This method is implemented on the client-side. It is called by ABBYY FineReader Engine after the block type has been changed in Image Viewer or in Zoom Viewer synchronized with Image Viewer. It allows you to cancel the type change. The block type can be changed via the block properties toolbar or popup menu, or indirectly, by adding table separators to a block which previously was of non-table type.
