Paginate Problems

[dsmith5167]

I have a BOM 64 items long. I want to "Break" it into 2 columns. I have done,Table>Paginate, choose Set Extent and pick the row where the table is to be broken. To place the segment, and designate how many rows to show, choose Add Segment, and pick a row from the first segment. The segment will extend to a height one row below that. Problem is when I pick point to insert second column I only get 3-7 lines of BOM and Pro-E sticks the rest on page 2. Any suggestions or comments?

Never mind, you need to pick 2 points when adding segment.
Better instructions.......


1) Select BOMtable (anywhere on table)
2) Menu Pull Down... Table>Paginate
3) Select cell where you want to "break" table at. (someplace around the middle)
4) In menu manager select Add Seigment
5) Pick point at top left of current table (BOM)
6) Select a second point someplace below the bottom of the current table


Whoo Hoo

Just to elaborate on dsmith5167's great instructions, if you do not want to break the BOM in half, here is the skinny on that.


You pick the next row above where you want the BOM segment to end. In your case if you want to have the first segment be 50 rows then you would pick on row 15. Then your second segment will end at 64. If you pick too high then you will get extra blank rows. Too low and the entire BOM will not be shown.

If you pick too high then you will get extra blank rows. Too low and the entire BOM will not be shown.

If you get extra rows for some reason, you can use the "set extent" option once again and select the last item on your new segment.
