Exaprom PDF: how may cells span multiple rows in the table body?

Solved!
Go to solution

I'm using Exaprom PDF but I have a case I just can't get to work.

I would like to generate a table where a cell spans on an entire row in the table body, the table should result as:

____________

|__|__|__|__|

|__|__|__|__|

|___________|

|__|__|__|__|

 

Dear Jean-Marc,

could you post an example how to span a cell on an entire row in the table body with the function "Append Customized Table.vi."

 

For the example, please use the 2009 version.

 

Thanks,

Asper

The example works fine, thanks a lot!


One more question, place an image inside the table cell works perfectly, but
is it possible to have text and images together inside the same table cell?


In affirmative case, which is the image placeholder?

No it is not possible with this toolkit (User Manual - page 17):

 

Table Image or Text.png

In fact, with iTextSharp it is possible to have "text +image" in a phrase.  We could put this phrase (text + image) in a table cell but, you have to modify the toolkit and it is not small modifications...

That is indeed really helpful example!

I wonder if the vertical merge working or not, since there is no VMerge in the control interface while in the structure it has the VMerge field. 

I need do some vertical merge, but it just not works.

 

Thanks
