Table.IndentFromLeft not working? about docx

[XceedBoucherS]

Hi,
Under Microsoft 365, the resulting docx opens and the Table is correctly indented:

Are you using a decimal values for the indentation ?
Can you try with Word from Microsoft 365?
Are you creating a new file or opening an existing one ?

Thank you

Thanks for having a look. I am using an integer double value (as indicated in the documentation) and creating a new file. I have tried the code exactly as you suggest and it doesn't work in Word 2007. In 365 on-line, the file opens but the table is not indented - I don't think the on-line version supports this property, so no surprise there! Unfortunately I don't have a local version of 365 available. Not to worry if there is no easy fix for this one - it's a very minor problem.

Hi,

Ok, I know why.
Word 2007 needs to know the type of the Indentation value in order to load the document. In 365, this is not required.
I can make the fix for this property. If you find any other property with this issue, just poke us :-)

It will be fixed in the next service release.
In the meantime, if you have access to source code,
go in file: Xceed.document.NET/Src/Table.cs
In property setter: IndentFromLeft
and add this line at the end of the setter:
tblInd.Add( new XAttribute( XName.Get( "type", Document.w.NamespaceName ), "dxa" ) );

Thank you

That does indeed fix the problem. Thanks very much for your support.
