how to keep the static field and text field together

patchy_9 · December 27, 2016

I tried to create a simple report that has a detail band split type: immediate but I would like to keep the static field and text field to stay together, not split up in different pages.

Please give me any advice.

you can achieve this in multiple ways

try using a frame
try using html markup textfields and <br> tag to space it properly

Did you just try increasing the height of the static text so it'll include the fields and ordering the fields to be over the static text.

Thank you so much for your response.

I tried all the solutions that you gave me but I still have some issues as details below.

1. using html markup text fields, the issue still exists.

             <textField isStretchWithOverflow="true" isBlankWhenNull="true">
               <reportElement style="Detail" positionType="Float" x="0" y="99" width="132" height="18" uuid="03227eb0-268e-4f89-8cec-d3a5ec34387f"/>
               <textElement markup="html">
                   <font size="14" isBold="true"/>
               </textElement>
               <textFieldExpression><![CDATA["home phone<br>"+$F{phone1}]]></textFieldExpression>
           </textField>

2. using a frame, it fixed the issue but when text field is overflow the text field itselt is split up.

3. increasing the height of the static text to include the fields - it is an easy fix solution and it works but when text field is overflow the text field itselt is split up (the same issue as adding a frame). Any suggestions to fix this issue.
