FastReport MultiColumn

edited May 2017 in FastReport VCL 5
How to make FastReport VCL calculates the number of data rows in a column in such a way that, columns are filled equally. FastReport.NET can do it by setting its properties but not in FastReportVCL. Here is the Output getting from FastReportVCL
ReportColumn 1 Data            ReportColumn 2 Data
1                  A                7             G
2                  B
3                  C
4                  D
5                  E
6                  F
---->Suppose this point is the end of page

I need to have the report look like this
ReportColumn 1 Data            ReportColumn 2 Data
1                  A                5              E
2                  B                6              F
3                  C                7              G
4                  D

Please suggest how to do or it is not capable to do this.

    FR VCL doesn't have such feature. You may use multicolumn band only

    I wonder why it lack of this features while FastReport.NET and other VCL reporting tools have it. I hope it will be implemented soon for FastReportVCL.

    1                  2
    3                  4
    5                  6
    7
    
    What I want is
    1                  5
    2                  6
    3                  7
    4
