Operations Menu - Form Template - Row Styles

This page describes the 'Row Styles' function on the Operations menu in the Form Template record window.

---

In some records (Opportunities, Project Budgets, Quotations, Sales Orders, Sales Invoices and Stock Movement Invoices), the matrix can contain rows of different types. Examples are the rows containing the Items, "Header" rows, "Subtotal" rows, rows connecting Invoices to Prepayments, and rows in Credit Notes connecting them to Invoices.

When you design the Form Templates that will be used to print these records, you can specify that the rows of various types will be printed with different Styles and Line Heights. For example, you may want "Subtotal" rows to be printed in a larger font and with a larger line spacing.

To set the Styles and Line Heights for the different row types, select the 'Row Styles' function from the Operations menu. If you use this feature, you should still set Line Heights and Styles in the fields themselves.

In the first column, use 'Paste Special' to choose a Style for a particular row type, and in the second column specify a Line Height.

You don't need to specify a Style and Line Height for every row type: leave both fields empty to use the Styles and Line Heights that are specified in the fields.

If you only want to change the Line Height for a particular row type, do not leave the Style empty. Instead, specify the same Style that is in the fields. Leaving the Style empty will mean that the changed Line Height won't be used.

Usually a "normal" row will be printed using the Item Line Style and Line Height. If a row does not have an Item Number or a Sum, it will be printed using the Description Line Style and Line Height.

Row Styles are only used when printing Opportunities, Project Budgets, Quotations, Sales Orders, Sales Invoices and Stock Movement Invoices. Entering Row Styles in the Form Templates that will be used to print other records and documents will have no effect.

Press the [OK] button to assign the changes to the Form Template. Note that the changes won't be saved permanently until you save the Form Template itself.
