How to display a single variable reset at group in the details band

[jbmorla]

Hi,

I have a group called "Customer" and I would like to display a dummy value to the top left of the group, aligned horizontally with the first line of the group.

At the moment I have this setup:

         <variable name="vargroup" class="java.lang.Integer" resetType="Group"
         resetGroup="Customer">
      <variableExpression><![CDATA[1]]></variableExpression>
      <initialValueExpression><![CDATA[1]]></initialValueExpression>
    </variable>

But as the variable belongs to the "Details", it prints on every line.
I'd like to have a group zone to the left of the details.
That's easy to do with Oracle Reports.
