Hello and sorry if it has been questionned before but I couldn't get my answer on the previous topics.

For short story : I have arrays in SubReports that I show in my main report. These are big arrays and therefore they spread between pages which is not a problem but between the pages with the parts of the array there is always a blank page.

Now for more informations:

- Both my main report and my subReports are A4 formatted with 0 margins and 21cm width.

- In my DetailSection I have List (21cm width) that contains a List (21cm width) that contains my SubReportItem (21 cm width)

- I have many arrays but the 2 having a problem are the big ones that spread to multiple pages.

- All the "KeepTogether" properties are set to false wherever that was possible

- In the subreports, I created Tables and not CrossTabs

- I tried to generate a report only using what's supposed to be the subReport and they spread ok between the pages without blanks which makes me think the problem comes from the fact that they are SubReports ?

Hello Vivien,

Thank you for the detailed description of the scenario and the screenshot.

Based on the report content and page settings, the report is divided into one or more pages. The actual report content is rendered on a page after margins are subtracted from the page size. It is indeed possible that the table is trying to stay together due to the KeepTogether functionality and starting from a new page to do so - Pagination Explained - Telerik Reporting.

Additionally, the section may also be trying to keep its content together. For example, the detail section has its KeepTogether=True, which may force the table inside of it to start on a new page to ensure that the content stays together. Please look into that possibility too.

If the items grow horizontally, it may overflow the page, introducing horizontal pagination. For details, I suggest the article Understanding Pagination. Only Crosstab and SubReport may grow horizontally as a whole.

In case you need further assistance, please send us a copy of your report and the data necessary to preview it so that we may observe the behavior locally. If you are hesitant to send your report here, you can open a ticket and provide the details there.

I hope the above information will be useful. Let me know if you have other questions.

Regards,
Ivet
