Is there a way to regain the space taken by an hidden region ?

Daniel GagnonFeb 19 2020 — edited Feb 25 2020

Hello everybody,

I'm using BI Publisher 12c and the RTF template with  Ms Words 365.

I know that in HTML, you can make div objects that will not take space if its style is display:none;  Can we do the same in BI Publisher ?  I have an hidden section who create a huge space at the beginning of the template, just after the header.

In the properties, I haven't seen anything about that.

This report was created with the last version of BI Publisher, maybe it has an impact ?

I would add that this report wasn't created in a standard way.  The creator didn't use the Header and Footer section and created an header inside the body with a table.  Maybe I should re-create it from nothing and use the header and footer at least.  But I don't know if it will have a positive impact.

Example :

For-each

    Table with header.

    for-each

        Section Title

        for-each

           content

        end for-each

   end for each

   If count > 0 then

        break page

        Title

         loop

            data

         end loop

  end if

If count > 0 then

        break page

        Title

         loop

            data

         end loop

  end if

end for each

If count > 0 then

        break page

        Title

         loop

            data

         end loop

  end if

The region in bold appear with an empty white space when the other region is empty.  We don't want those white spaces.
