Limit report export format options to xlsx only

kinane

Hi,
I am using Birt 4.4 and would like to limit report export format options to xlsx only.
i know that i can use " if(reportContext.getOutputFormat == "xlsx") " condition in the beforeFactory script to manipulate the report in case the export is to an xlsx format document.
So i wonder, is there a chance to only allow export to xlsx format? maybe something like "reportContext.setOutputFormat("xlsx")" exists? (its a rhetoric question that helps make clear what i am looking for), I've tried it just before the above condition, although the script validation was successful i got the following error upon report generation:
 
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.EngineException: There are errors evaluating script "reportContext.setOutputFormat("xlsx"); if (reportContext.getOutputFormat == "xlsx"){ reportContext.getDesignHandle().layoutPreference = "auto layout"; } ": TypeError: Cannot find function setOutputFormat in object org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.script.internal.ReportContextImpl@50b69c. (/report/method[@name="beforeFactory"]#1)
 
So please if you know of a way to reach what i need please drop a line,
Thank you.

Are you using the open source viewer with BIRT 4.4? If so, are you wanting to limit the options from the toolbar? Let me know.

There are JSP pages that can be modified to limit the values in your export list. This should be the page you'd need to modify to limit your exports: \WebViewerExample\webcontent\birt\pages\dialog\ExportReportDialogFragment.jsp You could also always just remove the export button from the toolbar and put the export to XLSX in your report as a link.
