this is my situation:
I have a report with 10 (or more) items in detail area
I have a large text field that I would like to span across multiple pages (this text has nothing to do with items)
I am not able to create another page because all of my items fit nicely on the first page
How can I create (force) a new page to contain only some variable (static) text, on the page footer? In other words, how can I create a new page with no items?
In iReport Designer 4.1.1
The Break element is inside the Palette window.
You can select if you want to break the page or column
Palette > Report Elements > Break -> Page break.
Everything what is after this Break is printed on next Page.
Can you be specific about iReport version.
In 2.0.5, from the Edit menu choose "Insert page/column break"
Put it in the band where you want to break. In the Properties dialog, make sure the Break Type is set to "Page"
I usually prefer to use it with "Print with expression" so it does not make an empty page when i dont have an empty report already.
In 5.5.0
You can add large text field to the Summary band.
Then,click report name in Report Inspector find "Summary on new page" in Properties then check.
So you have new page after detail.
You can increase the page size of detail band in Ireport, To increase size go to xml tab
and search for
<detail>
<band height="482"/>
and add
<detail>
<band height="600" splitType="Immediate">
After that i think you may able to see another page.I have tested this method with only Summary band, if it does not work copy all the item in summary band.
You can use Break that you will get from Palette.
And if you want to add some text in the footer of second page only then you can't do it with the Brak only.
In that situation you need to use PrintWhen expression suits for your requirement.

this case is a little more difficult I think.
In my main report I have material numbers displayed in a cross table.
From time to time I need to show more details for one of the material numbers. Therefore I want to double click this field and then copy the corresponding material number to the sub report (directly in the parameter field). Another fixed parameter field is the date, which has the max date "today" and the min date "today-365d".
Moreover I don´t want to make the sub-report visible in the normal report the whole time. It should just be visible if I double click a material number.
Is there any possible way to that?
Thanks in advance!
You can do this in 2 ways, with either an on-demand sub report or by utilising the drill down
Using sub reports
In your main report go to insert>Subreport. Create your sub report with the detail you wish to see, then click the tick box for "On-demand subreport". Place the sub report in the details section along with your material numbers. You'll see it appear like a hyperlink. Right click then Format Subreport>Subreport tab. You can change the Subreport caption to the material number from your data by clicking the formula button for "On-demand Subreport Caption" and entering your material number field name as the result of the formula.
Whjen you ruin the report you can click the link to see the etail in the subreport
Drill down method
Create a report with all the detail you need in the details section. Group by material number then in section expert (Report menu) use the tick box to "Hide (Drill-Down OK)" the details section. Now when you preview the report the group header will show with the material number, clicking this group header will open the details section.
I would desperately need some help to achieve the following:
Create a master-report.jrxml, which includes a table of content and the corresponding sub-reports
These sub-reports all contain a different chart with different data query, which can be bigger than one page
Every page which includes a sub-report must show some static frame with dynamic content like the current sub-report's name and page X of Y
My approach so far was, to create a sub-report.jrxml for each of my required charts (I put chart in the sub-report's summary band). Then I created a MasterReport.jrxml with my static frame which included the sub-reports in the summary band. I expected/hoped that JasperReport would render a the according sub-report after each other, but it just overdraws on the same page.
How can I configure my report, to display the sub-reports after each other on new pages?
Any help with this, would be highly appreciated.
Try with subReports in a detail band and subRepport element has "Run to bottom" property which, if set to true, will make subReport take the whole page and push next item on a new page. There is also a page break element in JasperReports if "Run to bottom" doesn't work for you . For static content on each page use page header/footer bands.
I have a jasper report that consists of 6 subreports. Each of these subreports has its own title section. Now I need each report to start on the new page. I tried adding page breaks but it did not work for me.
While researching the problem I cam across a trick to set isTitleNewPage to true at
http://www.dzone.com/snippets/jasperreports-subreport-new. So I added the attribute isTitleNewPage="true" to all the subreports, but now the subreport's Title remains on the previous page and Details and Summary of that subreport are being displayed on a new page.
How can i solve this problem??
Simplest solution is to set runToBottom flag to true in subreport tags.
<subreport runToBottom="true">
This forces the subreport to fill the whole page, so the next subreport will start on a new page.
Flag isTitleNewPage won't do the trick because like you noticed, it will split the subreport's title band with the rest of the subreport content (unless you're using a blank title band).
In the initial tag:
<jasperReport
put:
isTitleNewPage="true"
I had the same problem that the title remains on the previous page.
But I have a solution:
put the stuff from the title in the "page header" band
set isTitleNewPage="true"
add a Integer variable to the subreport with the initial value 0
inkrement type "page"
expression $V{vari} + 1
print when expression of the page header is $V{vari} == 0
Now u have your title stuff on a new page, but only one time.
My solution to this problem is to add every Subreport in a separate "Detail band" and then set the Band height to the biggest possible value (right click on the "Detail X Band" => "Maximize Band Height"). Between bands could be printed some blank pages, but that is not a big problem in my case.
I solved it by add page break at the start of the sub report in the top side, no use "Print when expression" or anything else
Report formation:
Master Report -> 1st page -> 2nd page -> Sub report -> (add page break on top) title+ 2 sub report -> master report end page
Add a detail band for each sub report and go to the sub report properties and put a tick on Title on a new page.
I solved it by putting a page break at the beggining of each subreport, just before the title label and set 'new Boolean (true)' on the 'Print When Expression' property for each page break.
Background
A subreport with a column title and a detail section both set to 20px high.
When the subreport record displays on the main report, the subreport prints as expected until when it reaches at the bottom of the page.
Then the subreport prints just the column header and left blank space, then again starts on new page with column header and its detail.
Question
So, would you make it either print the whole subreport on same page, or start whole report from new page?

Another way to delete the last blank page that appears in the report, is eliminating the pagination of the report
Try set the Split Type of related band to Prevent. (Might be detail band)
I have a report in SSRS that contains 12 subreports. After each subreport, I need to insert a page break so that each subreport starts on a new page and doesn't share pages with the other subreports. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks
I found an answer. Use a Rectangle at the bottom of each SubReport after all Tablixes and other rendering Objects. Then set its "PageBreak" property to "End". When the SubReport is finished with the Tablix and/or other data objects, the Rectangle forces a page break. Also, a cool feature, if the SubReport returns no rows of data, the page break is not rendered. Therefore, no extra page breaks
Another solution would be to have the subreports placed inside the rectangles. I would imagine this would help you to better control and organize the layout of the report.
I tried the other answer here but my master report is driven by a dataset so didn't quite work out. This is how I got it to work for me:
1) I put the subreports into different rows on top of same size rectangles inside a Tablix with all the rows belonging to the same row group.
2) I then selected properties of the group, then pagebreak and checked the property pagebreak on between each instance of group.
Just use the "Add page break after" on the General tab of Tablix Properties.
I came across the same kind of issue but I was able to overcome by below mentioned way.
I created a sub report and placed rectangle inside the sub report (page break option checked before) and placed all my sub report content inside the rectangle. This page break works only if the sub report renders any data if not they will be no page break.
I have made Many reports with a front Page Summary and Page 2 with the Detail.
Use the Tablix for the Page Break
Tablix > Properties > PageBreak > BreakLocation > Start / End / ......
Like other answers mention, I used the "Page break before" option on rectangles/tables, but for some reason it would only break the page if it wasn't at the very top of the (sub)report
