wiphillyFan, I am currently doing the same thing with crosstabs. I add a style and assign this style to the crosstab “Detail/Detail” cell. I also change this cell to opaque. (You can link the style to any iReport element. I am just using the Detail/Detail cell as an example.) The style has a conditional expression so that it displays a particular background colour only when the condition is true. The conditional style is based on $V{valueMeasure}, which is the variable representing the value of each table cell in the “Detail/Detail” cell of crosstabs. See the example below for the jrxml code for the style.

Hi All,

am using jasper report to display Salary Sheet . where i want to highlight particular row if am getting any negative value.
Eg: – Employee ‘A’ Salary is 5000, He has taken Advance of 4000 and his loan is 1500, his Net pay will became (-500.)

When salary is processed in bluck . It I’ll be difficult to identify unless if am highlighting the negative value.

Please tell me if there any way i can do this in jasper report.

I’m using iReport and I need to have the background of a table cell change dynamically based on a field color – how can I do that? I don’t see the ability to enter an expression for the background property. If not possible via the editor, can I edit the xml manually to do it? – I’m not sure if the background color is configurable with expression. Thanks in advance for your help.

You have any idea how to highlight duplicate fields in a jasper report? That would be awesome. The scripting seems very limited compared to Crystal

Hi Brian,

firstly, let me thank you for the hint on how to use a different color on odd and even rows! I tried your solution and it immediatly worked for me with exporting to PDF. I wanted to use the same thing in XLS but my rows did not get colored, so I was wondering if I might do something wrong like PROPERTY_WHITE_PAGE_BACKGROUND or something like that for Excel exporting. In the end I read the comment from Barry which finally helped me also getting the feature in XLS export while defining a new style with the condition expression

Boolean.valueOf( $V{PAGE_COUNT}.intValue() % 2 == 0 )

on it without using a rectangle and a print when expression on it!
Thanks again guys, this went immediatly into my own FAQ for designing JasperReports.

Bze,
