Prerequisites

Steps to reproduce

The -RepeatHeader switch parameter for Format-Table works as expected (header lines are repeated after a number of table rows are output based on the size of the console window) when rendering a data type using custom formatting. For example, these commands will render with repeated headers:

  • Get-Process | Format-Table -RepeatHeader
  • Get-ChildItem C:\Windows\ | Format-Table -RepeatHeader
    However, these commands do not render with repeated headers:
  • Get-Verb | Format-Table -RepeatHeader
  • Get-Process | Format-Table -Property Name, ID -RepeatHeader
  • Get-ChildItem C:\Windows\ | Format-Table -Property Name, Length -RepeatHeader

Expected behavior

Output of Format-Table contains multiple header rows

Actual behavior

Header row is only rendered at the beginning of the output.
