Hi everybody, this is my first post in the forum. So, first of all i wanna thank you all the team for this amazing and powerful library.

I was wondering (I searched in the forum before asking) if is it possible to define a Style with line breaks in it. Since .SpaceAfter seems to have no results for me. This is the way i define a style:

Code:

        style = document.Styles("Heading1")
        style.Font.Name = "Tahoma"
        style.Font.Size = 15
        style.Font.Bold = True
        style.Font.Color = Colors.DarkBlue
        style.ParagraphFormat.PageBreakBefore = True
        style.ParagraphFormat.SpaceAfter = 15

Thanks

The PageBreakBefore is also not working. What i'm doing wrong? I've tried to create a new style too, with no effects.

Code:

        style = document.AddStyle("MyHeading1", "Heading1")
        style.ParagraphFormat.PageBreakBefore = True
        style.Font.Bold = False
        style.ParagraphFormat.SpaceAfter = "15"

PD: Font color, size, name... are working as spected

I've just figured it out. If the style is used this way:

Code:

        Dim paragraphTitle As DOM.Paragraph = section.AddParagraph()
        paragraphTitle.AddFormattedText("Curabitur libero lacus")
        paragraphTitle.Style = "MyHeading1"

the ParagraphFormat properties defined in the style are ignored, but if you add the paragraph with the style this way, it works as expected:

Code:

section.AddParagraph("Lore ipsum titolo tiulo", "MyHeading1")

I ignore if this is already defined somewhere in the wiki...i could not find it.

Thanks anyway

Hi!

Maybe because the formatted text also has a style. (Could be a feature, not a bug.)
You can use "var para = AddParagraph("Text goes here");" and then set the style of the paragraph.
AddFormattedText is only needed to mix several styles in a single paragraph.

Ok, i understand. And when you use "AddFormattedText", just the "Font" properties of the defined style apply. And the "ParagraphFormat" properties have no effect.

Is that right?
