Paginated report- how to avoid a table splits into two pages

Hello community,

I hope you can help me this time as you did before. 

 

I have a paginated report that has three different tables with three different datasets. The legend is within the footer because the report can have more than one page.

The problem I experience is the last row splits into two and continues to the next page. I can't fix the row size because they can grow based on the amount of text.  The page above should end with the dashed bottom border of the row I remarked in the image below.

Is there any feature I can set to accomplish this in each table? 

 

Thank you!

Hi @mcantos ,

 

To avoid this, you can use the “Keep Together” attribute for tables that you want to keep intact on a single page.

 

Open your report in Report Builder.

 

On the Design surface, right-click the corner handle of the data region, and then select Tablix Properties.

On the General tab, under Page break options, select the option:

Please see the documentation below for more information on this:

Another factor to consider is line height, try adjusting the line height to fit the page.

 

If you have any other questions please feel free to contact me.

Hi @Anonymous 

I finally fixed the issue by adjusting the row size.

 

Thank you so much!

Thank you @Anonymous for your help. 

 

It did not work for me and I think is because the tables have two rows: one with the small boxes to the right and another just below it. I tried removing the footer but didn't work either.

I have another report with one table with one row and seems to work, so...

I also tried to fix the size without success. Any other ideas? Maybe creating two tables instead of one with two rows?

 

Thank you!!
