Hello Kunal,

Telerik Reporting sections/panels behavior is to keep the space they occupy no matter their child items. As a workaround our suggestion is to set the section (detail) height to a very small value in code behind just after the InitializeComponent() is called in the report's constructor. As shown in the following code snippet. This will keep your design time intact and in the same time initially will shrink the report's detail section.

public partial class Report1 : Telerik.Reporting.Report

{

    public Report1()

    {

        //

        // Required for telerik Reporting designer support

        //

        InitializeComponent();

        this.detail.Height = Unit.Pixel(1);

    }

Hi,
telerik i have the same problem.
I am using telerik reporting Q3 2009. Your provided code
this.detail.Height = Unit.Pixel(1);
is not doing anything.
please help me.
thanks

Hello Vineet,

Perhaps something else is preventing your detail section to shrink or you have items that are in the page footer section. In order to find these items you have to select each item in the designer and set their background to some color. If the items are situated in the page footer they will remain at the bottom of the page, regardless of the height of the detail section. Also please have in mind that your report will always make at least one full page.

Kind regards,
