When I use this method (below) none of the data is displayed in the master
(root) table. I can see the cells have been added but there is no data.
//below this is the method to place everything in the table.
public void appendPostnet (String label, String post){
post = removeHyphen(post);
/*
*Construct 1 col table
*add cell with a fixed height of H * .85
*add cell with a fixed height of H * .15
*label in first cell
*zip in the secind cell
*
**/
PdfPTable t = new PdfPTable (1);
t.setTotalWidth(W);
//t.setKeepTogether(true);
//t.setWidthPercentage(100);
PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell (new Phrase(label, DOC_FONT));
cell.setFixedHeight(H * .85f);
//cell.setBorder(Rectangle.NO_BORDER);
t.addCell(cell);
/* if (post.length() > 4 || post.length() < 12) {
BarcodePostnet pnbc = new BarcodePostnet();
pnbc.setCode(post);
cell = new PdfPCell(pnbc.createImageWithBarcode(cb, null,null));
cell.setFixedHeight(H * .15f);
//cell.setBorder(Rectangle.NO_BORDER);
t.addCell(cell);
}*/
add(new PdfPCell(t));
}
/ * ---------------- NEXT METHOD --------------------- */
public void add (PdfPCell cell){
/* adds the actual cell to the table */
/* Every add() calls this method */
cell.setFixedHeight(H);
cell.setNoWrap(NO_CELL_WRAP);
cell.setPaddingLeft(CELL_LEFT_PADDING);
cell.setVerticalAlignment(VALIGNMENT);
cell.setHorizontalAlignment(HALIGNMENT);
if (!DEBUG) cell.setBorder(Rectangle.NO_BORDER); //show table
borders in DEBUG mode
how_many++; //total amount of labels
counter++; // 'int counter' keeps track of how many times
// this method is called within a range of X (X = ACROSS)
table.addCell("");
table.addCell(cell);
if (counter == ACROSS) table.addCell(""); //at the end
if (counter == ACROSS) counter = 0; //if at the end reset the
counter
}
Thanks for any help; by the way this is part of a class to build Avery
Label sheets easily with iText, I'm going to release it as public domain.
The class is complete but this is the only thing I've had a problem with.
