How to stretch correctly with overflow for non-standard range

Question

I have page header and page header fields that have multiple lines. I want them to stretch vertically, but there is no problem in the box below the stretched box. I also grouped them using a frame.

Properties that I set:

Position Type : Float
Stretch Type : Relative to Tallest Object
Stretch With Overflow : True

Please see screenshot.

Answer 1

You can try these text properties: -

For the first field (checkout name) of the header group, use the following properties: -

Position Type-         Fix Relative to Top

Stretch Type-          Relative to Band Height

Stretch With Overflow -    true

For the second field (Date), set these properties

Position Type-         Fix Relative to Bottom

Stretch Type-          No stretch

Stretch With Overflow-     false

In this report, you can see the properties if you run the report using the Sample HSQL database in ireport: -

Answer 3

Stretch Type: Tallest Object . () .

It is not necessary. Set stretch type = "No stretch". "Stretch with overflow = true" is enough to display elements correctly. (IMHO)

Decision. Place each pair label: field in a separate frame. In this case, the field labels will be displayed in the corresponding lines.
