Field overwrites label when it grows

[treed]

In my report there is a text box with a maximum of 5 rows. Underneath it is a 1 pt label with a boarder when the field grows it overwrites the label. Is this expected behavior?

Edited to fix question as html is not available in reports.

A workaround was found for this issue by placing the dividing bar at the top of the detail section instead of the bottom.

treed,

You can control the minimum and the maximum number of rows wrap in Object properties.

Hi Steven, I had tried setting those values for the text field and there was no change in the described behavior. Also tried no values again the same. Is there something else I might be doing wrong?

treed,

A simple workaround could be to put the horizontal line (the 1pt label) at the top of the Detail section rather than at the bottom. The end result should look much the same, assuming you are using just the one line to separate the records in the report.

Thanks Neil, that's what I did, just described it a different way.

This is not really a fix, just a partial work around for the issue. In this case the horizontal line was moved from below the notes (bottom of section) to the top of the section. It resolved that issue, but as can be seen from the screen shot a long company name will wrap to the next line and whats below will not move down. The max rows for the company name is set to 3.

Just a thought, perhaps I'm not understanding the setting correctly. In MSAccess, the grow setting does move everything down in a report and that is what I expected this to do. However the TCPDF program may simply use it as a setting of how many lines the field can grow until it is truncated.
