Re: Was Re: creating a page segment now Problem with rotation of a page segment

Thanks for your reply Michael
I have been playing with the position across and position down as well as
the rotation
Here is what I have found using the system i Navigator
I have to use a rotation value of 270 so that the logo is in the correct
format in relation to the print on the form
However, with this rotation, of 270, the logo does NOT print
A rotation value of 0, the logo DOES print (only 90 degrees to the print on
the form)

ANYONE ANY CLUES HERE WHY THE LOGO DOES NOT PRINT WITH ROTATION OF 270?

With the rotation at 270, the placement on the viewer is NOT at the same
position with the rotation at 0 (position across and position down
parameters are the same for BOTH rotation values)

ANYONE ANY CLUES HERE?

In all cases, the values for rotation, position across and position down
are parameters external to the program. So in ALL test cases, the print
file and the program DO NOT change. Just the parameters

God - this is SO FRUSTRATING

Does the rotation take it out of the printable area? Try changing the
position (row, column) and see if that changes anything. Any messages
in the job log?

If you see this for a third time, my apologies

Hopefully this all makes sense to someone
I have created a Page segment object in my library
When I try to use in on a particular form, the form is printed correctly

on

A4, in landscape format.
However, the page segment (logo) is printed perpendicular to the form
Looking at what I was able to glean from my google search, I would need

to

use the *ROTATION parameter within the PAGESEG command in my DDS defined
print file
When i use a value of 0 for the *ROTATION parameter, the page segment
(logo) is printed perpendicular to the form
When I use one of the other values (90, 180, 270) for the *ROTATION
parameter, the page segment (logo) does NOT print at all on the form

Questions
1. The most obvious one, anyone know what I am doing wrong
2. Is there a way to see if there is a page segment in the spool file.
Using Display spool file command does NOT show the logo

We are at V5r4
