Continuous text in 2 rows fu00FCr advertisement column

Hello,
I'am lookiing for a possibility to create a pdf-form with continuous text in 2 rows for advertisement columns.
Maybe someone know a solution?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Sanjeev,
thanks for the answer. It's ok by interaktive forms. But I need a solution for a pdf-form, where I can use the transaction 'SO10' or rather I want use 1 text block (SO10) for 2 ( or perhaps 1) fields. Perhaps it is possible 1 textfield und 2 rows or I should create a table?!
Generally I must create an advertising copy in 2 rows for a pdf-form.
Thanks very much for the first answers, it was very helpful!
Perhaps you have an other good idea?
Best regards!

How can I continue text into column on next page in the new Pages?

In the previous version of Pages if your text exceeded the length of the column, there was a little icon to the right of the column where you could click to have the remaining text continue to another column on another page. I don't see any option to continue the text once you've run out of space. How can this be done in the new verio

How do I read text from specific rows and columns in a tree structure?

How do I read text from specific rows and columns in a tree structure? In a table you can specify the cell to read from but I have not been able to figure out how to do this with a tree structure.

You need to set two properties to activate the correct cell and then you can read it's string property.
The positioning properties are the "ActiveItemTag" and
"ActiveColNum" properties. With them you select the tree item by it's tag and the active column. The string can then be read from the "Cell String" property.

Title/Heading/Row-Align Multi-Column Tables

File under: Frame Annoyances, with a limited hacky work-around
In the two-column format we commonly work in, we often need a table that is column-wide, but may flow into multiple colums.
The problem is that the continuation heading (and TableTitle, if used), never align with the starting heading/title. This is because the continuations start at top of column, whereas the table itself starts (by "Anywhere" default) below the anchor line (presumed to be "In Column" for this discussion)..
OK, what if we change Table > Table Designer [Basic] Start to:
Top of Column: Oops, that becomes top of next column, leaving the anchor text column-widowed (but it gave me an idea).
Top of Page: Oops, that becomes top of next page, leaving the anchor text page-widowed.
Float: No effect
OK, what if we change the anchor text Format > Paragraph > Para Designer [Pagination] Format to:
[Pagination] Across All Columns (AAC): Oops, table appears only in left column on all pages, or;
[Basic] Space & Line Spacing, including negative values, appears to have no effect. Using a tiny font only minimizes the problem, and doesn't cure it.
I thought I had figured out how to solve this at one time, but could not recall it. I'm posting this in part to solicit some simpler solution. Web searching found only one solid candidate solution, and it was, of course, 404. Perhaps Frame versions later than the FM7/Win and FM7.1/Unix that I routinely use have enhancements to address this.
We normally just sidestep the problem by using an AAC format and a table that spans the page, with a fake center gutter, simulating a multi-column flow. But in a recent case, I wanted a real single-column-wide table of variable length (due to conditional rows and expected future growth), but I wanted the headings to align across columns. The table did fit on a single page, which is a limitation of the following hack.
Hack: This example presumes a normal 2-column page text frame that is 7.5in wide with a 0.24in gutter (3.63in columns), and table that needs no more than one page. It works for 3- and 4-column layouts as well.
Use an AAC anchored frame text line.
Create a full page width (7.5in) anchored frame (which can be Below, Top of Col, as desired).
Create a text frame inside the anchored frame. This frame is:
one more than your standard page (3-column for this example)
Same gutter size (0.24in for this example).
Initially draw the text frame to fit inside the the anchored frame, so you can easily grab it.
Make sure the default (anchored table) paragraph format of the first column is "In Column".
Use Graphics > Object Properties to adjust the inside text frame:
Set Width: to your standard text frame total width plus 1 column and 1 gutter (11.37in for this example).
Set Offsets: to 0 and 0 (this will push the rightmost column out of sight for the moment).
Insert your table at the anchored table text of the inside text frame.
In Table Designer, set Start: to Top of Column (this pushes the start of table to column 2).
Select the internal text frame again.
Set Offset From: Left: to negative one column + one gutter (-3.87in for this example).
The table now appears to start in page column one, and flows to additional columns with heading alignment.
This worked perfectly for my recent requirement. In fact, I used a 3-column layout (4 actual) for the text frame inside the anchored frame. Some math is required, sorry .

I'm not sure if I followed that correctly, but if I read it right, you
have a single-column table that spans multiple columns, and the issue is
that the first column does not butt up against the top of the text
frame, while the additional columns do. You want the table in all
columns to butt up against the top of the text frame so that they are even.
If that is the case, the solution is this:
1. Create a paragraph format called "TableAnchor" in the Paragraph
Designer. Assign it with a negative Space Below of -12.0 pt, "Fixed"
line spacing, "Start Anywhere.," "In Column." Assign the font size as
12.0 pt.
2. Create your table format. Give it a Space Above of 12.0 pt.
3. Then, always insert your table into its own, empty TableAnchor
paragraph. You will get the alignment you seek.
NOTES: Anywhere I said "12.0 pt," you can use a different font size-- as
long as you use the same number in each place. You may also want to
create a TableAnchorAAC paragraph format, which is identical except for
the Across All Columns setting, to hold tables that span multiple columns.
I hope I understood the question correctly and was of help.

[url http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/table.html#editrender]Using Editors and Renderers
You will need to create a custom renderer to display both an image and text. Renderers are assigned to a column. If you require different renderers for a given row in a column then you will need to override the getCellRenderer(...) method to return a renderer for the specific row.

Auto Truncat of text in table row.

Is there any way to truncate the text displayed in the table row. I need to auto truncate the text in case text does not fit in the row with current column height.

Hi Kevin,
I am also facing the same situation. I want to display teh text with truncated to 30 characters only. I identified the outputTexta nd added the truncateAt attribute and set it to 30. but it doesn't seem to work. Moreover the line - truncateAt="30" is underlined with orange squiggly lines indicating that there is some error and when I mouse over it , it says that this attribute is not supported when the component is inside of a hierarchyViewer component.
Any pointers?
Thanks,

If myText.text == any value in a datagrid column

Hey guys, in a simple form, I am trying to achieve what's in my title.
I have a text box in which you type in a value (number).
I have a submit button which inserts the value into my data-grid which is populated by a data provider to display that information (ZendAMF).
For my submit button function I need it to loop through all the values(rows) in a column (my dataprovider) of my data-grid to check if my text box value is equal to any of the data in the rows for that column.
I found a function on another forum that should help me achieve this but I still cannot get it to work as I don't think I'm using the function correctly. Note the function is called "findItem()"
Here is my example code:
//I have a datagrid
<mx:DataGrid id="myDataGrid" dataProvider="amfcall.getData.lastResult}">
         <mx:columns>
            <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="MyHeading" dataField="myDataField"/>
         </mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>
//I have a form for adding data into the datagrid
<mx:Form id="addData">
    <mx:FormItem>
        <mx:TextInput id="myText"/>
    </mx:FormItem>
</mx:Form>
//I have a button to submit the form data by calling a function
<mx:Button label="Add" id="addData" click="findItem()"/>
//I have the function to find any item in the datagrid column that is equal to the text input in the form. This is what I can't code correctly.
public function findItem(myDataGrid.dataProvider, myDataField:String, myText.text):Boolean
     for each(var item:Object in myDataGrid.dataProvider)
          if(item[myDataField] == myText.text)
            return true;
     return false;
So I don't think I'm correctly typing the first line of the 'findItem' function as I'm currently receiving [I]1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before dot.[/I] for this line [I]public function findItem(myDataGrid.dataProvider, myDataField:String, myText.text):Boolean [/I]
Also, the error does not change if I strict type those things to ':Object' etc.
I may just be using the function totally wrong, can anyone hlpe me out?

Hard to tell what’s going on from the information you are providing; but just looking at the first line of your sample code:
Have you checked in the debugger to see what your dataProvider looks like?
You want a resultHandler to set some kind of list – let’s say a previously declared AC, which then becomes your dataProvider for the DataGrid. Something like:
private function amfCallResultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void{
      Var someVar:ArrayCollection = event.result as ArrayCollection;
      blah blah blah;
      myDataProvider = someVar;

Can not get text selection cursor to change to column selection cursor

Hi, Thank You for any time and help .
I'm new to InDesign, and I'm hoping to use the new feature of moving columns / rows.
But, I can not get the text cursor to change into the column or row selection cursor.
I am able to get the resize cursor, or use the ctrl+3 shortcut to select the entire column,
but I can not get the downward pointing arrow cursor to select the column, and/or move it.
Sometimes the row selection cursor will appear, and some rows can be moved, but I have been unable to move the columns.
Thanks again, all my best

Thank You Sumit !
That does appear to work, but not in all cases?
Example: 9/12/2014 10:44:14 AM - YouTube <--quick vid capture of issue.
I am able to select and move columns and rows, but columns appear to need a 'clean' column to work / move?
Thanks again, I sincerely appreciate it!

Adding Specific columns of dynamic internal table row into another column

Hi Gurus,
I need to add few columns of a dynamic internal table row into another column:

Hi,
If you really want to have a dynamic table, then you will have to find a way to generate a whole new table, and then copy the data from the old table to the new one. There is no way to modify a type during runtime in ABAP.

Table Rendering - Row level vs Column level

Normally renderers are specified for a given class of data or column of data.
So, how would you handle rendering requirements that are row or table dependent? For example, how do I:
a) color alternate lines in a table
b) change the border of the selected cell
Traditional Approach
Most answers in the forum would be something like "use a custom render". Sounds great, but what does it really mean? If all your data is displayed as a String then it really isn't too difficult to create a single renderer with the required logic and add it to the table as the default renderer.
However, what if you table contains, String's, Dates, Integer's, Double's and Boolean's and you want your cell to retain the default formatting of each data type in addition to the above requirement? Now you have two options:
a) render by class (multiple renderers). Each renderer would need to implement the default "formatting" of the data (dates: dd-MMM-yyy, numbers: right justified, etc) in addition to the "row/table" rendering requirements. So the answer really becomes "use five custom renderers". Now the "row/table" rendering code is found in 5 classes. Of course you could always move the "row/table" rendering code up to a common base class.
b) render by table (single renderer). A single custom renderer would be created and would need to implement the default "formatting" for all data types in the table, in addition to the "row/table" rendering. The benefit is that all the rendering code is in one class. An example solution is include for this approach.
Alternative Approach
I recently came across an approach where the "formatting" of the data is still done by the default renderers and the "row/table" rendering is done at the table level by overriding the prepareRenderer() method. This approach is much simpler, but the rendering is done in two different places. Is this a problem?
So, my question is which approach do you prefer:
a) Traditional Approach - multiple renderers
b) Triditional Approach - single renderer
c) Alternative Approach
Me, I like the alternative approach, but I'm more of a problem solver than I am a designer, so I don't know how the solution fits in a large scale application.
Hopefully your response will consider:
a) OO design principles
b) class reusability
c) class maintenance
d) anything else you can think of

}Before you make your final decision. What changes would be required for each solution in the following "what if " scenarios:
a) what if, you added a Boolean column to the table
b) what if, you added a second Double column to the table which should be formatted as a currency (ie. 1,234.5 --> $1,234.50).
Here is an example of a currency renderer:
class CurrencyRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer
     private NumberFormat formatter;
     public CurrencyRenderer()
          super();
          formatter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
          setHorizontalAlignment( SwingConstants.RIGHT );
     public void setValue(Object value)
          if ((value != null) && (value instanceof Number))
               value = formatter.format(value);
          super.setValue(value);
}

}Boolean values are problematical since JCheckBox does seem to like borders, using a panel as I did in the Etched renderer seems to work. This solution need a little more work, this is submitted as a prototype

Displaying jtable as rows instead of columns

This may be really simple, but I can't figure it out. I want to display information in a JTable as rows instead of columns. Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance,
m

Check here:
http://www2.gol.com/users/tame/swing/examples/SwingExam
les.html
They may well have what you want, if not they will
probably have some ideas you can use.There's always the swing tutorial, also. I learned JTables from the tutorial at http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/table.html and it gave me a lot of good ideas and points to start from.
You could probably create your own cell renderer (or use the header renderer) and set the first column to use that to display their text.

Multi selection N rows and N Columns

Option 3 signal in and out.
1. From table1 drag a line and select Signal Out.
2. Select the fields you want and click ok.
In this example will use:
field name x data type number
                y data type date
                z data type text.
3. Add a submit button to the table.
   Right Click on table and select create tool bar.
- Click on plus sign to add a button.
- Click Change button action to system action.
- Change action name to a desired name.
Click on the line that connect the signal out to the table and change the event name to submit.
4. Click on Compose and drag a signal in to the story board.
5. Connect the Signal in to the second Web service.
6. <b>Change the Signal in name to much the signal out name</b>
7. Add fields to the signal in:
Field name x data type number
                y data type date
                z data type text.
8. Click on the line that connect the Signal in to the second web service and map the fields.
9. Add a table view to the Second web service.
Deploy.
For me it worked only when I have changes the Capacity of the first web service.
If you need the GML file with the web services I used please email me at

Print Row Numbers and Column Letters

How do you tell Numbers to print the Row numbers and Column letters? This was very simple in Appleworks (print dialog box had that option). Can't find it in Numbers though.

Here is a script doing all the job for us.
Just select one or several cells in a table and run the script.
It duplicates it, add an header row, an header column, insert the needed labels and fill the other cells with a formula grabbing the contents of the original table.
--[SCRIPT build a table with headers]
Enregistrer len tant que Script: build a table with headers.scpt
déplacer le fichier créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
Selectionner une cellule dans la table à dupliquer
menu Scripts > Numbers > build a table with headers
Le script duplique la table et crée des en-têtes de lignes et colonnes.
--=====
L'aide du Finder explique:
L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
+++++++
Save the script as Script: build a table with headers.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
Select a range of cells in the table to 'duplicate'
menu Scripts > Numbers > build a table with headers
The script duplicate the table and inserts columns/rows headers.
--=====
The Finder's Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the "Show Script Menu in menu bar" checkbox.

How to transpose rows into multiple columns using pivot table

I have 1 row containing 12 columns with value "JAN", "FEB", "MAR", "J-1","F-1","M-1","J-2","F-2","M-2","J-3","F-3","M-3"
I want to display as
JAN J-1 F-1 M-1
FEB J-2 F-2 M-2
MAR J-3 F-3 M-3
How do I achieve the above?

Today you have only 3 months JAN, FEB, MAR. Is it always the same number of columns. What if there are more months added to this row?
Is your data really coming from relational source or some sort of text file?
There is a better way to do this in narrative view using HTML if your requirement is just to show them in multiple rows and do some calculations.
Go to Narrative View;
In prefix, use <html> <table>
In 'Narrative' text box add something like this
<tr> <td> @1 </td> <td> @4 </td> <td> @7 </td> </tr>
<tr> <td> @2 </td> <td> @5 </td> <td> @8 </td> </tr>
<tr> <td> @3 </td> <td> @6 </td> <td> @9 </td> </tr>
In Suffix, use </table> </html>
You can also add simple calculations like sum etc at the very bottom of these rows as grand totals.

Master-detail: one detail row with multiple columns

Hi All,
I have a normal master-detail situation in the databse, in the form however all detail rows should be displayed in one single row, using more columns. The number of details are limited, so I can use a predefined number of text-items.
Any ideas on how to implement this?
Regards,
Michiel

create a function that returns your details. e.g. :
function get_detail (P_PK, P_rownum) ...
let's use the example dept and emp. Your master is dept. Your detail is emp. deptno is the PK for the master table.
you have in your form multi-records of dept and maybe 5 items for employees. The name of the text-items TI_data_1 .. TI_data_5. In the post-query-trigger you code :
:DEPT.TI_data_1 := get_detail (:DEPT.DEPTNO, 1);
:DEPT.TI_data_2 := get_detail (:DEPT.DEPTNO, 2);
if you need more columns create a loop and use the built-in COPY for assigning the detail-values to the text-items.
the get_detail e.g. is a select-statement:
SELECT ENAME
FROM EMP
WHERE DEPTNO = P_PK
AND rownum = P_rownum
ORDER BY EMPNO
try it
