| On Parameter Value Change | Specifies the formulas for validating the parameter values in the library component. After you specify the formulas, when users change the parameter values at runtime, Logi Report Engine passes the values to the formulas first for validation: if the values are valid, Logi Report Engine applies them to the parameters; otherwise, it displays the messages you define in the formulas. Choose the formulas from the drop-down list (to select multiple formulas, use the Ctrl or Shift key on the keyboard, then select outside of the value cell to confirm).
For example, for a String type parameter which requires a value that is of 4-7 characters, you can define a formula like this:
Then, when users specify a string value of 9 characters to the parameter, Logi Report Engine displays the message "The value is too long.".
Data type: Object Array |
| Suppress Object Space If Not Exported | Specifies whether to suppress the space for holding the objects in the output of the library component, if you have specified to exclude them from exporting.
Data type: Boolean |
When you define the formula, you need to make it return a blank string for valid parameter values.
