Hi,
is their a chance to rotate a label in my report by designer of VS2010 (through a property of it or little points at the object it self, like changing its size)?
At this time I only found the way by creating a report at runtime in code behind (see example and reportPreview image) and adding a label at x,y to it with an angle :(
Same thing with a rounded border...
Thx
Example:
Infragistics.Documents.Reports.Report.Text.IText stationeryText = stationery.AddText(200, 400, -45);
stationeryText.Style = new Style(new Font("Verdana", 72), Brushes.Silver);
new
stationeryText.AddContent("DRAFT");
and:
Infragistics.Documents.Reports.Report.Text.IText decorationText = decoration.AddText(350, 650, -15);
decorationText.Style = new Style(new Font("Verdana", 40), Brushes.Red);
decorationText.Width = new RelativeWidth(35);
decorationText.Borders = new Borders(new Pen(Colors.Red, 3, DashStyle.Solid), 10);
decorationText.AddContent("REJECTED");

Hi prinzj,
Are you asking if the rotating text feature is available in the Infragistics Reporting product? Currently this is not possible. You would need to add an image to your report of the rotated text.
I'm a little confused as to the code you provided. It's not possible to modify a report at runtime in code using the Infragistics Reporting product. Reports can only be created and modified using the provided Report designer. What platform and product are you asking about?
yes that's correct.
A little google search before results in this:

I've seen this rotated labels and thought their will be also available in .NET Forms 12.2 (latest release) product from you.
I didn't tested to create a report with code lines, because I try to use always the designer if possible ;)
So....hope this will be a feature in future, cause I need a dynamic setted label (rotated) in my report.
Thx for reply
Ok, that makes sense now. Thanks for clarifying.
At this time it is not possible to rotate text or place a border with rounded corners in the Reporting product. I have determined this to be a new product idea and I have sent it to our product management team. Our product team chooses new product ideas for development based on popular feedback from our customer base. Infragistics continues to monitor application development for all of our products, so as trends appear in requested features, we can plan accordingly.
We value your input, and our philosophy is to enhance our toolset based on customer feedback. If your feature is chosen for development, you will be notified at that time. Your reference number for this product idea is PI13010078 and PI13010079. PI13010078 is for rotated text and PI13010079 is for the borders.
If you would like to follow up on your product idea at a later point, you may contact Developer Support management via email. Please include the reference number of your product idea in the subject and body of your email message. You can reach Developer Support management through the following email address: dsmanager@infragistics.com
It's still possible to get the look of rotated text using an image that contains the text designed the way you want it. You can then place this image into the report to achieve the same look as the example you showed.
Let me know if you have any further questions on this matter.
Hi Rob,
Can you clarify is there any way we can show the value in rounded corner textbox in reporting tool in Window Application.
Thanks,
Kiran Sagar
Hi Kiran,
There is currently no way to add rounded corners in the reporting tool and the reporting tool doesn't have a textbox either. The reporting product is not meant to accept user input when the report is loaded in the viewer so we don't have a textbox control. If you want something that looks like a rounded corner textbox but won't accept user input then you can use an Image of a rounded corner textbox and then place a label on top of it so the text appears to be inside the textbox.
