combine two fields in pixelperfect

Hello,

I have two database fields that I want to print together.

They values can be different widths.

I used another report writer where I could move them together and a text box would be created that would be dynamic.

Can I do this in Pixel Perfect?

Thanks,

Michael

so if you have 2 fields/dimensions in the table object you can then have something like:

Dimesnions:

  • dim 1,
  • dim 2

Measure

  • Only([dim 1]&' '&Only([dim 2])

and use the measure to populate field you want to have as merged...

That way you can use it in level or in a table

can't you just concatenate those fields and use as single field?

I can't because they are used in a group by. 

I don't know in advance.

It is not clear what you do - NPrinting is using UI objects - so where do you have a group by?
