Component Settings

A number of component settings are available for each layout component of an invoice/credit note or payslip format to allow the size, position, formatting and other characteristic of the component to be defined and edited.

The component settings can be viewed and modified by clicking on a component within the components list in the Component List and Property Grid pane or by clicking on the component on the layout, as highlighted in the example below. Note: the right hand Property panel is collapsed in this screen shot.

Once the relevant component is selected, the Property panel on the right displays the component settings for the component you have selected, as shown in the example below.
