I've had some problems with my reports when printing. Some of the text was cut out (last words in the last sentence on the left side of the paper) although when I preview it on the screen it's all there, but this was just introduction for my question.
I created a function where I have a statement like this:
:cp_1:=first_part||second_part;
cp_1 is placeholder for a string, and I put that on layout of the report &<cp_1>. I realized that I will resolve my problem, if I add extra text to my string, but I need to visually hide it (second_part). That is just a way how to trick my printer not to cut out some of my text.
I don't know how to hide second_part of the above string. I tried to change color of it into white, but I don't see how.
Do you have any idea?
