Problem with Shape on PageStyle band

edited June 2005 in General
Hello,

I am using D7 and RB7x.

In order to put a border around my report, I put a Shape on the PageStyle
band and set it so that it takes on the Parent Height and Width. This works
fine and the border appears as it should.

The problem I have is that if I change the PrinterSetup.MarginTop property
to 0.50, my bottom border disappears off the bottom of the report.

Can anyone tell me how to correct this please?

Kind Regards,

Kevin.

    Hi Kevin,

    ReportBuilder 9.x introduced the new Anchors feature which allows you to
    anchor a report object to a side or two adjacent sides of its parent. In
    other words, if you were to anchor your shape to the bottom and right,
    changing the margins would not affect the visibility of the shape as it
    would automatically shift with the report size.

    Um, that wasn't any help. :-) I found a property (StretchWithParent) on the
    Shape component. That solved my problem.

    Kind Regards,
