Hello everyone,
I'm having an xtable spanning several pages and need to have its headers
repeated.
For this I've set "split=repeat", but unfortunately this causes the
table to start with a new new page leaving the rest of the preceding
page empty. Having "split=yes" makes the tabe continue on the previous
page as a need it to, but then the header isn't repeated any longer.
I realize that there has been a very similar question already in
https://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg93775.html, but my
problem happens isolated in a very clean situation w/o any header,
floats or the like - and I don't see yet how I can get this working in
my situation. Any help is highly appreciated, here is a MWE of my problem:
Always tricky this (on my agenda is to look into the engines page
builder ...)
You can put this on cont-new.mkxl as test:
\unprotect
\defcsname\??xtableflushsplit\v!repeat\endcsname
{\doloop
{\clf_x_table_flush
method {\v!split}%
height
\ifdim\pagegoal=\maxdimen\textheight\else\dimexpr\pagegoal-\pagetotal\relax\fi
\relax
\ifcase\c_tabl_x_state
\exitloop
\else
\page
\fi}}
\protect
Please test a lot! I also needs Wolfgangs opinion on this. Maybe
preceding whitespace can interfere so maybe we need some 'slack' parameter.
