Wrapping/line break

2003-11-03 00:02

Hi there. How can I make my JasperReport wrap text or force a line break? I have a quite regular textfield like

 

<textField isBlankWhenNull="true">

<reportElement x="0" y="40" width="600" height="12" >

</reportElement>

<textElement textAlignment="Left" >

<font fontName="Sans-serif" size="8" isBold="false"/>

</textElement>

<textFieldExpression class="java.lang.String">$F{Comment}</textFieldExpression>

</textField>

 

The page width is 595, so I've tried setting the field width to 600.

The field is populated using a JRBeanCollectionDataSource, and it's collected from a database table, data type String, size 1000.

 

Thank you for your answer!

Have you tried the

isStretchWithOverflow="true"

in you textField tag?

eg. <textField isBlankWhenNull="true" isStretchWithOverflow="true">
