Report Headings

I have an interresting occurence happening when creating reports. The scenario is: I put a straight table on a report. In the straight table I wrap the header text to 2 lines. The straight table shows correctly on the report. If however I minimize the straight table the report heading shrinks to 1 line. That happens even if I use a rediculous amount for wrapping (i.e. 10 lines). Is there a setting I can use to prevent the header shrinking in the report when I minimize the straight table? I have attached a sample.

Hi Merwan - thanks for you answer. I have checked it and if I minimize the straight table the heading (when opening the report in edit reports) still reduces to 1 line.

Just to clarify - the heading I'm referring to is the field headings, not the caption heading.

Right Click Mouse -> properties -> Header Height -> give 5 and also click wrap for multi line.

Hope this will resolve your problem for showing such long headings

Hi vikasmahajan, that also did not fix it. Thanks for your input though.

Hi,

From the snapshot i can see you are using QV 10 but may i know which version you are using.

I downloaded the application you attached and it is working fine in my QV 10 - SR2.

See if you need to upgrade your QV version.

Cheers.

Hi BlackRockS – I am on QV10 SR3 – so I don’t think it’s because I need a version upgrade – but thanks for your advice anyway.

It seems that it is a bug with SR3 - I have uninstalled SR3 and installed SR2 and it seems to work. I have logged it with QlikView - thanks once again for everyone's assitance.
