We have constructed a crystal report and have resulted in a page count of about 100+ pages. We have tagged a 'Cross-tab' component in the report footer to summarise some of the information we are displaying. The customer would like the majority of the report with Portrait orientation and this final page (or two) with the cross-tab to be presented in landscape orientation. Is this possible ?
Alternatively is there a way we can select report objects (the cross-tab in this case) such that we rotate it 90 degrees so that the text is vertical rather than horizontal - this way when we print the last page off the cross-tab will be in landscape if the scope of the report itself is portrait.
Can anyone suggest a solution to this ?
Thanks in advance
Steve
 
I don't think there is a solution.
A report can only have one orientation, and that goes for its subreports also.

In latest version of CR you can rotate a text object or field, but I am pretty sure that doesn't apply to Cross-tabs.

You can pivot the rows and columns so that it is longer in the other direction, but I think that is all you can do. Ken Hamady
