By default, all sections are displayed and printed vertically in a document. That is, the Detail Header is displayed below the Document Header, the Detail is displayed below the Detail Header, and so on, as described in About sections in documents.
However, the detail sections can be displayed horizontally across the page. That is, the Detail Header is displayed next to the Detail, followed by the Detail Footer, in a horizontal row across the page. Detail sections include the Detail Header, Detail Footer, and Detail. You can display all three sections horizontally or just the Detail section horizontally.
Horizontally rendered sections have additional properties to control the horizontal width. For more information, see Changing the size of sections.
Note: You can also horizontally display a group. For more information, see Displaying a group horizontally.
Open the document in Design or Editable Mode.
Right-click in the Detail Header, Detail, or Detail Footer section and select Grouping Properties. The Detail Grouping Properties dialog box opens.
To horizontally render only the Detail section, select the Render Detail horizontally check box.
To horizontally render all the detail sections, select the Render Detail Header and Footer horizontally check box. The Render Detail horizontally check box is automatically selected as well.
Click OK.
