CanGrow Property
See Also  Example


Determines whether ActiveReports should increase the height of the control based on its content.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Public Property CanGrow As Boolean
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As SubReport
Dim value As Boolean
 
instance.CanGrow = value
 
value = instance.CanGrow
C# 
public bool CanGrow {get; set;}

Return Value

A Boolean value that determines the behavior. If False, ActiveReports clips the text to fit within the control's predefined height.  If True, ActiveReports increases the height of the controls and shifts all controls below it to account for the increase in height.

Example

C#Copy Code
private void detail_Format(object sender, System.EventArgs eArgs)
{
   this.subReport1.CanGrow = true;
   this.subReport1.CanShrink = false;
   this.subReport1.ReportName = "Subreport1";

   ActiveReport rpt = new rptSub1();
   this.subReport1.Report = rpt;
}
Visual BasicCopy Code
Private Sub Detail1_Format(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Detail1.Format
   Me.SubReport1.CanGrow = True
   Me.SubReport1.CanShrink = False
   Me.SubReport1.ReportName = "Subreport1"

   Dim rpt As New rptSub1()
   Me.SubReport1.Report = rpt
End Sub

Remarks

The increase in height might cause the section height to increase.  The section's CanGrow property should be set to True to avoid clipping the section.
