Short: Powerful FW-Macro to create tables V1.1 Author: galdor@papa.north.de (Carsten Labinsky) Uploader: galdor papa north de (Carsten Labinsky) Type: util/rexx Version: V1.1 (29.12.95) Architecture: m68k-amigaos RELEASE NOTES: V1.1 is a BUGFIX-release with two minor-changes: - Create_Table aborted with ARexx-Error 47 if the decimal notation in FW's global prefs were set to comma (instead of point). - You couldn't see any text within the table, if the fill-style in FW's box prefs were set to solid. This has been fixed. GENERAL INFO (unchanged since V1.0 'cos I'm so lazy ;): This is a powerful AREXX-Macro for FinalWriter. It supports the creation of auto-sized tables of variable widths and heights. Since table-handling is not supported in FinalWriter, this macro may save you a lot of time and frustration while creating them by hand. It will ask you for the table-data using FW's requesters and create a table through the use of FW's standard objects like lines, boxes and text-objects. Layout processing is done auto- matically, based on your settings. The result is a grouped object, that can be sized, copied and placed just like any other graphic-object. Features include: - variable table dimensions - customizable line widths for grid-box - round or normal grid-box corners - equally balanced line and column widths - vertical and/or horizontal header entries - multiple lines of text as table entries - centered or left-justified text entries - individual text-style support - optional title-text - customizable text-flow A FW-Document with examples of created tables is included into the archive to demonstrate all of its features.
