Automatic word-splitting in table cells
Posted: Fri Feb 07, 2014 12:54 pm
Hallo Support,
do you have any form of automation in which the text in a table cell (or text box) is automatically adapted to make the most use of the available space by splitting words?
Here's an example of what I mean.
Here, the word highlighted in yellow could be split so that part of it would fit on the line above. E.g. Berufsunfä- and the rest on the next line. We actually have a database containing most of the words used in our programme and how they can be split. Example: Berufsunfähigkeit is stored as Be\rufs\un\fä\hig\keit, meaning it can be split in 5 places.
Here's an example of how a text could look when it has been split. This example is taken from an older programme of ours which does not use Stimulsoft reports:
Theoretically, at run time, using the given width of a table cell, the font size and type, our word-splitter database and some smart code, I could split words at the end of lines, but if you already have something implemeted which would more or less do the same, I would be most interested to hear it.
Thanks and regards,
John Kitching
