Can i change the column width in a table row dynamically

Hi,
There are two columns in one of the row of the table, can i change the width of the cells dynamically.
Sometimes one of them will be blank and the other cell has to print the entire string .
Left cell is left aligned and the right cell is right aligned.
I tried to change the width using field.W but it didnot work.
Regards,
Sobhan

Hi,
We can change the column width of a column dynamically. Try the javascript code in the appropriate event.
Table.columnWidths = "2in 3in 4in 5in";
Thanks & Regards,

Change the column width on the fly

Dear all,
I have a problem, i have a matrix report, the row is "the project name" and the column is "the items" using within each project, and the problem is the items are variable from time to time the report run for each project, so its exceeds the paper width.
And the question is, is there any way to change the width of the column on the fly, i mean dynamiclly change the column width each time the report is called to make all items fit the paper width.
Thank u

i don't think that we can change the layout of the column in reports
The simple solution for that problem is that u have to
fix the horizontal and vertical layout of the text item
better is to post this problem at reports forum

How to change the column width in Smartforms..?

Hi All..
I need to change the column width in a smartform.
The requirement has been mentioned as follows...
Adjust the column width of the following columns:
MATERIAL: 14 char
DESCRIPTION: 20 char
How to perform this..??
Where can i find the column width of various columns of a smartform..???
Please Help me...
Regards
Pavan

In the SMART Forms, you would have created a Table object and specified the line width and divided that into no. of columns that you want, you have to mandatorily specify the width of each column so that total of column width will be equal to that of the line width.
When you double click on the Table object, you can TABLE tab on the right side. If you can't see the line / columns details, click on the DETAILS button.

How can i change the column label text in a alv table display

how can i change the column label text in a alv table display??
A similar kinda of question was posted previuosly where the requirement was the label text was needed and following below code was given as solution :
* declare column, settings, header object
DATA: lr_column TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column.
DATA: lr_column_settings TYPE REF TO if_salv_wd_column_settings.
DATA: lr_column_header type ref to CL_SALV_WD_COLUMN_HEADER.
get column by specifying column name.
lr_column = lr_column_settings->get_column( 'COLUMN_NAME1' ).
set Header Text as null
lr_column_header = lr_column->get_header( ).
lr_column_header->set_text( ' ' ).
My specific requirement is i have an input field on the screen and i want reflect that value as the column label for one of the column in the alv table. I have used he above code with slight modification in the MODIFYVIEW method of the view since it is a process after input. The component gets activated without any errors but while run time i get an error stating
"The following error text was processed in the system CDV : Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible."
i have checked in debugging and the error occured at the statement :
lr_column = lr_column_settings->get_column( 'CURRENT_YEAR' ).Please can you provide me an alternative for my requirement or correct me if i have done it wrong.
Thanks,
Suri

I found it myself how to do it. The error says that it is not able to find the reference object i.e it is asking us to refer to the table. The following piece of code will solve this problem. Have to implement this in WDDOMODIFYVIEW method of the view. This thing works comrades enjoy...
DATA : lr_cmp_usage TYPE REF TO if_wd_component_usage,
 lr_if_controller TYPE REF TO iwci_salv_wd_table,
 lr_cmdl TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_config_table,
 lr_col TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column.
DATA : node_year TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
 elem_year TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element,
 stru_year TYPE if_alv_layout=>element_importing,
 item_year LIKE stru_year-i_current_year,
 lf_string TYPE char(x),
DATA: lr_column TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column.
DATA: lr_column_header TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column_header.
DATA: lr_column_settings TYPE REF TO if_salv_wd_column_settings.
Get the entered value from the input field of the screen
node_year = wd_context->get_child_node( name = 'IMPORTING_NODE' ).
elem_year = node_year->get_element( ).
elem_year->get_attribute(
 EXPORTING
 name = 'IMPORT_NODE-PARAMETER'
 IMPORTING
 value = L_IMPORT_PARAM ).
WRITE L_IMPORT_PARAM TO lf_string.
Get the reference of the table
lr_cmp_usage = wd_this->wd_cpuse_alv( ).
IF lr_cmp_usage->has_active_component( ) IS INITIAL.
 lr_cmp_usage->create_component( ).
ENDIF.
lr_if_controller = wd_this->wd_cpifc_alv( ).
lr_column_settings = lr_if_controller->get_model( ).
get column by specifying column name.
IF lr_column_settings IS BOUND.
 lr_column = lr_column_settings->get_column( 'COLUMN_NAME').
set Header Text as null
 lr_column_header = lr_column->get_header( ).
 lr_column_header->set_text( lf_string ).
endif.

Can we change the default tablespace of a table?

Hi All,
Can we change the default tablespace for any TABLE while it contains any data? If yes, how it works? If no, any workaround?
Thanx,
Zaaf

instead of moving your table after the import you could:
1)execute an import with the parameter ROWS = N
2)move the empty tables to the correct tablespace
3)execute an impot with ROWS = Y and IGNORE = Y
This way you will only have to move empty tables which will probably be much faster also there is no need to rebuild the indexes.

How can i change the default width of the Narrow column for page layout?

Would like to increase it?
Aqualogic 6.1 MP1 or 6.5MP1...
Thanks
Sunil

Not only can you set global values for each of the three columns, but you can also set unique column widths on a per community basis like this:
.ptCommunity-1234 .columnOne { width: 635px; border-right:1px solid #CCCCCC; padding-top: 10px; padding-right: 20px; }
.ptCommunity-1234 .columnTwo { width: 240px; padding-top: 10px; padding-left: 8px;}
You can see here my community #1234 has a wide first column and a more narrow column two and even puts a little solid line between them.
It's all in the stylesheets on your imageserver at the path I mentioned earlier. Again, look at the experience definition object in your admin portal and look at the stylesheet name in the dropbox. The stylesheet name you see is mapped to the .css file using the community-themes.txt file in the same ...yadayada/common/public/css folder on the imageserver.
If you have, lets say, a mainstyle1-en.css that only has about a dozen lines dictating only the few items you mentioned before - then it has been stripped at one time because the default that comes w/ an original install is huge and a great starting point. It even has style tips and snippets in comment blocks to tutor you through its gargantuan variety of options.

How do you change the column widths in a master-detail input form?

I have changed several columns to af:inputText so that the field contents can be modified, but this defaults the column width to a huge size, way past the size of the actual data field itself. Modifying the width attribute is ignored and dragging the column dividers is also ignored.
How do I reduce the widths of these columns?
Thanks

Hi,
maybe this blog entry "Referencing Maximum Length of an Attribute in an EL Expression" by Steve Muench helps

In Sales Order changing the column width to see all item desciption?

When in the sales order screen .
Expand the column width of say the item description.
How do I save the column width for all the sales documents for the field item description in sales order ?

Hi,
The column width of the Document will be defaulted to the same size at which the user has saved the last document.
So, if a user has saved the Sales Order with a big column width for the 'Item Description' then after saving and re-entering into the Sales Order, the user can see the same column width for all the Sales Order's.
I hope the above helps.
Cheers~

How can I reduce the column width in a spreadsheet according to the text?

Hi,
I added a spreadsheet to a pages document and now I want to reduce the column width so that it fits the content (text).
I tried it the other way around: I added very small columns and then chose the adjust-automatically-option in informations. This worked, the columns became broader and matched the text.
Now I got a lot of spreadsheets which columns are too broad. When choosing adjust-automatically just nothing happens. What can I do?
Sorry if this sounds a little weird, I'm using English seldom at time and don't know which words to choose to describe my problem properly. Hope someone can help me nevertheless?
Sarah

Hi Sarah,
In Pages, the table Autosize feature pertains to Row Height, not Column Width. Numbers has more Table sizing options than Pages does, so you might want to consider looking into doing your work in Numbers.
In Pages, there are slight differences in how tables behave depending on whether they are Inline or Floating. You might want to experiment with that. Long tables, however, must be Inline.

I'm using a panelCollection and I need to change the backgroung color for odd/even rows in the table,
how can I do this, using a stylesheet, is there a special selector or property for this?
globalResultCollection (UIPanelCollection object) , is a collection of UITable elements, and it's working fine.
I just want to change the defaul background color for rows.
Thanks
<af:panelCollection id="GLOBAL_RESULT_COLLECTION"

<f:facet name="toolbar">
<af:toolbar inlineStyle="width:100%"
binding="#{admin.view.globalOperationToolbar}"
id="OPERATION_TOOLBAR"/>
</f:facet>
</af:panelCollection>

Hi,
use this:
af|table::data-row af|column::data-cell { background-color: #CCCCFF; }
af|table::data-row af|column::banded-data-cell { background-color: #FFCCCC; }

hi
Why dont you achieve it by using view

How do I change the border width of a table column?

Hi I am using Studio Edition Version 11.1.1.3.0.
I want to set the border width of columns inside an af:table to something different than the default still haven´t found a way to do this. I have tried setting Border Width property in Style tab of the column but it has no effect. I would apprciate if someone could tell me how to do this or point to some tutorial or blog where I can see how this is done.

I tested it a little more and it seems like what I did is working on normal columns and the reason it isn´t working in my case is because I have two grouping columns (that is two columns containing other columns) and on those columns code like
<af:column sortProperty="BillRef" sortable="true" headerText="#{bindings.Bill.hints.BillRef.label}"
id="tblBillC1" width="85" inlineStyle="border-width:2.0px; border-color:Red;">
has no effect for some reason.
It is the group columns borders that I want to make a little wider so that it is easyer for the user of the table to see the where the table is split into groups.
I will make an example to better descibe what I want to achieve.
If you look at the code below and observe what is achieved when it is run you will see that the borders of the inner columns become green and 10px while the outer columns don´t get blue and 20px and it is the outer columns border that I want to change.
<af:table >
<af:column headerText="Sosial eyðmerking" id="sosCol" align="center"
inlineStyle="border-color:Blue; border-width:20.0px;">
<af:column sortProperty="something"
headerText="something" id="c5"
inlineStyle="border-color:Green; border-width:10.0px;">
<af:outputText value="something" id="ot2"/>
</af:column>
<af:column headerText="#something" id="c7">
<af:outputText value="something" id="ot3"/>
</af:column>
</af:column>
<af:column headerText="Rokn eyðmerking" id="roknCol" align="center"
inlineStyle="border-color:Blue; border-width:20.0px;">
<af:column sortProperty="something"
headerText="something" id="c8" filterable="true"
inlineStyle="border-color:Green; border-width:10.0px;">
<af:outputText value="something" id="ot4"/>
</af:column>
<af:column headerText="#something" id="c9">
<af:outputText value="something" id="ot5"/>
</af:column>
</af:column>
