Class LayoutOptions

java.lang.Object
    extended by com.aspose.words.LayoutOptions
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.lang.Cloneable

public class LayoutOptions 
extends java.lang.Object

Holds the options that allow controlling the document layout process.

You do not create instances of this class directly. Use the Document.LayoutOptions property to access layout options for this document.

Note that after changing any of the options present in this class, Document.updatePageLayout() method should be called in order for the changed options to be applied to the layout.

Example:

Shows how to hide text in a rendered output document.
Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
// Insert hidden text, then specify whether we wish to omit it from a rendered document.
builder.writeln("This text is not hidden.");
builder.getFont().setHidden(true);
builder.writeln("This text is hidden.");

doc.getLayoutOptions().setShowHiddenText(showHiddenText);

doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.LayoutOptionsHiddenText.pdf");

Example:

Shows how to show paragraph marks in a rendered output document.
Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
// Add some paragraphs, then enable paragraph marks to show the ends of paragraphs
// with a pilcrow (¶) symbol when we render the document.
builder.writeln("Hello world!");
builder.writeln("Hello again!");

doc.getLayoutOptions().setShowParagraphMarks(showParagraphMarks);

doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.LayoutOptionsParagraphMarks.pdf");

Example:

Shows how to alter the appearance of revisions in a rendered output document.
Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// Insert a revision, then change the color of all revisions to green.
builder.writeln("This is not a revision.");
doc.startTrackRevisions("John Doe", new Date());
builder.writeln("This is a revision.");
doc.stopTrackRevisions();
builder.writeln("This is not a revision.");

// Remove the bar that appears to the left of every revised line.
doc.getLayoutOptions().getRevisionOptions().setInsertedTextColor(RevisionColor.BRIGHT_GREEN);
doc.getLayoutOptions().getRevisionOptions().setShowRevisionBars(false);

doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.LayoutOptionsRevisions.pdf");

LayoutOptions

public LayoutOptions()

Property Getters/Setters Detail

getCallback/setCallback

public IPageLayoutCallback getCallback() / public void setCallback(IPageLayoutCallback value)
Gets or sets IPageLayoutCallback implementation used by page layout model.

getCommentDisplayMode/setCommentDisplayMode

public int getCommentDisplayMode() / public void setCommentDisplayMode(int value)
Gets or sets the way comments are rendered. Default value is CommentDisplayMode.SHOW_IN_BALLOONS. The value of the property is CommentDisplayMode integer constant. Note that revisions are not rendered in balloons for CommentDisplayMode.SHOW_IN_ANNOTATIONS.

Example:

Shows how to show comments when saving a document to a rendered format.
Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

builder.write("Hello world!");

Comment comment = new Comment(doc, "John Doe", "J.D.", new Date());
comment.setText("My comment.");
builder.getCurrentParagraph().appendChild(comment);

// ShowInAnnotations is only available in Pdf1.7 and Pdf1.5 formats.
// In other formats, it will work similarly to Hide.
doc.getLayoutOptions().setCommentDisplayMode(CommentDisplayMode.SHOW_IN_ANNOTATIONS);

doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.ShowCommentsInAnnotations.pdf");

// Note that it's required to rebuild the document page layout (via Document.UpdatePageLayout() method)
// after changing the Document.LayoutOptions values.
doc.getLayoutOptions().setCommentDisplayMode(CommentDisplayMode.SHOW_IN_BALLOONS);
doc.updatePageLayout();

doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.ShowCommentsInBalloons.pdf");

getContinuousSectionPageNumberingRestart/setContinuousSectionPageNumberingRestart

public int getContinuousSectionPageNumberingRestart() / public void setContinuousSectionPageNumberingRestart(int value)
Gets or sets the mode of behavior for computing page numbers when a continuous section restarts the page numbering. The value of the property is ContinuousSectionRestart integer constant. The default value is ContinuousSectionRestart.ALWAYS. It matches the behavior of MS Word 2019 which was the latest version at the moment the option was introduced. Older page numbering logic demonstrated by MS Word 2016 is available via this option. Please ContinuousSectionRestart for the behavior description.

Example:

Shows how to control page numbering in a continuous section.
Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Continuous section page numbering.docx");

// By default Aspose.Words behavior matches the Microsoft Word 2019.
// If you need old Aspose.Words behavior, repetitive Microsoft Word 2016, use 'ContinuousSectionRestart.FromNewPageOnly'.
// Page numbering restarts only if there is no other content before the section on the page where the section starts,
// because of that the numbering will reset to 2 from the second page.
doc.getLayoutOptions().setContinuousSectionPageNumberingRestart(ContinuousSectionRestart.FROM_NEW_PAGE_ONLY);
doc.updatePageLayout();

doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Layout.RestartPageNumberingInContinuousSection.pdf");

getIgnorePrinterMetrics/setIgnorePrinterMetrics

public boolean getIgnorePrinterMetrics() / public void setIgnorePrinterMetrics(boolean value)
Gets or sets indication of whether the "Use printer metrics to lay out document" compatibility option is ignored. Default is True.

Example:

Shows how to ignore 'Use printer metrics to lay out document' option.
Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Rendering.docx");

doc.getLayoutOptions().setIgnorePrinterMetrics(false);

doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.IgnorePrinterMetrics.docx");

getRevisionOptions

public RevisionOptions getRevisionOptions()
Gets revision options.

Example:

Shows how to alter the appearance of revisions in a rendered output document.
Document doc = new Document();

doc.startTrackRevisions("John Doe", new Date());
builder.writeln("This is a revision.");
doc.stopTrackRevisions();
builder.writeln("This is not a revision.");

// Remove the bar that appears to the left of every revised line.
doc.getLayoutOptions().getRevisionOptions().setInsertedTextColor(RevisionColor.BRIGHT_GREEN);
doc.getLayoutOptions().getRevisionOptions().setShowRevisionBars(false);

doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.LayoutOptionsRevisions.pdf");

getShowHiddenText/setShowHiddenText

public boolean getShowHiddenText() / public void setShowHiddenText(boolean value)
Gets or sets indication of whether hidden text in the document is rendered. Default is False. This property affects all hidden content, not just text.

Example:

Shows how to hide text in a rendered output document.
Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
// Insert hidden text, then specify whether we wish to omit it from a rendered document.
builder.writeln("This text is not hidden.");
builder.getFont().setHidden(true);
builder.writeln("This text is hidden.");

doc.getLayoutOptions().setShowHiddenText(showHiddenText);

builder.writeln("Hello world!");
builder.writeln("Hello again!");

doc.getLayoutOptions().setShowParagraphMarks(showParagraphMarks);

doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.LayoutOptionsParagraphMarks.pdf");

getTextShaperFactory/setTextShaperFactory

public ITextShaperFactory getTextShaperFactory() / public void setTextShaperFactory(ITextShaperFactory value)
Gets or sets ITextShaperFactory implementation used for Advanced Typography rendering features.

Example:

Shows how to support OpenType features using the HarfBuzz text shaping engine.
Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "OpenType text shaping.docx");

// Aspose.Words can use externally provided text shaper objects,
// which represent fonts and compute shaping information for text.
// A text shaper factory is necessary for documents that use multiple fonts.
// When the text shaper factory set, the layout uses OpenType features.
// An Instance property returns a static BasicTextShaperCache object wrapping HarfBuzzTextShaperFactory.
doc.getLayoutOptions().setTextShaperFactory(HarfBuzzTextShaperFactory.getInstance());

// Currently, text shaping is performing when exporting to PDF or XPS formats.
doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Document.OpenType.pdf");
