Question: How to have table render over watermark image? #38

Closed djzort closed 6 years ago

djzort commented 6 years ago

Hi there, I am trying to render a table that goes over the top of a watermark image. however PDF::Table is smart and skips to the next page.

Is there a way to make pdf::table render over other objects? I cant read anything in the documetnation.

Thanks

Hi,

How do you place the watermark image? In theory if you set explicitly the starting coordinates of the table pdf::table should place it on top of whatever is already there.

its just a misunderstanding of start_h parameter. sorry to waste your time

PhilterPaper commented 3 years ago

Just a reminder that start_h (now h) and next_h are the maximum height of the table on a page, not the required height. Likewise, start_y (now y) and next_y are the starting position (upper left) of the table on a page, regardless of anything that's already been put down on that page.
