Jasper report - Collapsible Input section - jasperserver

Is there a way to make the input section (filters) collapsible while viewing the report in jasper? This is to get a wider view of the entire report. The input section takes away some space. So, once I select my filters, I would want a mechanism to collapse it. Is there a way for this?
Thanks
Rathi

If you right-click the report in the repository browser and choose Edit, you can customize how the input controls layout in the report viewer, for example you could choose Pop-up window.
See here for a description of all the layouts: https://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation/tibco-jasperreports-server-ultimate-guide/v640/customizing-report-rendering-page

There is a way. You can use "Input Controls" icon available in the Report Viewer Tool Bar to show/ hide the filters for a report. See image here:
Show-Hide Input controls
Alternatively, if you got Commercial edition of Jasper Reports Server, you can create your own custom report viewer page to add auto hide feature for input controls (filters) and can embed reports inside it using Visualize.js.

Active Reports: Copy paste issue

I have generated a report in active reports.
After the report is dispayed in the report viewer, I copied the report by clicking on the Copy button and tried to paste in a word document.
I have some horizontal lines in my report, when I check the copied data in word, the horizntal lines are over lapping on some of the text dispalyed in report.
Is there any way to overcome this problem?
I have attached the screen shot of the report's actual layout and the issue I am facing after pasting the report layout in a word document.
Regards,

Could you please send your RPX/RDLX file to ComponentOne support using ComponentOne support forum or support E-Mail address supportone#componentone.com? In the meanwhile you may use the following options to get the desired results.
If you are using ActiveReports 8 then you can use the activate the snapshot mode in the viewer, select the content from viewer and this will create an image of the selection. You can later paste image this in Word, Paint, Excel etc. Since this is an image it will be obviously not editable.
If you are looking to get editable content, then you may make use of the RtfExport filter available in ActiveReports.
Hope this helps.

How to give hyperlink in HTML 5 Chart in iReport

I want to give hyperlink in HTML 5 Chart, so that If I click anywhere in the chart area , that should be redirected to the different report.
How can I achieve this in iReport?
A Jaspersoft employee just directed me to this article on the wiki. Summary of the article:
Edit Chart Properties->Chart Data->Data Axes
Under Categories, click to add/modify the one you want
Click the properties tab, and then "Add"
Give a name, such as "myUrl" and then enter the URL and close it
Under measure, select the one you want to link and click Hyperlink
Double click each to edit as you wish
If you want a different report depending on the slice, you'll need to set the URL expression in a property for the category bucket. The bucket properties weren't showing up for me, but I figured out you can type it in as bucket_name.property_name (say bucket was named urlBucket and property was myUrl: urlBucket.myUrl). If it is one report for the entire report, you can set it as a constant in the measure hyperlink.
Usually if you right click in any charts in Ireport and select "hyperlink" .
There you can add the hyperlink details like which report you want to add and pass parameters from main report to child report.
You can refer this link
(But i am not sure about HTML5 charts because I use community edition and in community edition we don't have HTML5 charts)

How to align parameters Textbox in SSRS 2008

I have read in MSDN it says that...
1.Parameters pane: The report viewer toolbar displays a prompt and default value for each parameter. Parameter layout on the toolbar is formatted automatically. The order is determined by the order that parameters appear in the Report Data pane.
It is not possible to change the design of the parameters textbox?
No, it is not possible to change the design of the parameters textbox if you are using SSRS out of the box. If you want to customize the layout, you need to design a Web/Windows form and create your own layout for parameters and use the ReportViewer control to which you pass the parameters via code and then display the report.
The below 'dirty' way worked for me. If you already have the parameters built then delete them and rebuild them
Step1: Create the paramters in the report data window in the order which you want them to be display left to right(and they overflow into the row below)
Step2: Assign the parameters in the same order in the dataset.

Making on demand sub report hyperlink invisible

I have a report with an embedded hyperlink to an on demand sub report. I am trying to make the hyperlink invisible and then place it on top of a text object so that when a user clicks on the text object, the link activates and takes the user to the sub report. i tried formatting the sub report font to crNocolor in the formula bar, but it did nt seem to work. Thanks
Why not enter the link details into the Hyperlink section of the text object in Format Editor?
Click on your text object and Right click->Format Text->Hyperlink and you'll see the panel as shown below (picture is from the Standalone CR Developer XI). I've never used this feature, but can you use it to link to your on-demand report?

how to create watermark background in crystal report?

hello
i want to create watermark background in crystal report.
one way is:
1- On the Report menu, click Section Expert.
The Section Expert dialog box appears.
2- In the Sections list, click Page Header, then select the Underlay Following Sections check box.
3- Click OK to preview the report again.
but in this solution lines and boxes in report design page appear back of background image.
what is better solution?
the solution to this problem is make a subreport, the main report will only have the watermark on page header A, and the subreport on page header B
Your method is the best way to do it, as far as I know.
On your background don't forget to right-click->move->to back. That should put the background image in the back and all other report elements in the front.
