No Layouts in jasper report

[yassine12you]

I needed to hide and show some of my columns, thing that i realize impossible using jasper report

because Element have a static X, so there will be always a empty box instead that adjacent element take the place of invisible element

it s a huge problem that layout are only used by the editor not at runtime to position elements in a flexible way.

 

Can jasper provide more flixible way to positioning elements? there is a way to do this way that i'm ignoring? 

 

Big thanks.

Hi,

Table element supports hiding columns and the rest of columns positions are  automatically adjusted.

Hope, it helps.

Best regards,

@Andrew... is the "Hiding Columns" Feature of the table component available in community edition? When I remember right, this was a ProFeature in former JR-Editions????

It's possible in the community edition.

Check the following thread. It's basically setting Print When Expression on a table column. Select the column and "Cell" in properties. Set the "Print When Expression"
