weird subreport layout

[dirko]

Hello,

 

I am observing some weird behaviour with the layout in my subreport. To investigate the problem I stripped down my master report (only including a subreport) and subreport (only containing columHeader with backcolor). When creating a pdf of the subreport itself it looks ok (a header with a grey background), but when creating a pdf from the master report, the first column in the subreport has a white background and the height of the grey area has increased (see attached image). Any clue what is going on here?

 

masterReport

Code:

<!DOCTYPE jasperReport

If you are using JasperReports 2.0.3, then this might happen because of the bug discussed here.

I switched back to 2.0.2 and now it works. Thanks for your quick response!
