The following table identifies the Component Enabler clients that supports dynamic presentation attributes, and identifies the attributes that can be implemented for each client.
| Attribute | Presentation Client | ASP.NET Client | VB.NET Client |
|---|---|---|---|
| BOLD | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| GREY | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| HIDE | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| FORECOLOR | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| BACKCOLOR | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| UNDERLINE | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| CUSTOM | nO | Yes | Yes |
Since the Presentation Client is a turnkey solution, the user cannot take advantage of the CUSTOM attribute to apply any changes in the Field presentations.
For the ASP.NET, VB.NET clients, and other custom clients, CUSTOM attributes can be specified and the required processing can be implemented by the user. However, we do not provide any default CUSTOM attribute processing in any released client software.
Some technologies might not support a particular attribute. As a default, if a client application receives an attribute it does not recognize, then the attribute is ignored, and the presentation of the field does not change.
