Correct way to wrap text in iReport

Default behaviour of JasperReport with long string is cut by accord to element length. You can change this behaviour by set "Stretch With Overflow" to True.

Picture 1: Set property for wrap long string.

This solution will bring to ugly result: wrapped element will excel among all neighboring elements:

Picture 2: Not suitable wrap.

If such behaviour is not suitable you can fix it in simple way.For all element in row you must set "Stretch Type" to "Relative to Tallest Object"

Picture 3: Fixing.

 Now height of other elements will accord to wrapped string.

Picture 4: Required result.
