You use the table layout to determine:

• The number of lines and cells
• The height of each line
• The width of each cell
• The alignment of the table in the window
• Whether and where to display separator lines or frames

Create a template node and maintain the attributes Width, Horizontal alignment, and Vertical alignment (See F1 help).

Use the table control on the Template tab to define the layout of the lines. Each line of the template must have a definition. You can use one line in the table control to define either the layout of one template line or a common layout for several template lines:

• Use the columns From and To to specify the lines of your template, for which the definition applies. The numbering starts with 1. The intervals in the line definition may neither overlap nor leave gaps.
• The Height you specify applies for all cells of this line. Specify a Width for each cell you want to display. The sum of the width values must amount to the specified Width of the template.
• You can reuse the Name of the template line for other lines of the same template. Enter it in the Reference column of the desired lines. The system then copies the values you specified for the line height and the individual cell widths.

Use the Pattern box to select the desired table pattern.

You define the following lines in the table control (in the example without measurement units):

You use the Pattern box to specify that all cells are separated by visible lines and that the template is framed.

On the form, the template may look like this:
