Proper label sizing and word wrap.

edited November 2007 in General
I set my column labels at run time. Since I am limited to space, I provide
an empty lable with a place holder at teh top of my column at design time.
It is in a lable box with word wrap feature enabled. I only expect two
lines to be used, at most.

When two lines are used, the lable is generally fine but if the label is
small enough, it is written on teh top line of the label box rather then the
bottom. This looks strange.

Other then a pre-labelling padding scheme, is there anyway, I can make the
label always write to the bottom line?
TIA

    Hi Larry,

    Vertical alignment is not currently a feature in ReportBuilder however it is
    something we are strongly considering for a later release. As a
    work-around, you could possibly check the width of the text being displayed
    and if it can be fit on one line, manually move the top position of the
    component down to where the bottom line would be.
