i have generated a compound report and for some of the reports consist the function RECOMPUTE that alter my stylesheet and the footer position. I cannot have a footer that is not consistent, some is higher and some is lower.
the footer is coded to FOOTING BOTTOM, but that doesnt help the situation.
i like to know if there is a way i can hard-code the footer position in terms of vertically speaking.
You can't hard-code the position of the FOOTING, but try adding this at the top of the program:
SET PRINTPLUS = ON -RUN
From the manual:
quote:
PRINTPLUS includes enhancements to display alternatives offered by WebFOCUS. For example, you can place a FOOTING after a SUBFOOT in your report. PRINTPLUS provides the flexibility to produce the exact report you desire.
The PRINTPLUS parameter must be set to ON to use the following TABLE capabilities:
PAGE-BREAK is handled internally to provide the correct spacing of pages. For example, if a new report page is started and an instruction to skip a line at the top of the new page is encountered, WebFOCUS knows to suppress the blank line and start at the top of the page.
NOSPLIT is handled internally. (Use NOSPLIT to force a break at a specific spot.)
You can perform RECAPs in cases where pre-specified conditions are met.
A Report SUBFOOT now prints above the footing instead of below it.
Data displays correctly in subfoots when IF/WHERE TOTAL or BY HIGHEST is used.
BY field actions are linked with BY field options so they appear on the same page. The footing no longer splits on two pages.
Footings and Subfoots always appear on a page with at least one data item, and will never split between two pages.
Printing beyond the length of the page no longer occurs.
Splitting of fields linked by OVER onto separate pages no longer occurs.
There is no reserved space for conditional output. The output page is fully used.
The order of sort fields is no longer relevant.
