Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
FIX_RELATIVE_TO_BOTTOM	If the height of the parent report section is affected by elements that stretch, the current element will try to conserve the original distance between its bottom margin and the bottom of the band.
FIX_RELATIVE_TO_TOP	The element will simply ignore what happens to the other section elements and tries to conserve the y offset measured from the top of its parent report section.
FLOAT	The element will float in its parent section if it is pushed downwards by other elements fount above it.

Enum Constant Detail

FLOAT

public static final PositionTypeEnum FLOAT

The element will float in its parent section if it is pushed downwards by other elements fount above it. It will try to conserve the distance between it and the neighboring elements placed immediately above.

FIX_RELATIVE_TO_TOP

public static final PositionTypeEnum FIX_RELATIVE_TO_TOP

The element will simply ignore what happens to the other section elements and tries to conserve the y offset measured from the top of its parent report section.

FIX_RELATIVE_TO_BOTTOM

public static final PositionTypeEnum FIX_RELATIVE_TO_BOTTOM

If the height of the parent report section is affected by elements that stretch, the current element will try to conserve the original distance between its bottom margin and the bottom of the band.

Method Detail

values

public static PositionTypeEnum[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (PositionTypeEnum c : PositionTypeEnum.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static PositionTypeEnum valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
