Usage
In the painter
Select the control and set the value in the Properties view, Position
tab, Autosize Height check box.
Minimum height
The height of the column, computed field, or text will never be
less than the minimum height (the height selected in the painter).
When the band has Autosize Height set to true, you should
avoid using the RowHeight DataWindow expression function to set
the height of any element in the row. Doing so can result in a logical
inconsistency between the height of the row and the height of the
element. For more information, see the RowHeight function description.
