Attributes pane
The Attributes pane displays all of the properties of the currently
selected object in the Workspace. These properties vary greatly depending
on the object that has been selected.
General
These attributes are common to all elements in the template and will
always appear.
- ID: A unique identifier
for the selected element. Used for CSS selections as well as JavaScript
expressions affecting single elements.
- Class: One or more classes
that can be common to more than one elements. Used for CSS selections
and JavaScript expressions that can affect multiple elements.
Other
These attributes are available depending on the item selected (in parenthesis).
- Whitespace element : Check
to make the element a whitespace element, meaning it will only appear
on the page if there is enough space for it. This is useful for templates
with variable height elements or conditional elements, to fill empty
spaces with transpromotional material. Note that only top-level elements
(a paragraph not inside a table or a div) will function at whitespace
elements.
- Source (image): The location
of the image file. For image resources in the template, the image
path is often
images/<imagefile>.<extension>
When the source is a PDF, an
addition button appears next to this box that opens the Select Image dialog.
- Alternate text (image):
The "Alt" text used when hovering over the image in a browser.
Also used for accessibility.
- Cell Spacing (table only):
Defines the cellspacing attribute
of the table which controls the spacing between cells in the table.
- Cell Padding (table only):
Defines the cellpadding attribute
of the table which controls the padding inside each cell of the table.
- Column Resizing (table only):
Check to enable columns to be resized directly within the Workspace.
- Detail Table (table only):
Defines which detail table the repeat of the table is based on. The
number of detail lines in the table is the number of the time the
repeating row (see below) is repeated.
- Title (table only): Defines
the title of the table. This has no impact on the table's displays,
only on accessibility of HTML pages and screen readers.
- Repeat (table row not in <tfoot>
or <thead> only): Defines if the row is affected by the
detail table calculation. This row is the one repeated in a Dynamic
Table.
- Show Row (table row only):
Use the drop-down to determine when the selected row appears when
a dynamic table overflows. This option is only available in a row
manually added inside of a Dynamic Table.
- Before page break:
The row will appear on all pages except the last one.
- At end of table: The
row will appear only on the last page.
- Always: The row will
appear on every page of the table.
- Subtotal Line (table row inside
a <tfoot> only): Defines the footer row as the place
where the SubTotal is displayed. This is the row where a subtotal
script is expected to display the result.
- Type (form input element): Use the drop-down to select an input type. The drop-down lists all input types, including HTML5 input types (see http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_form_input_types.asp).
Geometry
These attributes are available for certain elements that have position
or size attributes such as images and boxes.
- X-Offset: The horizontal
distance from the top-left of the object to the left position of its
parent. This is used only for relative and absolute positioned elements.
- Y-Offset: The vertical
distance from the top-left of the object to the top position of its
parent.
- Width: The width of the
element, by default in pixels. For an image, this defaults to the original image width in pixels.
- Height: The height of the
element, by default in pixels. For an image, this defaults to the original image height in pixels.
When no unit is added to a geometry value, the default unit will be added to the value; see Print Preferences. Page
These attributes appear when selecting the Page
node in the Outline Pane.
