Edit Addenda
When you open the addenda split view, there are several features that you can use to move around and view your work:
The Addenda PowerView can be undocked from anywhere in TOTAL. This is especially helpful when using multiple monitors. To undock the Addenda PowerView, simply click Undock. Once undocked, click‑and‑drag the borders of the window to resize it, then click‑and‑drag the window to a separate area on your screen or even a separate monitor.
If you have multiple addenda in your report, quickly navigate to any of them using the drop‑down list at the top left of the addenda window. The asterisk (*) indicates the addendum where overflow text is placed. Click here to learn more about text overflow options.
If you've used the text overflow feature to insert text from your form, or linked data from any fields, you can quickly locate these sections in your addendum. Click Go To Field in the lower toolbar. A screen displays all of the linked fields. Double‑click the desired link and you're taken directly to that section of the report.
Header
All addendum pages have a header, by default you can only see the header in any addendum if you enable the header view.
The header doesn't show by default but does show when printing whether it is enabled or not. The same goes for the footer where the signature block is.
Enabling the Header view is easy, first you have to be in the addenda page then click the header button from the toolbar. To edit the text again click the header button to disable it.
Ruler, Margins, and Layout
Use the ruler at the top of the workspace to customize the layout of your addendum.
Tab Stops: Tab stops dictate where your cursor jumps when you press the Tab key, allowing you to perfectly align columns of text or numbers. Click the toggle button to the left of the ruler to cycle through the five available alignment types: Left (
), Right (
), Center (
), Decimal (
), or Bar (

Paragraph Indentation: The double arrow on the left side of the ruler (
