styled text

[hangman01]

I am using IReport 3.1.0-nb and I want to have a text field with normal text, bold text, italic text, and a variable field all in the same text field element. I can do this using version 3.0.0 but when I try to do the same things in the netbeans version the text is not changed. The <style......></style> tags are not printed but they are not being performed either.

I like the look of the netbeans based standalone that I am trying out but I do this sort of thing a lot in the reports I build and it is much easier to be able to handle the different text styles in one field.

I finally found my error. I needed to used "styled" in the markup properties. Once I did that I could use change the style of the text in both the static text and the text field elements.
