[reportlab-users] Float flowable to bottom of page

[James Lance]

Is there a way to make a flowable element float to the bottom of the page?

I'm working on a invoice document, at the bottom of the page is a tear off segment that can be returned with payment.  I can draw directly on the canvas, but I don't want to include the segment on every page, just the last.

What I've done is put all the elements that make up my tear off segment into a KeepTogether flowable. I've tried messing around with putting a spacer before it what attempts to fill all remaining space with out pushing it to the next page.  I can't seem to work out the correct height of the spacer, and still be flexible concerning the previous flowable content.  Of course if there are enough line items or other data then naturally the tear off segment will go to the next page.

So, how can I pin the tear off to the bottom of the page while still keeping it a flowable?  Is that even possible?

Thanks,

James
