<p>thanks for chiming in. i figured a hot-key would help when designing and previewing changes, so i ended up doing a workaround:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>download autohotkey -> create a script file -> add this snippet</p>
<pre class="_prettyXprint _lang-">
; View/Run html report in Birt Report Designer
;
#v::
WinActivate, BIRT Report Designer ahk_class SWT_Window0
Sleep, 10
Send, {LAlt Down}
Sleep, 10
Send, {w}
Sleep, 10
Send, {LAlt Up}
Sleep, 10
Send, {Left}
Sleep, 10
Send, {r}
Sleep, 10
Send, {Down}
Sleep, 10
Send, {Down}
Sleep, 10
Send, {Down}
Sleep, 10
Send, {Enter}
Sleep, 10
Click, 800, 600, 0

</pre>
<p>now you can make changes and view report as html by selecting win+v</p>
