Changing Field, Section, and Report Properties
Once an object is selected, you can use the Properties window to edit its properties.
When one or more fields are selected, the Properties window shows property values that all fields have in common, and leaves the other properties blank. If no fields are selected and you click on a section (or on the bar above a section), the Section properties are displayed. If you click the gray area in the background, the Report properties are displayed.
To see how this works, click the label in the Header section and change its Font and ForeColor properties. You can also change a field's position and dimensions by typing new values for the Left, Top, Width, and Height properties.
The Properties window expresses all measurements in twips (the native unit used by C1Report), but you can type in values in other units (in, cm, mm, pix, pt) and they will be automatically converted into twips. For example, if you set the field's Height property to 0.5in, the Properties window will convert it into 720 twips.
