Got NullPointerException during editing chart plot at Jaspersoft Studio - jaspersoft-studio

I am trying to access the "Chart Plot" tab of my bar chart in order to change the orientation to horizontal but I'm getting this error with no further details
This error also appears when I click this tab on the other pie chart of the file.
This is the jrxml file:

If possible, do you know how to edit the jrxml file to add the "horizontal" orientation manually?

This seems to be something related to version 6.13.0, it works with version "6.12.2" so I just opened an issue in their bug tracker.
Thanks.

This report works, what I have is this
https://community.jaspersoft.com/sites/default/files/user_uploads/ho.hince/capture_report_test.png
The problem :
The order is vertical. What we can see is Argentina, Brazil, Austria, Canada, etc.. But I want to have Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, etc..
If I change the print order to horizontal, I get the error :
Subreport overflowed on a band that does not support overflow.
The answer Subreport overflowed on a band that does not support overflow tells that I have to use vertical, but I want it horizontal.
How can I solve it? Any ideas or tricks?
The detail band in horizontal reports is not allowed to stretch vertically, so you need to make it tall enough to fit the subreport.
In your report, the subreport element in the master report has height=120. But the subreport has detail band with height=130, plus 20 pixels top margin and 20 bottom margin. So the subreport actually takes 170 pixels in height.
If you set the height of the subreport element in the master report to 170 and the height of the master detail band to 220, it will work with horizontal print order.

The problem is that I have a lot of empty useless space
Subreport
An image of the subreport, with the parameter country set to "France", it contains the first page as below and 7 other empty pages
https://community.jaspersoft.com/sites/default/files/user_uploads/ho.hince/capture.png
MainReport
For the main report, the first two page as below, there is a total of 93 pages, most of them which are empty:
https://community.jaspersoft.com/sites/default/files/user_uploads/ho.hince/capture_0.png
https://community.jaspersoft.com/sites/default/files/user_uploads/ho.hince/capture_1.png
The reason for the white space is that I print the chart in the subreport report once. I do it with the property printWhen.
printWhen => new Boolean($V{REPORT_COUNT}.intValue()==1)
I can't move the chart out of the Detail band, because I've set the subreport properties with Column Count = 2 and Print Order = Horizontal. I did that, cause I wish to have the charts in two column just like that:
https://community.jaspersoft.com/sites/default/files/user_uploads/ho.hince/capture_2.png
(The problem here is that the chart are duplicated)
I found the solution, I was printing the chart only once, but I was printing the Detail band each time, so I had to move the print when expression to the Detail band.
<band height="160">
<printWhenExpression><![CDATA[new Boolean($V{REPORT_COUNT}.intValue()==1)]]></printWhenExpression>
The main chart must have two column in vertical order, and the subreport 2 column in horizontal order.
EDIT
You can also change the main report properties :Print Order ==> vertical and Column Count ==> 2

How can I avoid "line breaking up" with line chart-JasperReport?

I am using Jaspersoft Studio version 6.3.0.final with JasperReports Library version 6.3.0 . I'm creating a Line chart with different series and category values. My question is that, when the graph is plotted, I observed that if for one category there are no values for a particular series, the line breaks and the line starts again from the next data point.
Is there anyway in which we can connect ALL the points in a particular series, so that it will be one continuous single line instead of broken lines and dots ?
I put an image as an example of what I get and I want to do and my .jrxml file for the line chart.

I have designed below bar chart in jaspersoft studio, but its not the one what i want. My expected result is given below. Even this may be the basic question, since i am totally new to this report/chart generation work. So it would be much appreciated if someone guide me to get the desired result.

JasperReports + MultiAxisChart - chart stays blank

I have a report using JasperReports 5.2.2. This contains embedded charts - a line chart, a bar chart and a multi-axis chart. The line and bar chart both work well, but the multi-axis chart just stays blank, as if it's not receiving its dataset. The report was designed using Jaspersoft Studio. The three datasets are being passed in as parameters, and all contain the exact same data (three JRBeanCollectionDataSources with the same data).
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Below is the JRXML file.
