Separating the report header and
body
You can choose whether or not to show the line separating the
header portion of the report/invoice from the body. You can also
set spacing of the first block of data in the body, and subsequent
blocks in reports that include multiple blocks.
You control these characteristics by entering layout editing mode and then choosing
or .
The dialog that appears lets you set whether or not to show a line
at the bottom of the header, and if so, how thick and what color it
should be. You can change the thickness value by choosing a number
from the popup menu. You set the color by clicking the color
rectangle and choosing a color from the color selector that
appears.
You can change the distance between the bottom of the header and
the top of the first project/matter listing's elements by typing a
value in the Offset to first listing
text box, or changing it with the arrow buttons. This value
reflects pixel measurements. It applies to any elements used to
show project data. In other words, if it is a multi-project or date
range report with a heading for the project or date data, the
offset value applies to those values. If there is only columnar
text, it applies to the tops of the columns. Keep in mind that
there is some natural spacing automatically applied to the top of
most text elements, and that it can vary by text font.
The Layout Options dialog also allows you to hide column labels or change their text
color.
