[PythonReports-users] Group summary section seems to be mandatory

[Werner F. B. <wer...@fr...>]

Hi,

If I uncheck a "summary" in a group headers property then save and 
reload the report definition I get this exception:

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'tag'

line 119, in load_one_of_pair
   section_pair.set_value("headers", xml_section.tag,

Looking at the code I changed this:

def load_one_of_pair(xml_section, section_pair, report_section):
     """Load one of section pair sections"""

     _has_section = xml_section is not None

     section_pair.set_value("headers", xml_section.tag,
         datatypes.Boolean(_has_section))

     if _has_section:
         load_section(xml_section, report_section)

to:

def load_one_of_pair(xml_section, section_pair, report_section):
     """Load one of section pair sections"""

     _has_section = xml_section is not None

     if _has_section:
         section_pair.set_value("headers", xml_section.tag,
                datatypes.Boolean(_has_section))
         load_section(xml_section, report_section)

The file loads without error but the "summary" check box is checked 
again and there is a summary "element".

As a work around I just set the height of the summary element to zero.
