Page Break by Parameter

akakuris

Greetings,

I'm developing reports that would be accessed by users that have no access to the report set up, they are provided options only for printing reports. For instance they can choose a report to print by office within a location.

I have set parameters to print a report by an office within a location. I would like to set a parameter giving them the option to print with pagebreak or not by that parameter. I haven't found a solution. I see where you can set the pagebreak, but that would not give the user the option. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Andy

Meaning you have a page break set after each group, or something like that, in a table, and you want them to be able to remove that, if they want? Let me know. Also, let me know your BIRT version.

Thats exactly it! The thought is the manager printing the report may want it for their own review and not want to spend the paper so print it without page breaks, or they would want to print it by group for distribution. We want the user to have the option.

I'm on BIRT v 3.7.1 and I'm using the SpringSource plugin.

Thanks,

Andy,

Take a look at this report. The script to add the page break to the group is done in the onCreate for the group. To get to this script section, in your report, go to the outline, find your table in the body section of the report, and go to the group in the groups section of the table. After selecting the group, click on the script tab under the design window. Since there is already script in this report, you can find the script area by going to the scripts section of the outline.

Hope this helps.
