Rows Per Section

Specifies how many rows for each table section. If the table break falls between rows within one terminal definition, the entire terminal definition is placed in the next table section. This results in a table section with fewer rows than defined.

Note: If the terminal definition is the first one in the section and exceeds the number of rows per section, the entire terminal definition is kept together in one section.

Sections Per Drawing

Specifies how many table sections to insert on each drawing. All sections are placed on new drawings unless the option “Insert All Sections on Active Drawing” is selected.

Note: The “Insert All Sections on Active Drawing” option is not available when using the Terminal Strip Table Generator tool.

Specifies where to place the table in the drawing. You can enter x and y values or pick a point on the screen.
