All Works fine but, rows margin do not cover all height. as shown in attached these two pictures.
How I am doing: I put rectangle in detail band, than sub report and other fields. on all fields, sub-report and rectangle i also apply stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject and isStretchWithOverflow="true" for warping up the text which works fine. I am facing this problem still unresolved.
As per my understanding: sub-Report fields are also stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject but didn't detect or get stretched of its main-report column. while if sub-report need extra space it will show properly. I have tried almost every thing available in iReport-Designer.
Drop figures. Use borders, preferably via report styles.

I am trying to get a field in my parent report to adjust its height dynamically based on the height of a SubReport in the same row. The SubReport could return anywhere from 1 to about 20 rows, and I want the field in the parent report to adjust based on the height of the SubReport.
Further, and I am pretty sure this is not possible, can I center the text in this field vertically? I think CR only allows for horizontal alignment.
This is in CR 2013 sp7
Neither of these are supported by Crystal. Once the report data is generated and ready to display, vertical placement is largely automatic.
In theory, auto-generating line breaks in your field could push things down and simulate vertical alignment, but it would require extensive use of shared variables. Perhaps it's time to consider a different design for your report?
I am importing data from a single data set in my crystal reports. I have just a single column table in my report. I want to arrange some data vertically say 10 rows of the table (In two vertical lines) and some data horizontally say next 10 rows of the same table (In two horizontal lines). I have managed to do the first part that is arranged the vertical lines side by side (By using the option Format With Multiple Columns in the section expert. I am facing difficulty in arranging horizontal lines on the same page (side by side of vertical lines). Any hints how can I achieve this. Any help will be appreciated.
Note: I have tried the subreports method, but was unsuccessful. The subreports shows one row per page for horizontal data and vertical data also limits then one row per page when I use subreports.

Make sure to choose the correct printing direction. Tick `Across then Down':
Go to Section Expert.
Select the section you want to make it multiple column under "Sections" (usually it's 'Details')
Make sure you have "Format with Multiple Columns" is checked under Common Tab
Now you should see Layout Tab on the top right corner, select that.
Set Width to 2" or whatever you want under Detail Size.
Then under "Printing Direction" set "Across then Down" option.
Click OK and you are all set :)
I have a JasperReports report build with iReport. I have the normal Detail band but below i have a textField named observations there is sometimes the Observations textField is empty or NULL. I have put both inner components namely textfields, lines into frames something like.
I also set using Print When Expression the below frame the one who holds the Observations textField to appear only when there is data on it this is working very good but the space holds by the frame is still on the Detail and we are losing some space and it's kind annoyng to see this blank space.
Is it possible for the report to "delete" the idle space hold it by the hidden frame?
My report's design:
The generated result (PDF file):
I don't think it's possible to alter the height of a band depending on its content but you can actually have multiple detail bands. So add a new one, move your observation text field into it and set the print when expression of the second band.
having an issue with iReport/JasperReports and not sure the best way to tackle it. The report is a typical order detail style report with each line item enumerated with attributes like quantity, description, name, price, etc.
However, the problem I would like to solve revolves around displaying optional pictures as part of the line item description. Each line item could have N number of detailed pictures - think of it as multiple images of a product (like under the car hood, the wheels, interior, exterior, etc). The number of images is displayed at run time.
How can I include these dynamic images? I could create placeholders for 9 images, and hide if they aren't passed in, but that would leave blank space for the line items that don't have that many images. I could even combine all of the misc images into one bigger image before I passed to the report, but I still have the sizing issue.
Can't seem to figure out how to have dynamic sizing on the band, while still allowing multiple optional images.
Any ideas out there?
To solve your issue with blank space. You can set the band to not print when there is no data (would require 1 band for each picture/item. Or each component has a property 'Remove Line When Blank' which will compact the space if there is no data/images to show on that horizontal space.
I have a detail band with potentially a lot of text fields in it. It can get too wide to fit on a page. The result is that it just runs off the edge of the page and you can't see it all. I'd like the detail band to wrap around to another line. Is there any way to do this?
My detail band is built dynamically in the code and the number of fields can vary. I tried manually placing the overflowing fields lower in the band by setting their y values, but then if the text in the fields overflows into two lines, my height calculations are off and the results get really messed up.
So is there any way to constrain the band to fit on the page?
Unfortunatelly, the strech types in jasper only works between bands, not within the band.
You can't (even manualy) create a jrxml which will cause a lower element in a band be correctly possitioned when an upper element overflows.
You will need to create more than one detail band. In iReport, you use 'Add another detail band' (on the detail band context-menu). Dynamically, it would look something like:
JRDesignSection detailSection = (JRDesignSection)design.getDetailSection();
JRDesignBand detail2 = new JRDesignBand();
detailSection.addBand(detail2);
Perhaps on your reportElement for each field in the band you need to set the attribute stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject".
<reportElement stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject" ...>
I'm pretty sure that's what works for me.
