KeepChild not working
I have a MasterDetail band with 4 lines of data. The top 2 lines contain a field which allows stretching and both fields appear above each other in each line. When generating the report if the fields are stretched, only the lower overlapped field is shifted and line 2 is now broken with the rest of the fields in line with the stretched field of line 1, and the stretched field of line 2 appearing below line 2
According to the manual the way to correct this is to split the lines into separate child bands and link the bands together as child links
This works correctly and the required output is achieved
However when the combination of linked bands split over a page I cannot force the engine to keep the bands together and immediately start on a new page. Each of the parent bands have "KeepChild" set but it seems as if the engine is not calculating size as a combination of the bands, but only on each band as it comes to print the band
Is there something I am not setting or is there another way of achieving the result
