The InputField report control provides support for editable fields in an exported PDF report where the InputField’s value can be modified.
Note: The InputField control is part of the Professional Edition. With the Standard license, the InputField control is not displayed in an exported file.
You can choose one of the two report control types – Text and Checkbox, in the InputType property. Each selected type has its own set of properties.
In case of the Text type, the InputField control gets the set of properties of the TextBox control. If the Checkbox type is selected, then the control inherits the set of properties of the CheckBox control.
Limitations
- (Preview limitation) Border drawing is displayed inside the control area.
- (Preview limitation) A checkmark inside the InputField CheckBox is shown only if the field size allows as a checkmark can't be displayed partly.
- (Preview limitation) Some properties are not supported at preview, like Multiline (False), Password, Required.
- With the PDF export filter, the InputField control is exported as a static, non-editable control.
- (PDF limitation) Limited set of enum values for the BorderStyle property - None, Solid, Dashed, Inset.
- (PDF limitation) Padding, VerticalAlign, Justify settings are not available.
- (PDF limitation) Properties related to the Text/ Font settings are not available for the InputType control as Checkbox.
