Reset page numbers doesn't work

galcott

I am using FR 4.3 and can't get the ResetPageNumbers property on a group header to work. I set that property and StartNewPage to true, but the page numbers (which are printed in the page footer) don't reset when the group changes. Is there a bug with this or am I missing something?

I solved the problem myself so here's the solution in case anyone is interested. I created a variable called PageNum. In the GroupHeader1OnBeforePrint event I set it to 0:
set('PageNum', 0);
Then in the PageFooter1OnBeforePrint event I increment it:
set('PageNum', get('PageNum') + 1);

This works fine but I still wonder why ResetPageNumbers doesn't work.

You may need either to check your system or debug the problem.

using fr4.4.45, the latest build
Page [Page] of [TotalPages] in page footer
works fine

I am running into a similar problem. By my problem is the totalpages is counting visable = false pages. How would I make that work?

This works for me.

procedure GroupHeader1OnBeforePrint(Sender: TfrxComponent);
begin
Memo1.text := 'Page '+'[page]'+'/'+'[totalpages]' ;
end;

Enable the double pass in report's settings (the "Report|Options..." menu item.

With double pass disable, totalpages print 0 (zero).
