Exporting an updated image exports the orginal image in FR5 - C++ Builder

yimmasabi · November 2015

I want to change the bitmap or canvas in a FR form before I export it. I am trying to update an image (normaly it will be png or jpg) and want to exprot the final result as a PDF. This code below works well but it always exports the PDF with original picture of the Report while I can see the loaded picture in the Picture1 on the preview.

void __fastcall TForm1::UPDATEClick(TObject *Sender)
{
	TfrxPictureView *picv;
	TfrxComponent   *PV;

	Image1->Picture->LoadFromFile("ship.bmp");

	PV  = frxReport1->FindObject("Picture1");

	if(PV)
	{
		picv = new TfrxPictureView(PV);
		picv->Center = true;
		picv->Width = Image1->Picture->Width;
		picv->Height = Image1->Picture->Height;
		picv->Picture->Assign(Image1->Picture);

	}

	if( frxReport1->PrepareReport(true) )
	{
		frxPDFExport1->FileName="testx.pdf";
		frxPDFExport1->ShowDialog = false;
	        frxReport1->Export(frxPDFExport1);
	}
}

Also Preview export do same as below. What should I have to do to export PDF with an updated image ?

frxPreview1->Lock();
frxPreview1->Export(frxPDFExport1);
frxPreview1->Unlock();

This is solved by the code below, Thanks anyway;

TfrxPictureView *picv = dynamic_cast <TfrxPictureView *> (frxReport1->FindObject("Picture1"));
	picv->Picture->Assign(Image1->Picture);

	TfrxMemoView *mem = dynamic_cast <TfrxMemoView *> (frxReport1->FindObject("Memo1"));
	mem->Text ="TESTINGGG";

	if( frxReport1->PrepareReport(true) )
	{
		TfrxCustomExportFilter *oExportFilter = dynamic_cast <TfrxCustomExportFilter*> (frxPDFExport1) ;
		oExportFilter-> ShowDialog = false;
		oExportFilter->FileName = "testZ.pdf";
		frxReport1->Export(oExportFilter);
	}
