Page Break

The Page Break control is used to insert a page delimiter. It can be placed at any point within a report.

This control is visually represented by a dashed line, as shown in the image below:

The Page Break control is useful when you need to insert a page break between controls within a band, for example to divide sub-reports, so that the second subreport starts printing on a new page.

When you need a page break before or after printing a certain band, instead of using the Page Break control, its Page Break property may be set to Before the Band or After the Band.

In the Property Grid, the Page Break control's properties are divided into the following groups:

Appearance

Formatting Rules – Displays the Formatting Rules Editor which enables you to choose which rules should be applied to the band during report generation, and define the precedence of the applied rules. For further information, refer to Conditionally Change a Control's Appearance.

Behavior

• Scripts – Contains events which can be handled with scripts. For further information on scripting, refer to Handle Events via Scripts.

• Visible – Specifies whether the control is visible when using the print preview.

Design

• (Name) – Determines a control's name, by which it can be accessed in the Report Explorer, Property Grid or by scripts.

Layout

• Location – Specifies the location of the control in report measurement units.

• Snap Line Margin – Specifies the margins for the control, which are maintained when the control is aligned using snap lines.
