Nathan McDonald commented on DISPL-381: --------------------------------------- I am looking for a feature similar to this. In a previous project we were using jasper reports to generate PDFs, and one of the really cool things was using a column value to group subsets of data. Example is provided below from one of the jasper samples: http://www.jasperforge.org/jaspersoft/opensource/business_intelligence/jasperreports/samples/FirstJasper.html I've had a bit of a play myself, and with a custom decorator I can get a header row above subgroups (one column marked as group, colspan the sub-header across all columns and place the cell value in). The grouped column still appears in the the following rows which would be nice to hide. This was just a quick play, and obviously not a great way to do it, but shows some proof of concept. > Adding the group column value as a header row to the group results > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: DISPL-381 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DISPL-381 > Project: DisplayTag > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Export, HTML Generation > Affects Versions: 1.1 > Reporter: Suri Babu Batlanki > Fix For: TBD > > Attachments: 28Jul2006-Grouping.html > > > Normally we can group the results by specifying the group attribute of > display:column tag. > But the group column value show as a column in the table. > It would be really helpful if we able to show the group column value as > header row to the group results. > I have attached a html file which depicts what I require... > Thanks for providing an excellent library. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
