Columns With Advance Codes Understanding Line |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: In columns, WordPerfect remembers the Line Position from column to column based on the Line Position the cursor is located on when columns are turned on in Column One. WordPerfect remembers the Line Position so that when the user moves from the top of Column One to the top of Column Two the Line Position is the same. The program works this way to keep the text lines aligned vertically from column to column. For Example: [COLUMN DEF][COL ON][ADVTODN: .03] The codes above in WordPerfect show the cursor on the Line Position 3.44. If the customer types the text in Column One and then presses Ctrl-Enter to move to Column Two, WordPerfect automatically sets the line position in Column Two to 3.44, following the hard page [HPg] code. Then, if the customer follows the formatting and places another [Advdn: 0.3] code before typing the text in Column Two, the program forces the line down so that the status Line Position now shows 3.47 in Column Two. Not knowing WordPerfect already remembered where Column One's Line Position started when columns were turned on and not understanding that WordPerfect already set the Line Position to 3.44 in Column Two, the customer sees that the Line Position changes if the user press Ctrl-Home, Right arrow to move from Column One to Column Two. |
