    • Hi to all X-Sharp-Friends,
    after converting an application using ReportPro2 from VO to XS, I get a little problem with oPrinter:NextPRow: NextPRow has always the same value as PRow and is not increased by AvgCharHeight. My current solution is to increase PRow manually (i.e. PRow := PRow + 0.43). But this seems not to be very smart. My version is 2.36.0.4.
    Thanks for help.
    Alf

    • Alf,

    • Hi Alf,

    Can you please create and send me (the aef) a small sample in VO, showing how you use NextPROW in a report? Then I will port it to X# to compare.
    I checked through my sources and apparently I had never used that, I only use PROW.

    • Hi Chris,
    you find my demo in the attachment. After opening a DBF a simple report is created: all records appear in the same line. When I replace "NextProw" with "PRow += AvgCharHeight" (please look for the comment lines "ALF" in PrintPageBody) it works well. Ok, that's not really a problem for me, but nevertheless a correction for the next version would be nice. :)

    • Hi Alf,

    Thanks for the sample! Indeed, it works in VO but not in X#, looking into it...

    • Hi Alf,

    Ah, it's because of a silly bug in the RP2 code. Do you have the source code version? If you do, please go to the file

    \ReportPro2, Runtime\Printing\RpPrinter (D).prg

    and change the access

    ACCESS NextPRow AS LONGINT
RETURN LONGINT(SELF:PRow+SELF:AvgCharHeight)

    to

    ACCESS NextPRow AS REAL8
RETURN SELF:PRow+SELF:AvgCharHeight

    That should do it..

    • While you are at it, a fix for the problem long multi-order tags slowing down the appearance of the preview in designer would be fine, too ;) (i know, i promised to deliver a sample, shame on me...)

    • Hi Markus,

    Unfortunately things are a little hectic to create a new full installer right now, but since this is only a very small change, do you mind if I just send you an updated dll for now?

    Karl, can you please send a sample reproducing the problem? :)

    • Hi Karl,

    Thanks, got it, also just saw several more emails from you and also from other people that had ended up in the spam folder unfortunately.
    Stupid thing is that my spam folder contains more legitimate emails than actual spam, this madness with over-sensitive spam filtering needs to end some time...

    Will get back ASAP to you and everybody else that I have "ignored" in the last couple weeks..

    • Hi Markus,

    Please check your mail! If anybody else needs this small quickfix, please let me know.

    Karl, thanks, got the files, but using two order tags was as fast as using one, taking 2 seconds max. I had to add a third one to make it take around 4 secs. But please let me do some more testing and will get back to you

    • Chris,
    just sent to your spam folder another mail, attached an animated gif. Really curious, if that differs from the experience at your side....

    • Hi Karl,

    Spam folder is on fire! :)
    I had followed the exact same steps as you demonstrate in the video and I am not seeing the delay. And I am even testing with a debug version of RP2....Let me have a look into the code though to maybe spot something and will get back to you.
