Re: Current Record Visual Attribute Group

Hi,
The Current Record Visual Attribute Only applies to the current record in a bloc k, it's mainly used in multiregister blocks where sometimes it's complicated to k now which is the record you are working on (The Current Record).

If you want to set the Visual Attribute of all the records in a block, you shoul d modify the property Visual Attribute of all the items of the record or (easiest) modify the Visual Attribute property of the group and every item in th e group ihnerits this visual attribute if we don't edit the Visual Attribute prop erty from the items.

One more comment:
On a single record block, the record we are displaying is always the current rec ord, since this, for it always applies the current record Visual Attribute Proper ty.

I hope it could help you.
