Dynamic alignment of control based on page size

edited October 2009 in General

Hi,

I want to resize the controls on my report when the page-size changes. I
would lilke the functionalityt that Delphi has in its forms and panels, where
controls are resized automatically based upon the settings Alignment and
Anchors, but this doesnt seem possible with RB as i cannot set anchors left
and right simulteanously and only regions can be set to "StretchWithparent"
or "ShiftRelativeTo".

Is this possible without having to iterate through all components and set
their left and width properties ?

    Hi Bas,

    There is currently no automatic way to resize a component based on page size
    in ReportBuilder. The Anchor feature can only anchor a component's position
    to two adjacent sides of a band/region.

    We will consider enhancing this feature for a later release of
    ReportBuilder. Currently you will need to loop through each component and
    resize them manually.
