Help with Images

Hello Everyone,

I have a report in which I am displaying images side by side (formatted with multiple columns) in the detail section.

Is it possible to preserve the correct height/width ratio of the images? They appear to be stretched to fit a specific size.

Is it possible without the subreport?

I am using crystal reports XI R2.

Please advise.

Thanks in advance.
 
i have found no easy way to preserve dimensions when picture sizes vary widely.
Currently for a number of reports with photos, i use a placeholder image (250w x 250h pixel gray square) that is slightly smaller than the pictures to be added dynamically. then i process the images beforehand in a graphics program to ensure identical heights (340 pixels in my case). Their widths still vary but they all print nicely in the space allotted with minimal distortion/stretching.
I would be happy to find a simpler solution.
