Smartform page footer problem

0 Kudos

Hi,

I created a SmartForm that has a different header on the first page header and another on "Next" page .. On every page I have a main window, occupying the rest of the page and in this window I have a loop to generate and print rows in a table. I need to print information in the footer of the page (which has 6.75 cm) after the end of the cycle and I am not able to do that ..

My problem is the loop does not have a fixed number of rows and create a main window leaving the area 6.75 cm at the end of the page I lose that space on every page except the last page (it will have the footer). I also tried to put the information I need in the page footer as the last item in the main window. Work, but if the end loop in the middle of the page, the information will print in the middle of the page not the bottom ...

 

How do I create text / other items in the main window that will be printed only at the bottom of the last page even if the loop does not use all available page space between the header and footer area?

Thanks all!

Best regards.

Hi Renato

Try that :

Create a new window and in tab 'General Atributtes' check 'Final window' and in tab 'Conditions' ckeck 'Only After End of Main Window'.

Add images

Window type = L Final Window

Conditions

'Only After End of Main Window'.

Hi Renato,

I've already tried to do the same once but didn't succeed, guess it's not possible. The way you have to make your footer fixed in form is to create it at another (secondary) window.

But I could guess you're attempting to place footer at main window for some reason, would it be due to multiple pages printing? If yes, please let me know and I will try to explain you how to proceed.

Hi Renato,

You can try like this create a table contains header,main,footer.In the main you place main content.In the footer place one more loop and display the internal table data which you want to place.
