[Rlib-users] Table Structure and Line Heights

[Jim N. <ji...@di...>]

One small thing that has been bugging me is that the lines sometimes get 
covered up by the backgrounds.

Your pages_across.php example does this on the 2nd page (first page is fine).

Your parts.pdf example on your home page does this.....the line after the 
background (in the field header portion) is thicker than the part with the 
background - it is getting covered up by the background.  I would suggest 
you have a math problem.

Also...any chance of introducing the idea of a HTML like table 
structure?  That would give me better control of the look of the page - for 
example, I want to be able to put vertical lines between columns - right 
now there is no way to do it.  If I had a way of saying <this is the start 
of a cell value=data.name><verticalline size="1"></end of a cell value>
then I could put anything I wanted inside that cell and align it the way I 
want.

Specifically, I would like to be able to create a really nice looking 
invoice with both vertical and horizontal lines and images etc.  You can 
already create vertical lines (sort of), by specifying a horizontalline 
with a size="100" and a length="1".

Jim
