public void addTableEvent(PdfPTableEvent event)
event
- an event that has to be added to the forwarder.
public void tableLayout(PdfPTable table, float[][] widths, float[] heights, int headerRows, int rowStart, PdfContentByte[] canvases)
PdfPTableEvent
PdfContentByte
contained in canvases
.
canvases
are:
PdfPTable.BASECANVAS
- the original PdfContentByte
. Anything placed here will be under the table. PdfPTable.BACKGROUNDCANVAS
- the layer where the background goes to. PdfPTable.LINECANVAS
- the layer where the lines go to. PdfPTable.TEXTCANVAS
- the layer where the text go to. Anything placed here will be over the table. The widths
and heights
have the coordinates of the cells.
The size of the widths
array is the number of rows. Each sub-array in widths
corresponds to the x column border positions where the first element is the x coordinate of the left table border and the last element is the x coordinate of the right table border. If colspan is not used all the sub-arrays in widths
are the same.
For the heights
the first element is the y coordinate of the top table border and the last element is the y coordinate of the bottom table border.

widths
- an array of arrays with the cells' x positions. It has the length of the number of rows
heights
- an array with the cells' y positions. It has a length of the number of rows + 1
headerRows
- the number of rows defined for the header.
rowStart
- the first row number after the header

PdfPTableEventAfterSplit
tableLayout
method and after the table has been drawn on the previous page but before the rest of the table is laid out on the following page. It is meant to allow modifications of the table, e.g. by changing cells. This is useful for situations when some information has to be repeated, like putting "still 2012 | Jan | 1000 $ | 2000 $ | Feb | 900 $ | 2100 $ -------8<----- Page break ------------- still | Mar | 1100 $ | 1900 $ 2012 | Apr | 1200 $ | 1800 $ | May | 1200 $ | 2200 $ ...While this might be emulated by just stamping "still 2012" on the page using the currently available event callback
tableLayout
, that would fail in the case of the page break happening after the November line, because the text "still 2012" would then overlap with the new entry "2013" in the 2013 January line. This problem does not exist when modifying the first cell on the new page because that cell will the be laid out to have sufficient height so that no overlaps occur. Example:
public void afterSplitTable(PdfPTable table, PdfPRow startRow, int startIdx) { PdfPCell cell = startRow.getCells()[0]; cell.addElement(new Paragraph("still " + currentYear)); }Note that determining the value of
currentYear
can be done in
tableLayout
by noting the sizes of the tables laid out there and comparing them with the tracked row indices of the years (via table.getRows()).
