Pictures in Custom Reports

Hello,

Briefly, is there a way to "Remove line if blank" for directory pictures?

Long story: Working on a directory and I've got it setup to print the picture to the right of the information. I've got "right(alltrim(family_picture),12)<>"NOPHOTO2.JPG"" in the "Print only when expression is true:" field, which keeps the "Photo Not Available" text/picture from showing up if they don't have a photo. However, when there's not a photo, there's still a placeholder for the photo. Is there a way to ignore the photo placeholder if the family does not have a photo? (Because technically, I can see that nophoto2.jpg is probably showing up in the field, so no family-picture field is ever blank.)

If there are fields to the left or right of it, then you won't be able to remove that field.

How would I if there weren't fields to the left or right of it?

The Print When condition you listed will keep the field from printing, leaving the field empty. Checking the "Remove line if blank" option above the Print When will remove the space if the field is empty.

One last question I can't seem to figure out. How do I center a picture in the field? Everything I've tried doesn't seem to work.

There is not a way to center a picture in the frame.
