dynamic font in detail row of a table

Bea Haazen

hey all,

been working with Birt Report Designer version 11.0.3 for only 2 months now. Call me an apprentice

i'm looking for an on create script in which I can define the font size and style (bold, italic, ...) of the detail row in my table, depending on the value that appears in one column of my table.

i have a column "measurelevel" which returns 1, 2, 3 or 4. so for example, for

measurelevel 1 : i want the detail row in my report to be bold, 12pt
measurelevel 2 : i want the detail row in my report to be bold, 10pt
measurelevel 3 : regular, 10pt
measurelevel 4 : regular, 8pt

i would appreciate any help.
Bea

If you select your table and then select the detail row, you can click on the script tab, below the design window, then, select the onCreate script from the drop down. Here, you can put a script like the following, to do what you're wanting:<br />
<br />
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>
if (row["measureLevel"] == 1){
this.getStyle().fontWeight = "bold";
this.getStyle().fontSize = "12pt";
}
else if (row["measureLevel"] == 2){
this.getStyle().fontWeight = "bold";
this.getStyle().fontSize = "10pt";
}
etc....
</pre>
