New Footer always locks to top of report

Post by stimuljohn »

Hi,

I'm hoping this is a simple question for most. Fairly new to Stimulsoft, and just starting to become involved with creating reports.

Started a new report, and when adding a Footer, the object is always placed at the top of the report. When I try to move the Footer object down, it immediately reverts back to its position at the top. I've looked through and made sure the object is not locked or automatically aligning to the grid and verified its properties are not retaining it at this position. I've checked over the properties of the report and options of the software, but I see nothing that relates to the Footer object being positioned at the top.

There must be something I'm missing as far as a setting or condition and I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

Thank you in advance for any help and/or feedback that is provided!

Is there something else I need to do to receive a reply? I notice numerous other threads receiving replies, but not mine for what seems relatively simple compared to other topics.

Is there more information I need to provide?

Hello,

Header, Data, Footer are dynamical bands, which are always placed top-down starting from the top of a page.
Can you please describe your task in detail.
Perhaps you may need the PageFooter, which is always located at the bottom of the page?

Thank you.

Hi Andrew,

Thank you for your reply.

Well, with that one simple answer, you've solved my problem. I was selecting just the normal "Footer" object and have now selected the "Page Footer" object and it is behaving in the manner I am looking for.

Thank you again for your time and feedback!


Cheers.
