Thanks LB! I was misunderstanding. Your idea is a good workaround, that along with notes in the Style field (which gets copied) will explain the logic behind the workaround.
I was on a different track - thinking you found a way where the bug was avoided altogether.
FYI - I did report the bug...
LB - Test your instructions. In XI, when you go back into x-2 for font size, then the crBold and crItalic appear. Exactly as before.
I tested in Basic and Crystal Syntax, using both stringvar and numbervar. The result is always the same.
I do note however, that as long as you don't re-save...
LB - Can you provide the formula's you used - because I have not been able to replicate?
I concur with Turkbear - not sure how this would really work, because the goal is to use field values or conditions - as in, change to a smaller font size if the length is too long. The example I used was...
LB - thanks for the confirmation of the first part. I don't think your solution works though - maybe I'm doing it wrong. Can you confirm that it works?
Regarding replacing with the Style formula, add this as a conditional Style:
if {db.ID}>200 then
formula=crBold else...
Bug? - looking for workaround (or fix!).
Steps to replicate:
1. Insert Text Object in Detail section.
2. Insert a field into Text Object.
3. Conditionally format the field to change font size. Example:
if {db.ID}>200 then
formula=20 else
formula=DefaultAttribute
end if
4. Refresh - it...
