Namespace: DevExpress.Snap.Core.API
Assembly: DevExpress.Snap.v21.2.Core.dll
NuGet Package: DevExpress.Snap.Core
Declaration
Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Boolean | true, to skip an empty list when a document is printed or exported; otherwise, false. The default is false. |
Remarks
By default, if the Snap control cannot retrieve data from the underlying data source for a specific field in a template document (e.g., when there is no corresponding column in the data source), it displays the field name instead. However, when you print or export this template to a third-party format, the field name doesn’t appear in the resulting document. Instead, an empty list is generated. To change this default behavior and avoid empty data on previewing and exporting a document, set the SkipEmptyListOnExport property to true. In this case, the entire empty list (including the list header and list footer) will be excluded from the resulting document.
