'Usage
 
Dim instance As Table
Dim widths() As Single
Dim fixWidths As Boolean
 
instance.SetWidths(widths, fixWidths)

public void SetWidths( 
   float[] widths,
   bool fixWidths
)

Parameters

widths

The array of widths to set (one entry per column, in points).

fixWidths

true to fix the columns width. When false, adding new columns may reduce all column's width to fit on page.

This method expects values expressed in points (pt).

• To convert to 20th of a point (dxa) : pt*20
• To convert to Inches (in) : pt*72
• To convert to Centimeters (cm) : in*2.54

When the Table.AutoFit property is set to "Fixed", the columns' widths from the array parameter will be applied as is.

When the Table.AutoFit property is not set to "Fixed", the columns' widths from the array parameter will be applied as is, except if the total width received exceeds the page's available space. In this situation, a ratio is calculated to adjust the columns' widths from the array parameter to fit on the page.

The following examples assume that the page size is 450 pts.

1) table.SetWidths( new float[] { 100f, 100, 200f } );
The resulting columns' sizes will be 100, 100 and 200, because the total width of the array (400) is smaller than the page size (450).

2) table.SetWidths( new float[] { 200f, 100, 300f } );
The resulting columns' sizes will be 150 (200/600*450), 75 (100/600*450) and 225 (300/600*450), because the total width of the array (600) is greater than the page size (450).
