Hi All,

Can anyone help me in displaying data with images in 4X4 matrix per page in pdf.

For example: Below cell is (1X1)cell of 4x4 matrix, Output should be like below for each cell of matrix:

Image1
ImageId:21
Imagename:xx
ImageSize=10px

Please help me out to get the solution for above.Its urgent? Thanks in advance for all the suggestions and responses.

Output format?

If it is PDF output, then you can use PAGEMATRIX option to layout in 4x4 grid.

You can also search for keyword PAGEMATRIX in this forum.

Thanks,
Ram

Hi Ram,

Thanks for your response!!..

I need to know, will this PAGEMATRIX work for 30000 records as well.

because while i m running my code it shows an error message as "style reports is limited to 128 columns.

 

SET ONLINE-FMT = PDF
 
ENGINE SQLMSS SET DEFAULT_CONNECTION CON01
SQL SQLMSS PREPARE SQLOUT FOR
SELECT 'IMAGENAME: '+NORTHWND.DBO.TBLIMAGE.IMNAME AS IMAGENAME,'IMAGE_ID: '+CONVERT(VARCHAR(50),NORTHWND.DBO.TBLIMAGE.IMAGEID) AS IMAGEID FROM NORTHWND.DBO.TBLIMAGE
END
;
DEFINE FILE SQLOUT
AA/A500V='<IMG SRC="HTTP://LOCALHOST:8080/APPROOT/SHWETA/'||LOCASE(100,SQLOUT.SQLOUT.IMAGENAME,IMAGENAME)||'.JPEG" WIDTH=80PX HEIGHT=30PX/>';
END
TABLE FILE SQLOUT
BY IMAGENAME 
BY IMAGEID 
ON IMAGENAME PAGE-BREAK
HEADING
"<AA"
"<IMAGENAME"
"<IMAGEID"
-*ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOPAGE
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
UNITS=IN,ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE,
PAGEMATRIX=(4 4), PAGESIZE=A1, LEFTMARGIN=1.256, TOPMARGIN=2.5,
 ELEMENT=(2.3 1), GUTTER=(0.188 0), $
ENDSTYLE
END

Thanking you in advance.

Shweta Sharma

What's the exact output message?

IIRC, the HTML IMG tag is not honored for PDF output; you need to use STYLE code, with IMAGE=(column). So I suspect it is trying to render your AA/A500 field literally, and the target area is too narrow for that.

Did you verify that this works when limited to one incoming record?
Does it work when targeted to the whole sheet (by omitting pagematrix, element and gutter from the style)?

Read your own code. It's doing exactly what you asked: all your data columns have NOPRINT, so the only item to be rendered is the image.

Thank you Ram Prasad and j.gross.

Yeah that is done.

Pagesize was the problem that's hiding my last row now have changed the pagesize to bigger one.It is working fine.

Thanks for your suggestions..
