Hi,
I do have to display two crosstabs side-by-side. I can do this by tweaking some formatting, however I'm not able to decrease gap between crosstabs. I've set padding/borders everywhere to 0, set font size to 1 pixel, but still the gap is too big. I'm attaching picture of what I have so far.

Is there any way how I can further decrease the gap?

You could try figuring out what the row header and row dimension cell Id's are, and putting this script into your crosstab's onRender script:

function onRenderCell( cellInst, reportContext )
{
if(cellInst.getCellID() == 38 || cellInst.getCellID() == 42){ //replace these two Id's with your values
cellInst.getStyle().setDisplay("none");
}
}

This got them close for me. I then went to the right crosstab and set its left margin to -4. That seemed to do it.

Hope this helps.

Michael, thank you for your response. By Cell ID you mean "Element ID" or something else?
Regards,
Tomas

Yeah. That'll be the same thing as cellID. Sorry. Let me know.

OK, I've found I can set "No Display" directly in BIRT Report Designer. Using this and negative margin I've managed to do what I want.
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Tomas
