Larry,
Had a similar issue. Take the line command and insert it between the
bottom of Region 1 and whatever you have in the region. Set the line for
bottom, then simply adjust the line height for your needs. The line
height stays where you put it so play with it for the correct artistic
touch. The line stays at the bottom of the region and the line height
creates the space you are looking for. The line essentially becomes a
spacer. Just stumbled across this and now use it regularly.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Setting STRETCH off for a region.

I'm working in a report.

I have two regions.  Each can stretch.

I would like an inch of white space between the bottom of Region 1 and
the top of Region 2.  However, when I set ShifRelativeTo for Region 2 to
be Region 1, what happens is Region 2 always moves up to be right under
Region 1.  My white space disappears.

I tried putting another region between them (Region 3) and setting the
ShiftRelativeTo for Region 3 to be Region 1 and the ShiftRelativeTo for
Region 2 to be Region 3 (so 3 should move down when 1 expands and 2
should be lined up with the bottom of 3).  However, the Stretch setting
for Region 3 seems to be locked on -- and since it contains no data it
shrinks up to nothing.

Does anyone know the correct combination of controls and settings to do
what I am describing?
