Page break annoyances
Rob77
Hello,
I'm not sure if I understand it correctly, but ... I wanted to display only 10 results on page (10 columns of crosstab). When I enable page break, it breaks page (HTML) on every column, not matter what page break interval (crosstab->properties->columns area->page break) is.
Is it known issue for BIRT 2.3? I have tried various combinations of interval, before, after and nothing helped.
I have also searched the web, with no obvious solution/workaround.
Have you got any suggestions?
Moreover,
I have page structured like that:
1. crosstab
2. grid with two charts
The charts are only displayed when I display last page of the crosstab. Is it possible to display it always?
Regards,
Robert

Workaround found ...<br />
Column area, onCreateScript:<br />
this.getStyle().pageBreakInside = "Auto";<br />
this.getStyle().pageBreakBefore = "Avoid";<br />
this.getStyle().pageBreakAfter = "Avoid";<br />
<br />
Cross tab properties, column area, page break:<br />
before: auto, after: auto, interval: 12<br />
<br />
I don't know why it works, but now I get expected result - given number of columns on single page.<br />
<br />
Now I am going to search the net in order to figure out how to display chart on every page for that page values. Currently chart is displayed only on last page and for all pages data.<br />
<br />
Update:<br />
Well, I've found something on the forum: <a class='bbc_url' href='

According to mwilliams "With a crosstab, I don't know if it'll be very easy to get the chart on every page. Not even sure it'll be possible.". I think for now I have to live with that.<br />

Robert,
Are you using 2.3.0 or 2.3.something else? I believe the crosstab pagebreak interval functionality improved after it was first introduced.

Within Eclipse it is 2.3.2_r232_20081010 to 20081204.
On server side I can see 2.3.2_r232_20090122 to 20090217.
(Version is based on jar names, in Web interface it is plain 2.3.2)
Regards,
Robert
