<?blockspread>
Description
If column widths have been specified in a block, as well as an overall block width, a situation may occur where the total width of the columns and gutters falls short of the overall specified block width. The <?blockspread> command instructs PTC ALD to expand all the columns in the block in proportion to their widths to make up the additional space.
 
This is a final option for specifying column widths, since usually any remaining space will have been take up by columns or gutter that have been given relative widths.
