Change 'display name' of Dynamic text in designer?
Migrateduser
<p>Hi, is it possible to change the displayed 'name' of dynamic text in the report designer? The same way you can for data elements; give it a display name. So that it displays for instance ''Address'' instead of:</p>
<pre class="_prettyXprint">
if (row["civic"] != '0')
row["civic"] + ' ' + row["street"];
else
row["street"]
</pre>
<p>With the above, it will create a huge dynamic text taking up four rows; basically skewing the whole row size and so report appearance when viewing the report in the designer... It only takes a few to have the report look completely different than when it runs, making the designing more difficult.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have tried to enter the dynamic text's Advanced properties and give it a dispaly name, but nothing... It always displays the long formula... Is it really impossible to do so? Birt 4.4.0</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>P.S. I guess I could add a custom binding for 'address'... But I don't know, I feel like I'm missing something with the above...</p>
