   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?  | |

   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 | |

   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,
 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 | |
