Hi, is there any way to configure a report in a manner, that a group header and a correpsonding detail band are printed on the same page? I have always the behaviour, that the group header of a detail band are on different pages. My expectation is, that the for each group change the header is printed directly abouve its data. best regards jk Post Edited by jackkilian at 06/30/2011 13:49

I found the solution, the main problem of an Excel Report Export is when using several SubReports, to define the Main Page with a maximum Page Height! When setting the Page Height to e.g. 2 000 000 we have no problems, in fact all subreports has enough space to print. Othewhise Jasper generates internally many pages e.g. 20 - but only 6 sheets are defined, the behaviour is that the pages after 6 are printes with page 7,...8...9

Hi, I have the problem, that my Excel Export print always two empty sheets after the Title-Band. My reports contains Title(=StartOnNewPage), 4x DetailBand, 1xSummaryBand(=StartOnNewPage) To enforce a page break to be equivalent with the Sheet name Specification, I use the PageBreak Element in iReport. How do I enforce the PageBreak correct, that I get 6 PrintPages (internally) to be equivalent with the SheetName Specification. best regards

Hi, can you give me an example when it make sense to implement isPrintWhenDetailOverflows="true" for Frames or SubReport. I think it's risky when you can not ensure or when you implement dynamic reports. regards jk

Hi, I would like to implement a table that print the table header only on a page, when minimum one row is available. Currently I have the behaviour that a table header is printed at the bottom of the page above the footer, but without data. On the second page the table header is printed at the top again, with data lines. What can I do? Grouping? best regards - jk

Hi, can you give me some hints/code snippets how you change it. The page count of the JasperPrint is always equal to the amount of pages exported to pdf? best regards - jk Post Edited by jackkilian at 08/11/2009 10:57

Hi, I read some posts in the past that discuss the problem to show the total pages number / current page number of the master report in a sub-report. Within my project I would like to develop a common sub-report that shows the page number like 2 o 3 pages as described in a sub-report and not in the master! Is there a trick to show the total pages number / current page number of the master report in a sub-report? Scriptlet, I read something about the class JRExporterParameter that propvides some constants holding the page count? thanks - jk

Hi,I have an urgent problem.To influence the formatting behaviour in Jasper it's possible to extend from the DefaultFormatFactory and override the number or date format methods.This method is only called when a Date or a Long/Double appear in any field.But - my programm uses e.g. BigDecimal as class members! Is it possible to extend Jasper in a way to define a formatting class depending to any class type?I now that a way could be to override the toString()-Method or to write a field expression like (new BigDecimal("123.456")).doubleValue().But that's not my intention, it would be better to define formatters depending to the class type.regards- jk Post Edited by jackkilian at 05/29/2009 09:34

Hi, kann anybody explain me (maybe once again) where are the reasons for import directives in iReport? thx

The download do not work anymore: If you have problems use that thread: http://www.jasperforge.org/index.php?option=com_joomlaboard&Itemid=215&func=view&id=31223&catid=9 Post edited by: jackkilian, at: 2007/09/26 09:20

I put a new Thread to the forum with another subject: Read this to solve the issues: http://www.jasperforge.org/index.php?option=com_joomlaboard&Itemid=215&func=view&id=31223&catid=9 good luck

Hi iReport "Definitive guide" Users, I'm lucky to be familiar with Java and Reporting, so I could solve the problems of that Guide! My comment is based on the "Definitive guide to iReport" from August 2007 and iReport 2.0. My steps: ========= A) First I downloaded the samples from the Apress homepage as documented within the tutorial. Works fine! B.) Then I downloaded the HSQLDB from sourceforge (version 1.7). Works fine! C) Then I wondered that the praised Northwind database is not part of the download from Apress. My opinion is, that Apress should put the Northwind scripts to the download, what else make sense?? :-( D) Then I browse the iReport directories regarding that Northwind, NOTHING! E) Then I browse as recommended in an other thread my jasperreports-1.3.4 download folders and found a DB script in the directory demo/hsql folder. Nice, but that database has no CUSTOMER table as used in many examples! My conclusion: that database has nothing to do with the well known Northwind DB. F) Then I searched the Internet regarding suitable scripts. I found two projects hosted on sourcforge. One has the name Butler http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=94553&package_id=100556 Instruction: Download that project, go to the directory /demo/northwind/sql and take that scripts compatible with HSQLDB 1.7., it works fine! G) The first example in chapter 1 uses a SQL command "Select * from CUSTOMERS". DON'T use that, the wizard will always popup an error message: Code:SQL problems: Table not found: CUSTOMER in statement [select * from CUSTOMER] {2} Instaed use: Code:[code]SELECT DISTINCT * FROM "Customers" Customers Works fine in my iReport 2.0 HSQLDB 1.7 environment. I solve that problems when I used the SQL wizard in the screen I write the SQL command. The SQL wizard always generated a command that works, so if you have any problems use that! Good Luck!

Hi all, I have a small problem with previewing an report including subreports using an empty datasource. When I click the preview button with the hint text "Execute (empty data source)" I could see always the master report with null values but never the subreports. Is that possible, otherwhise we could not see the look and feel of the whole report using that feature. best regards

I hope I understand the question, try this...: Code: try { // Execute a command String[] commands = new String[]{"<your path>/iReport.exe"}; Process child = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(commands); } catch (IOException e) { } Post edited by: jackkilian, at: 2007/08/31 11:59 Post edited by: jackkilian, at: 2007/08/31 12:00

Hi, I have the same problem. I searched the iReport forum and find many questions regarding this! Is that an open bug, or what's the problem. To copy always the recent jar's into the ireport/lib directory is tedious. best regards jk
