    In my input record with a table I can activate the calculations in the last line (sum, max, min, etc…).Sometimes the column is too small to show everything. I would be satisfied with the presentation of the results, i.e. how can i hide sum: min: max:, etc? (see screen 01 input)
    if I now want to print this data record, NO result line appears at all! Here, of course, I would also like to have it displayed! (see screen 02 print).

    Hi Wolfgang,

    Hmm… It’s supposed to show as long as you have the calculation row displaying on the Table field. However, I see that it’s not doing that on the Default Layout.

    It does however work when you have a custom layout. So try building a custom layout and make the field tall enough to show all the rows in the Table field. It should show the totals then. I’ll look into fixing this issue for the Default Layout.

    Thanks,

    Brendan

    screen 01 is the default layout, screen 02 is the print view (here the calculation infos are missing).

    Yes, I understand about your screenshots.

    But try creating a custom layout and drag your Table field onto it along with some of the other fields and Tap Forms should print the totals at the bottom of your Table field.

    Thanks,

    Thank you Brendan, this works.
    I notice 2 different representations when printing: with the default layout the table adapts depending on the entries. In the custom layout, the table size with the entries is fixed … so I would prefer default layout for this purpose.As you said “I’ll look into fixing this issue for the Default Layout.” and the print view.
    Many thanks in advance… :-)

    Yes, that’s right, custom layouts are fixed format whereas the Default Layout does adapt. It’s because the Default Layout is algorithmically generated so the row heights can adapt to the content. I think the problem is the Table view height isn’t taking into consideration the calculation summary row for the Table fields.

    And I have fixed the bug. See my example printout attached.
