NAME
PostScript::Report::FieldTL - A field with a label in the top left corner
VERSION
This document describes version 0.10 of PostScript::Report::FieldTL, released November 30, 2013 as part of PostScript-Report version 0.13.
DESCRIPTION
This Component is a text field with a label in the upper left corner.
Note that FieldTL does not have or use the padding_bottom attribute. Instead, the label text is placed at the top of the field, and the value text right below that.
ATTRIBUTES
A FieldTL has all the normal component attributes, including padding_side, and value, plus the following:
label
This string is the label to print in the corner.
label_font
This is the font used to draw the label. It defaults to Helvetica 6. The value may be inherited.
multiline
If true, the value will be wrapped onto multiple lines based on the width of the component. If the value is too long, it will be cropped at the bottom. If a word is too long for a single line, it will be cropped.
If false, (the default) then the value will be printed on a single line (and cropped if it is too long).
INCOMPATIBILITIES
None reported.
BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
No bugs have been reported.
