[reportlab-users] adjust the horizontal position of Flowable

[furuichh at onid.orst.edu]

Hi,

We are creating a PDF document by using SimpleDocTemplate of ReportLab.

We know how to add a vertical space by using an instance of Spacer.
However, we do not know how to add a horizontal space prececeeding
a Flowable.

We thought that the first argument of the Spacer constructor,
such as Spacer(3.0*inch, 0.2*inch), might be the
amount of a horizontal space, but it did not cause any effect.

We also modified the following properties of our Flowable const_block:

    const_block.hAlign ='LEFT'
    const_block.width = 6*inch
    const_block.spaceBefore = 3*inch

However, these changed did not cause the desired effect.

We will appreciate any advice.

In responding to this inquiry, please CC to furuichh at onid.orst.edu

Thank you in advance.
