I have an existing report that I am working with. The functional request I have is to suppress the automatic page break that occurs when the third group starts to render.

There are 4 groups that are built dynamically. Each group has a crosstab. The first two groups/crosstabs are fairly small and together they take up 25% of the page height. The third group takes up about 90% of the page height and as such defaults it's starting point as the top of the next page.

My client has asked that I suppress this functionality and force the group to start in line with the previous group and then break to another page in the event it will not fit. In some instances I have examples where it takes up 150% of the page space and in those cases it does start right after group#2 and spills onto the next page repeating the headers as expected. 

How can I force this behavior every time?
 
I have set the KeepTogether property to false in TableGroup and CrossTab objects but to no avail.

Are there other properties I need to set in order to insure the desired behavior occurs?

Hello Tom,

Since we do not have the report definition, please check if you have set the KeepTogether property to false of all groups, items in the Detail section and the section itself. You can also compare the attached report definition settings with yours.

I hope this helps.

Have you tried the new visualization options in Telerik Reporting Q1 2013? You can get them from your account.

The code I am dealing with is all generated at runtime for the detail section.

All of the KeepTogether & GroupKeepTogether options have been set to false. The reports consists of multiple crosstab objects (again with the KeepTogether property set to false.)

I'm running out of places to look for this property ..... or .... the crosstab is exhibiting some behavior that it contrary to what I am expecting.

Do I need to also set the KeepTogether property to false for the textboxes within the crosstab?

Hi Tom,

Since the report is created dynamically it is hard to guess what is causing the unexpected behavior. The best approach would be to recreate the report using the designer and compare both definitions.

In order to assist you further, please post the code creating the report definition, or open a support ticket and send it there.
