How to get a report secion at the bottom of page

[hvm]

 In our report we want to print a section at het bottom of the last page of the report. In that section we want to include a sub-report. The height of that sub-report is not known at design time.

We tried a "summary-band". But it seems that a summary band has a fixed height.

Is there solution for this issue?

Hi,

 

The summary band is not a fixed size band. What made you think it is?

Maybe you refer to the lastPageFooter band, which is indeed a fixed size band.

 

I suggest you get the latest JR and use the group footer section of a dummy group that has no group expressions and thus breaks only once per report. You use footerPosition="StackAtBottom" for that group.

Of course, if your group footer is bigger than one page, the fact that you configured it to stay at the bottom of the page is completely irrelevant.

 

I hope this helps.

Thanx,

The summary band is indeed nog fixed, I did not look good.

 

We will try the footerPosition attribute.

 

At this moment we use jasperassistant as designer tool. The current version of jasperassistent does not support JR 3.6.2 or 3.7.0. We will look for a solution for this issue.
