I can't break a table row between pages (going nuts!)

I'm setting a several page table (one of a few I need to set for a book) with long texts in many of the cells. I'm using CS3 InDesign on a new Mac. I've looked at similar threads (been struggling with this all day).
The paragraph style and table style both specify 0 lines to keep together. There is no cell style.
The maximum height for rows is taller than the page.
The Word document I'm importing from lets the rows break across pages.
When I add a row with vertically overset text, the row disappears. If I increase the size of the frame below the page, the row shows up.
I am ready to run screaming into the night.
Any help would be deeply appreciated.

It's one of the limitations of InDesign ...
A bad -- but working -- manual way, is to insert a new row below the offending one and copy as much lines as needed into the new one. (Sigh -- I can't believe I'm actually proposing this.)

How can i mark a Table Row in WebDynpro ?

Hi at all,
i have a problem in my WebDynpro View
In my WebDynpro-View there is a Table (Information about Invoice documents, around 50 lines) and the User can select all this rows by click with a mouse.
Another way for selecting rows is on the Top of the Table (left side) there is a Context-Menü, where the User can click by mouse "Select all rows". For this i have created a Action "onSelect" and can select all Elements from the Table.
But the main problem here is, that i cant "mark" the rows in the Table, the User can't see, that all rows is marked!
(Example "Screenshot" of my description is attached)
How can i solve this problem?
With best thanks
Ersin

Hi Ersin,
To select all records for processing in your WebDynpro table , the table node property Initialize Lead Selection drop down should be marked no. also Cardinality Property must be 0..N & Selection 0...N.
If multiple selections can be made in the Table, that is, if selectionMode = multi or multiNoLead, or ifselectionMode=auto and dataSource has selection cardinality 0..n or 1..n, the user can select or deselect rows using the menu. If the user chooses Select All , the lead selection stays. If no lead selection is set, no lead selection can be set when Select All is chosen. If user chooses Deselect All , the lead selection is deleted too.You can find an example in the system in component WDR_TEST_TABLE under Selection.

Orphan table header at bottom of page when page breaks a table across multiple pages

Hi all,
I think similar questions have been asked before but I have not found an answer.
Here's the scenario:
I have several dynamic tables in a dynamic form. The layout is flowed, and everything can grow and shrink as needed. That all works.
However, my tables have headers. Occasionally when one of these tables is large and needs to break across multiple pages, there will be just enough room at the bottom of the previous page to show the next table header, but not enough space to show any of the related table rows. So it ends up looking silly, with just an orphaned header at the bottom of one page, and then the table continues on the next.
I have my tables set up so that headers get repeated on subsequent pages, by setting the header row to "repeat row for each data item" on the binding tab. I would like to keep that functionality, but I just want to find a way to avoid these "orphaned" table headers that sometimes appear.
I have tried the "keep with next" option. However, although this does push the rendering of the header to the next page, it seems that according to livecycle the table still officially began on the previous page. Therefore I get a duplicate header because of the "repeat row for each data item" option.
I have also tried having two header rows, one that is set to only be displayed on the initial page, and the other that is set to appear only on subsequent pages (pagination tab). This did not work - I ended up with duplicate table headers.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!

You shouldn't have "repeat row for each data item" selected for header rows.
You should have "include header row in initial page" and "include header row in subsequent pages" selected on the Pagination tab.
Then using a "keep with next" might work ok.

Flowing table rows across pages

Is there a way that when using tables you can flow rows across pages automatically like you can in MS word?
Thanks

ID splits tables only between cells rows, not mid-row, but it will certainly split a table between frames.

How can I make a table span multiple pages?

Hi guys,
I really hope someone can help me out. First off I am a indesign novice. I have primarily been using indesign scripting to take other user's indesign documents and generating dynamic previews and PDFS with indesign server 2014 (it's pretty cool stuff).
Someone gave me an indesign document that has a table that starts off in the middle of the page and depending on how many rows they want the table to be it should bump the overflow'ed table rows to the 2nd page.
In indesign I have tried to link the text frames together. It looks ok in indesign as the linked content shows up on page two.
Whenever I run the script to generate the preview JPEG the table on page 1 gets cut off and doesn't render anything on page 2.
Using a script I was able to examine all the textframes on the page and none of the text frames have their "overflows" property set to true.
What am I doing wrong here? I'm sure there are a million things I'm missing but what are some of the basic things I can look for. I'm totally lost here guys.
Thanks,
Dustin

I'm not familiar with the script you are talking about, but if you want to make Jpegs of your pages, the best route is to export the document as PDF, and then open in Photoshop, where you can save as Jpeg. If creating Jpegs was not your goal, can you explain further?

Table Overflow - Page Break - Multiple tables in Body page in Adobe forms

Hi,
I have to do a payslip in Adobe forms. I am using only Adobe for print forms.
Please redirect me to correct category if this is wrong category.
I am customizing standard form PYXXFO_SAP_PAYSLIP_IN01. (payslip for india through hrforms)
The standard form is entirely positional. So, if the contents of the table overflow, they are overwritten on the contents below.
So, I have to make corrections to adjust the payslip for table overflows.
My changes:
1. There are total 8 tables in form. I created content areas for each of them and assigned the subforms/tables to those content areas.
2. I converted the body page from positional to flowed, and applied the related pagebreak settings.
The problem I am facing:
When the earnings table overflows, the rest of the content is displayed on second page, in a continuous manner.
eg.
The structure of the form is:
Header details
earnings table   deductions table   form16 table
Other tables
leave details
now, if the earnings table overflows -
page 1:
Header details
earnings table (page break)
Page2:
(continued)earnings table
page3:
(continued)earnings table   deductions table   form16 table
Other tables
leave details
In this, the deduction table and form16 table is shown on 3rd page. I wish to show them on the first page as they have not overflown.
I am sure, I am missing something very small, but I am unable to understand what.
I tried all the possible combinations.
Does the main subform needs to be "positional"?
They way I expect it is:
page 1:
Header details
earnings table (page break)    deductions table   form16 table
Other tables
leave details
Page2:
{Header details - It would be great if I could have this}
(continued)earnings table
page3:
{Header details}
(continued)earnings table
Also, If this is successful, I would like to apply the same feature to rest 6-7 tables.

This was a duplicate question.
Kindly remove this thread if possible.
The solution for this thread is as follows:
I was sort of hoping that there should be some standard functionality available for this, it being Adobe, but there is not.
So, I had to run a work around. Quite a lengthy one.
What the problem was:
I needed to print around 4-5 tables adjacent to each other in single page and in verticals. What Adobe does is: it fills 1st table, then 2nd then 3rd and so on. So, if there is a page break due to large entries in the adobe, the contents breaks with rest of the tables being blank, but the content being filled sequentially.
What I did was:
I created a grand table with the structure having all the tables embedded in it. eg.
data: begin of grand_table occrs 0,
table_A type table_a_table_type,
table_B type table_b_table_type,
table_c type table_c_table_type,
end of grand_table.
Hence, I could include all the data in a one single grand table, and put the data in sequential manner.

Can I change the dashed line between pages in 2up Display mode?

Did anyone ever figure out an answer to this query: Remove dashed page lines in two up mode?
Or did it get fixed or modifiable in a later version?
I'm viewing a pdf in two-up mode and I hate the dashed line Acrobat uses to indicate the gutter line between pages.
I don't want to export as spreads from the indd doc because it ruins pagination.
I wouldn't mind changing it to a solid hairline. the dashes are really distracting.
I don't like Showing Gaps between pages either.
Anyone have a way to modify that dividing line in regular two-up mode?
Thanks.

Is there a way to change this?
No.

How to copy table rows between two tables?

Hi,
We are using the advanced table to specify any kind of data in a structured way. Sometimes I like to move a row from the second table to a the first or reverse.
Any time when I select a row the "paste" activity moves all the selected table fields into one single field in the target table. So it is not a row copy as I like to see it.
How can I manage this better?
Thanks
Volker

Volker,
So WYSIWYG copying messes up the row? If you send me a screen shot of what happens (just to be clear what Advanced table means to you) I will raise a bug if I can reproduce it.
I will report this back up the PM chain but as a workaround I would flip into WIKI markup mode and use the copy and paste in that mode. This will make sure the stuff ends up in the correct place.

Sap.table.table onAfterRendering event breaks the table rows and cols

Hi guys,
I am coloring all the rows, which don't have an entry.
I do that by using the event onAfterRendering from the table control.
The coloring is working fine, but the rows and cols get broken as u can see on the attached picture.
By adding a new entry to the table, they get fixed.
Any ideas how could i fix that?
I appreciate any help.
Regars,
Georgi

This is because you have overwritten the library code :-)
please do this.
<yourControl>.onAfterRendering = function() {
sap.ui.table.Table.prototype.onAfterRendering.apply(this);
<your code> ....

Please help..it's Urgent..How to fetch the value from table row from Page

Hi,
I have created a table with 2 LOV's , LOV2 is dependent on LOV2.
Here I can not use the general Dependent LOV concept, as these values are coming from 2 different LookUps.
I am not able to fetch the user input for LOV1 (from page) .that is why not able to set the where cluse fro 2nd LOVVO.
I have used this code:
if ("ViolationCat".equals(lovInputSourceId)) {
OAMessageLovInputBean msglov =
(OAMessageLovInputBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("ViolationCat");
// String p_violation_category = "'"+(String)msglov.getValue(pageContext)+"'";
String p_violation_category =
(String)msglov.getValue(pageContext);
// System.out.println(" p_violation_category =" +
// p_violation_category);
String v_violation_category = "";
//System.out.println("vcat=" + vCat);
OAViewObject violationVO =
(OAViewObject)am.findViewObject("SNI_Violation_DtlsVO2");
Number vcatViolationIdnum =
(Number)violationVO.getCurrentRow().getAttribute("ViolationId");
String vcatViolationId = "" + vcatViolationIdnum;
pageContext.putTransactionValue("vcatViolationId",
vcatViolationId);
pageContext.putTransactionValue("p_violation_category",
p_violation_category);
String query =
" SELECT LOOKUP_CODE, \n" + " MEANING, \n" +
" LOOKUP_TYPE \n" +
" FROM apps.fnd_lookup_values \n" +
" WHERE LOOKUP_TYPE ='SNI_VIOLATION_CATEGORY' AND MEANING=?";
PreparedStatement ps = txn.createPreparedStatement(query, 1);
try {
ps.setString(1, p_violation_category);
ResultSet rs = ps.executeQuery();
//System.out.println("before while,");
// rs.next();
// v_violation_category = rs.getString("LOOKUP_CODE");
// System.out.println("v_violation_category="+v_violation_category);
while (rs.next()) {
//System.out.println("inside while");
v_violation_category = rs.getString("LOOKUP_CODE");
// System.out.println("v_violation_category=" +
// v_violation_category);
ps.close();
} //try ends
catch (Exception e) {
e.getMessage();
//System.out.println("in catch.." + e.getMessage());
OAViewObject subCatVO =
(OAViewObject)am.findViewObject("SNI_ViolationSubCategoryVO1");
//System.out.println("get VO before where clause: subCatVO::"+subCatVO.getQuery());
subCatVO.setWhereClause("LOOKUP_TYPE like '%SNI_VIOL_SUB_CAT_" +
v_violation_category + "'");
System.out.println("after set where clause VO: subCat VO::" +
subCatVO.getQuery());
subCatVO.executeQuery();
// System.out.println("query of subCat VO::" +
// subCatVO.getQuery());
//End of sub category Validation
It is working fine only for the 1st row of teh table.
I have tried to fetch the value using :
String violationCategory = (String)violationVO.getCurrentRow().getAttribute("ViolationCategory");
String violationSubcategory = (String)violationVO.getCurrentRow().getAttribute("ViolationSubcategory");
But it is fetching null value.
Please tell me how can I able to fetch the values.

Hi
in your scenarion,first u have to identify the particular row of table where the changes is being made ,u have to use this code .when u select the lov ,first it will give the row refernce and then u have to catch the lov event
OAApplicationModule am =
(OAApplicationModule)pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
String event = pageContext.getParameter("event");
if ("<ItemPPREventName>").equals(event))
// Get the identifier of the PPR event source row
String rowReference =
262
pageContext.getParameter(OAWebBeanConstants.EVENT_SOURCE_ROW_REFERENCE);
Serializable[] parameters = { rowReference };
// Pass the rowReference to a "handler" method in the application module.
am.invokeMethod("<handleSomeEvent>", parameters);
In your application module's "handler" method, add the following code to access the source row:
OARow row = (OARow)findRowByRef(rowReference);
if (row != null)
thanx

CS3 table strokes between pages

I am importing a large Excel document into CS3. I have a table style applied that makes a horizontal stroke once every five lines of data. This file takes up several pages, and when the table gets split in two pages or two text boxes at a second, third, or fourth row, the bottom border drops out (indesign keeps the formatting of the the row stroke, which is none) Is there a way to have those certain rows act as table borders?

It's one of the limitations of InDesign ...
A bad -- but working -- manual way, is to insert a new row below the offending one and copy as much lines as needed into the new one. (Sigh -- I can't believe I'm actually proposing this.)

How to use script to get the first table row on each page?

I create a print form to display a table. I set a conditional page break on this table, so the table rows on each page could be different.
For example, there're total 50 rows in this table. On the 1st page, there're 5 rows, but on the 2nd page, there're only 2 rows, and so on...
Now I want to get some value from the 1st table row on each page. How can do that? I can refer to a table row using TableRow[n], but I don't know how to calculate 'n' in script (either FormCalc or JavaScript) for the 1st row on each page.
Any ideas?

Hi Wei,
There is an option of setting the overflow header in the pallette. You may check that out. It is basically used to have the table header to be seen in all pages, if the table is overflowing to multiple pages. You may put your first row as the overflow header.
- hope this helps, Kindly update,
thanks and regards,

Making table row as current row on expand

Hi,
I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.5.0
I have a table with detailstamp facet enabled. Each row is having an arrow icon to expand that row.
My issue is that the expand row action seem to work independently with the table row selection. When I expand any row, it doesn't make that row as current. I tried with the below code to make the table row current, but could not do it.
    public void makeCurrentRow(RowDisclosureEvent rowDisclosureEvent) {
        usersTable = (RichTable)(rowDisclosureEvent.getSource());        //usersTable is the binding of the table on the page
        RowKeySet discloseRowKeySet = usersTable.getDisclosedRowKeys();
        usersTable.setSelectedRowKeys(discloseRowKeySet);
        AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(usersTable);
    }Please let me know how can i make the table row as current on expanding that row.
regards,
Rajan

Hi Timo,
Really sorry for my confusion.
I tried with the example in the pdf. Below is the code
    public void makeCurrentRow(RowDisclosureEvent rowDisclosureEvent) {
        RichTable _table = (RichTable) rowDisclosureEvent.getSource();
        CollectionModel   _tableModel = (CollectionModel) _table.getValue();
        JUCtrlHierBinding _adfTableBinding = (JUCtrlHierBinding) _tableModel.getWrappedData();
        DCIteratorBinding _tableIteratorBinding = _adfTableBinding.getDCIteratorBinding();
        Object _selectedRowData = _table.getSelectedRowData();
        JUCtrlHierNodeBinding _nodeBinding = (JUCtrlHierNodeBinding) _selectedRowData;
        Key _rwKey = _nodeBinding.getRowKey();
        _tableIteratorBinding.setCurrentRowWithKey(_rwKey.toStringFormat(true));
        AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(usersTable);
    }the example is not making the expanded row as current one. I am still getting data for 1st row only. I tried adding the partial target to my usersTable in the end. but that too...didn't work.
Please let me know where i am missing.
regards,
Rajan
