PDFsharp & MigraDoc Foundation

I am trying to achieve following matrix kind of layout:

TABLE1,1 TABLE1,2
CHART2,1 TABLE2,2
TABLE3 --> occupies whole row
CHART4 --> ocupies whole row
CHART5,1 CHART5,2

These components may span over multiple pages. What is the best way to have them side by side and still be able to view them in MigraDoc.

CHART5,1 could be a combination of 4 charts in one cell.

In HTML view I can use following analogy:

<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD>TABLE1,1</TD> <TD>TABLE1,2 </TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>CHART2,1</TD> <TD>TABLE2,2 </TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>TABLE3</TD colspan =2>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>CHART4</TD colspan =2>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>CHART5,1</TD> <TD>CHART5,2 </TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>

Hi!

The MigraDoc equivalent for "colspan=2" is "MergeRight=1". This is a property of the Cell class.

Thanks for the reply.

If I insert a table in a cell then I am facing following issue:

If table was supposed to be rendered on two pages, it is restricted to only 1 page. As cell doesn't let the nested table render on to the next page. The changes suggested on the suggested forum didn't help me.

With version 1.50 MigraDoc still does not split table cells.
So use tables in tables with care.
Maybe you can use a smart combination of MergeRight and MergeDown instead of nested tables.
