Jasperreports multiple subreports overlapping

Question

i have a master detail with 2 subreports back to back vertically they not have to much space because the master report is quite long.... i have specify in both subreports the FLOAT attribute everything works smoothly when the data of both fills in the space assign it in IREPORT but when they have a lot of rows i mean 3 or more rows the second subreport Materiales overlaps the next component... i would like if some subreport need more space it would push the next component down. the TRABAJOS REALIZADOS is into a Frame with Float property but is not pushed down the frame is maintaining the position and gets overlapped by Materiales sub-report..

my ireport design.

my source code some tags are ommited by brevity

<detail>
    <band height="770" splitType="Stretch">
        .... others tags ommited by brevity

You can try by increasing height of detail band and if that doesn't work you can add one more detail, one for each sub-report.

To add detail band right click on "Detail" and add second band and copy second sub-report under this band.
