SmartForms: Bad foot-area on last page

[Former Member]

Hello,

i have a table with a header and a foot-area.

The table is designed with one line after the header-area.

When i print the table, first i print the header-area, then the lines and then the position-data.

Example:

Position Material Price

-

---

10 abc 120,00

20 def 60,00

sum 180,00

Tax 20,00

total 200,00

Everything would be ok, when the foot-area is completely on the last page.

My problem is only when the foot-area is splitted.

On the "before last" page the foot-area starts.

On the last page i expect the complete header-area with its line and then the foot-area.

Example:

Position Material Price

-

---

10 abc 120,00

20 def 60,00

sum 180,00

<-- next page -->

Position Material Price

-

---

Tax 20,00

total 200,00

But the result is:

First there is the next foot-area-data, then the line, and then the rest of the

Example:

Position Material Price

-

---

10 abc 120,00

20 def 60,00

sum 180,00

<-- next page -->

Tax 20,00

-

---

total 200,00

I hope you can help?!

Wanted to check a basic thing.

In the footer area .........

You can set the conditions on the text elements to be printed only on the last page.

Did you try that.

Hello Ravi,

thanks for your answer, but there are only the following conditions:

- Only on first Page

- not on first page

- only after end of main window

- only before end of main window

- Only on page (listbox with "FIRST" and "NEXT")

so i do not see your condition...

Can you help me?

Hello Ravi,

1. How many windows do you have

about 10 on "FIRST" about 4 on "NEXT"

2. Where is the table node, in which window

In the Mail-Window. The Formular is the Billing-Formular and the Foot-Area ist for the totals, tax and so on

3. How many pages you have

"FIRST" and "NEXT". Some billings are about 2 to 10 pages. The problem is every time the foot-area is splitted over 2 pages

4. Where is the table node, which page

Its in main-window so it is on every page

Thanks!

Hi Dirk,

Kindly check the 'Output options' tab of the header node of the table.

In the 'Print Time' pane, is the check box for 'at page break' checked?

Hope this helps.

Hello Pulkit,

no it isn't because i want the foot-area only on last page, but there without splitting!

Hi Dirk,

I am not sure if you can handle the splitting of the footer into two pages as it contains more than one line.

But you can try having the header on the next page, by checking(enabling) the check box 'at page break' for the header node in the table.

As a result, even if the output of the footer node exceeds the page limit, the contents of the header will come on the next page as well.

Revert back if you need furthe clarifications.

Hi Pulkit,

ok, now i understand what you mean.

Sorry that i missed to describe all the flags in my first message.

The flags are the following (from the beginning of the formular):

Header: 'at page break' and 'at last page'

Foot: 'at last page'

My idea was the same as yours and we both expect the same result..

But read my first message again so you can see the reality.

Regards,

Dirk
