Jasper Report Heading on new page - jasper-reports

Question

I have a report that contains lists that I iterate over to display a title and then some contents. If the contents are too long the report spans more than 1 page. Depending on how much space this left on the overflow page the title is displayed on the overflow page or pushed to the following page. I always want it to be pushed to the following page. I have tried to use elementGroup and group to try and make sure that everything is keep together, but nothing seems to work. The report looks like this:

It's this section <textFieldExpression><![CDATA["Object: " + $F{instr}]]></textFieldExpression> that I also want to be displayed at the start of a new page. Can I use isPrintInFirstWholeBand="true" on the reportElement? I can't seem to get this to work or a group with keepTogether="true" or isStartNewPage="true". Not sure what to use. Just want each Object: value to be displayed at the start of a new page.

Answer 1

try using isIgnorePagination="true" property
or check Ignore Pagination in Report where you set Page Format and so...
