Parent Width

edited November 2004 in General
Hi,

How does ParentWidth work.
I have it on my reports but the objects (shape,region etc) still obscured
by margins. Looks fine on the preview.

    Hi Ronny,

    If you have an object's ParentWidth set to True, then it will always stretch
    to the exact width of its parent (either a band or a region). A band's
    width always lies between the margins set in the printer setup.

    Nico,

    If I understand you correct the object's (left and right line) with the
    parent width set to true should be visible on the paper printed out?
    For me it is only the left side line of the object that is visible on the
    printout.

    Hi Ronny,

    You need to be sure your margins are within the printable area of the
    printer you are using. If they aren't, you may loose some report objects on
    paper.
