Wrapping text in textfield

[broschb]

I have a textfield that i would like to wrap text in, i have stretch with overflow set to true. The text will continually get truncated. The textfield height is 15, and the band height for that textfield is 17. If is set the band height to double or more the height of the textfield then the text wraps fine, but rows with no wrap don't look as nice. For example if i have the following rows.

 

 

 

1.this is some really

long text that is

wrapping

2.This is some text

 

 

3.more text

 

 

I get white space equal to the height of the num of rows the longest text wraps to. I would like it displayed like this:

 

1.this is some really

long text that is

wrapping

2.This is some text

3.more text

 

Below is the xml:

<detail>

<band height="17" isSplitAllowed="true">

<textField isStretchWithOverflow="true" isBlankWhenNull="false" evaluationTime="Now" hyperlinkType="None" hyperlinkTarget="Self">

<reportElement

x="0"

y="0"

width="226"

height="15"

key="textField"

stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject"

positionType="Float"

isPrintRepeatedValues="false"

isRemoveLineWhenBlank="true"

isPrintWhenDetailOverflows="true"/>

<box topBorder="None" topBorderColor="#000000" leftBorder="None" leftBorderColor="#000000" rightBorder="None" rightBorderColor="#000000" bottomBorder="None" bottomBorderColor="#000000"/>

<textElement textAlignment="Justified" verticalAlignment="Middle">

<font/>

</textElement>

<textFieldExpression class="java.lang.String"><![CDATA[$F{comment}]]></textFieldExpression>

</textField></band>

</detail>

Bands cannot be resized dynamically - Stretch with overflow will not allow something to cross into another band.

Thanks,

 

is there any way to eliminate the white space between rows if I increase the band height?

If you want export in Excel format, sure you can eliminate white space between rows.

 

Just change in export option.
