6.1 vs 10.3: between column spacing

It appears that there is a slight difference in the spacing between columns in 6.1 and 10.3
Given that we use full column width images in each of our portlets, this is now causing us to have a minor horizontal scroll in the ballpark of 10 pixels in a 3 column layout.
Does anyone know where in the CSS the control is to set the spacing between columns?
Thanks!
Geoff

Found it!
6.1

</td>
<td colspan="1"><img src="http://dimension.marchofdimes.com/imageserver/plumtree/portal/public/img/sp.gif" alt="" border="0" align="absmiddle" height="1" width="5"/></td>
6.5
</td>
<td colspan="1" id="horizontalPaddingCell0"><img src="http://dimensiondev/imageserver/plumtree/portal/public/img/sp.gif" alt="" border="0" align="absmiddle" height="1" width="10"/></td>
This is how to fix the problem in the CSS (assuming you consider it a problem)
/* Set the following 2 attributes to adjust the spacing between columns */
#horizontalPaddingCell0 img{width:5px;}
#horizontalPaddingCell1 img{width:5px;}

Pages-how to set spacing between columns

There used to be a spacing option between columns in Pages. How does one change that spacing now?

In Pages v5(.2), the column and gutter settings are located on the Format > Layout panel. The Gutter setting can be changed by double-clicking on its numeric value. If you have disabled the Equal column width check box, you can also directly change each Column width as you have the Gutter. Revealing the rulers from the View menu can improve the multicolumn layout process, as column indicators appear in the top ruler.

How to make paragraphs line up between columns?

I want to make a 2 column chapter, with the text in each column in its own flow. But then I want some of the paragraphs to line up between columns.
So, like this:
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
yyyyyyyyy
yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
I'm assuming I can't use side heads to put the first column text in, because the info on the left goes on for multiple paragraphs, and I can't seem to line up a block of paragraphs with the baseline of the appropriate right column text.
I used to do this in tables, like this:
xxxxxxxxxx ! yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx ! yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx ! yyyyyyyyy
! yyyyyyyyy
! yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx !
xxxxxxxxxx !
xxxxxxxxxx !
xxxxxxxxxx ! yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx ! yyyyyyyyy
...where the gridlines between rows and columns would be hidden. However, I sometimes need to print just the right column, which meant I had to remove the table. It's a 600-page document, I was looking for a more elegant solution.
Any suggestions?
I am using FM8.0(266) on Windows XP.

If you take the sidehead approach that Niels suggest, you could do
this, but it would be a bit of maintenance.
Have your "xxxxx" flow content sit in text frames within anchored
frames. The anchored frames are then in a special conditionalized
paragraph ("z") in the *sidehead* before every "yyyy" flow section,
e.g.
z
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
yyyyyyyyy
yyyyyyyyy
z
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
z
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
The "z" paragraph is just a container for the anchored frames and
should contain no text.
When you hide the "z" tags, all of the "x" flow content will then
disappear as well. You'll have to manually customize the height of
each anchored frame/text frame pair though.
To adjust the spacings between the "y" flow to match at the bottom of
the anchored frames for the "x" flows, use the sidehead paratag ("Z")
and create space above overrides in this paragraph only to adjust the
vertical spacing to keep the x and y sections in sync. This way, you
have overrides confined to only one paratag.
To make maintenance easier, it might be worth creating a FrameScript
that would adjust the height of the anchored/text frame combo based
upon the amount of content in the instructor flow and then apply the
space above override to the anchoring paratag (z).

Can I change the column spacing on just the title page of a 12 page excel spreadsheet?

Greetings! I am attempting to make a order form for work and need some help! The order form is 12 pages long and consists of a title page with a table of contents and the other remaining 11 pages are the items one can purchase. I am struggling with combining the title page and the other 11 pages on the same worksheet because the column spacing of the title sheet is different from the rest of the order form. Is there a way to combine the title page and the order form pages in the same worksheet but have different column spacing? In other words, is there a way to have different column formats for the two???? I have to believe this is possible to do and I would really appreciate any advice!
Cheers!

What version of Excel are you using? I just looked at my old version, but couldn't find a way. It had a Page Break, but not a Section Break.
There's one possibility.
Let's say Page 1 has 7 columns - A thru G
Put the remaining 11 pages in columns H thru N
Is the final product going to remain in Excel format or another format like PDF? If PDF, you could save Page 1 in PDF format & then save the remaining pages in PDF format. Then combine the two files.
 Cheers, Tom

How can i remove the line between columns?

I'm laying out poetry and I only want one column--even in landscape mode. But in landscape mode there's still the line between columns that cuts through my text. I've tried dragging the line, clicking on it and deleting it. When I click on it two Xes appear on the top and bottom, but they don't appear to do anything.

I did a little more reading of threads and now I understand the approach.
Go to View/Layouts and click on any of the layouts which appear on the left. At that point you will have access to the full page template and may make any and all changes you wish.
Keep in mind that some elements will be locked requiring an Arrange/Unlock command before you can eliminat them.
In the end it will be very easy to create completely customized layouts, including background images, rules, etc. etc.
Good luck with the poetry.

How to add some text between columns in dashboard prompt?

Hi,
OBIEE version:10.1.3.4.1
Can we add some words between columns in dashboard prompt?
like, I want to add OR, make sure user not to select different month, if selected the different months it will make the report no data.
Month OR Date Range(this is a calendar)
Does anyone have any idea about this?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Anne

Hi,
If you are using the prompts with presentation variables or referring only the columns separately then you can create individual prompts and place static text between them.
But if you need to have both the prompt columns together then create the prompts and use 'space' as the label names for both.(ie prompts would appear but the name wont appear). And create a static text in the page or in a report and place in the page. Which appears as the name of the prompt with 'OR' between the prompt names.
This should solve your problem.

Distance between columns

Hi all,
I know we have a property called distance between records to maintain distance between records, what property i have to set to maintain a distance between columns.....

I use the following method often:
Once you have all columns displayed on your canvas, select all of them, then use the pulldown menu: Layout, Align components. Set "Align To" to "each other", set "Vertically" to "None", and "Horizontally" to "distribute", then click ok.
(In Forms 6i, the pull-down is Arrange, Align Objects.)

Event Action Filters (difference between column Active & Enabled?)

I have a IPS4260, running v6.0(3).
Under "Configuration" > "Event Action Rules" > "Event Action Filter".
What is the difference between column "Active" and "Enabled"? This is confusing.

Event action filters are evaluated in a specified order. Active means that a filter participates in the order. Enabled means that it can perform a filtering action. Use Disable when you want to preserve the order, but not perform the action (e.g. if you want to turn it off for debugging, but want to keep it's place in the list later). Use Inactive when you don't want the filter in the ordering at all (e.g. if you want to keep it as a reminder, but don't plan to use it again). The filter list is displayed by CLI and IDM in logical order - first all of the Active filters in their specified order, and then all of the Inactive filters. I don't think the designers really intended to have 2 similar options; it is more a side effect of the data model used for storing the configuration.

Spacing between columns

Hi,
In the forms ,I need to vary the width of columns and then rearrange it with proper spacing, is there any other way rather than manually doing it.
or in other word is there way to give the specified distance between two columns which can vary from column to column if column width are different.
For example width of column may be 60,80,20....
I am new to forms.please do suggest.
Thanks
Mandar.

thanks all your reply.
But Moazzam again to know x and y position you need to know the values so its kind of tidious job and can get messy at times if we have more number of columns.
the only way i get is doing it manually.
anyways Thank again for your reply
Mandar.

Need spacing between columns

I am having a time trying to get my three column to allow the background color and text to show between the columns.
You can see what I am speaking of with this link: http://digitalresponseoc.com/clients/casey/index3.html
When I float col 3 to the right it looks nice between center column and right column, but I can't seem to get the center column to "float" only in the center to allow the space between the left and center column.
I want the text to show through.
Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info. Your margin idea works great.
I have the Flash removed but the idea of using the container to show the background as seen at http://digitalresponseoc.com/clients/casey/index.html is giving me problems.
The background needs to be seen through the gaps in the columns.
I am learning more about stuff but I still need to figure out how to have the columns not shift when the browser is resized. argh.
Can you point me in a direction to learn how to do this.
Thanks

Spacing between columns in SQL*Plus

Is there a way to format a SQL*Plus report so
numeric columns are not preceeded by a space?
I've already have the setting SET COLSEP ''
but that doesn't work on the numeric fields.
I've also tried setting the column format
and converting the numbers to strings. Any
help will be much appreciated!!

Numeric values are preceeding with a blank because of the sign (which is not included in the definition number(3,2) = -9.99 to +9.99).
You need to convert to char and trim :
select trim(to_char(mynumber)) mynumber from mytable;

Variable Spacing Between Column Prompts

Hi,
I have a dashboard prompt. I have placed it vertically on the left side of page. I has columns from 3 dimensions. As soon as the columns for a particular dimension end i want to add some additional space before the columns of the other dimensions start. Is there any way to do that. I'm working on OBIEE 11.1.1.5.

That was a Layout Break in Pages '09 and has been chnaged in Pages 5 along with other 90+ features removed.
http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewforum.php?f=22&sid=3527487677f0c 6fa05b6297cd00f8eb9&mforum=iworktipsntrick
Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

Align text between columns with space after paragraphs.

I am creating a proposal with a ton of text. I used to align everything to a baseline grid with justified type and indented paragraphs. Recently, however, I was asked to change the style to left aligned text with spaces between the paragraphs. The text flows into two columns per page, but I'll be damned if I can get the text to line up. I've tried different baseline grids as well as before and after spacing. I think my issue might be trying to keep paragraph spacing as half the leading. If my copy text leading and baseline are 14 or 7 pt, will a 7 pt paragraph space after work?
My leading and pt size is below, if anyone can point me to a solution.
Body copy: 9 pt font/14 pt leadingSpace before/after: 3.5/3.5
Subheaders: 10 pt font/ 14 pt leadingSpace before/after: 7/3.5
Baseline: tried both 14 pt and 7 pt

That's what I thought. I was taught to either have an indented second paragraph or to separate the paragraphs by half the leading of the type. Seems like it's impossible to align the text that way. A full leading separation (14 pt) between paragraphs seems excessive though.
