Print picture box or not

Bart De Cattelle

Dear all,

I was wondering if it is possible with the designer to print a certain picture box depending of the fact that it does not require an extra page to print this. So if I have for example an order with 15 lines and if i print it without picture box it takes only one page. If the picture box is printed it takes two pages.
So in this case i would like to set the picture box visible property to false. In the case it would not require an extra page to print the picture box, i would like to set the picture box visible property to true.
Is this possible and if so, how can this be done or where can i find some more information on how to do this.

Kind regards
Bart

Hi Bart

If the size of the picturebox is known the you can try the following approach:
There is a dynamic calculated value UsedHeight.
You can find it by typing Engine.UsedHeight in the Expression Editor.

So you can write something like Engine.UsedHeight < 2000 in the visible Property of the picture. You have to experiment with the value.
