Ricoh WebPrint Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Is there an easy way to get multiple FPRepeatableComponent templates to tile horizontally instead of vertically? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Korn Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Not currently, no. But there are other ways to lay things out that might be able to give you the results you want, such as using multiple columns or frames side-by-side. Can you post a picture of what you're trying to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricoh WebPrint Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 OK. Thanks for confirming I wasn't missing something obvious. I'm trying to output a variable number of image thumbnails as a grid, working from left to right and then down. A set of templates tiling horizontally, wrapping when the frame filled up would have been really easy, but it looks like I'll be using a <table> approach instead. Thanks for the quick feeback!

If they're just images, then you don't need repeatable components; you can just use inline graphics, which are actually easier. Those set horizontally along the text baseline (as their name "inline" suggests). You can control the width and height of the inline graphics with attributes of the <graphic> tag. Please refer to the section "Graphic Tag Inside Story Tag" in the FusionPro Tags Reference Guide.

You can just use tabs (<t> tags) to set horizontal spacing instead of a table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
