GroupFooter Height

Hi all:
How can I set the height of the group footer in code to accommodate only the visible items?
this procedure works and set visible the memos:
procedure frxDBDataset1SubContractor1OnBeforePrint(Sender: TfrxComponent);
begin
frxDBDataset1SubContractor1.Visible := Length(<frxDBDataset1."SubContractor1">) > 0;
frxDBDataset1SubContractor2.Visible := Length(<frxDBDataset1."SubContractor2">) > 0;
...
end;

.. but this is not working!
procedure GroupFooter1OnAfterPrint (Sender: TfrxComponent);
begin
GroupFooter1.Height := 0.90;
if frxDBDataset1SubContractor1.Visible then
GroupFooter1.Height := GroupFooter1.Height + 0.20;
if frxDBDataset1SubContractor2.Visible then
GroupFooter1.Height := GroupFooter1.Height + 0.20;
...
end;

OnAfterCalcHeight and OnBeforePtint events don't work either...
Any suggestions?
Best Regards
Francisco Alvarado

    I tried that but the GroupFooter is overlapped by the next section (GroupHeader).
    Thank you

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
