Demonstration IssueBuilder, Part Four: Side-by-Side Document Pages

How to display two pages in a side-by-side view

This set will require several changes to the default layout properties.

First, let’s get the images added to our IB. 

(I am using page three of the DocID:1 (Employee Handbook) and page one of the DocID:21 (Employment Agreement).  I also annotated both pages by drawing a yellow rectangle around the “Medical Benefits” paragraphs.  (I used the Image/Image view to see both images at the same time, but that is not necessary.)  See bottom of this write-up for my screen.)

1. Display DocID:1, page three and use the drag-drop icon to add it to the IB.
2. Then display DocID:21, page one and use the drag-drop icon to add that to the IB.

Your IB should look something like this:

Second, we need to set the IB item Properties for these two items.

1. Open the properties for the first image and make these changes:
1. Right-click in the display area and choose “Left 1/2”.
2. In the Run Next Item area; choose the “Immediately run next item” option.
2. Open the properties for the second image and make these changes:
1. In the Previous Item Clear area; choose “Clear none”.
2. Right-click in the display area and choose “Right 1/2”.
3. In the Run Next Item area; choose the “Do not run next item” option.

Test this portion of your IssueBuilder

Enable CourtViewer mode. 

Select the first image, then right-click and choose “Run”.

I have exported the IB as it exists at this point in the process.  It is available as Demonstration IssueBuilder, Part Four - Side-by-Side Document Pages.  This can be downloaded and imported into your case and will not overwrite your existing IB.

Please post any questions here as comments; remember, if you have a question so does someone else.  I will try to answer them as quickly as possible.
