Exclude groupHeader and GroupFooter from Table

Hi All!

I have a report where I'm already excluding some bands when I export to different formats. See code below: 

    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.csv.exclude.origin.band.1" value="title"/>
    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.csv.exclude.origin.band.2" value="pageFooter"/>
    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.csv.exclude.origin.band.3" value="summary"/>
    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.html.exclude.origin.band.1" value="pageFooter"/>
    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.exclude.origin.band.1" value="pageFooter"/>
    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.xlsx.exclude.origin.band.1" value="pageFooter"/>
    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.exclude.origin.band.2" value="summary"/>
    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.xlsx.exclude.origin.band.2" value="summary"/>

Things is, I have a table on this report which contains two groups. Then I need to exclude the groupHeader and groupFooter of this table when I export the report to CSV.
I have tried different ways. Added the code below at the top of the report along with the other exclude properties. I have also moved these properties to the top of the table. The properties I'm using are the ones added below. Not sure if these are wrong or if I need to do anything else to be able to exclude this group H and F from CSV export.

            <componentElement>
                <reportElement key="" x="0" y="0" width="1090" height="119" uuid="02dc3f91-f82a-40d6-9fe2-5796a6efc2af">
                    <property name="com.jaspersoft.studio.layout" value="com.jaspersoft.studio.editor.layout.VerticalRowLayout"/>
                    <property name="com.jaspersoft.studio.table.style.table_header" value="Table_TH"/>
                    <property name="com.jaspersoft.studio.table.style.column_header" value="Table_CH"/>
                    <property name="com.jaspersoft.studio.table.style.detail" value="Table_TD"/>
                    <property name="com.jaspersoft.studio.unit.x" value="px"/>
                    <property name="com.jaspersoft.studio.unit.y" value="px"/>
                    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.csv.exclude.origin.band.property_address_header" value="groupHeader"/>
                    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.csv.exclude.origin.band.property_address_footer" value="groupFooter"/>
                    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.csv.exclude.origin.group.property_address_header" value="property_address"/>
                    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.csv.exclude.origin.group.property_address_footer" value="property_address"/>
....

I'll much appreciate any help here.

cheers!

Hello Anibal,

You will need to add a wild card property setting to reference the original header suppression into your report sub-element (table group headers).

net.sf.jasperreports.export.{format}.exclude.origin.report.{arbitrary_name}=*

For example, you will need to set the below properties in the report for the property_address_header - 

<property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.csv.exclude.origin.band.property_address_header" value="groupHeader"/>
<property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.csv.exclude.origin.group.property_address_header" value="property_address"/>
<property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.csv.exclude.origin.report.property_address_header" value="*"/>
