Space between the end of a table and a text entry

Hi,

In FM 2020, I have a table that continues over two pages. Within the table I have rows that have superscript. The definition for that superscript is placed after the end of the table. Is there a way to decrease the space between the end of the table and the text that explains the superscript. There is currently too much space between the end of the table and that text.

 

Thank you.

 

Cheers,

Elizabeth

    For some applications, rather than use text below table, or table footnote, I add a row to the table bottom, full-straddle, borderless left/bottom/right. Put the table footnotes in that cell, numbering as needed, and Xref to them in the table contents (which also makes them hypertext in e-formats including PDF).

    Assuming your superscript is a Footnote Reference.

    The distance between "end of table" and "start of (table) footnotes" is defined by a frame on the Reference Page named reference:

    To change the distance change the hight of the frame. The text obove the fame is just for you to see the name of the frame.

    The informtion I added as a superscript was an asterisk (*) which I placed in the first area where I could add text, which was below the table. The area where I placed his text is a little too far from the end of the table and looks as if it doesn't belong there. I didn't use the footmote capability.

    Ah, then the relevant property is defined in the Table designer:
