How to make that subreport shows only once?

[daseparo]

Hy, I'm beginner in JasperReports, maybe this problem is trivial. I don't know.

I have master reposrt and subreport. Datasource is XML. In master report in Detail1 band i have 3 fields that represent one parent node from XML. That fields repeats many times. But in Detail2 band i have subreport that takes some other data from other node in that XML file.

Problem is that if i have 4-5 nodes in master report that subreport is also printed 4-5 times. I want that first all data from Masterreport is printed, and after that i want  subreport only once.

(I can put subreport to page footer but it is also dynamic and i don't know how height will be.)

 

sorry for bad english

Put subreport in summary band (or any other, that suits your needs, but not details band). Everything, which is in detail band, will be printed as many times as number of records fetched from datasource

thanks,

that works very well. I used to put subreport in footer bands but that didn't work.
