I am evaluating Stimulsoft and I have a few questions regarding the Table component:

1. With Auto Width=Page is it possible to set a minimum width for a column? I would like all columns to be able to adjust in width so that they can increase if there is space, but I have found that a single large text value can cause other columns to decrease down to almost nothing.

2. With Auto Width=Page is it possible to set the columns to be able to grow in height if there is not enough space after the width is adjusted? In my testing it seems that if Can Grow=True and Word Wrap=True then the Auto Width setting has no effect.

3. In a report with a group and a table, is it possible to set the table header row so that it will only print at the top of each page instead of each time the group changes?

4. In a report with multiple groups and a table, is it possible to set the table footer row so that it will print for each group? In my testing the footer row only prints for the inner-most group. However, with several groups I would like to be able to print summary totals for each one. I could do that in the Group Footer but then those summaries will not adjust position with the rest of the table when Auto Width=Page. If this is not possible, can a field in the Group Footer be set to adjust with a column in the table?


Thank you very much.

You can use the FixedWidth property of this column.

In this case, you can use the Header component.
