unknown line and unknown space in PDF

Hi

I m using BIRT version 2.2.1. All the reports are required in the PDF.

I have a problem unknown line and unknown space in PDF

Problem 1 Statement:
unknown line

It is likely to go out after changing page.
This line is unnecessary.
Is the setting insufficient or is it a bug?

Problem 2 Statement:
unknown space

It is likely to go out after changing group.
i want to set same size of row.(what is this space?)
Is the setting insufficient or is it a bug?

Hi Take,

I'm guessing that these quirks are a product of using the drop functionality in this version. I don't see the same in BIRT 2.5.1 looking at the sample report you attached. One way around this may be to put all of the data elements in the detail row and use a variable to store the last value in a column and the visibility feature to determine when to show a column value. Let me know if you have questions.

thanks Michael,

The workaround is I think so display on many blank data and border.

I want to make it a look such as the cell merge of EXCEL on same data.

The workaround that you thought about seems not to match to the PDF display that I want to output.

do you have other workaround ?

cheer,

Take,

It looks like the visibility feature had a bug back in 2.2.1. The idea to use the visibility works in 2.5.1, but not in 2.2.1. So, I modified the idea slightly and used new data bindings in the table to decide whether to display the row info or not. I also used script to manually place the horizontal borders on the grouped columns. To get a border on the bottom of each page, I set the page break interval to 55 and counted rows with a variable and added a bottom border to the 55th row. Take a look at the report. Let me know if you have any questions.

Michael,

many thanks.

I will make a new report in your idea.

question.
Do you know bug ID of the same event at Bugzilla?
I am contributing to Bugzilla to make sure because I did not understand though I looked for with Bugzilla.

Take,

I don't know the bug report ID or if there even was one. I just assumed the drop issue was a bug because it didn't do the same thing in the latest release. If you resubmit the bug, it will most likely get paired with any bug report that it's similar to or dismissed because the latest version does not have this bug any longer.
