There are many bands in Stimulsoft Reports. Each type of band has its own unique capabilities. All bands fall into one of two categories: standard bands and cross bands.

 

Standard Bands

Standard bands are rendered top-down. They are usually placed directly on a page. Also they can be placed on a panel.

 

Cross Bands

Cross-bands are rendered from left to right. Usually they are placed on standard bands. There is one special category of band, the Child Band, which whilst it is a standard band is typically used to extend a Data band.
