Hi,
 
Did you try to set alignment to .Record.PreviewItem.Alignment = xtpAlignmentWordBreak? If so height should be calculated right way. I remember there was an issue once regarding linebreaks in previewitem (not sure) so try to search forum for that.
 
Good luck

Thanks for that, but I had figured that much out by myself.
 
The question is, rather than just setting the height = 100, is there a way to measure the text to be displayed and set the height to the appropriate amount? All I can do currently is guess based on the number of linefeeds in the text.

Hi,
 
I don't use previewItem but I guess this should work:
 
in form Load event
 
Me.wndReportControl.SetCustomDraw xtpCustomMeasurePreviewItem
 
 
Private Sub wndReportControl_MeasurePreviewItem(ByVal Row As XtremeReportControl.IReportRow, ByVal hDC As stdole.OLE_HANDLE, ByVal Width As Long, Height As Long)
 
   Height = 100
 
End Sub

Hi.
 
I would like the preview text below each report item to show the entire comment, not just the first three lines.
 
Can anyone please advise?
