Borders doubling up on Jasper report - jasper-reports

I may be approaching this the wrong way but I've created a few Jasper reports now (Eclipse plugin) which I am exporting variously to pdf, docx and odt. The only way I've found to create 'tables' is to position adjacent text boxes. I've noticed that I get lines of double thickness if I leave borders overlapping (i.e upper box has a solid bottom border and lower box has a solid upper border), even if I position them on top of each other.
So far no problem as I have been configuring the borders to not overlap (i.e. where 2 text boxes overlap I leave one of the borders as transparent). However one of my sub reports is just a repeating box in the detail section though so I can't do this here or the bottom or top would be missing. I'm assuming this must come up a lot ? Is there a way around this ?
I must admit I haven't tried setting the bottom border blank yet and adding a line at the bottom of the 'table' as I'm hoping there may be a more appropriate technique ?
Apologies if this isn't clear. Please let me know if not.
Thanks,

How to Remove on Vertical Gridlines in Tableau Desktop App

I would like to only remove the vertical gridlines from a Tableau chart. I am aware that I can go to Format > Lines > Gridlines > Set to NONE. But this removes both vertical and horizontal gridlines. I am trying to only remove the vertical gridlines. (See the screenshot. I have made the gridlines little darker to demonstrate my question).
I looked around, but could not find a solution. Please help.
On the Column Divider from the Format Boarders menu, move the Level slider to the left.
Result:
At the top of the format pane in the left side bar, don't select the Borders icon (which looks like a little grid) Instead, select the Lines icon just to the right (which looks like a set of different width lines)
The Borders settings control the display of borders between cells and panes, i.e. the parts of the view created when putting discrete (blue) fields on the Rows or Columns shelves.
The Lines settings control the display of the axis, grid and other lines, i.e. the parts of the view created when putting continuous (green) fields on the Rows or Columns shelves.
Once you are working with the Lines format settings, you can scope your changes to either just the vertical grid lines, just the horizontal grid lines, or both by selecting Sheet, Rows or Columns from the tab just under the icons discussed above.
Experiment to get the hang of it. Whenever you change a setting from the default value, the title goes bold. You can right click on bold titles to clear the change, or you can clear all the changes to a section by hitting clear at the bottom of the format pane. So its easy to undo a change you don't like, allowing you to experiment with confidence to learn how the settings work.

Miscoloured lines in rule-based layer styling in QGIS

I'm styling a vector layer of roads and have noticed that a small subset of lines appear to be going 'rogue' and ignoring their line colour styling. They still obey the line stroke and width style however but insist on being yellow instead of the desired colour.
I've added a separate rule for one of them and it definitely 'catches' the correct line segment and restyles it in every way EXCEPT for the colour which stubbornly remains yellow.
Can anyone provide me with any clues as to what is going on here?
That line (or lines) are "selected" - You have one of the selection tools active and have clicked on the line. See the manual for more details, you need to click on the clear selection tool
to remove it.

Trying to reduce the size of boxes on screen

I am trying to setup a style based on bootstrap3.
Basically I want to try and reduce the size of the input elements which I have done, getting a decent proportion of 'box' vs 'text'.
However if I use the same font-size in a select box with the same size then I get a situation where the text is masked along the bottom edge...
I think there is a tiny bit more margin at the top of the select box, but for the life of me I cant find where that is set in BootStrap to change it (if at all).
I think all I need to do is move the text in the 'select' element up by a couple of pixels and it will align with those bits of text in standard text boxes....
Can anyone point me in the right direct please?
Found the associated CSS in the bootstrap, with a bit of trial and error....
Mainly in the 'form-control' section.
but now also using Bootstrap 4, with a couple of additional styles.

Vertical Align Crystal Report Text Filed

I have a scenario in which my reports fields doesn't look like centered Vertically,
Below is the screen Short of the output.
As it can bee seen from output that data with a bigger font is clearly seen centered vertically, but the data pointed with lines is left-top justified, i want that to be left-centered.
For vertical alignment I did this .
and code behind formula is:
if {NewReport;1.TireLevel} = 1
then
crCenteredHorizontally
else
crLeftAligned
The Editor Screen.
Sadly, Crystal Reports doesn't support vertical alignment in the same way it supports horizontal.
It's possible to use labels on the vertical ruler and enforce Snap to Grid, but that might not work within a table. Or you can add line breaks, blank rows, or plain white objects to push things into position. But there's no easy way to enforce a vertical center.
In your particular case, I would actually make two seperate fields: One for large text and one for small text. Layer them on top of each other and reuse your current formula to alternate their suppression. This way you can move the smaller text vertically down without undoing the vertical alignment on the large text field.

Background changes color when hovering

So I have a grid in Zkoss with a certain amount of columns. One the first row I place two labels which fill the first two columns (as expected).
I've written their style so that they don't have change color when you hover the mouse over them however one of the columns label is much bigger than the other and when I hover the mouse over the smaller label the area around which isn't filled by the text goes to white.
ZKFiddle example
I'm going insane around this as I'm simply unable of making that area have the same background as the label.
Like I already said in your duplicated question.
CSS is responsible and you just need to search with developer tools.
This update to your fiddle tooks me 2 min.
The changed thing :
.z-row:hover > .z-row-inner, .z-row:hover > .z-cell {background:red; !important}
