Can I relayout table cell's subview?

I read from document:
Avoid relayout of content. When reusing cells with custom subviews, refrain from laying out those
subviews each time the table view requests a cell. Lay out the subviews once, when the cell is created.
But I do need to relayout cell, when the cell's size changes. (For example, in landscape mode.)

If you can possibly get the layout changes you want by setting the autoresizingMask during cell creation, I think that will give you better performance. Also remember you'll probably have plenty of time to replace all the cells when the overall size changes. You just don't want to be changing the layout while the user is scrolling.
In any case, layout time won't have a noticeable effect until your cell count gets quite high. I think there are guidelines somewhere about how many cells is a big number, but you can tell from testing if you need to start optimizing.

Dreamweaver CS4 - Can't see table cells and borders

Hello you all. I just started using CS4 and whenever there is a white background I can't see any of the table cell or main borders.
I went to View>Visual Aids>Table Borders and it is on, but I can't seem to find the area I need to change the color to view it on white.

I just remember the previous versions would allow you to change the dotted line color that indicated the table and cell borders.
Must say I can't ever remember that being a preference in any previous version of DW.
Sadly, it looks like I will be using tables to set up my site. Haven't adopted CSS as much as I'd like at this point.
Now's as good a time as any to start with CSS from the ground up.
Try one of the pre-made templates in DW under File > New

I can't resize table cells properly.

The height won't adjust when I try to drag, and there is no option to do it numerically. What can I do?

In Pages v5.2.2, the bottom of the Table tab panel has default Row & Column Size settings. Once you click on the triangle preceding this section name, more adjustments are revealed to you. If Resize rows to fit cell contents is not checked, select it to see if that solves your cell height issue. If not, then you may need to decrement the default value in Row height to get the desired setting. Until you do this, attempts at using drag to collapse row height will resist you.

RoboHelp 7 to 9 : Table Cell Padding

HI All,
I very recently upgraded from TCS 1.3 with RoboHelp 7 to TCS 3.5 with RoboHelp 9. Yeay! All is good so far except one little niggle. . .
I use tables frequently in my source files to set out information. In RH7 I did this through Table > Insert > Table... Select number of rows and columns then click OK.
When I did this I could see that RH had automatically added padding to the table cells. If I added text into the cell there was a small gap between the table border and start of the text.
When I perform the same action in RH9, the padding appears to be missing (highlight a table cell and skip over to HTML view). I can't figure out how to add this automatically.It could get a little tiresome if I have to add it for each table cell from now on in order to be consistent with the tables already in my project. Manually adding a margin from the Table properties dialog appears to make no difference. Even when I set the margin to be outrageously huge, my text still butts right up against the table border.
So, does anyone know how I can set my table cells to automatically have the same padding as they did in RH7?
Any ideas or help are welcomed. Thanks guys!
Lil

Presumably, after reading the Table Styles topic in the help as well as your tour Peter, my existing tables stay as is unless I apply a table style to them but I have to create a style for any new tables I add into my project files?
Yes to all questions. At some point it may be worth converting your inline tables to CSS though so that future changes are just at CSS level.
You don't mention in your tour Peter whether the mapping issue across to printed documentation has now been fixed in RH9?
If you mean what I think you do, not that is still an issue.
Having attempted to create a table style, I'm now trying to work out why if I choose to apply formatting to the 'Whole Table' and set the borders to 'Solid', '1px', 'All Borders' and 'Silver', I get an outline around the whole table rather than all cells bordered. Confused?!!
The table editor is a nightmare. Whole table means the outer borders, not the whole table, as one might reasonably expect. I think the trick is to set borders for odd rows as top left and even rows as bottom right, something like that.

Setting Table Cell Renderer for a row or cell

I need to make a JTable that has the following formats:
Row 1 = number with no decimals and columns
Row 2 = number with no decimals and columns
Row 3 = percent with 4 decimals
I can use a table cell renderer to set each COLUMN as one or the other formats like this:
NumDispRenderer ndr = new NumDispRenderer();
for(int i = 1;i<dates.size();i++) {
table.getColumnModel().getColumn(i).setCellRenderer(ndr);
Where NumDispRenderer is a class as follows:
public class NumDispRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent (JTable table, Object value,boolean isSelected, boolean isFocused, int row, int column) {
Component component = super.getTableCellRendererComponent (table,value,isSelected,isFocused,row,column);
if (value != null && value instanceof Double) {
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("###,###");
String output = df.format(value);
((JLabel)component).setText(output);
((JLabel)component).setHorizontalAlignment(JLabel.RIGHT);
} else {
((JLabel)component).setText(value == null ? "" : value.toString());
return component;
This is fine for the first two rows, but the third row (which is also an instance of Double) I would like to format differently.
The tutorial and other postings have not given a solution to this problem. Any suggestions would be very appreciated.

Hi,
the method getTableCellRendererComponent() of your renderer gets the row as a parameter. So just create the label depending on that value. For 0<=row<=1 you create the label as is, and for row=2 you create another label with the Double formatted as you wish.

How can I add dots after text to fill the remaining space in a table cell?

What is the most efficient way to add dots after text to fill the remaining space in a table cell? I know it is possible using tabs but is this possible using a table?

You can put a tab inside a table cell using Option+Tab
Then just set the right-aligned tab stop and the right edge of the table cell and add the leader.

How can I insert/move a table cell in Pages?

I'm making labels for tab dividers (specifically, for dividers in comic book boxes) and I'm trying to figure out how I can insert an empty cell in the table. Or move the other cells over/down and have them "wrap" from the end of the row to the beginning of the next row if neccessary. Can this be done?

Jerrold, I can do that, but I was hoping for a way to "scootch over" the cells so I can keep them in order. That would require me to cut and paste every cell from the target cell to the end of the document (or page). I have a feeling that what I'm looking for doesn't exist.
Thanks, I appreciate the idea.
Kon,
It would be easy to move a group of rows, but there's no way to get it to snake down or up. This is a 2-D array, not not a linear array that has been meandered into a rectangle. You could write an expression to do this, but it would take several steps, and would involve a second table. You could also write an Applescript to do what you want. All of this seems a lot of work for what, as Peter notes, seems a rather simple result.

When you do a SQL INSERT command, you create a new row. If you want to change an existing row, you have to use the UPDATE command (i.e. UPDATE tablename SET column = value WHERE some_column=some_value). The some_column could be the unique ID of each row, a date/time, etc.
I have no idea what function to use in the toolkit to execute a SQL command since I don't use the toolkit. I also don't understand why you just don't do a single INSERT. It would be much faster.

Can a Table Cell span more than one page?

I'm working with tables in Pages to create a list of literature and important takeaways from each article. Sometimes the important information is more than I can fit on one page. However, Pages doesn't seem to be able to handle splitting cells across multiple pages. Instead, it seems to "push" the overflow text beyond the page, so I can't even see it as I'm typing.
In Word, such situations just cause the table cell to continue on to the next page. But I can't figure out how to do that in Pages. (And I'm a little concerned that there's not a way to handle this.)
Thanks!

The cell in question does split across 2 pages. "Do I need to" do that isn't really the point.
My question was whether Pages can handle splitting a table cell across 2 pages.
Pages can't; Word can.
(I'm trying to switch over for all of my future work into Pages, so there's a learning curve for me. The type of work I'm doing does have cells that split over 2 pages. In Word, it's not a big deal. Unfortunately, in Pages, I need to split the row in order to do the same thing. Which is kind of a pain, since I'm building the table dynamically and may insert rows above, below or between existing rows. In Word, it automatically handles moving the cells across multiple pages - or merging them back if I edit the text or insert/remove rows above.)

Can I relayout table cell's subview?
