I wanted to get input on these 2 features before I put them in. For some of the items in my report, I am using preferences stored in the preference manager to drive some of the header expressions. To do this, I needed to add a Application object instance to the report writer. I would like to make the application object instance available by default in the ReportWriter.
Second, I would like to add TestExpression properties to the Image and String components. These would be substitute values used in the designer display and on a test report in place of the actual expression. Or better would be a generic tag that you could specify property name and value to override for display and testing. I just ran into an issue where I am displaying and address and the y value of the city, state, and zip line is dynamically dependent on whether the 2nd address line is blank. It works fine but the designer doesn't know where to display it on screen. It would be great if I could specify a static value for test form/designer display purposes.
