PDF report & text (memo fields)

Applications Report PDF
#1

Amigos,

is there a way to show several text (memo) fields one after each other automatically. As it is now, the Y position depends on the value indicated for each field which is not really useful when you have dynamic text fields with changing number of lines (2-20 lines).

cheers

Re: PDF report & text (memo fields)

Could you do something like:

select notefield1 from table t1
union
select notefield2 from table t2

(or create a view)

Or did you mean to show the same field and make the field height dynamic to the amount of data?

Regards,
Scott.

Re: PDF report & text (memo fields)

Hi Scott,

on the PDF report, I want the height of the field to be dynamic depending on the amount of data; then comes blank line and then next field. Using the Y position is not useful as it gives fixed position of the fields disregarding the amount of data in each field which causes overlapping of fields.

Appreciate your support.

cheers

Re: PDF report & text (memo fields)

You may have to contact support directly (email) on this one. I am not sure if placing a short memo field in a PDF will auto-expand to the data. I would think this would be the default behavior.
I would think a Y of zero would auto position the next entry.

This is a borderline bug IMO.

Scott.
