I have noticed in V8 that when I copy and paste multiple objects in a
report the group of objects selected is often no longer grouped when
pasted. This happens on most occasions, particularly when copying shapes,
but not always when copying a variable and a label (for example) just
wondering if anyone else has noticed this, or is it just something in my
reports ? I am using 8.0.22.30111. I tried some reports in the sample
database and it was not a problem there, so it is something of a mystery
- at least to me. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
John,
A few suggestions:
01. The sequence of selecting objects may vary when pasting the same objects
on a different report on exactly the same band.
02. When pasting objects, make sure that you have provided enough height
and width in appropriate band, along with additional 8 screen pixels
for right and 8 screen pixels for down.
03. When pasting, each copied object will be pasted on the exact same band
on a report (8pix right + 8pix down).
04. Always 'lasso' objects when selecting multiple object so you can clone,
copy, zap, whatever them.
05. If some objects are not visible or behind another object, take advantage
of built-in "Object Tree" to select appropriate control.
Hope that helps!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
