Minimum detail height?

Using RB Ent 6.01:

Can't find setting for Detail Band minimum height.

My detail band contains a subreport and the band is set to
Dynamic.
My detail band also contains 3 tppDBtext, stacked on top of each
other.

When report displays and there are no records found, the problem
is that the detail band shrinks back up to the end of the second
tppdbtext.
This is very strange. How do I tell the detail band to stretch
down but never shrink?

Thanks

    The problem is not with the detail height, it's a bug in tppline.
    When there is no data on the report, a tppline that is set to be
    at the bottom of a detail band will move up towards the top of
    the band even though the band itself didn't shrink. It makes
    reports that have no data look unprofessional.

    Can someone please look into this, or provide me a workaround?

    Okay, I fixed the problem.

    When you use a tppline, you have to set the height to the height
    of the detail, use bottom line only, shift to back, and use
    stretch with parent, not shift with parent.
    Then it works as a bottom line to your detail line.
