PDFsharp & MigraDoc Foundation

Hello,

I'm new to programming MigraDoc (in C#) but I love it, wirklich!

I have a question about controlling the flow of "panels" on a page, similar to the layout of a newspaper page with variable "panel" sizes which include text content.

A [very] rough depiction is included:


I understand how to use textframes for absolute positioning. Is this what is recommended? Are there any examples anywhere for such positioning?

Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

Henry

MigraDoc can do most things that Word can do - but it's not a DTP tool.

I'm afraid there's no simple way to get what you want.

As long as everything fits on one page, a MigraDoc table can be used to do the trick.

Unfortunately Öhmesh your answer is factually true. However, I have been able to create the look/feel I needed by overloading the RenderObject method so that a RenderInfo object is returned. Then, I interrogate the LayoutInfo.ContentArea properties from this returned object to obtain the exact location of the previously added object.

From there I dynamically/absolutely position subsequent objects, creating exactly the type of page I need. Though...without full-blown "layout support".

Many thanks to you all for creating/improving this codebase!
