Changed Resolution from Open to Fixed Changed Status from Acknowledged to Resolved Changed Assigned User from @lucianc to @teodord Hi,I have added a configuration property to allow controlling the validation of negative X coordinate for elements, similar to one which already existed for Y coordinate:http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/config.reference.html#net.sf.jasperreports.allow.element.negative.yNote that starting with upcoming JR 6.1.1 release, it will be possible to place elements beyond the bottom edge of frames. This is because frames will be able to grow and accommodate all their declared content, similar to how subreports grow.This is an enhancement that would lower the need for using subreports in complex report layouts where content is subject to conditional display.For backward compatibility reasons, these config props that control validation are turned off by default, but you can set them to reinforce coordinate validation in your environment.Thank you,Teodor
