Default Edit text in functional band header

When using functional bands, there are two header shapes above the band. I've
entered text in both bands and used ShapeSheet to modify the height of the
headers to .5. I have done this on 2 different sheets. In one sheet, I can
edit the text in the top header when I double click the shape. I cannot edit
the text of the bottom header unless I select the shape and start typing,
which overrides all the previous text.


Select the lower part of the header, then select the Texttool from the toolbar (the
capital A). That will put you into text edit mode. Exit by clicking the pointer tool.


And is there a way to set the height
separate for each of these header shapes?


Select the top part of the shape, menu Window - Show Shapesheet
edit the cell User.GridRounding, it is normally 5mm*Sheet1!User.AntiScale
(0.25*Sheet1!User.AntiScale in US unit pages)
Change the 5mm or 0.25 to whatever suits.
