Property of

Band, Container

Description

If a Band object’s expandable property is true (the default), it will increase in size to display all the components inside it, even if its height is set to zero.

Set expandable to false if you want to make the size and number of rows displayed on each page constant, no matter what is displayed.

In a Container object, expandable is used only in reports. When true, the container expands to show all of its components. When false, the container remains the same size on each page.
