Hi all,
I'm having an issue with a label format in infomaker. It's diplaying esal1_des, esal2_desc, bus_title, street2, street1, etc. Everything but esal1 is set to autosize height and slide up directly above. When accounts have a business title but no street2, street1 isn't sliding up. There's still a blank line between. If I delete the bus_title from the account and rerun it, no spaces, everything slides as I'd expect it to. We've looked at a lot of combinations and it seems like the only one having an issue is accounts with a business title and without a street2.
We tried checking for trailing spaces, thinking maybe a line were wrapping and displaying the blanks and it weren't really a sliding issue, but that's not it.
We have other label formats that display everything this one does except the business title and the same records with that format display with no blank lines, but the properties are identical!
I thought maybe I'd set the sliding wrong and changed it to "all above" but that just made several fields display overlapping. Any idea where I've gone wrong?
We had this problem on a few reports awhile ago. Make sure there's not an object hiding somewhere. I have had that happen before. I had a small line object in the area I wanted to autoslide that was not visible on the normal design view. Errant mouse click I guess. I would zoom the display up as large as it will go and see if you can select anything in that area.
I also seem to remember having the same problem Ken aluded to with overlapping fields. Try stretching out the fields to much larger than what you think is needed as a test to see if it fixes the slide.
If that is not it, you could email me the report directly and I will look at it for you.
