Drawing lines

rbuser

We need a report that will show parts (four lines drawn as a box) drawn on a
panel (another four lines).
In side of each part we need to center one line of text to describe the
part. Part count, sizes and positions vary greatly.
What would be the best way to draw these boxes.


TIA

Tom,

Try using a TppRegion and place the lines inside with their ParentWidth set
to True. If you set the TppRegion's Stretchable property to true, the lines
should stretch with the region.

Nico,

Would I be creating the TppRegions at run time? The reports will all have
different sizes and quantities of parts so this does need to be done
dynamically at run time.

Hi Tom,

Yes, creating the regions at runtime is definitely an option. Follow the
