Text Field dynamic height in JasperReports 6.12.2 - jasper-reports

I'm currently working in a API that will generate reports (with JasperReports 6.12.2), in this case I have to print a large String in a text field, the problem is that I can't give the appropiate behaviour to this element to adjust the height to the String size.
I've been searching before to ask, and all that I've found was about the property isStretchWithOverflow="true", but isn't working for me because in my version this is deprecated and replaced with textAdjust="StretchHeight" so basically all the results finish with the same, the text is cutted by the text field.
Note: Also I have to say that this necessity of dynamism is because i need to paginate the report.
Element Text Field JRXML code:
<textField textAdjust="StretchHeight">
<reportElement positionType="Float" stretchType="RelativeToBandHeight" x="0" y="190" width="555" height="321" isPrintWhenDetailOverflows="true"/>
<textFieldExpression><![CDATA[$P{text}]]></textFieldExpression>

After a while trying to solve this issue I've found the problem.
Recently Jasper Reports upgraded the version to v6.11 (Published: 2019-Dec-12), in this version Jaspersoft® Studio changed the property isstretchwithoverflow is replaced by textAdjust, so the problem was related with the version, and I realized that my Jasper reports library was in an older version v6.2, where the propertie textAdjust doesn't even exist.
So if anyone else is having this problem, please, check your library version, if it's under version 6.11 and your editor plugin is version 6.11 or higher, you will not be able to overflow texts and paginate properly.

The property isStretchWithOverflow was replaced in the JasperReports Library 6.10.0 by the textAdjust property. So to achieve the dynamic stretching effect, you need to set textAdjust="StretchHeight".
If you set your compatibility settings in Jaspersoft Studio ("Window > Preferences > Jaspersoft Studio > Compatibility") accordingly, it will automatically change the property to the compatible version, i.e. textAdjust="StretchHeight" will automatically be exchanged for isStretchWithOverflow="true" when you select a version <= JasperReports 6.5.1.

Extra blank page after page with list

Here is my JRXML On the second page I created a table using the nested list. In Preview in Jaspersoft Studio everything looks good, but after generating PDF on the page where my nested list is, an empty page is added. I have no idea how I can fix this problem.
I tried:
Remove Line When Blank - for lists and fields.
When No Data Type - all options tried and tested.
I have a problem with generating an additional blank page in PDF. Our company system does not support generating reports from subreports to multiple pages. As a workaround, a 43 page printout was created and each page is divided by "Page Break". This works well. My data source is an XML file.
I've tried to solve previously given here in similar problems but it doesn't help.
I don't want to generate this empty page.

Any ideas guys? Maybe you need more details?
Maybe this will help you:
Set the split Typ of the detail band to Stretch:
splitType="Stretch"

We had a similar problem. If the a list was the last item in the page in same cases a blank page was added.
When we added the whole list to a new band the empty page disappeared.

According to the above group expression, I expect only one header for a group, But I see the group header for the same group is repeated in my output file ! Please let me know what I am doing wrong.
Thanks in Advance.
So there is an issue that happens when you use multiple group headers. The first header behaves like expected ordered by Column Value A only on unique values.
The 2nd header using Column Value B will print on every row despite being non-unique values.
In theory you should be able to use:
1.
ORDER BY ValueA, ValueB
to properly display the report assuming you are using sql, plsql, etc...
However, in my case that did not happen, though for others it seems to work.
2.
Use subreports to attach the minor differences via unique reports.
You create a root report with empty details.
Then you create Unique reports to serve as sub reprots.
Finally, you use the subreport element to link the values into the root report. Though that is a good bit of work and may cause repeat code.
A hacky way I used was:
A mixture of "Print When Expressions" with logical boolean like below
$F{QUERY}.equals(Query1) && ($P{P_Typequery}.equalsIgnoreCase("QueryA") && $P{P_parameter} == null)
and
$F{QUERY}.equals(Query1) && ($P{P_Typequery}.equalsIgnoreCase("P_QueryA") && $P{P_parameter} != null)
with two group headers and a column header. The column header will not repeat for every row so you assign one of the booleans expressions to it's "print when" so it does not always print. The first group header will not repeat for every row and works. The 2nd group header is used for the times you DO want it to repeat for every unique value since it always prints for every row, and you use the other boolean on it's "print when".
Hope it helps

JasperReports: Headers Not In The Same Line

The header of the report consists 10 elements it should look like this:
|1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10|
|--------------------|
In reality it look like this:
|1 2 8 9 10|
|---3 4 5 6 7 ------|
Is this something to do with the verticalAligment? I have set it to Bottom.
The snippet from my jrxml file:
<pageHeader>
<band height="0" isSplitAllowed="true" >
</band>
</pageHeader>
<columnHeader>
<band height="39" isSplitAllowed="true" >

Without seeing your JRXML file, the best guess would be one (or combination) of two things:
You do not have the vertical alignment set to Bottom for the fields 1,2,8,9,10.
You do not have the same height set for 1,2,8,9,10.
In addition to those two, you do not have the tops set at the same Top value set for all the elements. Again this is all a best guess without being able to see your JRXML. If it is not one of those you will need to post it, so we can help.
I have tried the stretch type, position type, flot etc.... bottom, asTallest, all sort of thing, it seems nothing worked
what I did was
to change the height of the which around all me header ReportElements from 39 to 20
and each height from 30 to 15
increase some width, make sure they are wide enough
the height 15 kind of forced the texts to stay in one line, give them no space to float,
I feel its a kind of ugly fix, my instinct tells me it must not be the greatest solution, but it works and I need finish it by today. free to post answers, I will accept yours if it works, and much more elegant.
please see the Y Position. It is not same for all heading. you give Y position 0 for 1, 2, 8, 9, 10 and y=1 for remaing item. please make sure all position is same.

How to display page x of y in my jasper report

I am generating the reports using jasperreport-4.5.0.It is generating the report properly.But if i have huge data in my database then the report vl display in different pages.So my requirement is if my report has 12 pages then i want to display page 1 of 12,page 2 of 12,page 3 of 12....like this in my page header band.How can i do this can any one give an idea regarding this.
You can use the evaluationTime="Report" attribute to achieve this.
Consider the following example, we first print "PAGE" then we print the page number using the default evalutaionTime attribute. This will print the current page number, then we print OF and finally the page number with evaluation time set to "report" which will print the total number of pages.
<band height="20">
<elementGroup>
<textField>
<reportElement positionType="FixRelativeToBottom" x="709" y="0" width="53" height="20"/>
<textElement verticalAlignment="Top">
<font size="12"/>

<textFieldExpression><![CDATA["PAGE"]]></textFieldExpression>
</textField>
