Hi all,

does anybody know what is the easiest way to set the left margin of a report when viewed via webviewer.
Is it the Masterpage - Margin - Setting? Seems not, perhabs only for pdf or doc...
Or is it possible to adjust it via script?
Or should it be done via css?

Thanks for any hint in advance.

Regards

Andreas

Ha ok, found it. Sorry, realy stupid. Styles is the magic word.

The only problem I now cannot solve is how to set a style via script. For instance if you have a lableHandle there isnt a setStyle method.

How can I set a style to an element via script?

Thanks for any hint in advance.

Regards

Andreas

The easiest way is to name the label in the general properties and in
the beforeFactory script do something like:

reportContext.getDesignHandle().findElement("mylabel").setStyleName("highlight-orange");

Hi Jason,

thank you very much for the hint. It worked like a charm.

Please let me ask one last question. I made a new style, set Box - Margin left 20 points. The style works for labels but fails when set to a grid. The grid ignores the style. I don't see a reason, why.

Thanks for any hint in advance.

PS: Yes, I should have opened a new Thread. Please sorry...

Ah found it. The grid has a separate Margin Set Possibility.

Thanks again.
