docFormatMulticolumn (Type of variable)

In french: docFormatMulticolonne

The docFormatMulticolumn type is used to define all the advanced characteristics of a multicolumn section defined in a docSection variable.

The characteristics of the docFormatMulticolumn variable can be defined and modified by several WLanguage properties.

CAUTION: This type cannot be used directly. It must be used via the docSection type.

Example

// Retrieve the Word Processing control
MyDoc is Document <- WP_NoName1

// Defines a 3-column layout for the docx
// a spacing of 20 between each column and a visible separator
MyDoc..Section..Multicolumn..NumberColumn = 3
MyDoc..Section..Multicolumn..SpaceIdenticalMode = 20
MyDoc..Section..Multicolumn..Separator = True
