Relocating lables dynamically

rbuser

Hi, I am using the TRotatedLabel component. What I want to do is vertically
locate the label so that, no matter what the length of it's text, it allway
butts up againts the botton of the detail band or any distance above it I
would like.

The code I thought would work follows:

RotatedLabel1.Top := ppDetailBand4.height -
ppReport1.Printer.Canvas.TextWidth(RotatedLabel1.Text);

I do not know where to put this to have the desired effect. Any help?

TIA, D

The calculation seems correct. I am assuming the height of the detail band
is static? Put this code in in the BeforePrint event of the detail band.
