CreateDesignerObject

Extends the Designer's menu and optionally the toolbar of the Designer.

One of the important and powerful options of the designer is the formula assistant and the functions offered in it. With the help of the DesignerFunction and the component's Evaluate event, a function that can be handled separately by the program is offered to the user.

Collection of all designer functions.

Represents a parameter for a designer function.

The available design languages in the Designer can be defined hereby.

The language for the report can be switched in the Designer later to be able to create localized versions of the report.

For further information about localization of reports see Localization of Project Files in Designer.

Similar to the enhancement of the designer functions, you can also define custom object types and register them with List & Label. The new objects are subsequently available to the user in the usual manner through the toolbar on the left and the menu.

Here, a special Collection Editor is also available. You can access it in the development environment with the "..." button of the property DesignerObjects of the previously placed List & Label .NET component. With the "Add" button, you can add a new object type.

See also the provided programmable samples "C# Designer Extension Sample" / "VB.NET Designer Extension Sample".

Collection of all designer objects.

Access to the designer window.

Eventarguments for the delegates:

ExpressionError

List & Label offers an extensive formula parser, which can also easily be used in customized applications. This way you can offer your customer an efficient tool for customization. The class ExpressionEvaluator offers the parser. Here, the usual options of the VariableCollection are at your disposal. If you want to carry out evaluation on the basis of an existing instance of the ListLabel component, simply use the EvaluateExpression method. Through a Boolean parameter, you can indicate whether only the registered variables are to be evaluated or the fields as well.

Represents a Field, i.e. a content block for a table.

Collection of available fields.

Enumerator for the available fields.

Contains detailed information on the available syntax hints, autocomplete entries etc. for a designer function.

Eventargument for the event:

 GetActionState

This class represents an instance of the List & Label object. You can set many options via the properties. The methods allow for a quick design and print access. The events give you further capabilities to influence the print result. The collections for designer objects and functions enable you to add functions and objects to the designer.

The Core object gives you access to the full List & Label API. Last but not least the collections for fields, variables and chart fields host the data that make up the building blocks of your design. Add different types of data and choose the placeholder names for your end users.

The ListLabelDocument class is a descendant of PrintDocument. It enables the usage of List & Label preview files for standard preview controls.

Eventarguments for the delegates:

ButtonPress

Eventarguments for the delegates:

PageChanged

Defines styles for selected and non selected pages.

Defines frames for selected and non selected pages.

Defines how the pages in the preview control become zoomed.

The Core class gives you access to the full API of List & Label. Usually these APIs are only needed when not working in databound mode.

This class allows to send emails.

Event arguments for event NextCombinationPrintStep.

Eventarguments for the delegates:

ParameterAutoComplete

The List & Label Storage API provides access to the LL preview files. You can query general information from individual pages, place multiple files together, and store user data. In the case of .NET components, the API options are accessed with the two classes PreviewFile and PreviewPage. Each of them represents a complete preview file or an individual page of a file.

This class represents a page of the preview file.

Eventarguments for the delegates:

PrintJobInfo

Represents a report parameter within a project, which can be acquired using ReportParametersCollected.

Eventarguments for the delegates:

SaveFilename

Eventarguments for the delegates:

ShowHelp

Eventarguments for the delegates:

EventArgs for the ViewerActionResult event.

Eventarguments for the delegates:

ViewerButtonClicked

Enables the application to influence the tables, table relations and sort orders passed by the databinding engine.

Enables the application to influence fields and variables passed by the databinding engine.

Similar to AutoDefineNewPage, this event is called when printing databound lists for every row of a table before calling LlPrintFields. Here, you can declare additional fields that you would like to use in the table.

The event is triggered when using DataBinding for every new page. Here, you can register additional required variables for this page. The event is called internally before calling LlPrint.

You can check the syntax with CheckFunctionSyntax. Here, you can check the data type of parameters and make sure that the parameters are, for instance, placed in a specific range.

The event CreateDesignerObject is triggered when the user creates a new object. If desired, you can show the initial dialog to the user. This can, for instance, be an assistant that makes it simple for the user to configure the new object. If you don't want to offer this, simply forego processing of the event. The following example shows the display of a MessageBox as soon as the new object is placed in the workspace for the first time. You gain access to the designer window through the event argument. The passed class supports the IWin32Window interface and can, as a result, be used for a MessageBox or another window as a parent.

This event is triggered by the print and design methods for transferring data to List & Label if no DataSource has been assigned. The event arguments are always of the DefineElementsEventArgs type.

Legacy event, use ExportOptions property of the ListLabel object instead (see also ListLabelExportOptions).

This event is triggered by the print and design methods for transferring data to List & Label if no DataSource has been assigned. The event arguments are always of the DefineElementsEventArgs type.

After the user has edited the object, you are asked by List & Label to draw the object. The event DrawDesignerObject is triggered for this purpose. A Graphics object and the rectangle of the object are passed through EventArguments. Now, you can draw in the work area with the known GDI + methods. While doing so, access to the underlying object properties is naturally possible and useful. The sample listing shows the presentation of the graphic file selected above.

The event DrawObject is called for every object displayed by List & Label. The event arguments provide a graphic object as well as the area of the object. In this area, you can for example hide or draw the object.

This event is called in the case of list projects for each displayed page and allows customized drawing with GDI+.

With the help of this event, you can print additional drawings and elements for label and card projects. This allows customized printing. For instance, you can apply a watermark from your product's demo version to each print out.

Similar to DrawTableLine, this event can be used to apply a different color to each field of a table.

This event allows the modification of a table line. In this way, you can, for instance, create a customized colored and, if necessary, an alternating background (which List & Label provides too, but there might be reasons to paint it in this event).

This event is triggered, when the user double clicks on the newly added object or selects the item "Properties" from the context menu. Here as well, you can gain access to the designer window through event arguments, and a separate dialog can be displayed. In the example, you see the display of a file selection dialog. Here, you can choose a graphic to be displayed in the designer. The dialog is displayed by double-clicking on the object.

The event EvaluateFunction has to be handled in order to activate the function. You can gain access to the parameters indicated by the user through event arguments. Use the following lines in order to return the total of both parameters, for instance.

This event is triggered when an expression error occurs in a project. The passed error texts are combined and then displayed to the user.

This event informs that the last data record declared was not displayed as it did not meet a given filter condition. Additional event arguments are not offered.

This event is triggered when a button in the preview window is clicked. Here, you have the option to implement the corresponding function by yourself or accept the regular List & Label behavior.

Tells you that the current page has been changed.

Via ParameterAutoComplete, it is possible to give different recommended values to the AutoComplete feature of the formula assistant.

This event is called every time the state of the print job has changed in the spooler.

This event will be fired every time a project is saved in the List & Label designer. Thus your application can react if a new project is created or an existing one is saved.

This event allows the integration of a customized Help system. For this, the event arguments contain the corresponding context ID. If you implement customized Help, you must indicate this to List & Label, so that the internal Help is not displayed.

You can support your users by displaying help texts for each variable and field. The event is triggered for the corresponding element as soon as the user selects it in the formula assistant and the help text is to be displayed.

This event is triggered when a button in the preview window is clicked. Here, you have the option to implement the corresponding function by yourself or accept the regular List & Label behavior.

Different available data binding modes.

Enumeration for the possible values for property DropShadowType to define the drop shadow behaviour of a page.

Enumeration of the possible values for property SelectionFrame to define the frame type of each selected page.

The data transfer type is determined with the help of the property AutoMasterMode. The underlying enumeration provides the following values:

Changes the text display mode for barcodes.

With this enumeration the chart type can be defined. Every value of this enumeration represents one chart.

Changes dialog style adaption options.

When opening a project you must choose whether the file should be opened if existing, created always etc. This can be specified by using one of the enumeration values.

Defines if the currently opened project is saved when another project is loaded.

Changes the print target.

Enumeration of error codes. These are mapped to exceptions for this assembly.

Enumeration of various extension types.

Enables the programmer to use an external help system instead of List & Label's own help system.
