A collegue of mine asked:

  • when a line frame is picted over 2 lines is automatically defined as a vertical line frame.
  • when a line frame is picted over more characters is automatically defined as an horizontal line frame.
  • when a line frame is picted over 1 character is automatically defined as an horizontal line frame.
  • what if I need to pict over a single character a vertical line frame?

I've made some test with U9.7.05.007 but I can't find the way...Any suggestion?

Hi Gianni,

it's not the best option, but if one is really desperate:
just faking it with a "|" in a label/hyperlink or something from the symbol/graphical character set?
Or a homemade glyph with a trimmed screenshot of a 2-line vertical line ?

Hi Uli,

yes, we decided to go straight for the simplest workaround: to fake it with pipe character
...but in a world of graphical things is definitively an ugly solution...and end user was NOT happy with it!

I consider it a bug!

Is there ANY possibility to have features already availableon GUI for Entities/Named Area Frame (partially) supported while printing on Windows or with Enhanced printing?

I mean as base:

  • BorderType
  • BorderColor
  • BorderSize
  • BorderRadius

but hopefully more...

Am I the only one always getting this kind of requests from customer base?

Thank for hearing,
Gianni
