TemplateTableParts

AtemplatemayconsistofsixdifferentTableparts:

header,pageheader,row,intermediaterow,pagefooterandfooterbutalltheseTablepartsneednottobepresentineachtemplate.ForexampleasimpleGeneralNotetemplatecontainingonlytextusuallyhasonlya‘Header’.EachTablepartofthetemplateconsistsoflines,arcs,text,symbols,fillareasortextfields.Reporttemplatesaresimilartodrawingtemplatesbutonlyincludeitems,whichcanbeprintedtoanASCII-file.ie.Theycannotcontaingraphics.

Tablepartsaredefinedbydrawingtablepartframesaroundtheobjectstobeincludedintothedecidedtablepart.Thereferencepointforhorizontalandverticalpositioningoftablepartsiscalculatedbytheextremesoftheobjectsinside,notbythetablepartframes.Thepositioningcanbecontrolledwiththemarginproperties.Theoutputofrowsandintermediaterowscanbecontrolledwith‘Rules’（otherwiseknownasTemplateConditions）.SeeSection“Template-Conditions”.

Note:

AllobjectsmustbecompletelyinsidetheTablePartframe!

Header

TemplateObjects

Agraphical（ie.Drawing）templatecancontain:

•Lines（drawing）

•Fillareas（drawing）

•Symbols（drawing）

•Text（drawing/report）

•Textfields（drawing/report）
