Text Field dynamic height in JasperReports 6.12.2

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"/>

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.

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

Building Jasperreport Textfield message with multiple parameters and types

Im trying to create a message in a textfield which uses a localized string in a properties file. The string has 5 parameters, 1 string, 2 numbers and 2 dates.
For some reason i get this message when trying to compile it.
The method msg(String, Object) in the type JREvaluator is not applicable for the arguments (String, String, Integer, Integer, Date, Date)
Here is the textfield
<textField isStretchWithOverflow="true" isBlankWhenNull="true">
<reportElement uuid="5c7c4cab-cbd4-4c0b-8393-c3b5ba3bc856" positionType="Float" x="0" y="0" width="530" height="20"/>
<textElement>
<font size="14" isBold="true"/>
</textElement>
<textFieldExpression><![CDATA[msg($R{report.title},$P{QUERY_LEGAL_ENTITY_NAME},
$P{QUERY_START_ACCOUNT_NUMBER},
$P{QUERY_END_ACCOUNT_NUMBER},
$P{QUERY_START_DATE},
$P{QUERY_END_DATE}
)]]></textFieldExpression>
</textField>
And here is the properties string
report.title=Finanskonti for {0} | Konti: {1, number} - {2,number} | Datoer: {3,date} - {4,date}
Got any ideas what im doing wrong
I got it working using this code
<textField isStretchWithOverflow="true" isBlankWhenNull="true">
<reportElement uuid="5c7c4cab-cbd4-4c0b-8393-c3b5ba3bc856" positionType="Float" x="0" y="0" width="530" height="20"/>
<textElement>
<font size="14" isBold="true"/>
</textElement>
<textFieldExpression><![CDATA[msg($R{report.title}, new Object[]{$P{QUERY_LEGAL_ENTITY_NAME},
$P{QUERY_START_ACCOUNT_NUMBER},
$P{QUERY_END_ACCOUNT_NUMBER},
(new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy")).format($P{QUERY_START_DATE}),
(new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy")).format($P{QUERY_END_DATE})}
)]]></textFieldExpression>
</textField>
hope someone else can use it.

How to set x, y for a textElement in JasperReports depending on if above textElement is empty. And if non-empty show it down to the that textelement

Requirement:
If firstName and lastName is non empty. Show this at x=125, y=3 coordinates.
And show address down to it at x="125" y="26" coordinate. This is working fine.
Problem: If firstName/lastName are empty, Then we need to move the address element up and show it at x=125, y=3 coordinate itself.
This is where I am stuck. Please help me.

You have already set the isRemoveLineWhenBlank attribute, which will remove the empty space left by the textField. However, JasperReports cannot collapse vertical space unless that space is completely clear. If there is another element occupying the same line (in your case the staticText element), the empty space will be preserved. This is a bit like playing Tetris in reverse; You have to get rid of all of the blocks before the line will disappear.
Putting report elements into frames modifies this behaviour slightly. It is only the width of the parent frame that needs to be clear, instead of the width of the whole report. Therefore, by putting your name and address fields into a separate frame, the space occupied by the name field can collapse despite being aligned horizontally with the static text. I have modified your code snippet to demonstrate this:
<frame>
<reportElement key="frame-462" positionType="Float" mode="Transparent" x="0" y="50" width="390" height="70"/>
<frame>
<reportElement x="126" y="0" width="264" height="70"/>

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.
