Exclude of bands lead to excess whitespace

Context

Setup: JasperReports server Product Version: 6.0.1 Build: 20141218_0238, CentOS server. I am using their bundled PostgreSQL + tomcat server setup.

In my report i have a table with text field and static field & and a chart in the summary band.

the static fields are in columnHeader band, and text fields are in the detail band.

I require the table because i want the users to be able to export CSV data. However when the report is viewed as HTML, i want to exclude the two bands mentioned above (detail/columnHeader).

Problem

I am able to exclude the table so that it's not showed using the following:

net.sf.jasperreports.export.html.exclude.origin.band.1=detail
net.sf.jasperreports.export.html.exclude.origin.band.2=columnHeader

This does hide the two bands mentioned above, however now instead of the data - whitespace is shown, i would to know how i can remove it

Snippet of issue

The red text above was added by me, as you can see there are unwanted white-space between the title and the chart, that was where the columnHeader and detail band were at.

See the JRXML content.

Question

How can I remove the space?

It could be an issue with your styles or theme. I run the report in Jasper studio and there was no white space, but I created dummy styles (table_heading, table_data) and set the default theme for bar chart. Here is my report http://pastebin.com/fnAnvBR1

I'm using JasperStudio 5.6.2

Set the following property to true:

net.sf.jasperreports.export.html.remove.empty.space.between.rows

Earlier versions of JasperReports had a typo, for the property (emtpy instead of empty):

net.sf.jasperreports.export.html.remove.emtpy.space.between.rows

For example:

<property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.html.remove.emtpy.space.between.rows" value="true"/>
<property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.html.remove.empty.space.between.rows" value="true"/>
