Report paper orientation changed through an extender rule
Hello community,
Has anyone used a cube view extender rule to change between the portrait/landscape paper orientation on a PDF report? In our example, we are trying to use a parameter that allows ...

Yes, we used a cube view extender BR and based upon the forecast scenario name it would change the orientation from portrait to landscape. Here is our code:
Namespace OneStream.BusinessRule.CubeViewExtender.CUSTOMER_PageOrientation Public Class MainClass Public Function Main(ByVal si As SessionInfo, ByVal globals As BRGlobals, ByVal api As Object, ByVal args As CVExtenderArgs) As Object Try Select Case args.FunctionType Case Is = CVExtenderFunctionType.GetReportOptions Dim cvER As CVExtenderReport = args.Report.CurrentUIItem.Report Dim uiItem As CVExtenderReportUIItem = args.Report.CurrentUIItem If uiItem.UIItemType = XFReportUIItemType.PageFooterPageNumber Then uiitem.SetPageNumberDisplayInfo (True,"Page {0} of {1}") End If ' --- Option 1: Using native DevExpress report classes , but requires Referenced Assembly to correct version of DevExpress.XtraReports.<version>.dll ' Dim xtraReport As DevExpress.XtraReports.UI.XtraReport = cver.XRReport ' xtraReport.Landscape = True ' --- Option 2: Using System.Reflection to query the DevExpress class through generic objects. Slower to execute, but doesn't require hard-configured Referenced Assembly to the exact server path + version of DevExpress Dim cvERProperty As System.Reflection.PropertyInfo = cvER.GetType().GetProperty("XRReport") Dim currScenario As String = ScenarioDimHelper.GetNameFromID(si, si.WorkflowClusterPk.ScenarioKey) If cvERProperty IsNot Nothing Then If CurrScenario.XFContainsIgnoreCase("01") Or CurrScenario.XFContainsIgnoreCase("04") Or CurrScenario.XFContainsIgnoreCase("07") Or CurrScenario.XFContainsIgnoreCase("10") Then ' Return "IsColumnVisible = True,Bold=True" Dim xtraReport As Object = cvERProperty.GetValue(cvER) xtraReport.Landscape = True Else Dim xtraReport As Object = cvERProperty.GetValue(cvER) xtraReport.Landscape = False End If End If End Select ' XFBR(CUSTOMER_XFBRStrings, QTRFcst, CurrScenario = |WFScenario|) ' Dim CurrScenario As String = args.NameValuePairs.XFGetValue("CurrScenario") ' If CurrScenario.XFContainsIgnoreCase("01") Or CurrScenario.XFContainsIgnoreCase("04") Or CurrScenario.XFContainsIgnoreCase("07") Or CurrScenario.XFContainsIgnoreCase("10") Then ' Return "IsColumnVisible = True,Bold=True" ' 'qtr end is extra columns and landscape ' Else ' Return "IsColumnVisible = False,Bold=False" ' 'non qtr end are less columns and potrait ' End If Return Nothing Catch ex As Exception Throw ErrorHandler.LogWrite(si, New XFException(si, ex)) End Try End Function End Class End NamespaceThen in all the cube views where this applied, we added the rule here:

Hi Teresa! Thank you for replying and providing us with the code you used. We were able to modify it to fit the reporting needs. Adding the code here for other users looking for this in the future.
The client wanted the cube view PDF report to change orientation to landscape when they selected a specific column template on their prompt.
If "Col_CVPeriod" was selected, the orientation defaulted to landscape = false (portrait)
If "Col_12M_Trend" was selected, the orientation changed to landscape = true
Public Class MainClass Public Function Main(ByVal si As SessionInfo, ByVal globals As BRGlobals, ByVal api As Object, ByVal args As CVExtenderArgs) As Object Try Select Case args.FunctionType Case Is = CVExtenderFunctionType.GetReportOptions 'change to landscape if certain column set is selected Dim cvER As CVExtenderReport = args.Report.CurrentUIItem.Report Dim cvERProperty As System.Reflection.PropertyInfo = cvER.GetType().GetProperty("XRReport") Dim sValue As String = args.CubeView.CubeViewNameForSharingAllCols If sValue.XFEqualsIgnoreCase("Col_12M_Trend") Dim xtraReport As Object = cvERProperty.GetValue(cvER) xtraReport.Landscape = True End If End Select Return Nothing Catch ex As Exception Throw ErrorHandler.LogWrite(si, New XFException(si, ex)) End Try End Function End Class
