I need to insert a lot of "*" in the blank space at the end of my page.
The lines are auto height.
I need it to look like this:
There is a band in the report called the "background" band.
You can maximize it's height to fit an entire page (right click it > "Maximize band height"). Then, you fill this band with lots of "*" in it's entire extension.
Now, you must make sure that the other elements in the other bands (your data) are not transparent, but opaque, so the "*" won't appear in the background of your data, but only in the rest of the page where things would be blank.

All Works fine but, rows margin do not cover all height. as shown in attached these two pictures.
How I am doing: I put rectangle in detail band, than sub report and other fields. on all fields, sub-report and rectangle i also apply stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject and isStretchWithOverflow="true" for warping up the text which works fine. I am facing this problem still unresolved.
As per my understanding: sub-Report fields are also stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject but didn't detect or get stretched of its main-report column. while if sub-report need extra space it will show properly. I have tried almost every thing available in iReport-Designer.
Drop figures. Use borders, preferably via report styles.
Data that we get from data source is not shown in detail band. But make some processing for each of records and processing result is shown in Group footer.
So I cannot remove detail band, as it is the only place for processing individual record. But I want to hide it, making invisible.
If I use printWhenExpression, it causes not only hiding the detail band but also no processing is done for records.
What I want is just hide(making invisible and do not make any blank) but processing is done for each iteration. If possible, may I know how to do it.
Remove all elements (static text, text field and so on) from detail band and set height = 0 px at detail band property
You can either set its height to 0 px in the properties section on the right side
OR
You can Right click > delete band. (The band can later be added back if needed).
here's what I am trying to accomplish:
I'm working on a single page report using Crystal Reports 2008, and at the bottom right corner of a page, I have a subreport that puts 1/2" square bitmap images in details-band columns that might print one image, or up to five horizontally. Right now, they print left to right.
What I would like to do is have them start from the right side of the subreport, i.e. the first image in the right corner, and additional ones print to the left. Is there a way to make this happen? I've tried changing Section Expert > Details/Layout > Printing Direction between the options "Across then Down", and "Down and Across", no luck with that.
thanks in advance
I was able to get this approach to work:
create a subreport that contains the image in the Details section. Add a suppression formula to the Details section that reads: RecordNumber<>1;
hide all sections but the Details section
size the subreport to fit the image (1/2" width)
move the subreport to the right edge of the relevant section
link the main report to the subreport
right click the subreport and save it to your Desktop
insert a subreport and choose the one that you just saved
size it to fit the image and move it adjacent to the first one
edit the subreport, hide the non-Details section, change the Details' suppression formula to RecordNumber<>2
repeat steps 5-9 for the remaining 3 images (changing the suppression formula)
The idea is that each subreport retrieves all of the image row for the related row in main report. you suppress all rows in each subreport but the one that you want to display.
I currently have a report in SSRS that has a large blank area on the first page if I print it or export to PDF. There is no blank space when I view it in html. The report has two main sections, first a rectangle then a tablix. There is a blank space after the rectangle on the first page that pushes the tablix to the second page because it is trying to keep the tablix together. I have KeepTogether = 'False' on the tablix. My desired result is for the tablix data to be partially on page 1 and to spill over into page 2 so that there is no blank space. I know that there may not be an exact solution to this problem but if someone could point me in the right direction I would be much obliged.
The easiest solution I did was to add a new row to the top of the tablix and then to move the rectangle and it's contents into that row. I guess that it counts the tablix as one chunk of content that cannot be separated and that's why all of the content in the tablix was getting pushed to a new page.
I have a detail band with potentially a lot of text fields in it. It can get too wide to fit on a page. The result is that it just runs off the edge of the page and you can't see it all. I'd like the detail band to wrap around to another line. Is there any way to do this?
My detail band is built dynamically in the code and the number of fields can vary. I tried manually placing the overflowing fields lower in the band by setting their y values, but then if the text in the fields overflows into two lines, my height calculations are off and the results get really messed up.
So is there any way to constrain the band to fit on the page?
Unfortunatelly, the strech types in jasper only works between bands, not within the band.
You can't (even manualy) create a jrxml which will cause a lower element in a band be correctly possitioned when an upper element overflows.
You will need to create more than one detail band. In iReport, you use 'Add another detail band' (on the detail band context-menu). Dynamically, it would look something like:
JRDesignSection detailSection = (JRDesignSection)design.getDetailSection();
JRDesignBand detail2 = new JRDesignBand();
detailSection.addBand(detail2);
Perhaps on your reportElement for each field in the band you need to set the attribute stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject".
<reportElement stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject" ...>
I'm pretty sure that's what works for me.
