should use the PrintMode (PrintMode printMode) method. When upgrading from DirectPrint to PrintMode the values have to be upgraded as follows:
  • N/A ( DirectPrint (bool directPrint) ) -> AutoSelect ( PrintMode (PrintMode printMode) )
  • true ( DirectPrint (bool directPrint) ) -> ForcePDFPlugin ( PrintMode (PrintMode printMode) )
