Text chopped

[Jon]

Hi,

I have a report with a Data section which looks similar to:

--------------------------------------
Name Mr Example
Age 18
Description I like dfsd fsdf slkdflsj df
sdf sdfsd fsdfsdf sdfs dfsdf
aaa aaaa aa.
Telephone (000) 0000000
--------------------------------------

This repeats down the report.

The problem I have is that the bottom line of the Description sometimes gets missed off (in my example above the lines with a's). This doesn't always happen, it seems to be intermittent.

The field "Description" has been dragged & dropped from the Dictionary, I have then increased its width, set Word Wrap on and set Auto Grow on. I am using Typographic mode due to another missing text problem which only occured when printing.

I have also tried putting the Description section into a container. There's no noticeable difference.

If I use the latest build and look at the report in HTML preview mode, then all the text is shown, so I do not believe this is a database issue.

Some of the descriptions that go wrong are not always long, some are only 3-4 lines long, whilst others nearly fill a page.

I would be grateful for any help people can offer.

Thanks for your help.
Jon.

Please try set TextQuality to WYSIWYG mode. If this does not help for reproducing problem we need sample data in any format and mrt file.

Thank you.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. WYSIWYG works, however the bottom of the letters on the last line is cut off (letters like y, q and p which go lower than other letters). Is there any way I can fix that?

Thanks for your help.
Jon.

Hi Jon, I have a similar problem with my reports but I use the static property like so:

Code: Select all

Stimulsoft.Report.StiOptions.Engine.OldWYSIWYG = true;

It seems using this my data doesn't get cut off.

By default we can't detect correct height of text in gdi+ in some cases. Add at end of text Return. In old version we have added additional space to height of calculated text.

Thank you.

Sent an email with sample data and report file. WYSIWYG works, but isn't good enough quality for our reporting needs. Can you offer any other solutions?

Thanks,
Jon.
