    Move and Resize Report Elements

    You can use the mouse or keyboard to move a report control to a new location.

    You can also select multiple controls and move them in the same way as individual report controls.

    Select a control and then drag a rectangle drawn on its edge or corner to resize it.

    Use the Size to Grid button to resize a control to the report's Snap Grid.

    Drag a band's header strip to resize the band.

    You can also use the Report Explorer to move a control to other bands (except Detail Report Band), or into a Panel or Table Cell controls. Select a control and drag it within the Report Explorer. The drop targets are highlighted when you drag the control over them.

    Note

    You can drag the Table Of Contents only to the Report Header Band and Report Footer Band.

    See Arrange Report Controls for information about tools that help you align report controls to each other and layout edges.
