I'm using Jaspersoft and I have used the list component in my report. I have a problem when I try to fill it. I would like to choose the option to print horizontally, but when I print the list, the items are still printed vertically.
How it works:

I would like it : analyse1 analyse2 analyse7
Go to report properties.
Change print order vertical to horizontal.
Set columns to 15 or whatever you want.

Im making a report with Stimulsoft Designer, and I place a lot of information. Now I need to place a data band for showing a list of phones in a certain space, but the only position on which the data band appears is on top (after header) and full width. That's not what I need, I need something like this:
I tried to create a "Data" square, and other options shown there, but it doesn't work. What I'am missing?
The solution is to add a panel with that shape, and insert the databand inside the panel
I'm trying to create a BIRT report. The code and query side of it works just fine, but the display is rather wonky.
There's one column whose text contents are rather long, and instead of showing some text and allowing scrolling of the text (which is the behavior I'd like there), it simply shows up as a very vertically long text block; kinda ruins the report a bit. I've also tried setting the width on the column, but no dice there either. Any ideas?
Also, as an aside, how do I get the table's columns to have grid lines? I can do that on the rows, but I can't seem to figure out how to do that for the columns. If anyone has insight into that issue, it'd be appreciated.
Here's a screenshot of the issue

I think there is no way to use a scrollable view element inside your report, because the output by the default html-emitter is completely static (I would like to see a different answer if this should be wrong).
To your second Question about how to add a border to a column. Click into the cell of your table, click on "Border" inside the "Properties Editor" and select the borders you like to use. This should be repreated for all cells where you want to use the borders, because this configuration is not applied for a whole column but just for one cell. If you want a border for the whole column you need to setup the border for every cell in the column.
If you have already a data cell inside your table cell, you can use the outline view to select the table cell instead of the data cell:

As you can see from the screenshot, my table is totally centered.
This is the screenshot of my report in running mode.
You can see that the table has moved to the right a bit.
I do not know why this is happening. I have set the CanGrow and CanShrink attribute of my individual columns to false, but I think my table body is growing.
It looks like email address length is the reason - it causes this column to expand. You can test this theory by removing record #4 from you report's data source.
Check that two things are set in properties:
click on containing Text Box and click F4. Make sure that "Can Grow" property is set to true (which most likely already is)
right click on containing Text Box and go to TextBox property window. Make sure that sizing option "Allow Height to increase" is checked ON (in General tab). This should push text in the column to wrap instead.
Do the same thing for all the columns that you anticipate longer text (like applicant name). Also, consider increasing initial width of this kind of columns to get more predictable formatting results.
Another thing to do is to remove all white space on the right and left of the table and setting all the margins to make page to be exactly 8.5 x 11 in total (if, for example, you are aiming to use letter page size). This would remove any "space to grow" for the table.
As soon as I display my search bar in the navigation controller, the behavior of the search results table changes - the table content is offset vertically by about 60px.
Changing the table's contentOffset on the delegate ResultsWill/Did Appear makes no difference.
Setting displayInNavigationController = false restores expected alignment of results (directly below search bar with no gap).
The blank area appears to be part of the table/scrollview, as I can force the results cells to temporarily display in the blank section by scrolling down.
Any idea how to get those first result cells to display at the top of the results window?
It looks like you have viewController.automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets set, but you don't actually want this adjustment. You can turn this option off via either Interface Builder (find "Adjust scroll view insets" checkbox) or programmatically.
For some reason I need to overlap 2 report elements in BIRT. For example I need to put 2 labels one on top of another. Is this possible in BIRT? I am using BIRT 4.3. Normally when we place elements in report designer each item is occupying one full row. Some times i need to overlap elements and sometimes i need to place elements side by side. side by side can be achieved with Grid but I am not sure how to overlap report items? Please help and thanks in advance.
You can put two labels in the same cell of a graph or table, then define when to "hide element" with the "Visibility" property.
OR
In order to have both display at the same time, you can use a grid to define where the top label will go, then add the back label as an image using the background (advanced property)
