Repeating a header in AppStudio

Matthew Nye

Been struggling with this one for a bit. Wonder if anyone has come up with a solution.

The need is to center a report header AND repeat it for each page of a PDF export in a report that has a variable number of columns. I can accomplish one or the other using textboxes or conditional logic but not both.

I'm able to center a text object by aligning it with the window width, but because this becomes independent of cells it disables repetition.

Setting the report header format doesnt seem to make a difference.

Anyone

Hey Matt,

I use a janky solution on one of my reports that may work for you. Use a hyperblock that extends almost the entire report, with just a small column on either side as "margins". Then put a text object inside the hyperblock, but edit the size so that the text object is just larger than the hyperblock and sticking out on one or both ends (hence the need for margins). This should allow the text object to be resized by the hyperblock even as the number of columns changes. Hopefully that helps!

Best,
Jacob
