How to draw vertical line in iReport?

Question

I am using iReport 3.5.2? to design a report. I have a subreport where I need to have a table.

To build the table I have drawn horizontal lines for rows. However I am not finding any option to make the line vertical so that I can make the columns.

Could anyone please suggest how to do it.

Answer 1

You can make your line Vertical of Horizontal as you like
By changing width and height properties of the line
For example

If you want to draw a Vertical Line

<line>
    <reportElement x="0" y="0" width="1" height="30"/>
</line> 

If you want to draw a Horizontal Line

<line>
    <reportElement x="0" y="0" width="30" height="1"/>
</line> 

Answer 2

line is bad decision, may be problems on page ending/begining use

<style name="cell">
    <box>
        <pen lineWidth="1.0" lineStyle="Solid"/>
    </box>
</style>

for your textField/staticText
