  • hi, no in Copy and Paste.

    1.Select All(Ctrl + A),
    2.after Select All, then u move All.


  • Hi Magnus,

    check your uses clauses. 'Graphics' should be placed after Windows, both declares 'TBitmap'.
    TBitmap doesn't override the 'Assign' methods, you have to use 'TPicture.Assign' as Ed already mentioned.

    regards,
  • Works fine here. My code is a bit different:

    procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
    begin
    ppImage1.Picture.Assign(Image1.Picture);
    ppReport1.Print;
    end;

    I just dropped a TImage, TButton and a Tp…
  • Jim,
    Sorry, my mistake i was looking to change the colour on the ppReport or
    Designer component, not the viewer (which makes sense). By the way, did you
    know that you have a published property on your TppViewer component called
    "…

  • Jim,
    Are you planning to release a version of RB that allows one to change this
    setting without us having to change the source code? We are using v6.03, but
    planning to upgrade to v7 fairly soon. For obvious reasons it is unwise to

  • As seems to happen a lot, I figured this out right after I sent the
    question. I just needed to set the BottomOffset to a negative number.


  • Hi Michael,

    there is nothing different as when setting any other property of any Delphi component.
    Where or what is your problem?
    Does the template not load?

  • I would like to insert postscript commands into our reports. These commands
    would merge tif images, that are stored on the printer into the report. We
    will be using this mostly to insert signatures into letters.

  • Hi jmm,

    your example doesn't show any printer code, and I doubt you can do it with Word.
    What do you want to achieve?

  • Hi Justin,

    you have to adjust the 'Bar width' in the barcode configuration dialog.

    regards,
    Chris Ueberall;
  • The problem with setting the autosize property to False and setting the size
    manually is that sometimes the barcode doesn't print correctly. The end is
    cut off and then you can't scan it.

    Any ideas on how to do this properly?
  • Hi Gian,

    set 'Autosize' to 'False'.

  • Etienne,

    it is the first time that you mention 'RAP', you are asking here in group 'General'. FYI, there is a special group for questions about 'RAP'.

  • Ok ...

    first I apologize for the private mail use.
    second, I consider that you're good old "RTM" answer should be a little
    extensed.

  • Hi Etienne,

    use a RichText component and set the text properties for every paragraph as needed.
    You have to fill it by code accordingly.

    OnStartPage in RAP?

  • Hi Alex,

    a 'TppDataDictionary' component can't be used for limiting your data selection.
    It provides the user with user friendly names (table and fields) and with master/detail relations.
    You are mixing here a lot of unrelated t…

  • Hi Report Builder, ???

    please use a reasonable name, thanyou.

    First, I recommend to design reports not in Delphi's IDE.
    Is your form write enabled?

  • Even though I can use a common single designer component for all my reports -
    Since I can't even figure out why form1.ppdesignerl.close works but not

  • I am sorry if I sounded curt before - but I have several users moaning
    about the [Close] button not working even though the [X] close form works
    fine.

    Of course you have tried it, your demo project works fine. In fact if I

    nothing.

  • Thats the one I am using and it doesn't enable the close button as you
    claim. Whilst it shows [Close] as the button caption, the button doesn't
    close the preview, it does nothing.

  • Thanks that works as far as [Cancel] is concerned but since [Cancel] is only
    relevant when processing, it was the [Close] button I really needed - sorry if
