Rectangle container

  • I created a report with text boxes but cosmetically it doesn't look very neat. So, I am trying to place it in a rectagle.

    Is there a way to see the text boxes after a rectangle has been placed on it?

  • AFAIK you have to place the textboxes in the rectangle for them to be visible. I think whatever report element is topmost will be what renders, so if the rectangle is on top of the textboxes you'll just see the rectangle. If someone knows a trick to place a rectangle over a group of textboxes and then switch the textboxes to be on top I'd be interested in knowing it; I've always just had to manually move the boxes into the rectangle when I want to group them.

  • You're right. So, I just added four lines outside to form a rectangle coz I had already added all the text boxes first.
