Removing empty space between groups

[Igor]

Hi,
Please explain to me how to delete the empty space that appears between the group ranges, if I set the visibility in the detailed range = False

Hello Igor,

Test setting CanShrink property of report items and the Detail section to true, this will allow the items/sections to collapse when possible.

You can attach a screen shot of the report in design view in Report Designer so we can see what is the structure of the report and what items are used.

I am having this same problem on multiple reports.  They look great in the Designer Preview, but once exported to PDF they run amok.

1) I believe it has something to do with the footer section.I tried the above fix mentioned (Can Shrink on details section), but no change.

2) Do you why this "flack" shows up on an a .1"x.1" image at the top left corner when exported to PDF?  looks great in the designer.

Thank you

Hi Colleen,

My understanding of the problem demonstrated on snip2.jpg screenshot is that there is an extra blank space between the detail/group footer sections and the page footer of the report when exported to PDF. I suspect that there is nothing to display in this area as the Detail and GroupFooter sections have already finished rendering in the middle of the physical page, and the PageFooter is printed always at the bottom of the page. The behavior is expected in physical print formats (e.g PDF).

I am not sure what is demonstrated on snip1.jpg screenshot and what you mean in point 2 by the image at the top left corner showing up in PDF. From the screenshot of the Report definition, it looks like in this place there is a small item, presumably PictureBox.

You may consider sending the report definition for local investigation.

with regards to the telerik preview vs output to PDF... I should have separated my questions.  Here are 2 screenshots of the preview vs the output.  I am using a small (.1" x .1") transparent PNG file for our rounded corners.  Looks great in preview, but when exported to PDF, it looks messy.  Note in PDF, the rounded corners now appear to have a bit of an outline/flack or something showing up that isn't there.

Thanks again

Hello Colleen,

Let's continue the discussion in the Rounded corners rectangle shape where you have raised the same issue.
