Making top and bottom vertical alignment coexist on the same page - MS Word 2010 - ms-word

I'm writing the last page of a report, where there are three short chapters: Conclusions, Acknowledgments and References. Now everything is top aligned, as per default. However, I'd like the last two chapters to be bottom aligned, without having to press Enter repeatedly to create myself the white space. I experimented with the Page Layout dialog and inserted a section break after the Conclusions, but the bottom alignment starts from the following page.
Is it even achievable what I have in mind? And if so, how?
At http://i.stack.imgur.com/GIr3Q.png there's the end results I'm trying to obtain. I created "artificially" the blank space between "dui." and "Acknowledgments" by pressing Enter four times.

you can
hijack the footnote functionality (ugly but effective) and play with the footnote styles
insert a text box and position it absolutely (that's what a textbox should be used for) in Word2010 look in Insert ribbon, Text section, Text Icon

Write from right to left in JasperReport?

I am creating an A4 page with a "Text Field" block. How do I write text from right to left? Important: I use English text on one sheet, which should be written from left to right. And also the text in Arabic, which should be written from right to left. I've found similar topics before, but I haven't found a single working method.

How to replicate tumblr tags in flutter

I am trying to replicate the mobile tag-adding mechanism that tumblr has. I have included a picture of the screen I am talking about below.
I want to replicate the following features:
Chips are inline with text field. Text field resizes dynamically to either take the remainder of the line, or take up the next line if the content is too long
Text is turned into a chip when a comma is added (e.g. If I am typing "dog", and then I type "dog,", A "dog" chip will be created
Long chips cut off content with ellipses
Chips can be deleted with backspace
There is no text field underline decoration
Chips fill up row then wrap to next row (and entire container scrolls if there are too many rows to display simultaneously)
There are some libraries that already exist to allow a text input field with chips, but they have a lot of other features that I'm not interested in right now like the recommendation system etc, and generally just don't look the way I want with regards to multiple lines and text wrapping etc. If anyone knows how to replicate the example below, I would really appreciate it!

Crystal reports lines not showing

I have a crystal report for an invoice that is formatted with some horizontal and vertical lines. The vertical lines cut across a number of group and detail sections. Crystal reports is version 13, and I am using it in the designer in Visual Studio 2013.
I have two problems
1) The vertical lines only extend to the beginning of the first detail section on the first page. On subsequent pages they display all the way down the screen.
2) For the second and last row of one of my groups, the vertical lines don't display at all.
I have tried removing the lines and re-adding them, and this has made no difference. I have also tried changing ExtendToBottomOfSection to true for the lines, but this doesn't seem to make any difference. Any other suggestions?
The key thing with lines and boxes in Crystal Reports is the section/area they start in and the section/area they end in. These areas always go in a specific order: Report Header, Page Header, Group Headers, Details, Group Footers, Report Footer, Page Footer.
Depending on the height of the areas, some sections may be bumped to the next page. Most issues I see with lines and boxes are due to them not starting/ending in the right section to give the desired effect on every page, even pages where some sections may be omitted.
If you want lines to span the whole page, they should start at the top of the Page Header area and end in the bottom of the Page Footer.
What I think you're looking for is a slight variation on this (I'm guessing based on your problem description): to run the line down the entire page, but not actually have it appear in the page header/footer. In this case, you will want the line to start at the bottom of the page header, and end at the top of the page footer. This will give the effect of the line covering the page (but not the header/footer), regardless of how many records appear on the page.
These properties are easiest to control from Design view (where it's easier to distinguish section boundaries), or from the properties dialog (where you can make the top/bottom values exact).
Hope this helps!

How do I insert a picture into the top of a page a word document without leaving blank spaces?

I am trying to insert pictures into a word document to be on the TOP of the inserted page.
If I choose "Top Center" or "Top Right/Left", the complete paragraph from the proceeding text jumps to be AFTER the picture, even if it 5+ lines, leaving a BIG empty blank space in the previous page.
If I choose, "In line with text", it looks good, BUT with a single line being proceeding the picture on the top of the inserted page.
I want the layout to be so that a picture be at the top of the page while the proceeding and following text stays fluid, without leaving blanks in between.
Furthermore, how can I move that inserted picture pixel by pixel using the arrows?
PLEASE HELP! It is getting REALLY frustrating, I have around 35 pictures...
Thank you!
You must set the top margin to 0cm.
(double click the blank space or open page settings)
You could use text warpping, choose behind text for around a picture.
Or right click the picture, select text wrapping then select behind text. if u want to move the picture around perfect, just right click, text wrapping, then select tight.
see screenshoot
Just saw this. What I did was insert the image, open "Format Picture" properties, select the "Picture tab" and use the 'Crop from' option to make the area of the picture larger from the bottom (using i.e. -6) which added white space at the bottom, those moving the image to the top of the page. Not great, but it worked.

Crystal: TOC add dots

I try to add dots between the page title and the page number in Crystal Reports for a table of content. I found http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1545153&page=1 in the web, but I wonder if there's a more simple and direct way to get the same result.
I'm using CR shipping with VS 2008.
You could draw a dotted line behind the page title and page number fields, bring the fields to the front, and set their backgrounds to white. It wouldn't quite be the periods you're looking for, but it's a bit less baroque than the other method.
