Dynamic text with page number [message #897261]

Yo,

I need print a page number concatenated with columns from database in dynamic text.
The autotext - "page Number" and "confidential - Page#" - don't solve my problems 'cause the text can (or not) have a line break.
When i put the "pageNumber" doesnt work (stay ever in 1).Create a variable and try iterate on pagebreak from layout too.

Need do it in Masterpage (grid on header).

Suggests?

- Birt Version: 3.7.2
- Format output: pdf

How are you running the report? Are you using the viewer or the Report
Engine? Try using the pageNumber in and then in the designer run it to
the viewer then export to pdf.

Can you reproduce in a sample report using the sample db to show the
issue? When you tested you previewed using the web viewer which shows
it in html and then exported from the web viewer menu to pdf?

The same happened when I tried web viewer and latter export pdf.
I need do it like in sample (annex), in masterPage. Variables too are accepted.

PS:(birt 3.7.2)

Look at the attached modified example. Keep in mind though the way you
have all the text in one field it will only produce 2 pages in html and
this will not match the pdf which will be 4. If you had this is in a
list or table rows html and pdf would match. Or string split the text
into multiple grid rows.
