Report footers missing in 2.0.3

Since updating to 2.0.3, none of my report footers are displaying.  In viewing the HTML source code I see they're not getting saved with the htm file at all.

This is a known bug in 2.0.3. It's fixed in 2.0.4.

An optimization we put in to speed up compiling and general SBasic operation is not correctly managing report sections which contain only unbound elements. You can work around this by dropping a bound element into the section and making it invisible. Sorry we missed this condition.  Embarrassed

Thanks, I'll give that a try.  Or maybe I'll wait for 2.0.4 instead of editing all my reports with footers (there are 22 that include them, but they're not heavily used reports).  The updates seem to be coming out fairly quickly; is there a target date for the next update release?

An invisible bound element works great, thanks!

I was just about write up a bug report for what seems to be related to this. I assume that this bug would also be affecting an unbound element in the body of the report, if it's the last element and the only one set to be visible?

I haven't checked that specific variation. Go ahead and write it up so we can make sure the fix takes care of that too.
