No, there is nothing but the comment:
"Print repeated values specifies that recurring values are printed."

I have had a look at your test-case. You have the repeted values in one
data-row - you repeated the same field in the same row and then it is
supressed. Don't know an example for such a report.

When I saw, that I can change labelflieds also with this property and they are
not shown any more, the only really bug is, that this property has nothing to
do with label-fields and must not be written there.

The only thing that could be done: let's put away this property from the
label-fields. We don't need a label-field, which would never be printed - and
that is, what the property makes with such a field.
