Set Margins for an Object

Set the margins for objects in a report to add white space around them.

For Date, Time, Row Number, and Page Number objects, you can only set the left and right margins. If you want to set the top or bottom margins for these objects, place them in a table or a block. Then set the margin or padding properties on the table or block object.

Procedure

  1. Select the object.
  2. In the Properties pane, double-click the Margin property.
  3. Specify the top, bottom, left, and right margins by typing values in the corresponding boxes and choosing the unit of measure.
    Note: Specifying margins using % as the unit of measure is not supported when producing reports in PDF.
