I have a vertical text in my column header.
The text in the header should be able to be divided into two rows so that I can keep the size height of the column header.
What I'm trying to do, is to position the header text so that it aligns to the center of the row values below.
First, I tried to change Line Spacing in the Format Editor. This works, except when the header text needs two rows to fit the column header.
So, I thought that adding a blank row before the header text could solve this issue.
How can I do this?

I have a structure like bellow which consist of one static text and two text fields. The text fields should expand relative to their content. I need to adjust them in a way that these three elements expand together. Should I keep them in one band? What should be the stretch type for each?
Put all three elements in a band.
Set the Stretch Type of Static Text to Relative To Band Height.
Set the same for text field 1.
Set the same for text field 2 and additionally set Position Type to Float.
I have a JasperReport file with the basic header/detail/footer bands. In my Details, I have a Column Header row in a Grid Layout and a Detail Row, also in a GridLayout. I'm having a few issues with this Detail section. I have 3 columns that I'm hiding with an expression using printWhenExpression=$P{Exp1}. This works to hide the field, but the rest of the columns in the detail section don't adjust to this. So I'm left with a giant blank column in the middle of my detail section.
I'm coming from Crystal Reports where I could just suppress fields and the CR would adjust widths as necessary. I can't seem to find anything to do the same with JasperReports, which doesn't make much sense since I would expect a GridLayout to try and fill up the space as needed. So is there any way to have a table/grid like layout that will adjust column widths to fill the available space when a field is hidden.
I have a unique requirement where I need to display all the contents of an attribute in a sub-grid. This attribute stores multiple line of text i.e. a few paragraphs of text. The maximum column length of 300px is not enough to display such text without cutting off.
Is there a way I can increase the row height in sub-grids so that long text warps into multiple lines?
No I don't believe this is possible. The row height is fixed.
I have a JasperReports report build with iReport. I have the normal Detail band but below i have a textField named observations there is sometimes the Observations textField is empty or NULL. I have put both inner components namely textfields, lines into frames something like.
I also set using Print When Expression the below frame the one who holds the Observations textField to appear only when there is data on it this is working very good but the space holds by the frame is still on the Detail and we are losing some space and it's kind annoyng to see this blank space.
Is it possible for the report to "delete" the idle space hold it by the hidden frame?
My report's design:
The generated result (PDF file):
I don't think it's possible to alter the height of a band depending on its content but you can actually have multiple detail bands. So add a new one, move your observation text field into it and set the print when expression of the second band.
In my table I have repeating value.
I have put isPrintRepeatedValues=false to avoid the repeat values. It was success but I found that the left border is missing for the left cell in a row.
How to make to cover his line for a repeat row only?
The result would be as at the picture (highlighting area) below:
