  • G'day Eivind, Have you tried checking the FreeSpace against the Height(s) of any Band(s) you need to print, in the BeforePrint event(s) for the Band(s)? Below is an extract from one of our reports that forces a new page if there is insufficien…

  • G'day Patricio, This may be a dumb question, but when you did your "upgrade" did you manually delete the old FastReport files / folders before installing the new? The FastReport Installer is not good at cleaning out legacy stuff. Oh and are…

  • G'day Frank, Those file names look like they contain "IBX" to me. Did you select the Interbase option in the recompile? Do you have Interbase installed? Tsch??ss, Paul
  • If the offered convertor crashes, I'd raise a Support Ticket. The FastReport folk are more likely to respond quickly there. GPI is the only one we see regularly in the Forums... Cheers, Paul PS documentation is an issue we should add to our "w…
  • I have no personal experience of doing this, but the FastReport FAQs suggest you can (if you have Crystal Reports installed). Is there a convertor for ... ? There is a curiously named link there to "Donwload" the tool. [img]style_emoticons/&…

  • Have you tried adding a BeforePrint event, and setting PrintBand to False? Cheers, Paul
  • ..and the good news is that FRv6.0.9 is AOK! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="<_<" border="0" alt="dry.gif" /> Cheers, Paul[/img]

  • I think your recent success has nothing to do with your choice of browser! I think there may have been some difference in the files downloaded. We downloaded 6.0.8 on 12/4/18 but had not attempted until this morning to install it. On doing so w…
  • G'day Rasmus, There a few ways to do this, and the choice of which is best depends on factors like what other special treatment your report might need, who will maintain the app, where your skills are strongest etc. Oh, and for really big report…

  • gpi wrote: » Why it should be "greyed out"? You are right of course GPI, it is only a "style issue", but your UI is inconsistent if you don't do it for Indy, when you have done it for Teechart. Updated screen grab attached. Compare the co…
  • gpi wrote: » What is "Label for Indy"? Sorry GPI, I was unclear. The text prefixed with "6" (inside the purple box) is not "greyed out" although the "Focus Control" and associated Button are disabled! And as promised, here is the same ana…

  • OK well those of you who"http://www.fast-report.com/en/forum/?p=/discussion/comment/38611" ] Wishlist from September[/url] (to improve the Installation Process) has not materialised. I'd like to add another piece to that "wish". Just this week…
  • Ah, a small caveat here! While the site at https://cp.fast-report.com says this is v2.7, and the external packaging of the Installation File says the same, the internals are for v2.7.1. The site at https://www.fast-report.com/en/product/fast…
  • Swift work by Oleg in the Support Team has turned my Ticket around on the same day! So the date on the site won't change, but the file is now close to 30Mb in size (the corrupt one was only ~23Mb). Cheers, Paul
  • I have raised a ticket on the 12 March 2018 edition of the FastCube VCL 2 Pro installer, which is throwing exceptions. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.…

  • Could you confirm the status of this edition Paul? Is it what Microsoft and others call a "release candidate" or is it the final, official release? Just wondering, because there has been no launch on your main site, and the telegraphed compati…
  • Not something I've tried to do Jim, but could the info at https://www.fast-report.com/documentation/U..._rtf_format.htm help? If you could programmatically set "Continuous" before exporting to HTML, and clear the flag for RTF, that would s…
  • OK. First pass over the Source Code for FastReport v5.6.8 suggests this a little more complicated than I thought. Of all the modules it looks like the key one is frxPreviewPages.pas which refers to MirrorMargins in three places. The DrawPage …
  • G'day John, Can you break the problem down into smaller bits? For example: - Does the report look OK in preview? - Can you get the report to show up correctly in the IDE / Report Designer? - Do you have a backup copy of a previously compi…
