Cell Margins are Ignored for Inline Paragraphs

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

Hello Apose,

I’m migrating from Aspose v11 Generator API to latest v24.9.
I observered this behavior in a table with cell margins:

  1. Margins are behaving like Padding, the distance is drawn inside of the cell, but I did not find the API for padding. But there is a Table.DefaultCellPadding. This is confusing to me. Did I miss something?
  2. the border is drawn around the outside of a cell, but is there a way to have some distance between two cell borders?
  3. If I have inline paragraphs inside of a cell, the Margin and DefaultCellPadding is ignored for the inline paragraph. Is there a workaround?

I used following code for a demo:


 public static void Main()
        {
            Document doc = new Document();
            Page page = doc.Pages.Add();

            var file = TableMargins(page);
            if (File.Exists(file)) { File.Delete(file);}
            doc.Save(file);
            Process.Start(file);
        }
private static string TableMargins(Page page)
        {
            var sequenceTable = new Table
            {
                RepeatingRowsCount = 0,
                Alignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left,
                ColumnAdjustment = ColumnAdjustment.AutoFitToWindow,
                RepeatingColumnsCount = 0,
                Broken = TableBroken.IsInNextPage,
                IsBroken = true,
                DefaultCellPadding = new MarginInfo() { Left = 0, Top = 0, Right = 25, Bottom = 0 },
                Margin = new MarginInfo() { Left = 10, Top = 5, Right = 50, Bottom = 20 },
                DefaultCellTextState = new TextState()
