Wrong page break using SpaceBefore etc

1. offizieller Beitrag

    Wp4 - Have a report with just a one row table in the data section.
    Paragraph Space before/After is 0, and the report is almost ok - the page break appear in the right place.

    If Space before/after are set to anything else other than zero, then the page breaks appear in the wrong place (ie there is a lot of blank space at the bottom of each page). It looks like the SpaceBefore value is being doubled or something in the calculation for seeing if a page has been filled.

    Will this be fixed on Wp4? If We need to upgrade to Wp5 (as well as all our freelance programmers) we need to be sure this is fixed in v5.

    We cannt set ignorepageheight as then we get no footer/headers etc.

    Help!

    Hi,

    With spacebefore the engine (WPReporter) has to make security assumptions. This is why you get early page breaks. IBN V4.25 this has already been optimized as far as possible.

    Version 5 only uses the "ignorepageheight" setting, table footers are inserted by the RTF formatting routine as required at the page end. WPReporter will not do any hard page breaks in V5.

    WPTools 5 supports table header and footer rows.

    Calculated values in this table footers can be only implemented as on-paint calculated fields which use the contents of the current page. (Also works in page footers)
