In this tab, you specify and define the constant part -
the label lines - which make up the layout of your current Report.
A dynamic print preview window displays a simulation of the label
lines output.
Before you begin
Defining/modifying the label lines which make up the layout
of your Report, must be done in the
-L Lines tab
of the Report editor.
About this task
You create your layout label lines in the
-L Lines
Definition table.
Procedure
- If there is no -L line yet in the -L Lines Definition table, click Add to create a first line.
Otherwise, set your cursor on a line already defined, and click the
then. As a result, a new line is inserted just after the former line.
- A default zero value is assigned to the label line to identify
the label on the line. An icon with a red cross warns you that the
label must be defined. To define the characteristics of the label,
you can directly enter the required values in the editable column
cells or complete the corresponding fields in the Label Definition section, which opens at the bottom of
the tab.
- Click the line then to refresh and display the label identifier
and the line label numbers.
- To delete label lines in your layout, click Remove.
- To organize the lines differently in the layout, use the
move up or down buttons.
- To display a view of your layout before you start generating,
click Preview in the Label Definition section. A preview window gives you a dynamic view of the lines
you have created in the -L Lines tab. You can
leave the window open and see instantaneous updates.
