<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>If this property is set to <a class="xref" href="C1.Report.GrowShrinkModeEnum.html#C1_Report_GrowShrinkModeEnum_C1Report">C1Report</a>, fields with 
<a class="xref" href="C1.Report.Field.CanGrow.html#C1_Report_Field_CanGrow">CanGrow</a> or <a class="xref" href="C1.Report.Field.CanShrink.html#C1_Report_Field_CanShrink">CanShrink</a> properties set to true will move fields directly 
below them when they grow or shrink. Fields located below but off to the side are not moved.</p>
<p>If this property is set to <a class="xref" href="C1.Report.GrowShrinkModeEnum.html#C1_Report_GrowShrinkModeEnum_Access">Access</a>, fields that grow or shrink will 
affect all fields below, even those which are not directly under the field that was modified as a result of 
<b>CanGrow</b>/<b>CanShrink</b>. (This is the Microsoft Access behavior).</p>
<p>For example, if fields are arranged in a grid layout and <a class="xref" href="C1.Report.FlexReport.GrowShrinkMode.html#C1_Report_FlexReport_GrowShrinkMode">GrowShrinkMode</a> is set to 
<a class="xref" href="C1.Report.GrowShrinkModeEnum.html#C1_Report_GrowShrinkModeEnum_Access">Access</a>, fields within each row will remain vertically aligned when fields 
above them grow or shrink.</p>
<p>If <a class="xref" href="C1.Report.FlexReport.GrowShrinkMode.html#C1_Report_FlexReport_GrowShrinkMode">GrowShrinkMode</a> is set to <a class="xref" href="C1.Report.GrowShrinkModeEnum.html#C1_Report_GrowShrinkModeEnum_C1Report">C1Report</a>, fields within each 
column will move independently of fields in other columns, and fields within each row will not remain vertically 
aligned.</p>
