Using stretch with ppMemo

rbuser

I seem to be having difficulty with the stretch property.

I have several ppMemos that have the stretch property set to True
They are placed within a dynamic detail band
I am adding lines with
ppMemo.lines.add('whatever')
but the memo is not stretching.

What am I missing?

Hi Jon,

Where are you adding the lines to the memos (which events)? Are you
loading templates? Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? In my
quick testing with a memo in a dynamic height detail band, I was able to see
all lines when the memo was set to stretch. RB 10.06 Delphi 2007.

Hi Jon,

Below is a snip form a simple application I created that does the same thing
but seems to stretch the memo correctly. Perhaps you can alter it or let me
know how your setup is different.

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
ppReport1.Print;
end;

procedure TForm1.ppDetailBand1BeforePrint(Sender: TObject);
var
liIndex: Integer;
begin

for liIndex := 0 to 24 do
begin
ppMemo1.Lines.Add('Added Memo Text: Line ' + IntToStr(liIndex + 1));
end;
end;

Nico,

I'll give it a test run Thursday in a minimal
program. What you show me below matches what I do...
however, it is in a large report and there may be other
issues "clouding the water".
