Error Adding Image on Export
posted

I'm trying to export a grid that has an image column to PDF.

I'm currently using the CellExporting Event to try add the image.

 protected void dExporter_CellExporting(object sender, DocumentCellExportingEventArgs e)
        {
            if (!e.IsHeaderCell && !e.IsFooterCell && !e.IsSummaryCell)
            {
                if (e.GridCell.Column.Key == "ImageUrl")
                {

                    // Remove Html Tags
                    var url = e.GridCell.Text;
                    var startPos = url.IndexOf("\"") + 1;
                    var endPos = url.LastIndexOf("\"");

                    url = url.Substring(startPos, endPos - startPos);
                    e.ReportCell.AddImage(new Infragistics.Documents.Graphics.Image(url));
                }
            }
        }

 

The issue I am having is that e.ReportCell is always null.
How do I initialize this so that I can format the ReportCell, or should I be trying to do this in a different way

    Hi,

    This is a bug, you can submit it to our support system.

    Currently I can suggest you to handle the RowExported event and manipulate the cell from there:

     void WebDocumentExporter1_RowExported(object sender, DocumentRowExportedEventArgs e)
     {
      if (!e.IsHeaderRow && !e.IsFooterRow && !e.IsSummaryRow)
      {
       System.Reflection.PropertyInfo property = e.ReportRow.GetType().GetProperty("Cells");
       IList cells = property.GetValue(e.ReportRow, null) as IList;

       // Get the desired cell by index
       ITableCell reportCell = cells[0] as ITableCell;

       reportCell.AddImage(new Infragistics.Documents.Graphics.Image(url));
      }
     }

    I hope that this workaround does the job for you!
