Visible (don't print)

Avatar

Former Community Member
With designer 7.1 I can set the visibility option for the print button to "visible (don't print)" without difficulty.



However when I create any object and wish to invoke the "visible (don't print)" option that field is grayed out.



My work-around is to use another designer program for this purpose but I shouldn't have to do that.



What step am I missing?

Currently the "visible (don't print)" option only applies to buttons. For any other type of field you'll need to set it to invisible in the prePrint event and back to visible in the postPrint event.

Chris,



Thank you.



I will give it a try.



This sounds like a candidate for the next release. It is already available in a competitive product.

We've been working on applying this to fields other than buttons. Keep an eye out for it in a future release...
