Stretch with overflow Detail band not working as expected - jasper-reports

Question

I have a simple report. It has two bands title and detail.
In the Title I have a static text, in the Detail I have one textField.
The textField is set to stretchwithoverflow = "true". If I set the height for this field to fit one raw information, I get for the larger information one and a half rows. So one textField, in the textField I have 2 rows information, first row displayed correctly, second one - I can see a half height.
Can this be done? Expand only the rows that contain larger information and the larger information will fit well in the text field?

Answer 1

In the same band if there are more items and you want to have all same stretched. It has to be set to all of them to stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject" and isStretchWithOverflow="true".
<textField isStretchWithOverflow="true" pattern="###0">
<reportElement stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject" x="1576" y="0" width="91" height="20"/>
<textElement textAlignment="Center"/>
<textFieldExpression class="java.lang.Long"><![CDATA[$F{count_tohfa}]]></textFieldExpression>
</textField>

Answer 2

Report property: Add this
net.sf.jasperreports.text.save.line = true
net.sf.jasperreports.export.html.wrap.break.word = true
