This is a very important feature for reports. And we have implement it using the same internal engine as the Valentina SQL format() function.
You can read Valentina WIKI: http://valentina-db.com/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=valentina:vcomponents:vsql:reference:expr:funcs_string#format
For any output field you can specify in the inspector its pattern and kind of pattern (number, currency, …).
This feature allows you to specify for a selected item different styles of formatting (bold,color, …) depending on condition, for example, if f1 > 0 color is black, else it is red and bold.
You can use any valid Valentina SQL expression in the condition.
This option allows you make sure that if there is no enough space at bottom of page then group header is printed on the next page with its records.
You can now copy style from one element of report to another using tool bar button.
Igor have implement ORDER of items feature.
This allows you to have two or more overlapped objects and control their order of draw using commands
* Send To Back
* Send To Front
You can find these commands as buttons in the Toolbar, as menu commands and as keyboard shortcuts.
Igor has improve the appearance of Report Editor’s toolbar. Now it have groups to easy switch between different sets of actions and see buttons only for that actions. This also allows to add into the same space much more toolbar’s buttons.
Added more toolbar buttons and commands to edit layout of a report.
During last month, Igor did an incredible job to speed up Valentina reports in different areas x10, x2, x2 times …
Ivan have add into Valentina engine new very powerful FORMAT() function for SQL.
It provides great ability to convert numbers and date/times into string format.
Please read detailed syntax in the Valentina WIKI:
http://valentina-db.com/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=valentina:vcomponents:vsql:reference:expr:funcs_string#format
The same algorithms will be added in nearest time to Valentina Reports.
So we can develop FreeMind maps and use them in the WIKI docs.
1) how to install V4REV
2) how to prepare V4REV MAC app for deployment to a clean user computer.
We have improve VPHP 4.2 to enable use it with easy-to-use bundle MAMP.
Please read details about installation in the WIKI/VPHP/Manual section
We added support of PDO into Valentina PHP – mac and linux are already done. A new vphp_pdo_ driver is included in the VPHP archive.
What the heck is PDO? Read on.
Kirill says:
Was found that V4MD produces not very accurate V4MD.LOG file. So was made polishing of this issue to make sure that all functions print all parameters and return value nicely. The same was made for all properties of Xtras.
It was a huge improvement to solve the problem with a “second run” in stored procedures and binded queries. Sometimes there was an incorrect behavior because of “over-prepared” nodes. There was a workaround with “EXECUTE” statement (which is actually developed to prepare any SQL statement and execute one from another SQL statement). So now this workaround could be omitted.
We have improved Valentina for Ruby v4 on MAC.
Now we have single UB module vruby_fat_release.dylib instead of two _ppc_ and _i586_. This still perfectly works with Ruby.
The WIKI pages about MAC INSTALL are corrected and updated.
We corrected the Valentina.rb adapter to reflect changes in the SHOW commands in v4, which now produce cursor with columns that have prefix ‘fld_’
