Group a table and display 2 groups side by side covering the width of PDF
shathwar
Hello All,<br />
<br />
I have a requirement to group a table by a dataset field called "category". The number of categories can vary from 2 to 15. Challenge is to show 2 groups side by side. <br />
<br />
Here is the visual example that I am after with number of categories restricted to 3.<br />
<br />
======================== PDF width =====================<br />
<br />
Group1 (G1) <p class='bbc_center'>Group2 (G2)</p>
<br />
G1Col1 G1Col2 <p class='bbc_center'>G2Col1 G2Col2</p>
...<br />
<br />
Group3 (G3) <br />
G3Col1 G3Col2 <br />
<br />
So far I am only to able to achieve this.<br />
<br />
============= PDF width ===========<br />
Group1 (G1) <br />
G2Col1 G2Col2 <br />
<br />
Group2 (G2) <br />
G2Col1 G2Col2 <br />
<br />
Group3 (G3) <br />
G3Col1 G3Col2<br />
<br />
Any help or pointers on how to achieve this would be much appreciated.<br />
<br />
Cheers.

Alternatively, is there a way to get the group iteration number? that way i can put two tables and one with groupIteratorCount%2 == 1 and one with groupIteratorCount%2 == 0
