I am trying to define a class Tab which would be used as a special Character and would be placed in an LRComposition with other Character instances (see src/examples/preview/main.c) Tab stops would be defined at specific horizontal locations. The problem is the width of a Tab instance is dependent on its Horizontal position in the LRComposition. For instance if a Tab is placed at 2 inch and the Tab instances location is 1.5 inch, the Tab's width would be (2 inch - 1.5 inch) = .5 inch. When the LRCompositor requests the Tab's width, via ::request, the horizontal location is unknown. Any feedback on how Tab could be implemented would be appreciated. -- ================================ | Hughes STX Corporation | | EROS Data Center | | Sioux Falls, SD 57198 | | | | att: 605-594-6862 | | fax: 605-594-6589 | | hemmer@sg2.cr.usgs.gov | ================================
