Problem when printing item picture in rtc report

zeon

I wan't to show the picture from the item table on an rtc report. The picture is placed in the body section and not in the page header of the report.

It works fine as long as a picture is present on the item, but if that is not the case the rtc report will show a small red cross.



Can I avoid that, and how?

Thanks!

You could enter a Visibility expression in Image properties

Expression should be something like "=IsNothing(Fields!<blob Picture field>.Value)"

This didn't work. Still showing a red "X", where the picture should have been.

I have also tried

=iif(Fields!Item_Picture.Value = true,true,false)

, but still not working :-(

it is how this works. the only way - is to use placeholder (small image, say 5x5 pixels, just white background) and assign it to item.picture in report dataset. in that case your dataset will have actual pictures for existing images and placeholder image for non existing.

Oh my :roll:

But, thanks for replying!!!
