[subreport with different data source from main]

Yes you should be able to use a different data source for your subreport.  At least according to this post:

[Is it possible for muliple Query in jasper Report]

I don't think it is. If you need to query from multiple tables, is there no common field you can use so that you can do a join?

[Subreports - oy vey!]

I have a jaspter report that was created with Java.  Now I want to add a subreport to it. 

1) can I add a .jrxml subreport to the old report that was created with Java?

2) I have the .jrxml file and I added this line of code to the old java report code:

String subReportFile = JasperCompileManager.compileReportToFile("report1.jrxml");

So now what?

3) I know I have to add a parameter to the main report but after browsing the forum for help I'm more confused as to what and how to add the parameter.

Any insight to my problem would be greatly appreciated!

TIA,

[change label placement in pie chart]

Is there a way to change label placements for a pie chart?  Right now the labels are lined up on either the left or right side of the chart.  I want the labels to be next to the section the label is associated with but not on top. 

 

Any help would be appreciated!

 

TIA,

[Pie chart only displaying distinct values]

I don't want to add up anything actually.  I just want to show all values in a column.  Somtimes the values are the same. 

[report layout question]

Thanks, i'll give this a try.

[Resizing Fields]

I don't think you can do any sizing to fields during preview mode. But you can have the field wrap by selecting "Stretch With Overflow".

[Pie chart only displaying distinct values]

Are pie charts only supposed to show distinct values from a table?  Is there any way to get around this?

[report layout question]

Woops, spoke too soon. This isn't actually filling values across. I suspect this property is for a printer rather than data population. Any other ideas anyone??

[report layout question]

Thanks! I didn't see that property before!

[look and feel for bar chart]

You can customize the look and feel of your charts by using a customizer class. Here is a link that I found helpful:

[Pie chart with float percentage]

I have the same issue. I opted not to use the label format property. Instead, I used the following label expression in the chart data: $F{percent_value}+"%"

This way I get the decimal values I need to display.

[report layout question]

Is there a way to layout data so that it is populated across the page rather than down the page?  If I put a field in the detail tab it always prints down but I want it to print across.  Any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

[Ireport 3.1.4 report wizard]

I've encountered this too. I also keep getting a "no active jdbc connection" error whenever I create an empty report and even after i've specified my select query.

[Pie chart label size]

No, that didn't help at all, the labelFormat just shows values with the section labels but didn't solve the overlapping problem. 

I have a customizer class and I thought using the setLabelPadding method would do the trick but it doesn't help either.

Any other ideas would be appreciated.

[Pie chart label size]

Is there a way to increase the width of labels in a pie chart?  My pie chart has a lot of sections but the labels 1) overlap and 2)they aren't wide enough.  I've attached a snapshot to illustrate my point.

 

TIA,

Jenn
