Requested: 2 column horizontal report

[koenboots]

Hi,

I want to make indexpages for my dvdcase, wich contains double sleeves.

Template "3 columns" is great for this, but I'd like the report to list like so:
1 2
3 4
5 6
7 8

I've tried a couple of things, but the only result I get is
1 5
2 6
3 7
4 8

Can someone help me by explaining to me how to do this?
Many thanks.[/b]

I am not sure that it is possible...
But you could turn the text by 90° maybe, to have it like in landscape mode

To bad that's not possible.

I'm affraid your possible solution doesn't work for me either.
Can you perhaps try that out for me, because I'm not sure if I did it the way you ment.

Current one:



If you shape the text boxes differently and select 90 (or 180?) for text orientation, the contents will be displayed like this :

@antp: Thanks again for this information.

that would only be usable for me if an output could be generated like this:
7 5 3 1 <--|
8 6 4 2 <--|

But for this you'd have to create a horizontal listing, wich doesn't seem to be possible.
Is that right?

I do not really see what is the problem actually Didn't you want to keep 1-2, 3-4, etc. side by side? With my solution it should give the same result as what you shown in first post, if you cut them by group of 2.
