Compiling RDL Layout with Visual Studio Code

Hello,

mayhap I'm overlooking the obvious, but then so are all of my colleagues. I've developed an new report for a customer in Visual Studio Code with an rdl layout. In the old development enviroment you could compile the report (what is now the AL part) and it would also compile you the layout an tell you if (for example) a hidden expression didn't work. With Business Central (especially if it is Clous-based) the only way I have found to do this is to actually upload the Extension into a sandbox and try to print the report. Or rather, use "Send E-Mail" as only then I am acutally given the error message as before and not just "Report could not be printed due to Layout-Error".

Does anyone know a better way to find out if something is wrong in your layout?

Ciao,
Lils

    Hi Lils,
    Unfortunately I have not found a solution to this, currently I am using a codeunit to say report.run(xxxxx,rec) and run it as a startup run F5 is used.
    It does not fixe the issue by it speeds up my proces :smile:
    For help, do not use PM, use forum instead, perhaps other people have the same question, or better answers.
