jasper reports; keeping vertical distance between two text fields when top text field stretches with overflow












0















I am currently struggling with the following situation within a Jasper Report:



(Below the logical vertical arrangement)



TextField1 (Stretch with overflow)
(some vertical distance as white space, nothing defined)
TextField2


Desired outcome:
The goal should be that when TextField1 start to vertically stretch itself because it contains too much text - so that it vertically expands (what it already does correctly) that everything (including the white space between TextField1 and TextField2!) moves down.



Current behavior:
TextField1 begins to vertically stretch and eats up the space between TextField1 and TextField2 until it starts to push down TextField2.



How can this be solve without inserting invisible objects within the white space between the two fields?
