ctLeftToRight

edited February 2003 in General
Using D7 Rbldr 7.01

Some of my reports that worked in the previous version of RBldr
now exhibit the following problem:

Old version (6xx):
Joe sam Mary
AddressInfo AddressInfo AddressInfo

New version (7.01)
Joe
AddressInfo

sam
AddressInfo

Mary
AddressInfo

Each label appears in the correct column but simply one label
row lower than it should be.

Some of my reports (using the same page layout) continue to work
properly. I can't determine the difference between the
reports that work under 7.01 and the ones that do not.

I've even reduced the amount of data printed to an absolute minimum to
see if it's some sort of wrap issue... but the problem remained.

ctTopToBottom works properly for all reports including the
one that fails with ctLeftToRight.

I'm scratching my head on this one :-(

    Send a report that reproduces the problem to support. Works best if your
    demo uses a JIT pipeline with some data that doesn't require extrenal files.

    Ed,
    That's going to be a problem since only some reports exhibit
    the "problem". Creating a report that has the problem
    outside of my application may be a challenge. I'll see what
    I can do.

    If there are groups, then left to right traversal is not fully supported in
    this configuration. Try taking the group definitions out of the report to
    see if the problem goes away.

    Jim,
    That was the problem... It now works fine.

    Thanks,
    Jon
