12.02.2009 NextReports Designer 2.4 is released

NextReports Designer has reached version 2.4.

Version 2.4 brings new features like :

  • Parameters have support for default values (by default selected in user interface at runtime)
  • Parameters can be "hidden". That means the user cannot see them and their default values are computed and replaced when the report is runned
  • User is allowed to export the current report using other datasource than the one on which it was created (useful for test & production databases with the same structure)
  • Publish report to NextReports server
  • Download report from NextReports server
  • Added support for Firebird database
  • User can see in real time the number of records exported
  • Bulk column resize
  • New property 'Wrap text' for cell

For all the features and bugs see the release notes page in the download section.
