Public Property Margins As DXMargins
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| DXMargins |
The report’s page margins.
|
Margins are measured in report units (hundredths of an inch or tenths of a millimeter).
To set report margins, create a new DXMargins object and assign it to the XtraReport.Margins property. Do not change an individual setting (Top / Left / Bottom / Right) in the DXMargins object obtained with the XtraReport.Margins property.
The code sample below creates a new report, sets its name, display name, paper kind and margins, and adds the Detail Band band with the XRLabel control on it.

XtraReport report = new XtraReport() {

DisplayName = "Simple Static Report",
PaperKind = DXPaperKind.Letter,
Margins = new DXMargins(100, 100, 100, 100)
};
DetailBand detailBand = new DetailBand() {
HeightF = 25
};
report.Bands.Add(detailBand);
XRLabel helloWordLabel = new XRLabel() {
Text = "Hello, World!",
Font = new DXFont("Tahoma", 20f, DXFontStyle.Bold),
BoundsF = new RectangleF(0, 0, 250, 50),
};
detailBand.Controls.Add(helloWordLabel);
return report;
