Using the Grow to Height Property in Report Designer
The articles in this section of the Knowledge Base involve working with Auto-Size properties in Report Designer. To learn additional information regarding Auto-Sizing properties, see Understanding Auto-Sizing Properties in Report Designer.
This article is regarding applying the Grow to Height property.
Usually, you have more than one component on a band, as in Figure 01 below:
Rendering the report may cause some of the component’s heights to change automatically to suit the size of the contents therein. This automatic changing of height can result in unwanted breaks in the layout, as seen in Figure 02.
These unwanted breaks can be avoided by binding the bottom border of a component to the lower border of the band or container in which the component is placed. This binding can be accomplished using the Grow to Height property.
Grow to Height Property

This gives a consistent and much better-looking result, as shown in Figure 04 below:
