Related Element Listings

[Joab Stieglitz]

When creating a table of elements, related elements are separated by paragraphs marks. When listing inline, they are separated by commas. Is there a way to use comma separaters in tables?

Also, the inline list has a comma and space before the paragraph mark.

The way to make this look neat is to create a Word style for the text which is going into tables, then change that Word style so that it doesn’t have spaces before and after.

– First create the style in Word, making sure the style names doesn’t have spaces in the name (the Word API doesn’t support these!) and change the ‘paragraph’ settings to remove spaces.

– Then, in eaDocX menu, choose ‘Tools | Options | Word Paragraph Styles | Table Styles’ and select your newly-created style in the ‘Table Body’ row.

So now, whenever eaDocX generates tables, the text in the main body will use this Word style.
…and remember, there are lots of other Styles you can create as well!

To avoid having to do this each time you create a new document, just save the document with a new name, and the eaDocX Profile, with all these setting in it, will be copied as well.
