Image in Chunk and changeLeading 2006-08-04 - By Damien Drix
Back
Hello,
I'm using a ColumnText to display some paragraphs, and I'm experimenting
with Chunks that contain an Image.
I'd like the image box to change the ascender and descender of the line
it is displayed on, so that when the text wraps to a new line, it
doesn't overlap with the image. My goal is to reproduce the behaviour of
OpenOffice (or other editors) when an image is anchored as a character
with text wrap set to none.
As it seems, one solution would be to set changeLeading in the Chunk
constructor to true, but this appears to make no difference with
iText-1 (See http://ext-1.ora-code.com).4.3. I also tried setting the leading for the column and the
paragraph with setLeading(0, 1), to no effect.
Does itext-paulo-155 (See http://ulo-155.ora-code.com) implement this behaviour ? I'm trying to test it,
but I'm having problems with methods from
iText-1 (See http://ext-1.ora-code.com).4.3 which do not exist in itext-paulo-155 (See http://ulo-155.ora-code.com), such as
PdfPTable.get/setFooterRows() and the constructor Chunk(Chunk).
I also thought of another solution, which would involve creating a dummy
BaseFont with an ascender and descender reflecting the size and position
of the Image in the Chunk, but I'm not sure it's feasible.
Best regards,
Damien Drix
