splitOversizedItem (Split Oversized Items)

Defines the behavior for when a single item exceeds the space in layout direction.

In the Properties view, this property is the Split Oversized Items property in the Mini Page category.

When set to TRUE, this value allows the splitting of large non-propagating items (such as HTMLBOX, WORDWRAPBOX or IMAGEBOX) into chunks using preferable breakpoints (if available). Preferable breakpoints refer to whitespace or between table rows.

Otherwise the box becomes overfull.

Note: The splitting of a large item is a costly operation. The item that is split is kept in memory until the last split has been performed. The item that is split should not exceed a few pages.

Type: Boolean.
