Hi again,

I am creating a different type of list of artists and concerts now and would like the headers to to show the names of the first and the last artist on each page.

But as I don't know when a new page is starting I can't set the value for the first name on the page right.

I could try to count the lines but they have differing spacings and I think the renderer can do that a lot better..

So how can I tackle this problem? Is there maybe a callback for the renderer's page change event?

Thanks again for any hints,

Thomas

Hi, Thomas!
None that I know.

You can add a tag to each paragraph - this tag could be a string with the artists name.

After layouting the document, you can use GetDocumentObjectsFromPage (or maybe GetRenderInfoFromPage) to find which tags are on which page.
Then create a new document with correct headers based on the information from the first run.

GetDocumentObjectsFromPage is public, so this is the preferred method.
