Returns a value that determines whether the filter requires page images to be generated.

Namespace:  C1.C1Report
Assembly:  C1.C1Report.2 (in C1.C1Report.2.dll)

Syntax

C#
public virtual bool UsesImages()
Visual Basic
Public Overridable Function UsesImages As Boolean

Return Value

True if the filter requires page images.

Remarks

By default, C1Report will render the report into the filter and also into its own PageImages collection.

Some filters use these images to generate their output (e.g. PDF, TIFF). Other filters don't need the images (e.g. HTML, RTF) and therefore this method returns false, which saves some resources while rendering long reports.
