Multiple column data band not printing down then across

Hello,

We have tested your report and our sample report on the latest build and on the 2011.1 release. All reports work correctly.
Please check the latest prerelease build or last release 2011.1 and let us know about the result.

Thank you.

@Apister
The property you are looking for is Collumn Direction (direction of the rendering collumns), on the databand properties. It controls either it will go down then across or across then down.

EDIT

I also changed the number of collumns on the second one to 2, so it looked like on your example.

Thanks Brainstorm for your reply. I see that it is working on your end. I have tried changing that same setting, but it prints Across Then Down on mine. Did you change any other settings besides the number of columns, rows and the column direction?

Thanks ~

Thats all i changed, i also tried on your attached report and i had the same result.
1 5 8
2 6 9
3 7 10
4

On this one, all i changed was the collumn direction and your {ReportData.NAME} to {Line}, and CountData to 10, so it can be displayed on the preview.

EDIT
For the record, im using 2011.1.1000

When I modify the column direction to Down then Across, it gives me the following results.

On that image, are you using the exact same file attached by Ivan? Or anything was changed?

I'm using the exact same file, with the exception that when I got it the column direction on the last data band had reverted back to Across then Down so I changed it to be Down then Across as it should be. I haven't changed anything else.

I didnt have to change a thing when i downloaded it.
Try updating your software to 2011.x

Hello,

Judging by the screenshots, you do not use Stimulsoft Reports.Net but Stimulsoft Reports.Web or Stimulsoft Reports.Fx for Flex.
We made some improvements in that direction a few months ago.
Please check the latest prerelease build and let us know about the result.

Thank you.
