I'm a very beginner of stimulsoft. I'm creating a report from my DB SQL but I've got problems with the lenght of the databand.
Basically, I would like to reduce the lenght of the databand because the data-source is different.
In the picture, I would like to trim the databand before the title "Descrizione". Can anyone help me?
Thank you so much
The bands have the heights only and it fills the whole width of its contained (here it is the page).
You need to use the Dock Style property that allows changing the position of the text components dynamically.
But you should check the order of the text components in the Report Tree.

I have no idea how to render the below image with input fields and datatable with the exact alignment in UI.
I referred some documentation with examples, but I can't find the pattern for datatable. Attached the image below. Kindly share your thoughts for this as outline.
I would consider using PrimeFlex instead of p:panelGrid.
You basically need a 3 column grid layout. See the first example:
https://www.primefaces.org/primeflex/gridsystem
An the input can be done using form layout. See the horizontal examples:
https://www.primefaces.org/primeflex/formlayout
For the data table, simply use the p:dataTable. See: https://www.primefaces.org/showcase/ui/data/datatable/basic.xhtml
I know how tricky it is to align things in a way that allows a clean export to excel, however, on this one I am stumped and have never seen it before.
Anyone know why the excel rendering extension insists on inserting a column like in the attached image?
Things that I have tried.
Set the table's position to 0,0.
Removed all borders and padding.
Set the report margins to 0,0,0,0
NOTE : I am using the EXCELOPENXML rendering format as opposed to EXCEL in order to support *.xlxs.

First Column in the Designer:
The report was being rendered as a sub report and was placed in a rectangle and aligned right in the main report, however, the rectangle was one twip off from left align. Once I aligned the rectangle in the main report, the phantom column disappeared.
I am creating a dojo data grid following Brad Balassaitis' excellent blog series. I want to prevent the user from resizing any columns.
I know that each column needs the attribute noresize=true, but I don't know where to put that in xpages. I have defined the width of each column using percentages, and that is working. I just don't want the users messing with the widths I have set. I am hoping to not have to programmtically define the grid if I can help it. Is there an easy way to add this attribute?
I want to develop an user control using Windows.Forms.Label that will internally calculate how much text to show based on the current height and length of the control.
Does anybody have the solution for it.
Thanks in advance.
The simple solution would be to put a Label on your UserControl, and set it to Dock to fill. Set the label's Autosize to false.
If you want to go a step further and an ellipsis to your label, you'll need to look into Graphics.MeasureString.
This question is a follow up to my original question, I've done a bit more reseach, i narrowed a problem down quite a bit.
I've also uploaded a sample .rdl to illustrate the problem
I've got the following report setup: a header (image in the body), two textboxes, and a footer.
First textbox has a little bit of text, and second textbox has lots of text. Second textbox can fit on one page by itself, but won't fit on the page with my header and the first textbox.
The problem is that for some reason, the second textbox in the report is unaware of other contents of that same report, and as long as that one textbox fits on one page - it will be moved to the second page. (once the textbox grows larger than 1 page - it will split, and will achieve the desired behavior)
Desired behavior is to split the second textbox, and keep as much text on the first page as possible, and move the rest to the second page.
I'm not sure about v.2005 but in v.2008 you can set a textbox property: KeepTogether to false.
This will fit as much text on the first page than the rest on the second page.
This is pretty standard behaviour in SSRS. Like many issues with the Reporting engine, you have to trick it.
In this case you could try to provide the 'lines' for the second text box as individual rows in a Detail, then use a repeater or table to display them. Alternatively you could break on 'paragraph'. Unfortunately you'll have to do this in your data source, probably in a stored procedure, depending on how you're getting the data to the report.
If appropriate you could look at client-side reporting (.rdlc files), which allows you to pre-process the data in a .NET application, although setting up for printing can be more complex.
