Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Hao Zhou CLA 2011-12-28 02:51:42 EST 
I can't reproduce this issue with latest birt.
Could you provide more detail information about how to reproduce it or a sample report I can test with?
Comment 2 manu077 CLA 2011-12-29 02:04:31 EST 
I made a second time my change and I doesn't have any problem.
