page numbers in grouping

2005-11-08 03:56

hi

we are developing reports with Jasper APIs.

and we are facing problem in numbering of page when it is matter of grouping .

i.e when we want each group should display on new page and correspondingly page number should be changed.

 

we are using JRDesignTextField do display it and

set its property as setEvaluationTime(JRVariable.RESET_TYPE_GROUP);

for total no of pages.

 

but now if group data is of 2 pages then page no is displayed as 1 of 1 , 2 of 2 etc

 

I don't know what is wrong , kindly help me

 

thanks

JAmol

Hi,

 

What you need is explained here:

http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/tips.tricks.html#pagenumber

 

Use evaluationTime="Group" for the text field displaying

the total number of pages for the current group.

 

I hope this helps.

Hi,

 

Actually, your code should look like this:

 

setEvaluationTime(JRExpression.EVALUATION_TIME_GROUP)

 

setEvaluationGroup(myGroup)

 

I hope this helps.
