This is not a known issue. RB Server Edition includes a report server that
can run as a windows service and we have not had any reports of an issue
like this.
If you are not using RB 12.04, I recommend updating and retest (or … -

Setting ShiftRelativeTo to nil will clear the setting.

If the printer name does not exist, I think RB will use the default printer.

Height to the Picture.Width and Picture.Height or set it to PictureMaxWidth,

If the printer driver is not installed on your machine, then RB changes the
Report.PrinterSetup.PrinterName to 'Default' and uses your Windows default

If the reports have been like that for 10 years, one option is to leave them
like that. Another option is to write a program to load the reports,
iterate over the Report.Bands[].Objects[] structure.

In your example, Subreport1 resides inside Region2 and therefore cannot
participate in a ShiftRelativeTo relationship. This is exactly the error
message - "ShiftRelativeTo is not allowed when parent is a Region."

There is now a patch available for RB 12.05 that will suppress the

Please create a simple example that we can build and run here. Use standard

Stephan,
I understand what you describe, and thank you for the feedback. There is
