Render Mode

The ReportSheet class provides different rendering modes to provide users with specific views. Using the renderMode property in the ReportSheet class, you can set and get these render modes.

ReportSheet supports three different types of render modes:

• Design: Displays the template sheet.

• Preview: Displays the data entry preview.

  Data entry is supported only in this mode in ReportSheet. For more information, refer to Report Sheet Data Entry Support.

• PaginatedPreview: Displays a paginated preview of the ReportSheet.

  It allows navigation between pages by customizing the pagination settings. For more information, refer to Set Pagination.

The following code samples demonstrate how the renderMode property allows switching between Design, Preview, and Paginated Preview modes in the ReportSheet class.

// Switch to Design mode.
reportSheet.renderMode('Design');

// Switch to Preview mode.
reportSheet.renderMode('Preview');

// Switch to PaginatedPreview mode.
reportSheet.renderMode('PaginatedPreview');
