Table Of Contents
The childPICTUREATTRIBUTES element lets you specify several picture attributes,
including flip horizontal, flip vertical, angle, background and color, on picture cells
of the table.
This does not create a breakable table. The table will be confined to a single page.
If the number of rows is greater than the available rectangular size of the parent box,
an error is returned stating the table cannot be fit into the available size.
If you deconstruct a table that was created with an <INLINETABLE> element, the
resulting XML describes the table as a <TABLE> element, not an <INLINETABLE>
element.
Column Attributes
An <INLINETABLE> can also include optional <COLGROUP> elements, which allow
you to specify column attrbutes in the form of <TCOL> elements, like so:
<INLINETABLE>
<COLGROUP>
<TCOL COLINDEX="1" WIDTH="250"/>
<TCOL COLINDEX="2" MINWIDTH ="30pt" MAXWIDTH = "90pt"/>
<TCOL COLINDEX="3" MINWIDTH ="20%" MAXWIDTH = "50%"/>
</COLGROUP>
...
The COLINDEX value indicates the column number.
You can specify the WIDTH of a column in points by omitting a unit indicator, or
as a percentage of the table width by including a % after the number.
You can specify the MINWIDTH and MAXWIDTH of a column in points by omitting
a unit indicator, or as a percentage of the table width by including a % after the
number.
If no width is indicated, the column widths will be automatically computed depending
on the length of the text in a cell or image in a cell. The sum total width of all columns
would remain within the bounds of the parent box column width (typically the
Automatic text box into which the table is laid out).
Table Span
An <INLINETABLE> can include an optional SPAN attribute. Values for SPAN can be:
PAGEWIDTH - the table will span the width of the page.
ALLCOLUMNS - the table will span all columns on the page.
the number of columns to span.
<INLINETABLE SPAN="PAGEWIDTH">
....
....
</INLINETABLE>
Using table styles
Table styles make it easy to style inline tables. Rather than applying formatting directly,
you can define a table style, then apply the table style to inline tables like so:
<INLINETABLE TABLESTYLEREF="TableStyle1">
