If you have overlapping elements in your report when using the dynamic-height style property, use the following directions to create a two-row details band:
  1. In the Structure pane, select your Details band and then go to the Style pane and change the value of layout to 'block'.
  2. Right-click the Details band, then select band from the Add Element context menu.
  3. Move or add the elements for the first row into your created band.
  4. Add another band, then move or copy all elements for the second row into the second band.
When your first row elements expand, your second row elements will be pushed down. Repeat this process as necessary for multiple rows.
