Merging cells

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have a table where I (sometimes) want to write content in 3 cells. In the code below the row is nR and the cell is column 4,5,6

But the variable cSvar which contains some words and is too long for cell 4 alone does not show for more than the first word. How can I tell the method that the cell is expanded?

 THIS.oPDF.MergeTableCells(TableID, nR, 4, nR, 6)
 THIS.oPDF.SetTableCellContent(TableID2, nR, 4,'<font size="10pt"><b>'+cSvar+'</b></font>')

	Hi! I don't think that this is possible at runtime. There are still only less html-tags supported by QuickPDF. Take the max. cell-width i would suggest. Cheers and welcome here, Ingo Edited by Ingo - 26 Mar 10 at 6:35AM

	@einar: Merging table cells work as expected. Try to use the correct table id: you posted 2 different ids so the lib hardly can do what you want ;-) @Ingo: HTML syntax works here like a charm (at least with version 7.18 up): font size, color, br and so on do not make any trouble in table cells (as far as I tested: some hundred tables some of them span more than 1 page etc.). Everything works including the final height of the table when drawn. I agree that the manual does not say a word about this, although I would see this a feature worth mentioning. Greetings Franz
