Shape size

[geannib]

Hi

I want to have a shape inside the detail section. The height of the shape I want to be the same height as the detail.

The details section is dynamak and I don't know from the beginning which size to set. I want to anchor somehow the top and bottom of the shape(rectangle for example) on the top and bottom of the detail.

Is it possible?

Rectangle -> Appearance -> Size -> Stretch Type -> Relative To Band Height

This is a sample. I tried both ContainerHeight and RelativeToBandHeight. I'm using jasper studio 6.6.0. In the preview I see the rectacle with its original size.

" I want to be the same height as the detail. "

So first you have to set your shape height the same as the detail height.

Yes that was the problem with the height.

Another thing: in case the detail is spred over multiple pages, the shape is limited only to the first page. Setting "detail overflow" does not solve the problem.

How can I make it taking the size of the detail on many pages?

Thanks
