Title: Layoutproblems with layout references
Post by: charon on 06 May 2014 12:28:46 PM
Heyho dear Cognos Community,

im facing an issue with Layout References in Header/Footer of my Report. Im using a crosstab with dynamic column size (crosstab = 100%), because depending on the choices in the prompts the filtered data will be quite differend in size and therefore the columns have to adapt to that filtered number.

The issue is: the header (a colored background with logo and some text) differs in size as well according to the crosstab. That looks terrible, especially because the report has several pages and scrolling leads to a jumping of the header and different font sizes, and it also confuses me.

Why on earth would cognos adapt the size of a header, which is per definition always the same size for each page?!

Does anoybody has faced that behaviour as well and found a solution?
Im open for ideas :)

thanks and have a nice evening
