Creating a Footnote

To create a footnote component:

  1. In the Design Structure Window of the desired file, expand the pageLayout node to locate the pageLayout named child node footnote.

    If the pageLayout node is not visible, expand page | content | dataScope | document | body | form. The footnote node is under pageLayout Named Children in pageLayout.

  2. Right-click the footnote node and choose Insert inside footnote | formattedText.

    The formattedText node is inserted under the expanded footnote node. The Property Inspector displays the properties of the formattedText component.

  3. In the Property Inspector, set the following attribute for the formattedText component:
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to add additional formattedText components, if desired.

    The flowLayout component is automatically inserted for you if you insert more than one formattedText component.

Tip: Use the separator named child of flowLayout to insert spacing between the indexed children.

Note: To use data binding, see Data Binding a Component Attribute.
