question on regions

edited February 2014 in General
We are using regions to contain header rows in what appears on the
report as a grid. In some cases, we have two regions, one above the
other, the upper containing the group name, and the lower containing
column names.

Both regions are in the group header of the report, and the lower one
has ShiftRelativeTo the upper, to manage position when the upper is not
used.

My question is, since I am using ShiftRelativeTo, is there a way to
align these regions so that the lower border of the upper region is
superimposed on the upper border of the lower region? As it is now,
these borders are adjacent, which makes the report look as though there
is a thick border between the two regions.

Thanks,

Bill Meyer

    Bill,

    I recommend using the TableGrid component introduced in RB 15. Each table
    cell can contain any number elements, the cells act much like regions.

    Nard, that sounds great, and we will be doing that in our next major
    version, but in the branches I must support right now, we are in RB 12.

    Try setting Region1.BottomOffset to a negative value.
