Jasper Report column break with group by

I am creating a Jasper report using iReport 5.1.0 output to pdf. I have made report based on group by clause. The group starts from 1st page itself but I want that to start from 2nd page so that i can show, page header, footer and title(without any content but an empty frame). How to do that? I used a column break but that skips detail band also so not working. Also, please tell if and how to set background for report.

Regarding the breaks, You need to use the Page Break instead of Column Break just before the Group header, so that every single group starts from the new page. And even the first page can be blank as per your requirement.

Or what can be a better option is , You can click on the Group header node in the Report Inspector and there you can see a property called Start on a new Pag**e so if you **check this property you can see that all your groups automatically start on a new page.

For setting the background of the report you can see the node called Background in the report inspector. You can just navigate to that node give the height of the Background band and there you can add the image element from the palette and assign *the* image to be displayed in the background to the image element.

Hope that this helps Thanks
