New page in iReport

this is my situation:

  • I have a report with 10 (or more) items in the detail area

  • I have a large text box that I would like to spread across multiple pages (this text has nothing to do with the elements)

  • I cannot create another page because all my elements fit perfectly on the first page

How can I create (force) a new page to only contain some text (static) in the page footer? In other words, how do I create a new page with no elements?

In iReport Designer 4.1.1

The Break element is inside the palette window.



You can choose if you want to split a page or a column

Palette> Report Elements> Break → Page Break . Anything after this break is printed on the next page.

In 5.5.0, you can add a large text box to the Summary range. Then click the name of the report in the Report Inspector to find "Summary on new page" in Properties, then check. So you have a new page after the details.

Can you please specify the version of iReport.

In 2.0.5 from the Edit menu, select Insert Page / Column Spread, Place it in the group where you want to break. In the Properties dialog box, make sure Break Type is set to Page

I usually prefer to use it with Print With Expression, so it doesn't generate a blank page unless I already have a blank report.

You can increase the page size of the detail range in Ireport, to increase the size go to the xml tab

and find

 <detail>
    <band height="482"/>

and add

  <detail>
  <band height="600" splitType="Immediate">

After that, I think you can see another page. I only tested this method with Pivot Group group, if it doesn't work, copies the whole item in the pivot.

You can use Break which you get from Palette.

And if you want to add text to the footer of the second page, then you can't do it with Brak alone.

In this situation, you need to use PrintWhen expressions for your requirement.
