about odd and even row implementation with ireport

Use conditional style.

A conditional style has two elements: a Boolean condition expression and a style. The
style is used only if the condition evaluates to true.

We have following code snippet to get alternating row color.

In this example, element with this style will get red backcolor. But the presence of conditional style changes the behaviour and when rendered on an even row, the same element will have blue backcolor.

A conditional style override the properties of parent style.


Hope this helps..

<style name="alternateStyle" fontName="Arial" backcolor="red">
    <conditionalStyle>
        <conditionExpression>
                 new Boolean($V{REPORT_COUNT}.intValue() % 2 == 0)
        </conditionExpression>
        
        <style backcolor="blue"/>
    </conditionalStyle>
</style>

where i implement conditional style

how i put the rectangle below the text field ?and the text field must have particular properties such transparent on so on ?

if you are using iReport for designing report file then you can draw a rectangle and send it to back.

Its like, you'll draw a rectangle in detail section, right click the rectangle and from the context menu send it to backward.

done thx
