Changing conditional fonts

For memo or string fields that are based on conditions such as a parameter value, you can change the font, font style, size, and color for these fields using the Format Editor.

To change conditional fonts

1. Right-click the field you want to format to bring up the shortcut menu.
2. On the shortcut menu, click Change Font.

   The Format Editor dialog box appears with the Font tab open.

   

3. To change any of the font options, click the appropriate Formula button, located on the right side of the dialog box.
4. In the Format Formula Editor dialog box, you can specify that conditional fonts will change only when certain conditions are met.
5. Click Save.

   Note:    

   • If there is an error in the formula, a message box appears, asking whether to exit without examining the error. If you click No, a second message box will be displayed, detailing the error.
   • If there is no error in the formula, you are returned to the Format Editor. Note that the Formula button has changed. This indicates that a formula has been entered for that property. Search for Formula Compiler Errors in Seagate Crystal Reports online help.
