getTableSize

• getTableSize(aTableOrElementInTable: Element, aRowCount: number, aColCount: number): void

• getTableSize() computes number of rows and columns. Note that this depends on layout information. Therefore, all pending layout should've been flushed before calling this.

  Parameters

  • aTableOrElementInTable: Element

    If a

    element, this computes number of rows and columns of it. If another element and in a , this computes number of rows and columns of the nearest ancestor element. If element is not in element, throwing an exception. If null, this looks for nearest ancestor

    element containing anchor of Selection. If found, computes the number of rows and columns of the . Otherwise, throwing an exception.

    aRowCount: number

    Number of actual row count. I.e., rowspan does NOT increase this value.

    aColCount: number

    Returns void

    insertTableCell

    • insertTableCell(aNumberOfColumnsToInsert: number, aInsertAfterSelectedCell: boolean): void

    • insertTableCell() inserts

    elements before or after a

    elements before or after a cell element containing first selection range. I.e., if the cell spans columns and aInsertPosition is true, new columns will be inserted after the right-most column which contains the cell. Note that this simply inserts

    elements, i.e., colspan and rowspan around the cell containing selection are not modified. So, for example, adding a cell to rectangular table changes non-rectangular table. And if a cell containing selection is at left of row-spanning cell, it may be moved to right side of the row-spanning cell after inserting some cell elements before it. Similarly, colspan won't be adjusted for keeping table rectangle. If first selection range is not in table cell element, this does nothing without exception. Parameters aNumberOfColumnsToInsert: number aInsertAfterSelectedCell: boolean true if new cells should be inserted before current cell. Otherwise, will be inserted after the cell. Returns void insertTableColumn insertTableColumn(aNumberOfColumnsToInsert: number, aInsertAfterSelectedCell: boolean): void insertTableColumn() inserts columns before or after a cell element containing first selection range. I.e., if the cell spans columns and aInsertAfterSelectedCell is tre, new columns will be inserted after the right-most column which contains the cell. If first selection range is not in table cell element, this does nothing without exception. Parameters aNumberOfColumnsToInsert: number Number of columns to insert. aInsertAfterSelectedCell: boolean true if new columns will be inserted before current cell. Otherwise, will be inserted after the cell. Returns void insertTableRow insertTableRow(aNumberOfRowsToInsert: number, aInsertAfterSelectedCell: boolean): void insertTableRow() inserts

    element containing first selection range. I.e., if the cell spans rows and aInsertAfterSelectedCell is true, new rows will be inserted after the bottom-most row which contains the cell. If first selection range is not in table cell element, this does nothing without exception. Parameters aNumberOfRowsToInsert: number Number of rows to insert. aInsertAfterSelectedCell: boolean true if new rows will be inserted before current cell. Otherwise, will be inserted after the cell. Returns void joinTableCells joinTableCells(aMergeNonContiguousContents: boolean): void Merges contents of all selected cells for selected cells that are adjacent, this will result in a larger cell with appropriate rowspan and colspan, and original cells are deleted The resulting cell is in the location of the cell at the upper-left corner of the adjacent block of selected cells Parameters aMergeNonContiguousContents: boolean Returns void normalizeTable normalizeTable(aTable: Element): void Scan through all rows and add cells as needed so all locations in the cellmap are occupied. Used after inserting single cells or pasting a collection of cells that extend past the previous size of the table If aTable is null, it uses table enclosing the selection anchor This doesn't doesn't change the selection, thus it can be used to fixup all tables in a page independent of the selection Parameters aTable: Element Returns void selectAllTableCells selectAllTableCells(): void Returns void selectTable selectTable(): void Returns void selectTableCell selectTableCell(): void Table Selection methods Selecting a row or column actually selects all cells (not TR in the case of rows) Returns void selectTableColumn selectTableColumn(): void Returns void selectTableRow selectTableRow(): void Returns void splitTableCell splitTableCell(): void Split a cell that has rowspan and/or colspan > 0 into cells such that all new cells have rowspan = 1 and colspan = 1 All of the contents are not touched -- they will appear to be in the upper-left cell Returns void switchTableCellHeaderType switchTableCellHeaderType(aSourceCell: Element): Element Create a new TD or TH element, the opposite type of the supplied aSourceCell Copy all attributes from aSourceCell to the new cell Move all contents of aSourceCell to the new cell Replace aSourceCell in the table with the new cell Returns The new cell that replaces aSourceCell Parameters aSourceCell: Element The cell to be replaced Returns Element Settings Member Visibility Protected Private Inherited External Theme OSLightDark Generated using TypeDoc
