Header cell with same length as underlying cells in OpenTBS

Question

I want to have length of header cell (composed of merged cells) equal to amount of underlying generated cells

[                               header value                         ]
[cell value 1][cell value 2][cell value 3][cell value 4][cell value 5]

I use plugin OpenTBS for TinyButStrong Template Engine. So I added to ods template:

[headerCell]
[select11.[select10.c1;block=tbs:cell];block=tbs:row]

which produces content

[header value][            ][            ][            ][            ]
[cell value 1][cell value 2][cell value 3][cell value 4][cell value 5]

How to specify this behaviour to header cell.

Answer 1

For LibreOffice, the horizontal cell merging is define with the XML attribute table:number-columns-spanned. See XML Synopsis

This attribute can be modified with TBS using the parameter att.

Example :

Template:

|headerCell[my_field]|

PHP:

$nb_cell = ...; // retrieve the number of cell to merge horizontaly
$TBS->MergeField('my_field', $nb_cell, false, array(
  'att'=>'table:table-cell#table:number-columns-spanned'
 ));
