My tables have a Table "columns" attribute that (with a Reference-Page
table) will control a table-specified MasterPage based on column quantity.
My tables have column-quantities from 3-6 and a 2nd group from 10-14.
The 3-6 col. group needs to be on 2-col pages and the 10-14 group on a 1-col
(full) page
I do have 4-different Masters . . . named . . . 2cRT, 2cLft, 1cRt and 1cLft
which do quite well when applied manually, a one or a few pages at a time.
The Section pg count varies from 30pp - 250pp with 0-2 images on full-width
pages and 1-6 images on 2-col pages.
The Section usually begins in full width (mode) and will alternate 1-col to
2-col three to twelve times per Section.
You can see . . . they can get quite busy and . . . what I want is . . .
for the Table-Columns attribute to control pagination MasterPgs upon the
input of the SGML-data file.
Two questions . . .
1. Is this RefPg "Element-Attribute" Table>MasterPg a real, working,
solution?
2. Where can I find written instruct's that offers a "great"
instructional view of How it works and How to make it work?
3. In the "columns" attribute value is the column-count(TEXTnumber) . .
. In the RefPg Table - in the attribute value column . . . Can I enter <8
and cause the 2-col. Master to be used and . . . enter >8 to cause the
full/p-1-col Master to be used???
4. or do I need to spec each col. quantity separately???
Thanks for reading this and double Thanks for answering!
best to all,
dick doll
