Do you manipulate the frx file to do the stretching, positioning?
We developed a nice technique to draw diagonal lines in the Fox 2.6 (and VFP?) Report Generator by manipulation of the frx table.
We "draw" diagonal lines interactively (in design mode)using stretchable bitmaps and then instead of REPORT FORM REPNAME we issue command DO SKYREP WITH REPNAME that converts them to diagonal lines - which are sort of "half supported" by the report generator (you can manipulate the frx to print diagonal lines but there does not appear to be any "standard" tool in the report generator to create them).
Now that I have written this I expect to get a flood of messages explaining that if only I had read page ??? of the manual I would know that there IS a proper way to draw diagonal lines - I always get nervous when I make statements of this sort. I guess that comes with the (public forum) territory. :)
Be gentle with me.
