drifting portal rows when prited?

[wald]

I have a portal.

The portal has many rows.

Everything works fine until I try to print or preview.

When I print or preview, certain portal rows drift down so that I can only see half of the text in the portal row, or none of it at all (it drifts below the visible box).

I checked that the field is not sitting outside of the portal row area.

Has anyone seen this?

Oh, one more thing.

This only happens to one row out of every few.

So all the rows look fine until the 6th or 7th which drifts down.

Then it happens again at 11 sometimes or at row 17.

Portals have a number of known printing problems. It's generally preferable to print from the related file rather than trying to print a portal. You can use a reverse relationship back to the main file so that you can print fields from the parent record.

Unfortunately, the portal I'm trying to print is based on a self-join.

Is there any way for me around this printing issue?

thanks

Since it's a self-relationship you could use Show Related Records in a List View instead of using a portal.

Hope this helps.
