Static Content

kosta

Hello BIRT community,

there is a part of my report which uses static content (text and images). I put them into a grid and I have used text report items for the text and another row for the images(embedded image). The first page of this static part has a table of content which I made static too as HTML list (without page number).

So I have something like:
first page:
- table of content (grid, text report item with HTML in it)
second and third page
- (grid, row: text report item for the title, row: text over the image, the image, text under the image )

This is all static content.

I thought I can use parameter for the text fields and some solution (image from share folder) for the image but that noticed that the texts can have different length and the images different height.

Is there any way how I can produce this dynamically, where the image can be seen in the middle of the page and above and below it the text appears without white blocks between them?

I am trying to use the same rptdesign-file for many scenarios where the text can have different length and the image are different too.

For any suggestion thanks in advance.

Can you post an image example of the output requirement?

There is not a tool that can wrap text around an image (like in Word). You'll have to use two controls and script some logic to choose how many characters to display.

Does anyone have an example of dynamically setting the dimensions of an image control?
