Public ReadOnly Property CurrentLocation As PointF

You can access this property only during the report's processing by using the property's Section.Format, Section.BeforePrint or Section.AfterPrint event.

The Section.Format event may return the incorrect value if some settings have been modified. The list of scenarios that you may encounter is as follows.

Section.KeepTogether = true	The section is moved to next page if the section's height is larger than the remaining vertical area of the current page.
GroupSection.GroupKeepTogether = All/FirstDetail	The whole group is moved to the next page if the group's height is larger than the remaining vertical area of the current page.
GroupSection/Detail.NewPage = Before/BeforeAfter/After	The next group or detail is moved to the next page.
GroupSection/Detail.NewColumn = Before/BeforeAfter/After	The next group or detail is moved to the next column.
GroupSection.ColumnGroupKeepTogether = true	The group is moved to the next column if the group's height is larger than the remaining vertical area of the current column.
ReportFooter	The report footer is moved to the next page if the first column does not contain the last detail section on the current page.
Subreport	The subreport sections may be printed on the next page.

Note: The System.InvalidOperationException error occurs if the property is accessed out of the Section.Format, Section.BeforePrint or Section.AfterPrint event.
