Remarks

The Report Design Analyzer shows errors, warnings, and information messages that help you and your end users to detect and fix issues in a report.

The Report Design Analyzer (WinForms)

Based on their source, report errors are divided into four groups:

  • Report layout errors – occur, for example, when report controls overlap each other or extend beyond the report’s printable area.
  • Report creation errors – occur while the report document is created. For instance, it might include notifications about invalid property values or unreachable sources of content.
  • Report export errors – happen while the report document is exported to PDF, XLSX, and other formats.
  • Report script errors – for example, errors in script syntax.

The Report Design Analyzer's default error set

You can set the EnableReportLayoutErrorSource property to false to disable errors related to report layout. Specify the value of this property in a method called at application startup.

using DevExpress.XtraReports.Configuration;
//...

Settings.Default.DesignAnalyzerOptions.EnableReportLayoutErrorSource = false;

EnableReportExportErrorSource = false

You can also disable messages related to the report creation, export, and scripts. Refer to the following property descriptions for details:
