Problem using Table.IsBroken=False

Aspose.PDF Product Family

Hello,

I have a problem using method Table.IsBroken = False with Aspose.Pdf .Net 20.5 : I generate two tables and the second one not fit entirely on the first page.
If I use table.IsBroken = True, the second table is split, that is ok. But what I want it is my second table go entirely on next page : so I use table.IsBroken = False. But my second table is split on the first page, and no rows on the next page (The rest of the table has disappeared).

How can I have my second table entirely on next page ? In further version of Aspose.Pdf (9.0.0) the IsBroken method did not split my second table which send entirely on next page.

Thanks for your answer.

Below a sample code :

Private Sub TestTablesBrokenOrNot(brokenParam As Boolean)
    'Instantiate an object PDF class
    Dim pdf = New Document()
    'Add the section to PDF document sections collection
    Dim page = pdf.Pages.Add()
    'Instantiate a table object
    Dim table1 = New Table()
    table1.Margin.Top = 20
    'Add the table in paragraphs collection of the desired section
    page.Paragraphs.Add(table1)
    'Set with column widths of the table
    table1.ColumnWidths = "100 100 100"
    'Set default cell border using BorderInfo object
    table1.DefaultCellBorder = New Aspose.Pdf.BorderInfo(Aspose.Pdf.BorderSide.All, 0.1F)
    'Set table border using another customized BorderInfo object
    table1.Border = New Aspose.Pdf.BorderInfo(Aspose.Pdf.BorderSide.All, 1.0F)

    table1.IsBroken = False

    'Create MarginInfo object And set its left, bottom, right And top margins
    Dim margin = New Aspose.Pdf.MarginInfo()
    margin.Top = 5.0F
    margin.Left = 5.0F
    margin.Right = 5.0F
    margin.Bottom = 5.0F
    'Set the default cell padding to the MarginInfo object
    table1.DefaultCellPadding = margin

    For rowCounter = 0 To 25
        Dim row1 = table1.Rows.Add()
        row1.Cells.Add("col " + rowCounter.ToString() + ", 1")
        row1.Cells.Add("col " + rowCounter.ToString() + ", 2")
        row1.Cells.Add("col " + rowCounter.ToString() + ", 3")
    Next

    Dim table2 = New Table()
    table2.Margin.Top = 20
    'Add the table in paragraphs collection of the desired section
    page.Paragraphs.Add(table2)
    'Set with column widths of the table
    table2.ColumnWidths = "100 100 100"
    'Set default cell border using BorderInfo object
    table2.DefaultCellBorder = New Aspose.Pdf.BorderInfo(Aspose.Pdf.BorderSide.All, 0.1F, Aspose.Pdf.Color.Green)
    'Set table border using another customized BorderInfo object
    table2.Border = New Aspose.Pdf.BorderInfo(Aspose.Pdf.BorderSide.All, 1.0F, Aspose.Pdf.Color.Green)

    table2.IsBroken = brokenParam

    'Set the default cell padding to the MarginInfo object
    table2.DefaultCellPadding = margin

    For rowCounter = 0 To 13
        Dim row1 = table2.Rows.Add()
        row1.Cells.Add("col " + rowCounter.ToString() + ", 1")
        row1.Cells.Add("col " + rowCounter.ToString() + ", 2")
        row1.Cells.Add("col " + rowCounter.ToString() + ", 3")
    Next

    Dim pdfFileName = If(brokenParam, $"C:\temp\testTableBrokenOK.pdf", $"C:\temp\testTableNotBrokenUncomplete.pdf")

    pdf.Save(pdfFileName)
    Process.Start(pdfFileName)
End Sub

When I call this Sub, brokenParam is set to “False”

@Faf78,

Thanks for contacting support.

We have investigated this on our end. Can you please try to use table2.IsInNewPage = true property on your end and share feedback with us.

Thanks for your answer.

I just test your proposition adding “table2.IsInNewPage = true” and my table2 is effectively complete on the next page, but it’s not exactlé what I want. With this property added my table2 is always on next page, even if it fit in the current page…
For example for the table1 create only 4 rows : the table2 should be on the first page, not on the second one.

In the previous Aspose Pdf V9.0.0, the table2 was on the first page if it can fit on it, and on the next page if not, just with “.IsBroken = False” property. Could I do the same thing with version 20.5 ?
