Grouping Objects such as textboxes
-
Probably something really simple. I have two textboxes that I want to lay side by side. They are within a rectangle box which acts as a boder. When i preview the report in Visual Studio it displays my informational message quite nicely
however when I deploy the report the three seperate objects are displayed one below the other. i have tried to look for a group objects button such as you get in MS office products so I can group these three objects into one object. But i cannot find such a thing. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

Not sure if this helps, but a possible work around can be to create another table instead of using text boxes. You can modify the border designs etc. on the cell level.

thanks for the suggestion. i found out the problem was because of overlapping objects. When they overlap the renderer does not like this. I had to get around the issue by removing the Rectangle box around my text boxes. So I lost my nice border.
Instead I created lines on the top and bottom. i can beleive you cannot overlap objects or even group them? It seems a basic thing to leave out...
