new to reports 6i

is it possible to automatically expand the layout model when editing a
report, to see what is actually there ?

it seems that that everything is squashed into the top of the screen
and needs to be carefully disected !

Re: new to reports 6i

if you used the wizard to generate the layout, yup it's pretty tight.
Boxes inside boxes insides boxes ...

Their is the zoom tool .

I suggest start at the top level and starting dragging
Tedious and slow is the way to go.

The select parent frame tool comes in handy.

Seleting and chaging indivials elements in the previewer will reflect
changes in the layout model.

Big Note: Always keep a working backup or you find yourself starting over.
