Created at runtime: MasterData runs off page and PageFooter overlaps

edited 12:37PM in FastReport 4.0
Hello.
I am creating a Fast Report at runtime, entirely from code. The problem is, the data runs off the page (pagesize being A4, didn't set it specifically), or rather it clips the last line printed on page. Report is transported to PDF, but doing Report.ShowReport(...) it also runs off the page. Additionally, if i add a PageFooter to the report, it does not resize the Masterdata to accomodate the PageFooter, instead the PageFooter is printed over the MasterData.
Any help would be appreciated, I have searched in vain for answers on the net.
Below is the code I'm using, attached is a screenshot of the bottom of my report:
var
  ReportTable : TfrxDBDataset;
  Report : TfrxReport;
  DataPage : TfrxDataPage;
  Page : TfrxReportPage;
  PageHeader : TfrxPageHeader;
  PageFooter : TfrxPageFooter;
  Band : TfrxBand;
  DataBand : TfrxMasterData;
  Memo : TfrxMemoView;
  frxInterface : TgtFRExportInterface;
  gtPDFEngine    : TgtPDFEngine;
  X,Y, aWidth : Extended;
  i : Integer;
  List : TList<TfrField>;
  fField : TfrField;
begin
  try
    fTableARTrans.DisableControls;
    ReportTable := TfrxDbDataset.Create(Self);
    ReportTable.Dataset := fTableArTrans; //A dataset

    Report := TfrxReport.Create(Self);
    Report.Datasets.Add(ReportTable);

    DataPage := TfrxDataPage.Create(Report);

    Page := TfrxReportPage.Create(Report);
    Page.CreateUniqueName;
    Page.SetDefaults;

    //Title
    PageHeader := TfrxPageHeader.Create(Page);
    PageHeader.CreateUniqueName;
    PageHeader.SetBounds(0,0,Page.Width - 75.6,50); // poPortrait

    with TfrxMemoView.Create(PageHeader) do
    begin
      CreateUniqueName;
      Align := baCenter;
      AutoWidth := TRUE;
      HAlign := haCenter;
      SetBounds(0,4,0,24);
      Font.Size := 12;
      Font.Style := [fsBold];
      Text := 'Accounts receivable - Transactions';
    end;

    with TfrxMemoView.Create(PageHeader) do
    begin
      CreateUniqueName;
      Align := baCenter;
      AutoWidth := TRUE;
      HAlign := haCenter;
      SetBounds(0,28,0,16);
      Text := 'Ne?°ri texti';
    end;


    //MasterData - The columns
    DataBand := TfrxMasterData.Create(Page);
    DataBand.CreateUniqueName;
    DataBand.Dataset := ReportTable;
    DataBand.Top := 50;
    DataBand.Height := 20;


    X := 0;
    Y := 100;


    List := CreateFieldList; //A list containing pairs of FieldNames and DisplayNames of the columns

    for i := 0 to pred(List.Count) do
    begin
      aWidth := 100;
      If StringMin(fTableARTrans.Obj.Text.FieldName, List[i].FieldName) = 0 then
        aWidth := 200;
      Memo := TfrxMemoView.Create(DataBand);
      Memo.SetBounds(X, Y, aWidth, fr01cm * 5);
      Memo.Dataset := ReportTable;
      Memo.DataField := List[i].FieldName;
      Memo.Style := 'Data';

      Memo.Height := DataBand.Height - 1;

      with TfrxMemoView.Create(PageHeader) do
      begin
        CreateUniqueName;
        Align := baLeft;
        AutoWidth := FALSE;
        HAlign := haCenter;
        SetBounds(X,50,aWidth,16);
        Text := List[i].FieldTitle;
      end;
      X := X + aWidth;

    end;

    //footer
    PageFooter := TfrxPageFooter.Create(Page);
    PageFooter.CreateUniqueName;
    PageFooter.SetBounds(0,70,Page.Width - 75.6,20); //ath. poLandscape

    with TfrxMemoView.Create(PageFooter) do
    begin
      CreateUniqueName;
      Text := ' [Page#] of [TotalPages#] ',[];
      Height := 20;
      Align := baClient;
      VAlign := vaCenter;
      HAlign := haCenter;
      Frame.Typ := [ftTop];
      Frame.Width := 1.5;
    end;

    Page.AlignChildren;

    frxInterface := TgtFRExportInterface.Create(Self);
    gtPDFEngine := TgtPDFEngine.Create(Self);
    gtPDFEngine.Preferences.ShowSetupDialog := FALSE;
    gtPDFEngine.Preferences.OpenAfterCreate := TRUE;//OpenPDF;

    frxInterface.Engine := gtPDFEngine;
    frxInterface.RenderDocument(Report, false, false);


  finally
    if Assigned(List) then
    begin
      for fField in List do
      begin
        fField.Free;
      end;
      SafeFree(List);
    end;
    fTableARTrans.EnableControls;
  end;

end;

    Thank you very much.
    Adding Stretched := TRUE to the bands and adding StretchMode := smActualHeight to the memos I got it to work as intended.

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.
