subreport in title of main report

[vk01]

Hi,

 

We want to have a sub-reprot in the title part of the main report. Having some formatting issue, with space. It is adding some additional space into the title in addition to what was set in the subreport.

 

why would there be so much space?

 

thanks.

There could be two reasons for that:

1. your subreport has margins>0px or some bands that you do not use >0px (like Summary), check this.

2. in your master report you have some white space under your subreport element, and the subreport pushes that space down as it expands.

 

Hope that helps!

I have done that, set most of the document properties to 0, the one not being used, except for tjhe title area.

 

how much height should the master report be set at, in order to display the report?

 

Thanks.

The subreport expands to the size it needs, and it expands the band in which it is located, but pushes all the white space under it . For example, if your Title band is 20px high, your subreport ELEMENT is 10px high and aligned to the band top, and the SUBREPORT itself is 30px high, in the master report you will end up with Title band that is 40px high - 30px for the subreport and 10px of whitespace under the subreport element.

You can also try to shrink the subreport page size to minimum (Edit->Report properties, Page height and Page Width).

You probably experience the same problem I had

Whenever i'm using subreports i always remove magins and set the band height to 0 for unused band.

 

hope this help!!!
