Remove space between detail and last page footer - jasper-reports

How i can remove the space between detail and last page footer in JasperReports?
I need to remove the white space between them
I use this code for lastpagefooter
<lastPageFooter>
<band height="187">
<staticText>
<reportElement x="125" y="0" width="68" height="20" uuid="d7bc9c8a-c20b-4f79-8515-639609ead0cc"/>

Sum columns based on custom group (Jasper Reports) [duplicate]

First of all, the records are shown in the table by table component but not in the report one.
The results looks like this:

The sumquarter column shows the sum of each quarter in year.
They are not printed when it repeated the value of the field.
The question is how to group the column of sumquarter, so that the first printed repeated value in each row to join the next repeated value to become a single cell until it meets the non-repeated value?
You can simply see it in an image.
Below is the image that the table shows and the solution that I preferred is to group those 3 months of sum into a single cell.
Here is the image:

The result will be (in pdf format):
In this sample I've used two elements in the Detail band for the Year column:
one textField with only vertical borders and with printWhenExpression: "$V{yearGroup_COUNT} == 1" property (I'm show it only once for the whole yearGroup) and one staticText without any text and with only vertical borders.
I've used three elements in the Detail band for the Quarter Sum column:
one textField with only vertical borders and with printWhenExpression: "$V{quaterGroup_COUNT} == 1" property (I'm show it only once for the whole quaterGroup), one staticText without any text and with only vertical borders and the line element for drawing horizontal border with printWhenExpression: "$V{quaterGroup_COUNT} == 1" property.

One character is coming in next line

Some attribute character is coming in the next line.it should come in one line
Example:
Student looking like
Student
but name is looking like
nam
e

How to make the detail band, matches the content of the textfield containing?

I have a detail band in my jasper report, but this band does not fit the contents of the field to which you sent the most text, then this container detail band and fields he owns.
I have placed all the fields in the detail band the following properties:
Position Type = Float
Stretch Type = Relative to Tallest Object
Stretch With Overflow = check
For band detail I have placed the following property:
Split Type = Stretch
I may be doing wrong, or should I place additional?

Removing the space when hiding the column

I am using JasperReports 4.5.0 to generate the reports. I am generating the reports in different formats like html, csv, pdf, xls, doc. In one of my report I have 6 columns say col1, col2, col3, col4, col5, col6. But based on the condition I want to hide the col4. For this I am using the printWhenExpression. Now it is hiding the column based on the condition but the problem is the space occupied by that column is remaining same.
How can I remove this empty space in between the col3 and col5?
The below code is for understanding how i am using it.
<staticText>
<reportElement x="500" y="0" width="0" height="20" isRemoveLineWhenBlank="true" isPrintWhenDetailOverflows="true">
<printWhenExpression><![CDATA[$P{routeType}==Boolean.FALSE]]></printWhenExpression>
</reportElement>
<box>
<topPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
<leftPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
<bottomPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
</box>
<textElement textAlignment="Center" verticalAlignment="Middle">
<font size="12" isBold="true"/>
</textElement>
<text><![CDATA[Col4]]></text>
</staticText>
<textField isBlankWhenNull="true">
<reportElement x="500" y="0" width="0" height="20" isRemoveLineWhenBlank="true" isPrintWhenDetailOverflows="true">
<printWhenExpression><![CDATA[$P{routeType}==Boolean.FALSE]]></printWhenExpression>
</reportElement>
<box>
<leftPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
<bottomPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
</box>
<textElement textAlignment="Center" verticalAlignment="Middle"/>
<textFieldExpression><![CDATA[$F{col4}]]></textFieldExpression>
</textField>
This field will print only if the routeType value is false.Otherwise it should remove the column with empty space also.
You can use JasperReports API or DynamicJasper API
Here is the samples of using DynamicJasper API
You can use "fake" field (textField) for showing data of one column instead of showing two fields (two columns)
You can put another textField (which has the width of two textFields) under the both textFields. Using printWhenExpression property you can show two columns or one.
Here is the working sample.
Here is my report's design (in iReport):
My jrxml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jasperReport ..>
<parameter name="hideStreetColumn" class="java.lang.Boolean">

</jasperReport>
To show all three columns we should set hideStreetColumn parameter to false. The result will be:
To show only two columns (the Street column is hiding) we should set hideStreetColumn parameter to true. The result will be:
You can trick it with two detail bands. One detail band B1 with 6 columns and the second band B2 with 5 columns. Then in the band properties print B1 when printWhenExpression is false and B2 when printWhenExpression is true.

Hiding the field in jasper report

I am working with jasper report-4.5.0.I want to hide a field in jasper based on the flag value.Below is tha code which i am using in columnHeader band.
<staticText>
<reportElement x="365" y="0" width="100" height="20"/>
<box>
<topPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
<leftPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
<bottomPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
<rightPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
</box>
<textElement textAlignment="Center" verticalAlignment="Middle">
<font isBold="true"/>
</textElement>
<text><![CDATA[TotalCharge]]></text>
</staticText>
and below code i am using in detail band.
<textField>
<reportElement x="365" y="0" width="100" height="20">
<printWhenExpression><![CDATA[!$P{dataType}]]></printWhenExpression>
</reportElement>
<box>
<leftPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
<bottomPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
<rightPen lineWidth="0.25"/>
</box>
<textElement textAlignment="Right" verticalAlignment="Middle">
<font size="8"/>
</textElement>
<textFieldExpression><![CDATA[$F{chargeTotal}]]></textFieldExpression>
</textField>
i am declaring the parameter in jrxml as
<parameter name="dataType" class="java.lang.Boolean"/>
the value to this parameter is coming from java class.If it is the false value i dont want to display this chargeTotal column.What i am doing wrong in my code.I am not getting.Any one can point me where i am doing wrong its urgent to me.
The code snippets you provided for the textfield look correct, but if you are wanting to hide the column header also you need to also add a printWhenExpression for it.
