Thanks Hozawa, I was hoping that the functionality was already there. When you move fields around on screen, the boxes become red when they collide, so Studio does know where things are when you layout the canvas. It's just a pity the functionality isn't more widely available.

That was a quick reponse. The method you've given is what I'm doing right now, but I was hoping to future proof things by using the field properties. The report layout might change in future, and editing all the print when expressions again will be painful. If that's how it works though, that's how it works. Thanks again.

I'm trying to hide/display fields, based on values that come back from the report's main query. Is it possible to find (and use) a field's X coordinate in an expression? So, if the report query returns $F{START_POSITION} and $F{END_POSITION} as 20 and 40 respectively, I want to display the fields that are between X=20 and X=40 and hide all the others. The X value is available via the properties pane for all fields, but how do I reference it in an expression? Can that be done? Paul
