Zip Code

The Zip Code control transforms its content into a zip code. The width of a Zip Code's segment is adjustable.

Zip Code control

In the Property Grid, the check box control's properties are divided into the following groups.

Appearance

Property	Description
Background Color	Specifies the background color for the control.
Borders, Border Color, and Border Width	Specify border settings for the control.
Foreground Color	Specifies the text color for the control. This option is also available in the Font section on the ribbon.
Formatting Rules	Opens the Formatting Rules Editor allowing you to choose which rules should be applied to the control during report generation, and define the precedence of the applied rules. To learn more on this, see Conditionally change a control's appearance.
Padding	Specifies indent values which are used to render the contents of a check box.
Style Priority	Allows you to define the priority of various style elements (such as background color, border color, etc.). For more information on style inheritance, see Understand styles concepts.
Styles	This property allows you to define Use odd and even styles for the control, as well as to assign an existing style to the control (or a newly created one). For more information on style inheritance, see Understand styles concepts.

Behavior

Property	Description
Anchor Vertically	Specifies the vertical anchoring style of the control, so that, after page rendering, it stays attached to the top control, bottom control, or both.
Keep Together	Specifies whether the contents of the control can be horizontally split across pages. In other words, if the control occupies more space than remains on the page, this property specifies whether this Zip Code should be split between the current page and the next, or whether it will be printed entirely on the next page. This property is in effect only when a Zip Code's content does not fit on the current page. If it does not fit on the next page either, then the Zip Code will be split, despite this property's value.
Scripts	This property contains events, which you can handle with the required scripts. For more information on scripting, refer to Handle events via scripts.
Segment Width	This property setting specifies the width of the lines (in pixels) used to draw the numbers in the zip boxes of the control.
Visible	Specifies whether the control should be visible in Print Preview.

Data

Property	Description
(Data Bindings)	This property allows you to bind some of a cell's properties (Bookmark, NavigateURL, Tag and Text) to a data field obtained from the report's data source, and to apply a format string to it.
Tag	This property allows you to add some additional information to the control; for example its id, by which it can then be accessible via scripts.
Text	The Text box should contain digits or dashes. Other characters are displayed as empty zip boxes.

Design

Property	Description
(Name)	Determines a control's name, by which it can be accessed in the Report Explorer, Property Grid or via scripts.

Layout

Property	Description
Location	Specifies the control's location, in report measurement units.
Size	Specifies the control's size, in report measurement units.
Snap Line Margin	Specifies the margin (in report measurement units), which is to be preserved around the control when it is aligned using Snap Lines, or when other controls are aligned next to it.

Navigation

Property	Description
Bookmark, Parent Bookmark	These properties are intended for the creation of a hierarchical structure within a report called a document map. For an explanation and help, see Add bookmarks. The Bookmark property can be bound to a data field obtained from the data source. To do this, expand the (Data Bindings) property and in the Bookmark.Binding drop-down selector, select the required data field.
Navigate URL, Target	Use the Navigate URL property to specify a URL for web browser navigation when a user clicks a label. The web browser displays a page in a window or a frame as specified by the Target property. Note that a URL must have an appropriate prefix (e.g. "http://"). You can create cross-references within the report by assigning the name of the target control to the Navigate URL property, and setting the Target property to "_self". For more information, see Create hyperlinks.The Navigate URL property can be bound to a data field obtained from the data source. To do this, expand the (Data Bindings) property and in the Navigate URL.Binding drop-down selector, select the required data field.
