Notes on Exporting and Printing •The exporting and printing options print the information currently displayed on the page. There are two options if more information is required. First, the user can manually change the item count being displayed on the page. This is done through the Grid’s page size field. Second, a different CorasWorks View can be created with a larger page size or with paging disabled. •The information passed to the export or printed includes the HTML encoding used within the Grid. As such, the resulting export may be challenging to read. To overcome this, create a different CorasWorks View and remove the options for linking or formatting. The resulting export should be cleaner. •There are times when it is not possible to export an item or a
column of data. When that happens, the exported item will be
blank. |
