Report Designer - Moving Footer / any ideas?


Forum|alt.badge.img

Hello. I am looking for an idea or a solution to a problem. We have noticed a bug that is triggered when there are too many panels in the detail section, or when there is a section with "PrintOnEveryPage" in the middle of the report without the "PrintAtBottom" attribute. Under these circumstances, the actual footer moves up and down instead of staying where it should be. Is there another way to circumvent this problem other than not using panels in detail sections or working without "PrintOnEveryPage"?

Actually, Yes @Chris Hackett.

It was due to a Section marked as “Print as Bottom” while it wasn’t at the bottom of the report. 
This somehow confused the Report Designer.

I’m not sure if it’ll work in your situation, but to deal with something similar I ended up using a SubReport and removed a grouping instead of one more panel. It didn’t even break things out further, it was a 1:1 relationship but fixed some annoying footer placement issues when the page break was in a weird spot.

anything similar Rather of adding another panel, I used a SubReport and eliminated a grouping. It was a connection that didn't even separate things out further, but it did address some bothersome footer positioning issues when the page break was in an odd place.
