Fixed size (not available for sub-tables) |
The "Fixed height" property lets you
specify that the size of the table is not to be adjusted automatically
when it has fewer data lines than the available space in the table object,
after the field names are replaced with content. If the property is
disabled, the end of the table moves upwards automatically. Please consider that any objects interlinked with the table can only adjust their position automatically to correspond with changes in the table size if "fixed size" is disabled. |

Pagebreak before |
If the condition returns "True", a page break will be triggered before printing the object. If you have multiple multi-column objects, a page break is triggered automatically after an object if the column counts for the objects are different (e.g. 2-column table followed by a 3-column table) and if there would be insufficient room for the following object. |

|
Suppress |
When you enable the "Data lines.Suppress" object property in tables, all data lines are completely suppressed. This option is particularly useful in combination with the "Force Sums" option. The latter option specifies that totals are also calculated when a data line is not printed. By combining both options and using groups and sum variables, you can print more interesting statistics. |
