WPF Crystal Report Viewer page load on demand / WPF Viewer Loading All Pages

[Former Member]

Hi,

At this moment, I using the Crystal Viewer for Windows Form. When I load a Report with huge data, the viewer render just the first page (1toN Pages). If I navigate through the pages, each Page will be rendered on demand.

I tried now the WPF Viewer. It seems that the Viewer load all pages before show.

Is it possible to have the same behavior as WinForms? This topic was asked already few years ago:

Some of this may depend on how your report is set up. If you use "Page N of M" or "TotalPages" in your report, you are guaranteed to have the viewer try to render all of the pages prior to showing it.

However, in the link you provided, Ludek's answer is that this is what the WPF viewer does - there's no way to get it to behave like the WinForms viewer.

Hi Dell,

I not use these Fields. Maybe in future this feature will be added (hopefully).
