People, I've got a compound pdf ( made in de GUI ) with 16 page-layouts. A lot of 'references' to fex-files ( in code they're -INCLUDES ). And some dummy in between title pages. Basically a chapter contains a title page and one or more included fex's. Guess what... Customer wants to re-order the chapters. E.g. What now is chapter 8 should be chapter 3. Can this be done in the GUI? Drag & Drop? Should I spend more time RTFM  ?( I did manage it in code, but that not what the GUI is build for... )This message has been edited.

Well, there you have it - the GUI is not built for that kind of changes ...  Alle gekheid op een stokje, I don't think the GUI can easliy deal with these kind of changes, you're probably better off (and quicker) doing it manually. GamP

mmm, shouldn't be to hard to implement in the GUI. I could write a vb-script that does the trick... Nice feature request I guess. _____________________ WF: 8.0.0.9 > going 8.2.0.5 | |||

Dave, When you create your compound PDF add the individual reports via "Reference Existing Procedure" via the GUI and the reports will then be INCLUDED. Because the reports exist individually as separate fexes this should make something like this easy to achieve. T

Tony, Yes, I know. Life is easier that way. I have those -INCLUDES as mentioned in my original post. Would be very nice to be able to re-order pages... by drag&dropping the thumbnails for example. _____________________ WF: 8.0.0.9 > going 8.2.0.5 | |||

Well, what do you know? From WebFOCUS New Feature Highlights Version 7 Release 7 Moving Pages With the Thumbnails Tab in the Document Composer. You may select pages to be reordered directly from the Thumbnails tab of the Document Composer. The Thumbnails tab is available from the Properties window of the Document Composer. Moving pages on the Thumbnails tab applies only to page layouts. _____________________ WF: 8.0.0.9 > going 8.2.0.5 | |||
