Class ContinuousContainer

java.lang.Object

com.itextpdf.layout.properties.ContinuousContainer

       public final class ContinuousContainer extends Object
      

This class is used to store properties of the renderer that are needed to be removed/reapplied. THis is used for processing continuous container property. This behavior is used when we want to simulate a continuous appearance over multiple pages. This means that only for the first and last page the margins, paddings and borders are applied. On the first page the top properties are applied and on the last page the bottom properties are applied.
