I already have the columns created. I would like to put a line between them, as is possible in Word.
How do I set it using Apache POI?
CTColumns coluna1 = sectPr.addNewCols();
coluna1.setNum(BigInteger.valueOf(1));
CTColumns coluna2 = sectPr.addNewCols();
coluna2.setNum(BigInteger.valueOf(2));
That would be CTColumns.setSep. Up to Apache POI 4 this was a ON/OFF value of type org.openxmlformats.schemas.wordprocessingml.x2006.main.STOnOff. From Apache POI 5 on it is 0(OFF) or 1(ON).
...
//ctColumns.setSep(STOnOff.ON); // up to Apache POI 4
ctColumns.setSep("1"); // from Apache POI 5 on
...
