VPE 7.0 - TextBlock

Postby wriedmann » Thu Jul 10, 2014 7:55 am

Hello,

in the TextBlock feature I miss a possibility to write a TextBlock from a line.

Given this: I have a textblock that does not fit on my page. With the textblock object, I'm able to place the first part on my page, but I'm not able to find the part that must be placed on the following page (or column).

So I would need a VpeWriteTextBlockRange function:

VpeCoord VpeWriteTextBlock( VpeHandle hDoc, VpeHandle hTextBlock, VpeCoord Left, VpeCoord Top, int nFirstLine, int nLineCount )

When you write a line, or a range of lines, they are removed from the TextBlock object. Therefore you can simply continue to output the next part in another column or on another page.

Hello Mr. Radde,

ok, thank you. I looked at such a function in the help, but found nothing. Maybe it should be cited in the help page of VpeWriteTextBlock.

Yes, good hint. It is explained in the LineCount property, but not in the WriteTextBlock() method. We will add it.
