Sometimes when I have these problems. use more than one Detail. The one I put the data and the other (f.e. ?linedetail), I have only line, which print control according to a condition.
PRINT(?DETAIL)
PRINT(?LINEDETAIL)
See the Source code in te embeds.
I hope to serve you the answer.

Hi Tuz,

Doesn't Report$?Detail{PROP:Height} = <New Height> work?

Or, are you talking about Report$?TextBox{PROP:LineHeight} = <New Height>? PROP:LineHeight is a READ ONLY property for text boxes.

Hi Shankar,

I am trying to do this on the report where I have a text control that is set on resize mode, so the height of the text control is dynamic based on the number of characters on it.

However , I have been trying to resize a a vertical line to re- align with the text control height that haven't seemed to work for me yet.

May be am putting this on the wrong embed position. I have my code under process manager Take Record just before the PRINT(RPTetail) is called.

LineCount# = Report$?POL:CoverSummary{PROP:LineCount}
Report$?Line:CSRH{Prop:Height} = Report$?Line:CSRH{Prop:Height} + LineCount#

Will be gratefull for any help

Tuz

I got it working. my SetTarget(Report) was placed in the wrong embed point

Here is my code, for those who might use such an idea

SetTarget(Report)
Report$?Line:CSRH{Prop:Height} = Report$?Line:CSRH{Prop:Height} + Report$?POL:CoverSummary{PROP:LineCount} * 300
SetTarget()

!Report$?POL:CoverSummary{PROP:LineCount}
!Gets the number of lines in a text control

Hi!

You do not need SETTARGET() if you are using Report$.

And, it should be ::

Code:

Report$?Line:CSRH{Prop:Height} = Report$?Line:CSRH{Prop:Height} +  (Report$?POL:CoverSummary{PROP:LineCount} * Report$?POL:CoverSummary{PROP:LineHeight}) + 50

since 300 will not work for all fonts.

You can fine tune the 50 based on the font you use.

Regards

Thanks Shankar,

Apparently it seems to work now. Still using SetTarget(Report), without SetTarget the report is falling to resize my lines,

Thanks for tips about fonts.
