Hi Experts,

In my text element in smartforms, I need to provide some fixed space between two columns as below.

txt1 txt2

123456.00 $6789.0

But if value in coulmn1 is nil, then column2 goes to left i.e the alignment is disturbed as below:

txt1 txt2

$67898.0

I cannot put template as i need to provide page protection.

Pls suggest.

thanks

Dan

Hi,

U define a paragraph format in SMARTSTYLES with 2 TABS, then print the variables (text1, text2) with that Paragraph format.

Eg:

P1 &text1&,,&text2&

The 2 comma's respresent a TAB, by doing like above it will freeze the space for each variable.

OR

define a template, split into 2 columns...drop Text1 in column1, text2 in column2..

Hope its clear

Regards,

Pavan

Hi

Create smartstyles (tcode SMARTSTYLES or you can go from the initial screen of tcode SMARTFORMS ) with paragraph name.

Set the tab positions and save

Use this smartstyle in your smartform and assign the paragraph format to the data which is displayed

you can do one thing

if there is no value for text1 the label also should not show.

then the text2 value should come under text2

Hi,

As already said create a paragraph format in smartstyles. with tabs.

Choose as alignment the decimal sign.

Then the print in one text element as &var1&,,&var2&

This should work
