Section
class represents the sections of a report.Each report consists of several sections which are associated with
Area
s of type: Report Header, Page Header, Group Header,
Detail, Group Footer, Report Footer and Page Footer.Here you can add elements to your report, like lines, boxes, text fields, pictures and of course fields with dynamic content, called
FieldElement
.
To do this you can use the various add methods of this class.The height and the width of a section is generated dynamically. Always when you are adding an element the section height and width would be checked. Use the
ReportComponent.setHeight(int)
and ReportComponent.setWidth(int)
methods for changing it
manually.All elements in a section are bundled in a
Vector
, that you
can access with getElementsV()
.
The index of each element is the position in this Vector
object.
You need the index if you want to remove an element (with remove(Element)
).
This class is part of the RDC.
