  I’m using a rather old version of AR, 7. I can’t find a way to save and restore the position of the splitter that divides the sidebar/TOC area from the actual report. No matter if I change

  viewer.TableOfContents.Width

  or

  viewer.Sidebar.Width

  , it doesn’t get displayed correctly. I even tried digging into the inner controls collection without success.

  Is there a way to set the width of the sidebar to a given value?

  Hi Matteo,

  Unfortunately, ActiveReports 7 is a legacy product and we no longer provide support for the same. However, upon updating the ‘TableOfContents’ or ‘Sidebar’ width in ActiveReports 17 the same gets updated in the Viewer’s UI.

  It could be a possible bug in ActiveReports 7, however, it being out of maintenance we would not be able to provide a fix for the same.
  
  It is suggested to upgrade to the latest version of ActiveReports i.e. ActiveReports 17 to enjoy many more bug fixes and features. You may download the same from here and try it free for the first 30 days: https://www.grapecity.com/activereportsnet/download

  Please find attached an updated sample in ActiveReports 17 implementing the same.

  Regards,
  
  Anand

  Thank you Anand. And yes, the intention is to test drive AR, see how much rework we need to upgrade our current codebase and eventually switch to the latest version.
