Column Traversal and Bands Per Record

rbuser

When I try to print multiple bands per record using the
TppDetailBand.BandsPerRecord property in RB 6.03 with the
TppDetailBand.ColumnTraversal property set to ctLeftToRight, it prints top
to bottom instead of left to right until it finishes the extra bands then
shifts to the second column and prints those top to bottom. It seems to be
doing the left to right column traversal only when you move to a new record,
rather than once for each printing of the detail band. Is this fixed in RB
7.0 along with the problem with ColumnTraversal and subreports?

I ran into this trying to print 3-up, 1 inch high laser labels left to right
for two records with the bands per record set to greater than 1.

Delphi 5.0 Enterprise
RBuilder 6.03

I believe it is. There was a left-to-right bug in 6.x. Try downloading the
demo and confirm that it fixes your issue.

Yes, left to right column traversal in subreports is fixed in RB 7.

Left to right column traversal is not compatible with a BandsPerRecord
setting greater than 1.
