Pagebreak Problem

[PixM]

Hi There,

 

I'm new to the board and i have a question. It's about pagebreaks in iReport. I have a report that has 3 pages and i want 2 subreports on each page so 6 subreports total. First page is ok but the subreports that have to be on page 3 are starting on page 2 because the second page is only filled for about half of the A4. The subreports are placed in groups. Can anybody please help me out because i cant seem to find a solution for it.

 

Thanx Alot!

Hi,

 

Today, we have added support for a new type of element called <break> in JasperReports.

It will be used to introduce both column and page breaks. This new feature will probably be supported by the next iReport release, but until then we are happy to receive any feedback from users testing it from the SVN head version of JasperReports.

 

Thank you,

Teodor

The SVN URL is https://scm.jasperforge.org/svn/repos/jasperreports/. You will need to create an account for the Developer area of JasperForge, use this account to connect to the SVN repository, check out trunk/jasperreports from the repository, build it and use it in your application.

 

Regards,

I compiled the source and gave it a try. Didn't seem to be working yet. So I edited two files in net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill: JRHorizontalFiller and JRVerticalFiller.

 

In the method fillGroupHeader(JRGroup) I removed the check for !isNewPage and compiled again.

 

Now, the pagebreak function in the groups worked properly.

 

It doesn't seem very logical to remove this check, but somehow I think it isn't working properly..

 

 

And is it normal that the SVN version of jasper is a bit slow in the JRviewer (related to development or so)?

 

Thanx
