| Before rendering a group footer |
 |
Tue, 19 Jun 2007 12:18:10 -040 |
My report's streamsource has a group with a 1.3 inch footerband. Before
rendering the footerband, I'd like to check if there is enough space for the
rendering, and if there is not enough, I'd like the footer to print on the next
page.
How do I do this?
Thanks.

You need to look at various properties of the streamFrame and such. This
is detailed in my book (on Reports), and in various other places. Start
at teh OLH. There is a property somewhere that I cannot find right now
(just did some looking) that tells you were you are when rendering ...
how far down the page the last item was rendered or something. You can
use this in a calculation ...

Hello Ken,
Would that be the renderOffset property of the Band class? It returns the
distance from the top of the streamframe, and if the difference between the
streamframe height and that distance is less than a tolerance, then I can begin
a new frame.
Sounds like that could work...

Yes, that was it.
