RE: Report 6i Object Anchoring

Anchors fasten an edge of one object to an edge of another object ensuring that they maintain their relative positions. For example you can anchor boilerplate text to the edge of a variable-sized repeating frame guaranteeing the boilerplate's distance and position in relation to the repeating frame no matter how the frame's size might change.

There are two types of anchors: Implicit anchors. Explicit anchors

Implicit anchors. At runtime Reports Builder generates an implicit anchor for each layout object that does not already have an explicit anchor. It determines for each layout object which objects if any can overwrite it then creates an anchor from the layout object to the closest object that can overwrite it. This prevents the object from being overwritten. The implicit anchor functionality saves you from having to define the positioning of each object. Implicit anchors are not visible in the Paper Layout view.

Explicit anchors. You can create an anchor in the Layout editor using the Anchor tool dragging from one edge of the child to the one of the parent's edges. Any anchor you create for an object will override its implicit anchoring. Explicit anchors are always visible in the Paper Layout view unless you specify otherwise in the Layout Options dialog box.
