How to increase Height and Width of Crosstab Cells in Crystal report dynamically according to text size. I have already checked the "Can grow" property to true for individual cells but have no change.
I am new in crystal reports. Please help me.
Don't think you can. You only get to set the height and width of one crosstab cell at design time. You may have to consider a different approach that 'simulates' different column widths in the crosstab.

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?
Say that a jasper report should be generated to a thermal printer. The detail band may be 1 row or 200+ rows.
How to generate jasper report with its height fitting to the row count instead of printing white-spaces in the end?
Set the pageHeight to just one row and then use
isIgnorePagination="true"
When isIgnorePagination is true the report will be generated in a
single page.
Hence, if just one row, it will have the height of one row, if more rows it will not create new pages but generate a continues layout.
For example see: http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/sample.reference/nopagebreak/
I have a JasperReport file with the basic header/detail/footer bands. In my Details, I have a Column Header row in a Grid Layout and a Detail Row, also in a GridLayout. I'm having a few issues with this Detail section. I have 3 columns that I'm hiding with an expression using printWhenExpression=$P{Exp1}. This works to hide the field, but the rest of the columns in the detail section don't adjust to this. So I'm left with a giant blank column in the middle of my detail section.
I'm coming from Crystal Reports where I could just suppress fields and the CR would adjust widths as necessary. I can't seem to find anything to do the same with JasperReports, which doesn't make much sense since I would expect a GridLayout to try and fill up the space as needed. So is there any way to have a table/grid like layout that will adjust column widths to fill the available space when a field is hidden.
I am using crystal 10.2, with VS2005 .net. I have used sub report in section and given can grow true in reports. When it displays in browser it shows text vertically grows in columns, where i wanted it to grow horizontally, even if there is so much space it does not grow horizontally.
Please help me how i can do formatting horizontally.Thanks in advance.
You have to extend the field's width to fit the page's max width, then set Text Wrap option for multilines.
Is there a way to get a band to resize based on the amount of data presented in a gantt chart? I can get the number of rows that are in the chart, if that helps. It seems like there should be a way around this.
In otherwords, how does one dynamically resize a chart in JasperReports?
The solution to this is to put a text band right beside the chart and estimate the appropriate height, use a scriptlet to generate enough text that would end up being close to the right height. On the text box, stretch on oversize, and the band will increase. Stretch the chart to the band height.
