Hiding Shapes - impossible?

Tiple-M · February 2004

Hi,

I have a shape on my masterdata-band. I want this to be shown only for some records.

But FR 2.51 (D7) simply ignores the "Visible"-Property.

Just to make shure, that there's nothing wrong with the condition that turns the shape on or off, I tried to write

myShape.Visible:=false;

within the band's OBP-event. The shape still is displayed.

I also tried to hide a memo from within this OBP-event. It doesn't work. Then I tried to hide it from within it's own OBP-event - and this works fine.

Unfortunately there's no OBP-event for a shape...

Is it impossible to hide a shape?

Kind regards,

Mark

... seems there's quite a way to go for FR...

Finally I found it - as a shape as it's code-section hidden within its memo property, one can add the code there - and it works... don't know, why FR ignores it within the bands OBP-event - but anyway... if it works, don't ask why

look for another problem
if [[line#]mod 2] then shape1.visible := false else shape1.visible := true;
works fine for me in obp event of band in report d7 pro fr2.51
