[reportlab-users] Problem with spanned columns when a platypus table is split

[Jean-Francois Gosset]

Hi,

It seems that spanned commands are ignored when a table is split.
As seen in the output of the example, the first line of the first table is ok but is not spanned in the second print.

(I use reportlab 1.20).

Thanks for you help!
JF
