Changing row height

Hi,
In an AdvancedDataGrid, is it possibe for the user to increase or decrease the row height by dragging/pulling the separations/dividers between the rows with mouse? This is similar to what we can do in an Excel sheet.
If it is possible, can anyone let me know how this can be done.
Thanks

Change row height of a table by dragging

Hi,
One of my swing projects has a requirement that the user should be able to resize the height of individual rows of a table by dragging the row separator with the mouse.
JTable by default allows us to drag the column separators and change the column width. But the row heights are not adjustable in a similar way.
Is it possible to do so? I guess I will have to write a listener for the rows, don't know how to go about it though.
Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
Well here is the table you're talkking about. I tried adding the cellrender and listen to the drag event. Could not proceed much though. I am still trying. In the mean time if any of you can progress on this then please let me know.
I've attached my full code listing here.
Thanks.

Excel 2013 randomly changes row height to 409.5 pixels

So as I said, i open a file, and some of the rows are of the maximum possible height. For no reason. If a colleague of mine opens the same document on his/her laptop, there is no issue. This also makes scrolling almost impossible, since for some reason
a window is not enough to cover 409.5 pixels. Is there any kind soul who could help me out?

I haven't meet this issue, but did see similar issue many times in different forums.

Row Height Issue

Oh Hi I have selected Optimize height by row content from Table and font tab and it shows all my text in activity name but when i saved the layout it changes back to keep current rows heights. Can any one tell me how do i fix this
Thanks in Advanced

*793199 ,*
The "Row Height" issue is a common problem. Some things that affect my row height are:
* Not saving my layout after changing row height
* Notebook items in the gantt chart affecting the row height and may have to be manually widened to display all of the text or symbols
Row Height*
Optimize height by row content:* Indicates you want each row's height determined by its content. If you choose this option, type or select the maximum number of lines that should be included in each row.
Good luck and let me know how it turns out.

Financial Reporting 9.3.1 automatically change the height of the row

How can I make the reports generator automatically change the height of the row if the text does not fit into the cell? I tried different PDF generators (AFPL Ghostscript 8.51, Adobe Acrobat Distiller 6.0) but result was the same: http://sql.ru/forum/actualfile.aspx?id=6396177

Hi,
In HFR if you are not allowing expansion on the row or column, it wont expand itself according text length.
So you need to anticipate the row hight and width according to your need. You can define this in the property sheet.
Thanks,

CSS issue when changing the table row height to 16px

Hello,
After changing the table row height through css like this:
.table-row-cell, .table-cell {
-fx-cell-size: 16;
the table rows are correctly displayed with a 16px height but the cell bottoms seem to be incorrectly set.
For example the following css style (a red 3px bottom border):
.table-cell {
-fx-border-width: 0 0 3 0;
-fx-border-color: red;
doesn't work anymore with the new row height whereas it works with the 24px standard row height.
While investigating with Scenic View, I noticed that changing the row height changes the TableRow layoutBounds height (from 24px to 16px so that's ok) but not the boundsInParent height which remains to 27px. I think it should become 19px (16 + 1.5 + 1.5). I don't know if it's a bug.
Anyway, any help making the css red border working for a 16px row height would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Bruno.

Q: Would this help to just use absolute div tags and give me 'ABSOLUTELY ABSOLUTE' positioning?
No. APDivs are not a good primary layout method. Use default CSS positioning (which is no positioning at all). Align page elements with margins, floats and padding.

Where do I Change Table Row Height with Styles?

I have created a lot of tables in the same document, and now I want to change the height of them. I have used Table Styles and Cell Styles, to be able to change things like this in *one* place instead of the 100 different tables...
I can't find where I alter the Cell Height (aka Row Height) in any of the styles. What have I missed?
Please help!

@Andreas – nothing. You missed nothing. You cannot define cell height or width with cell styles…
However you can do so with scripting. But not directly in scripting a property of the cell style, but in iterating through all table cells, finding out its cell style and acting on the cell directly (height, minimumHeight, maximumHeight and autoGrow properties).
Another scenario would be using a special plug-in like "Smart Styles" from Woodwing.

To change the height of row of a table

hi Experts,
1) Can any one please help me to change the height of row of a table
2) If i need to display data intable in such a way that data would be displayed in every alternate row, keeping one row empty.
Points wil be rewarded to helpful answers,
Regards,
Sanjyoti.

hi Jarrod,
i want to make a display iview where the data comes from a table, add image beside each data from the table,
1) if i display data in table i am not able to add image beside each row.
2)i have also tried using one form and one table displayed side by side where the table has data from data service and form has the images (static), but here again as the height of row can not be changed the image does not fit perfectly beside the rows.
I have not worked in VC before, so dont know wat exactly cant be done,
hope you will guide if you have any idea wat could be done
I got the help given below but not able to understand the flow of what is done
First create a button to trigger an action (let's say the action is called "go").
Drag a line and create a signal out set go as the event, name the signal out as "sig".
Create 4 numeric fields in the signal out "num1",..,"num4".
Map num1 <- 1
Add a signal in to the model, name it "sig" and create 4 numeric field to it ("num1",..,"num4" as well).
Drag a line from the signal in and choose a form from the context menu.
4 recordsl will appear in the form. set them as visible and as spinner control.
drag a line from the form's out port and add a signal out named "go".
Map is as follows:
num1 <= @num1+1
num2 <= 1
num3 <= if(@num2==1,1,0)
num4 <= if@num3==1,1,0)
Add a gaurd condition to the line @num1<4 and name the event "Next_Event"
double click on num1 to open the properties popup.
For num1 define a custom action named "Next_Event"
For num2 define a custom action named "Pass1"
For num3 define a system action move row - move next
For num4 define a custom action named "pass2"
drag a line from the form and add data store. Create 2 field in it "first" and "second"
set the event to be pass1 and map the value you want from the table to "first".
Create another line from the form to the data store with event pass 2 that maps value to second.
Create a new form with 2 field which default vlaue is the value in the data store.
Points would be awarded to helpful answers.

Sanjyoti.

Excel row height changes when it should not change

I have a client using Office 2010 on a Citrix server. They are using Windows XP Pro SP3 for the desktop and the server is running Windows Server 2003 R2 STD.
I have two users working in a spreadsheet in Excel 2010. The spreadsheet opens fine and they can perform their updates by either adding manually or doing a cut and paste. The problem comes up when all of the sudden a number of rows in the spreadsheet
change height for not reason. The spreadheet has the row height set to 14.5 but for some reason the rows that change height sent the height to 405.9. Usually all the user has to do is go back and reset the row height on these cells and save before they can
go back to making changes.
It's more annoying then anything else so if someone could provide any solutions, it would be greatly apppreciated.

I have been working with Excel for 20years, and have been hit with this resizing of row height and also drawings or shapes, after opening an old XL97-2003 file.
Chad's method below works!
Please try the following to resolve the issue:
1. Boot Excel 2010
2. Open [Excel Options] dialog. ([File]-[Options])
3. Select [Advanced] tab, turn on [Cut, copy and sort inserted objects with their parent cells] option. (In [Cut, copy and paste] section)
*This will not resize rows that are currently set to 409.5 but I would like to know if this keeps rows from doing this in the future.
1) I found that after opening the workbooks the row height and shapes are correct.
2) Save the file, then save as to the new .xlsx format (for a macro free workbook)
3) After reverting to former; turn OFF[Cut, copy and sort inserted objects with their parent cells] option. (In [Cut, copy and paste] section), and then opening the XL97-2003 files, the fault is still there. For the newer xlsx files, though,
the fault has gone.
4) So yes, Chad, it does keep rows from doing this in future, if the newer file format is used. Thanks.
Chad's answer is "the answer"!

Why can't i change row and column height in tables?

a mind-boggling problem to be sure. For some odd reason, I can't use the inspector to type in row/column heights for tables. I can use the up/down arrows, but those only work in increments of 1. I can manually adjust them one by one but as soon as I edit text in a different table cell, I have to start all over again. Does anyone else have this problem?

Hi Gerry & Ric
I had already tried both of your suggestions without any luck but I appreciate the help anyway. I should've been a bit more specific: I can actually type in the column/row height windows, but when I press return or tab, Pages ignores the numbers. I've tried using both the number pad and the regular keyboard numbers and every manner of clicking, enter, tab, control, alt......there must be some setting with my computer that is causing an incompatibility with Pages. Boh!

When I change the row heights in a spreadsheet, then save, close, and open it, the row heights are back to default. How can I prevent this?

One of our reports has lots of text in some rows. I import the data, adjust the row width and ask the text to wrap, which automatically sets the row height appropriately. When I save, close, and open that spreadsheet, the width is still the same and Wrap is still selected, but the rows are only one line high, which means that the report is unreadable and a serious pain to make readable.
I can save it as a PDF, but I'd rather be able to use the Numbers format or Excel and be confident that my recipients can read it.

Hi k,
I'm unable to reproduce the described behaviour.
The document containing the table below has a combination of row heights set manually using teh stepper in the Table Inspector (both 0.76" labeled rows), set manually by dragging the row boundary between row reference tabs (labeled 1/13"), and set automatically by Numbers to fit the content of the remaining cells.
Content in the rows with names beginning E, F, G or H wraps automatically to form two rows in the cell. The rest are forced into two lines using a carriage return character.
All maiintained their row heights through two Saves and reopenings.
Regards,
Barry

Report Generation Toolkit Table Row Height-MS Word

I am having trouble setting the table row height in the report generation toolkit. I can set the column width fine, but the row height seems to remain the same no matter what I set it to. I have attached the VI that generates and formats the table, and the printout it is resulting in. I have also attached the template file I am using.
Any tips to get this to work right? I am trying to make the cells exactly the same height as the text inside.
Solved!

Hi,
So I tried .2 and it didn't work. So I went to Word to manually change it, and it did not work either. There is a selection box in word, for the table properties, that seems to default to the value "at least". When I changed this manually to "exactly" in word, no problem with the .2 manually in Word.
Hopefully this can be set within the template, for all new inserted tables. I'm not sure the report generator VI's expose this property. Well, this is a start for the issue.
Edit ****
You can go into the add table VI and expose the property. See pic. However, you have to decide if you want to "upgrade" this VI permanently to expose this property or make a copy with the property exposed. I haven't messed with the new class reports too much, so not sure of the ins and outs with this.
I think this is the issue with the row size becoming smaller.
