Hello, I´have the following question : I want to set the background of a textfield whith the color gray when column count is odd. i use the instruction " new Boolean(($V{COLUMN_COUNT}.intValue() % 2) == 0)" in the print when expression, to make a field invisible when the Column count is odd. But for now i want to put the background of a TextField in different color when the Column Count is odd. P.S : sometimes the field make strecht with overflow and jump the information to the next line, and i want that in this case this lines have the same background color that the previous column. The version of ireport that i use is : 1.2.4 Best regards Post edited by: agentelu, at: 2007/03/30 11:11 Post edited by: agentelu, at: 2007/03/30 11:22
