Hi, all! I'm making an invoice that needs to continue onto an indefinite number of pages, but I only want the footer to appear on the last page (so that the total only appears at the end). I know I could get rid of the footer in this table and manually create a new table as a fake footer at the end, but I want to make this as streamline as possible for future work.
Here's a screenshot of the two beginning pages; the table begins on page 1 and continues onto page 2:
When I open "Table Setup" go to "Headers & Footers," I can skip the first header and skip the last footer, but I'm trying to get the footer to skip every page until the last page. Sadly, each of the options in the "Repeat Footer" drop down menu ("Every Text Column," "Once per Frame," and "Once per Page") don't affect this situation. I can imagine "Once per Frame" being helpful here, but only if I find a way to define the table on the final page as a separate frame(?):
If anyone knows the answer, please let me know! Totally at a loss here. Thanks guys!

Close your mind for the footer. Why don't to use it just last row for your values?
I'm with George. Don't define a footer row (which is specifically for repeating information), just add the required data to the end of the table.

Meh. This is a workaround, but no real solution, and Im requesting such a feature too.
Im with this setup:
A text box spanning its content over many pages. The textbox holds serveral tables.
As you see, page 1 has a table which extends to page 2. I need both, header and footer, on page 1.
Now lets see page 2:
Since the table end on page 2, i dont need a footer there, because the following table brings a footer along.
I just cant use a single table, because I need to keep the category, which is row 1 of the header.
I could cheat, by having a singel-row-table with "Ticket * Topcoat", and starting the actual header below.
