TfrxCrossView Align baCenter issue

D'Arcy

Hi,
I've checked the forums and documentation for any special steps regarding the alignment of a TfrxCrossView component which is filled with data during runtime.

When I set the Align property to baCenter it aligns the component based on the original width prior to it being populated with data. The attached docs displays the behaviour I am experiencing. I can understand why it's happening but need to 'refresh' the alignment after the data has been added.

I have tried setting the Align property on various events within the Script e.g. Cross1OnAfterPrint(), Cross1OnBeforePrint(), Cross1OnCalcWidth(), Cross1OnAfterData()
I have also tried setting the property on the 2nd pass within my code e.g. frxReport1BeforePrint() -> IsFinalPass()

Thanks in advance for your help

I can't force DBCross to be aligned the way you wish, but I tried with succes to change its Left position.
Have a look at the code below and if you find it interesting then follow the idea I tested.

var DBCrossWidth :real;
    LastCol :int;                                                               

procedure DBCross3OnCalcWidth(ColumnIndex: Integer; ColumnValues: Variant; var Width: Extended);
begin
   if ColumnIndex > LastCol 
     then begin
            DBCrossWidth := DBCrossWidth + Width;
            LastCol := ColumnIndex;
          end
     else DbCross3.Left := MasterData1.Width - DBCrossWidth/2;
end;

begin
   LastCol := 0;                            
end.

Mick,
Thanks for the suggestion, however it appears that the Width parameter of Cross1OnCalcWidth() is based on a width value before the cols are autosized. When I tested your suggestion the Width value was always 200 which I know is not the true width as the column widths are all different i.e. autosize.

One thing I must emphasize is that I am using the CrossView component (not DBCrossView) and populating the values within frxReport1BeforePrint in my own code. Could it be possible to calculate the Left position after a IsFinalPass() check within the frxReport1BeforePrint function i.e. once the data has already been added.

Any other suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Did anyone get a chance to consider my reply. Unfortunately this is still an issue.

Kind regards,
