A horizontally drawn line.
<Output> <HorizontalLine ... /> </Output
Note that Expressions in attribute
settings below depend on the parent node context.
Some may only use constant expressions or query column
references from Independent queries.
Child nodes of <Output>
nodes in
<Report>
context may also
use report query column references.
The line width is measured in points, regardless of the Size unit attribute.
<HorizontalLine size="3" />
Default is 1.0
The possible alignment values are
left
,
right
and
center
. Default is
left
alignment.
The alignment is only applied if the line
length is shorter than the designated page
or column width without the margins.
<HorizontalLine align="'center'" length="200" />
Default is 1.0
Extra indentation for the line. It is measured in points, regardless of the Size unit attribute.
<HorizontalLine indent="15" />
Default is 0.0
The line length.
<HorizontalLine length="150" />
The line length unit depends on the
Size unit attribute.
When set to rlib
,
it is measured in number of characters.
The is influenced by HorizontalLine font size,
Report font size and
Part font size in decreasing order,
which in turn is influenced by
Report font name and
Part font name in decreasing order.
When Size unit attribute is set to
points
, the line length
is measured in points.
Default is unset, i.e. the line is drawn across the page width.
An extra knob to influence line length computation.
See HorizontalLine length.
It is accepted in two forms, font_size
is the preferred one, the other is accepted for
RLIB compatibility:
<HorizontalLine font_size="14" /> <HorizontalLine fontSize="14" />
Default is unset, i.e. only Report font size and Part font size would contribute to the horizontal line width computation.
Horizontal lines may be suppressed. If the parent
<Output>
node is in
<FieldDetails>
, the
expression may be derived from a query field.
<HorizontalLine suppress="yes" />
Default value is false
,
i.e. no suppression.
This color is used to render text. It's accepted
with both American and British spelling.
For RLIB compatibility, it is also accepted
as bgcolor
, with both
American and British spelling.
<HorizontalLine color="'blue'" /> <HorizontalLine colour="'blue'" /> <HorizontalLine bgcolor="'blue'" /> <HorizontalLine bgcolour="'blue'" />
Default is black
.
