Pagebreak in cross tab [message #338838]

Hi,

I ve got a big table with 100 rows and about 20 columns. Lets say talking about
persons
Nr Name Surname Age DateOfBirt ....
1 Meier Bob 31
2 Jones Bobby 15
3 Ford John 13
...

I want to show them in a crosstab. Every column represents a Person:

Nr 1 2 3
Name Meier Jones
Surname Bob Bobby

So i created a crosstab, putting a datacube group into columns area and
and datacube summary fields into the summary area

That works fine except for the problem, that all persons are shown on the
first page and the table is shrinked. So i get a table with 100 columns.
How can i make BIRT using page-breaks every 5 columns, so that i get 20 pages.

I tried setting the pagebreak property inside=>auto on the crosstab, but no effect.

thanks,
Dennis

Horizon page break and Column Area page break haven't supported yet.
Crosstab doesn't support page break interval.

Is it planed to add page break interval(hor and vert.) to crosstab ?

I found another way to do that.

-I created a table first.
-Then i added a group to the table with 5.0 as interval and page break after
every element. Now i get my NumberOfElements/5 pages. And i can put
whatever i want into the group footer.
-Into the group footer i put my crosstab with filtering on data["ID"]
and some script expression to calculate the interval bounds from row["ID"]

But this appears a quite complicated way.
