Has anyone worked on the Laytex Templates? I got started on tinkering
with our quotations laytex templates, and the whole column, fixed width.
blah blah... doesn't seem to be working for me. Granted I know nothing
about what I am doing, but I should see some positive results. I'll
attached a copy of where I am currently at, and if you open it...
Number - my main issue here is that... if I type in a 20 digit part
number it pushes everything over 2 inches and refuses to wrap. The
consequences is that it pushes price discout and amount off the viewable
screen.
Description - my temporary fix was to have the description wrap sooner.
But... as a consequence ... if I have a quote to a customer with a
particularly short part number, everything stays too far to the left and
looks funny... and this is the example that I have furnished.
What I need is to be able to force "Number" to wrap after 15 characters
(I need a set column width). And I just don't see how to do it.
Has anyone fixed this before, or have a template that already works that
I may have?
Here is a latex template we currently use. Hope it helps.
