New features :
In order to introduce the official DTD validating schema for XML template files, the Stampa format has somewhat changed. Although some changes were significant, Stampa 1.9 engine provides full backward compatibility with previous XML file format. This means that your previously generated files will run correctly in release 1.9, without any changes ! You may decide to leave your previous reports intact, however it is a good practice to shift to the new format in some future moment.
For this purpose, the official DTD schema file for Stampa Reports has been published and it's located at http://www.e-dynamica.com/stampa.dtd
When switching to new XML file format, make sure that you are using Stampa.dll release 1.9 or newer in your applications! Users may experience problems when trying to load new file format into an old library!
New XML file format is more compact, hence more user-friendly for manual edit, and moreover, enables faster template loading of heavy-sized reports. Once again, the previous file format is fully supported, but it has been pronounced obsolete !
User can set default document size and layout that will apply to newly created report documents. Furthermore, one can set default font, foreground and background colors, as well as chart, map and barcode types for new elements. Default properties are set using Edit/Preferences menu option (Design Node).
ReportDocument has been provided with setXML(Uri webLocation) for those users who keep their report templates public on the Internet. Note : this method makes synchronious attempt to fetch report data from web address.
UserPaint is an element for displaying external, user generated classes that extend Stampa.UserPaint class.
UserPaint class is a base class for user classes that contain the ability to paint themselves in a ReportDocument, One may consider UserPaint class as a mechanism to extend Stampa Reports functionallity to display user-defined objects.
In order to use this mechanism, users should create their own class that extends the Stampa.UserPaint class and implement Paint(Graphics g) and Clone() methods. Read more in UserPaint.
The total number of pages within a section is now available through $P{sectionTotalPages} system parameter. Unlike $P{totalPages} which displays number of pages in the report as a whole, $P{sectionTotalPages} returns the number of pages in a single (current) section.
Previous versions of Stampa ignored the FromPage and ToPage PrinterSettings properties, and always perfomed printing a document as a whole. In release 1.9 , engine checks if page range is set for print.
The prefered way of setting dynamic content for text fields was using report parameters. However, since 1.9, you can set your TextField content by invoking method ReportDocument.AddText(string fieldName, string content).
Timelines now can split display period into hours and minutes.
ReportDocument is supplied with method AddBarcodeData(string barcodeName, string barcodeData, Barcode.BarcodeTypes barcodeType) that can set both display data and barcode type. Similarly, a method for setting Map data was introduced - AddMapData(string mapName, Map.MapPoint[] points, Map.MapTypes type).
Until now, elements were added by dragging mouse in order to draw it's region. If single click was performed, element would end up with zero size. Since 1.9 users can simply select element to add in the toolbar, and then perform a single click in design pane. Element is then added to report with it's default size.
