About Report Overflow and Object Positioning

In Power Painter, you can control the overflow of reports, and relative vertical positioning of reports and graphs, so they fill an entire page and maintain their relative positions in the document. The Sizing and Overflow property in the Report properties palette is used to control overflow and relative positioning.

Overflow is defined as the area of a report that exceeds its defined space in the page layout. For example, a multi-page report and a graph can both be added to a single page layout with the graph positioned beneath the report. The report can flow to fill the page and the graph can be relatively positioned to the report so it is placed at the end of the document following the complete rendering of the report.

Note: There is currently no method of controlling horizontal overflow.
