Full page subreport possible?

2004-12-15 05:53

I have a subreport that begins at the end of a page, then continues to the next. However, when it overflows to the next page, only 12 lines are printed, which is about 1/3 of the page, then 12 lines are printed on the next page and so on. Does anyone know how to allow the subpreort to stretch onto the entire new page?

Hm... maybe groups will help - see them in jasperreports tips&tricks.

I had the same problem... the solution is for each subreport create a group and only use the groupheader to place the report.

The subreport will contain the group?

Not quite sure i know what you mean, but is it something like this?

 

<group>

<groupheader>

<band>

<textField>

<textFieldExpression>$F{field1}</textFieldExpression>

</textField>

<textField>

<textFieldExpression>$F{field2}</textFieldExpression>

</textField>

</band>

</groupHeader>

</group>

 

and end up without a detail section?

Did it work ?

I continue to get the error

SEVERE: Element "jasperReport" does not allow "group" here.

Does the group have to be defined within a certain place in the XML file?

Not getting an error anymore, can print more on a page maybe 14 lines or so vs 12, but still has a page break after about 14.
