SmartView VBA - Cannot set "Update Column Width" setting

Hi Folks,
I'm in the process of updating a series of v9 Essbase VBA API-driven workbooks to SmartView 11.1.2.1 and have hit a problem - I'm new to the SV VBA commands, and I'm hoping this is something obvious that I'm missing.
One of the functions that is key to ensuring data retrieval does not change the layout of the spreadsheets is the "Adjust Column Widths" setting, which in the Essbase VBA API could be managed using the EssVSetSheetOption function, but neither HypSetGlobalOption nor HypSetSheetOption appear to have any such capability. The only option I'm left with is to run retrieves followed by some reformatting of column widths, which seems rather ineligant to me.
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Dave

looking in the .bas file (and what should be included in your project I find HSV_ADJUSTCOLUMNWIDTH in the definitions for Enumeration of options index to be used for HypGetOption/HypSetOption
Note, I'm looking at the 11.1.2.2 version, your mileage may vary depending on your version

Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view

When my Finder windows open in column view, all the columns are always VERY wide. I have to then spend time resizing them to a managable width. Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view?

No, because you can't set a columns view default.

New to portal: Setting the column width in portal QBE report

I'm trying to set different widths to different columns in the QBE report. One of the columns in the report contains long descriptive text. With the default column width the reports runs into many pages and user has to scroll a lot. I would like to set the column width for this column so that it does not wrap for every 2/3 words. In the customization tab, I'm setting the width type to "Char" and selecting the number of characters to be displayed in that coulmn. Percent/pixel width type also didn't help. Should I set the Header width also?. I'm not sure where to set this header column width.QBE report just ignores these customization parameters and displays the report in default format. Please let me know if you have any idea/solution to this problem.
Thanks

Set JTable column width

Hi,
I would like to set the column width of JTable.
========================================
JTable table;
DefaultTableModel tableModel;
tableModel = new DefaultTableModel();
table = new JTable( tableModel);
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(table);
for(int i = 0; i < heading.length; i++)
tableModel.addColumn( heading[ i ]);
========================================

Did you run the tutorial code? Did it work?
Now compare the tutorial code with your code to determine what is different.
We can't tell you what is different based on the one line of code you posted:
colModel.getColumn(i).setPreferredWidth(100);

Can't set custom column widths in JTable

I'm trying to set custom columns widths. They are set as I wish but then they are reset to default values (all columns have the same size). This is caused by method JFrame.setVisible(true) which invokes JTree.setWidthsFromPreferredWidths(). It can be investigated from following stack trace printed when a column being resized (see below).
How to prevent this auto width sizing?
P.S. can't override JTable.setWidthsFromPreferredWidths(); seems it's private
table = new JTable(model) {
     public void columnMarginChanged(ChangeEvent event) {
          new Exception("stack trace").printStackTrace();
          super.columnMarginChanged(event);

When I create the table I have code like this:TableColumn col = getColumnModel().getColumn(2);
col.setMinWidth(width + 4);
col.setMaxWidth((int)(width * 1.2));Works just fine for me. The setWidthsFromPreferredWidths() method will use these limits as far as I can see.

How can i set the column width in the jtable?

how can i set the column width in the jtable?

How to set initial column widths for a table

What I'd like to do is to control the initial column widths for a table.
I'm building the table by using a class which extends AbstractTableModel. This class takes care of setting the headers and reading the data for the table.
If I do the following:
VarTableModel vtm = new VarTableModel(vi);
JTable jt = new JTable(vtm);
JScrollPane jsp = new JScrollPane(jt);
frame.getContentPane().add(jsp);
frame.setVisible(true);
I will see a table in my window. The widths of the columns are equal and are a function of the horizontal dimension of the window.
I have tried to set the width of a column by doing the following:
TableColumn aColumn;
aColumn = jt.getColumn(vtm.getColumnName(0));
aColumn.setWidth(40);
But this has no effect on what gets displayed. I can force the widths that I want by using 'setMaxWidth' but this has the unfortunate side effect of not allowing the user to make the column wider if they want.
What I'd like is a way to specify the widths of the columns when initially displayed and then let the user adjust to their liking.
I'm sure that there is a way to do this, but I don't seem to understand where to intervene in the process to produce the effect that I want.
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Table.setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF);
add this line and try ur codeThanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to do the trick. Here is an abbreviated segment of my code:
vtm = new VarTableModel(vi);
JTable jt = new JTable(vtm);
// we want a horizontal scrollbar, so turn resizing off
// and we want to control column widths
jt.setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF);
aColumn = jt.getColumn(vtm.getColumnName(0));
aColumn.setWidth(40);
. // same kind of thing for each column
aColumn = jt.getColumn(vtm.getColumnName(4));
aColumn.setWidth(400);
JScrollPane jsp = new JScrollPane(jt);
frame.getContentPane().add(jsp);
frame.setVisible(true);
If I do the above, the table gets displayed with each of the five columns the exact same width. So, the sizing of the columns is happening somewhere else despite turning auto resizing off.
Where is that occurring and how can I intervene so that I can control the widths of the columns on initial display and still allow the user to adjust the widths if they so choose?

How to set the column width in the PDF exports of interactive reports ?

Hello,
I have a huge problem with the PDF export for the Interactive reports. I'm using APEX 3.2.
I have to produce a PDF report in landscape format that show 21 columns. My problem is that the columns have a ridiculous short width and that the text inside the columns do not wrap in the columns. So I get things like that :
Date Name
2011 Leina
I should see 2011-08-01 and the name Leinad Jan
I tried several things to format the columns, but none of the them has any effect on the PDF itself.
1) I used HTML code in the report query. It works well with the interactive report, but display the HTML tags in the PDF.
2) I used css to set the width of my columns. It works in the interactive report, but not in the PDF, the column width do not change.
It's like the report do not notice that my page format is Legal 14 x 8.5 (Landscape) and still believe it's 8.5 x 11 (which is "portrait")
Do you have any idea so set the columkn widths in the reports ?
Thank you !
Edited by: leinadjan on Aug 1, 2011 11:15 AM

To "remember" the column widths, add a mouse listener to the table header. Upon mouseReleased(), get the column widths and save them to your file. When the application starts next time, get the stored widths and set them using:
table.getColumn("XXX").setPreferredWidth(...);
By default, your columns are adjustable, but you can use:
table.getTableHeader().setResizingAllowed(true);

Hi,
You need to change Table setting Layout. Please check this code:
* create an instance of ALV component
DATA: LR_IF_CONTROLLER TYPE REF TO IWCI_SALV_WD_TABLE,
LR_CMP_USAGE TYPE REF TO IF_WD_COMPONENT_USAGE,
LR_CMDL TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_CONFIG_TABLE,
LR_TABLE_SETTING TYPE REF TO IF_SALV_WD_TABLE_SETTINGS.
LR_CMP_USAGE = WD_THIS->WD_CPUSE_ALV( ).
IF LR_CMP_USAGE->HAS_ACTIVE_COMPONENT( ) IS INITIAL.
LR_CMP_USAGE->CREATE_COMPONENT( ).
ENDIF.
** get reference to the ALV model
LR_IF_CONTROLLER = WD_THIS->WD_CPIFC_ALV( ).
LR_CMDL = LR_IF_CONTROLLER->GET_MODEL( ).
LR_TABLE_SETTING ?= LR_CMDL.
** Set column width
DATA LR_COL TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_COLUMN.
LR_COL = LR_CMDL->IF_SALV_WD_COLUMN_SETTINGS~GET_COLUMN( 'PERNR' ).
LR_COL->SET_WIDTH( '70' ) .
LR_COL = LR_CMDL->IF_SALV_WD_COLUMN_SETTINGS~GET_COLUMN( 'ENAME' ).
LR_COL->SET_WIDTH( '100' ) .
LR_TABLE_SETTING->SET_FIXED_TABLE_LAYOUT( ABAP_TRUE ).
LR_TABLE_SETTING->SET_FIXED_TABLE_LAYOUT( ABAP_TRUE ).

PivotTable: set max column width

I'm looking for a way to set the max width of the pivot table columns as the in my scenario, the column header can be very short or very long. AutoSizing work great for me so far. However, when the column header is too long, i don't want to have a column that take up half the screen page unnecessary. I know that i have to use the SizingManager columnWidthRule for this but I can't find a good example of how to leverage that.
Any help or suggestion on this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Tony

How to set dynamic column width for analysis item

Dear Experts,
I have a query view which is added in the web template as an analysis item. The web item properties on width is not working - I tried entering a value in the width but when I execute the template, the query view's width still stays the same.
Module com.sap.ip.bi.rig.ColumnWidth don't seem correct because I don't want the column width to be static. As my number of columns may change, I wanted the overall width of my query view to stay the same.
Appreciate any ideas which can solve this issue
Thanks and Regards,
huimin
BW newbie

Hi Huimin,
I don't think it is possible to fix the width of the Analysis webitem since it dynamically adjusts its width based on the text maxlength within its cells. Unless you use com.sap.ip.bi.rig.ColumnWidth where the cols are static, you cannot achieve this.
Even if you do override the css settings using a cell padding or something, the portal settings would override the same. How about using a Report webitem to insert tables/charts & check if the width can be adjusted here - just a thought.
