XRPageBreak Class

A Page Break control that defines a page delimiter in a report.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraReports.UI

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraReports.v23.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Reporting.Core

Declaration

C#
VB.NET

public class XRPageBreak :
    XRControl

Public Class XRPageBreak
    Inherits XRControl

Remarks

Add the XRPageBreak control to a report to create a page break within the document at the control’s specified position. All report content below the page break is displayed on a new page.

At design time, the control is displayed as a dashed line attached to the report’s left margin, as shown in the following image.

RD_Controls_PageBreak

Use the XRPageBreak control to insert a page break between controls within a report band (e.g., to divide subreports so that the second subreport starts on a new page).

When you publish a report that contains a page break within a control that does not contain text (any control other than XRLabel), the page break is only added to the control’s first occurrence in the document.

To insert a page break before or after a specific report band, use the Band.PageBreak property.

You cannot add the XRPageBreak control to the following bands:
- Top Margin / Bottom Margin
- Page Header / Page Footer
- Group Header / Group Footer bands (if their RepeatEveryPage properties are enabled).
- Vertical Header / Vertical Detail / Vertical Total

Example

The following method demonstrates how to position two labels located within one band on two separate pages, using an XRPageBreak object.

C#
VB.NET

using System.Drawing;
using DevExpress.XtraReports.UI;
// ...

public void UsingXRPageBreak(DetailBand Detail) {
   // Create two labels and an XRPageBreak object.
   XRLabel label1 = new XRLabel();
   XRLabel label2 = new XRLabel();
   XRPageBreak xrPageBreak0 = new XRPageBreak();

   // Add the controls to the Detail band.
   Detail.Controls.Add(label1);
   Detail.Controls.Add(label2);
   Detail.Controls.Add(xrPageBreak0);

   // Set the labels' text.
   label1.Text = "Label 1";
   label2.Text = "Label 2";

   // Set the location of the controls.

   // The first label is printed on the first page.
   label1.Location = new Point(100, 50);

   // Insert the page break.
   xrPageBreak0.Location = new Point(50, 150);

   // The second label is printed on the second page.
   label2.Location = new Point(100, 250);
}
