Overview

This example shows how to create a classification report with different table layouts on multiple pages. Specifically, you'll learn how to display tables with different column widths on the first page versus subsequent pages.

Step-by-Step Solution

The solution uses two separate tables to handle different layouts: one for the first page and another for subsequent pages. Here's how to create this template in Carbone:

1. Create the First Page Table

• Determine how many items you want to show on the first page (e.g., 3 entries)
• Use a filter to select only these first items:
  • Formula syntax: {d[i,i<3].manufacturer}
  • This selects the first 3 manufacturers from your data
• Add row iteration using: {d[i+1,i<3]}
  • This generates a new row for each selected item

2. Create the Subsequent Pages Table

• Set up the table to display remaining items:
  • Use the filter: {d[i,i>2].manufacturer}
  • This selects all manufacturers after the third one
• Add row iteration using: {d[i+1,i>2]}
  • This generates rows for all remaining items

Technical Details

• Uses filtering to control data display
• Implements array iteration for dynamic row generation
• Supports different table layouts while maintaining data consistency
