Different results by generating PDF-Documents [message #719208]

I try to hide the master footer when the page size is bigger then one. The Result is fine when I generate the PDF dokument from eclipse with the function "View Report as PDF". When I do the same from my code I get the footer on every page.

The following lines I use to hide the footer
if(pageNumber > 1){
this.getStyle().display ="none"
}

I use the Birt Runtime 3.7.0

To generate the pdf I use the following lines

IReportEngineFactory factory = (IReportEngineFactory) Platform
				.createFactoryObject(IReportEngineFactory.EXTENSION_REPORT_ENGINE_FACTORY);
		// create a new report engine
		EngineConfig engineConfig = new EngineConfig();

IReportRunnable runnable = engine.openReportDesign("new_report.rptdesign");
			IRunAndRenderTask task = engine.createRunAndRenderTask(runnable);


PDFRenderOption option = new PDFRenderOption();
option.setOutputFileName("Tagesorder.pdf");
option.setOutputFormat(PDFRenderOption.OUTPUT_FORMAT_PDF);
task.setRenderOption(option);

Do you have this script on the onRender? I just tried this with the RE
API and put it on the date text elements onRender event and it worked.

Here is the Master-page Code
I put the code in the onRender Method.

Exciting is when I delete everything from my report and add the sample Datasource that everything works fine. But with my skripting datasource I got the failure that the footer is never hide. It works in Eclipse when I use "View Report as PDF" but my Problem is I can't try it out with my report because the Application opens a ssh connection and load the Data from a server and this does not funktion when I use the Eclipse integrated viewer. I belive that the integrated viewer use some other PDFRenderingOptions but I dont know what.

I tried this with the attached scripted data set report and could not
reproduce the issue. Do you have a way I could reproduce it?

I resolved the Problem.
I made a beginner failure. When I run BIRT from a application the pagenumber will not be set with IRunAndRenderTask.
When I made the same with a seperate IRunTask and IRenderTask everything works fine.

Thanks a lot for your time.
