The Table component is responsible for recognizing tables. It can
be used instead of the Table
(visual) component if you must indicate specific column numbers to
use for column breaks in order to achieve the result you want.
Care should be taken when using the Table component in a default
rendering set because the Table component will recognize almost every
screen in the selected region, and no rendering items lower in the
list will be recognized.
A recognized table can be rendered by the following widgets:
The following figure shows how a table component might appear on
your host screen:

Title rows
Column breaks
The following settings can be configured for this component:
Column breaks:
A comma-separated list of column numbers where column
breaks are wanted. For example, specifying 1,7,22 would
indicate that new columns should begin in columns 1, 7 and 22. When
the Restore Defaults button is clicked,
the Column breaks field is filled with
values based on the Visual table default
recognition values.
Note:
Column breaks can also be added or removed by using the mouse
to select a column in the host screen view, right-clicking,
and selecting either Add column or Remove column. Left-clicking on
a column can also add or remove a column break. Column breaks are
indicated by a dotted vertical line on the host screen view.
Column breaks cannot split an input field.
For information about using this setting with DBCS
support see Table.
Include empty rows
If selected, empty rows (rows without any visible text or input
fields) will be included in the rendered table or graph.
Table rows to exclude
The comma-separated or ranged set of rows to exclude from the
recognized table. This setting is useful for hiding specific rows
of data on a table or graph. The rows represented by this value are
based on the recognized table, not on the actual host screen. Example
values: 1,2,3...., 1,2-4, 3-5.
Table columns to exclude
The comma-separated or ranged set of logical columns to exclude
from the recognized table. The columns represented by this value are
based on the recognized table, not on the actual host screen. Example
values: 1,2,3...., 1,2-4, 3-5.
Number of title rows
Specifies the number of rows, starting at the top of the region,
that should be rendered as the header. If the value is greater than
1, for each column, the header lines will be rendered as a string
in a single row.
