Page Headers [message #653239] Tue, 08 February 2011 18:48 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi all
I have 2 problems.
1. I am creating reports where the first page prints the report Title and subsequent pages print the report header. However this leaves a lot of blank space above the report title on the first page. Is there any way to recover this space?
2. The reports have a line under the both the report title and the report header, but this only appears in the PDF but not in the preview. The line is set in the box setting for the row. Am I doing something wrong or should I be setting the line somewhere else. It is just confusing not being able to see it. I could see it in the preview when I put it in the individual fields, but it was not continuous
Here is a ssample based on the classic cars database which shows the problem.

Re: Page Headers [message #653450 is a reply to message #653239] Wed, 09 February 2011 14:29 Go to previous message
Eclipse UserFriend
I believe this bug has been reported, but to work around it select the
cell not the data item and apply the bottom border. This should make a
continuous line. For the header try adjusting the top margin on the
master page.

Revised example attached.
