Exaprom PDF Cell format issue
Solved!
Hi Everyone, I'm currently using Exaprom to generate a PDF report for some testing equipment. The report should be formated in a particular way (I've attached an image of the format to this message). The table has one thick line which seperates the Data from the channel names and units. I've racked my brain trying to find a way to produce the thick line and still maintain the other thin lines bording the cells but I havent come up with a solution. My initial thought was to merge the cell containing the units with another cell containing the thick line but that produced an error in my VI and didnt export the PDF at all. If anyone has come up with a solution for this (if it's at all possible), then I could really use the help!

I think you can do it using the Custom Borders input of Append Table.vi. (You need to create the table first using Create Table.vi then pass the pdf table output to the pdf table input of Append Table.vi)

Actually my suggestion doesn't work 😞
Plan B: Insert an empty column where you want the thick line separator and set the column width to the same value as the line thickness. Doesn't even need to use custom border! The resulting line width will be twice the others ones.

Oh man, and I gave you a kudo because that is what I was going to suggest.

Still earned my kudo I guess.
