Left-to-right-Printing with BandsperRecord

rbuser

Hello!

You wrote as changing in the RB7

9. When subreports contained columnar layouts, left-to-right traversal
did not work properly.

I have a problem with printing this way. I am printing some records
several times with BandsPerRecords := FieldFromDataSet['quty'];
This is working very good, but if I have left-to-right printing then
the first record is always on the left side (I have 2 columns) and the
second one is going to right side. The printer is a DOT-Matrix so I
loose much lables

And when I say Detail.Visible = false/true to avoid printing then
sometimes the lables are printed on each other.

Is this known and fixed with RB 7? (I have D5 now, so I can't test it
on my own)

Using BandsPerRecord greater than one in conjunction with LeftToRight
columnar reports is not supported. It will only work when printing from
TopToBottom. We will consider adding this support in the future. Thanks for
the suggestion.

Hi Jim,

digitalmetaphors

You need to have an if-else case that sets the detail band back to visible,
then you solution will work.

I tried this with
Detail.visible := (valid Condition);
but with this the Detailband was invisible (blank) but printed with blank
labels. I will give this tomorrow one more try.
Thank you.
