Control footnote column width and placement?

Hello,
My client used dynamic footnotes, which I find frustrating to deal with.
I have a 3-column layout (see attached image) and the footnotes are falling in the column in which the
reference shows up. But I want to have footnotes preferably always fall in the leftmost column
and stretch across at least 2 columns. I feel like I've done this before but don't recall how I controlled them.
Is there any way to do this?
Also, the footnotes seem to be in sort of table-like cells. If I turn on "show frame edges,"
I see blue lines surrounding each footnote. I have paragraph style set to 1p above but that only refers
to the entire block of footnotes. How can I add space between each footnote?
Thank you,
Jane

Hi,
this is HTML matter. AFAIK It isn't possible to set row height. Workaround:
Suppose your first column has name COL01, then edit column attribute HTML Expresion like this: <div style="height:50px; overflow:auto;">#COL01#</div>
Than every row will be at least 50 pixels high, more if cell content in another column will be too long to fit in. But you can do the same thing for all columns and than you will have exactly 50 pixels high rows and scrollbars in every cell with long text.

  • Column widths and gutters

    I would like to have variable column widths and gutters. At present (Acrobat 6 running under XP Prof. SP3) although I can choose the number of columns, and hence the number of gutters, all columns must be the same width and all gutters the same width.

    What does your question have to do with Acrobat? Acrobat is not an editor.

  • Is there any way to make column width and height 0 by using formula?

    Eg:
    =If (column = value) then Column width = 0px and height = 0px

    Hi Riaz,
    Instead of kepping column width and height as 0, you can just hide the particular column by using the same function that you mentioned above, (if column = value) in hide..
    You can just right click on the column->hide->hide if->dimension=value.

  • Prob with fixed column widths and word wrapping in viewer

    i have a report where each record has a very long paragraph of text in it.
    In desktop and plus, the text column is at a fixed width and the text just wraps nicely according to the column width.
    But in Viewer, the column widths do not stay fixed, the text does not wrap, and the long text is displayed in a single line that completely stretches the column width off the page and requires a horizontal scroll bar.
    is there anyway to fix the column width in viewer, have the text naturally wrap, and prevent the column stretching. All word wrapping settings are on, but seem to have no effect. I can't seem to find any solution to this.
    Thanks...

    Hi Pritam,
    Per my understanding that you can't see the vertical scrollbar of the ReportViewer controls 2012 to scroll for the grid rows, but can see the vertical scrollbar of the web application, you also can't fix the headers while scrolling, right?
    I have tested on my local environment and can't reproduce your issue, but you have an alternative way to add some css  to the web form's source code to display the vertical scrollbar.
    Details information below for your reference:
    Please check below properties setting of the reportviewer which control the visibility of the scrollbar:
    AsyncRendering="true"
    SizeToReportContent="false"
    Please check if this problem also occur on other version of IE and other type of browser.
    Please check if you have done correct setting of the Fix data to freeze the table header as the step of below:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb934257(v=sql.100).aspx
    If step1 doesn't work, please click the source of webform.aspx and add below CSS to add the vertical scrollbar manually:
    #ReportViewer1 {
              overflow-y: scroll;
    Run the application you will see it display as below:

  • Applescript/Pages and adjusting column width (and paragraph style)

    I was hoping that some someone might know how to adjust the width of individual columns in Pages using Applescript. It seems like it should be a simple task, and I can adjust the overall width/height of the table, but I haven't found a way to adjust the column width. Alternatively, I could have the program create the table in Numbers and copy/paste it into Pages, but I'd imagine that would get a bit messy and wouldn't allow me to use a hanging indent in the cells (to the best of my knowledge).
    Also, is there a way to adjust the paragraph style used by the text in the table? Otherwise, I could just use a templet and define the the default table style appropriately. (Though not the most elegant solution).
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    (In case it helps, the script I'm working on parses an unformatted inventory and parses it into paragraphs/tables.)

    Try this:
    set tableCount to 0
    --open file to be pased here, excluded for example
    tell application "Pages"
        activate
        set theDoc to (make new document)
        tell theDoc
            --makes paragraph styles used
            make new paragraph style with properties {name:"Folio", font name:"Times New Roman", font size:12, bold:true, alignment:left, space after:5, keep with next paragraph:true, space before:15}
            make new paragraph style with properties {name:"Place", font name:"Times New Roman", font size:12, bold:false, alignment:left, line spacing type:relative, line spacing:100}
            make new paragraph style with properties {name:"Description", font name:"Times New Roman", font size:12, bold:false, italic:true, alignment:left, line spacing type:relative, line spacing:100}
            make new paragraph style with properties {name:"Table", font name:"Times New Roman", font size:12, alignment:left, left indent:0.5, first line indent:0.0}
            --begin repeat, gathers MS info from one doc (unformatted) and writes it into another with formatting, setting variables directly for example

  • Is it possible to have a fixed column width and a URL link?

    I am trying to achieve having a popup link on a column within a SQL report but also have the report column a certain width. I can have either or however not at the same time.
    What I did was created a SQL report, edited a column and gave it a URL redirect (page in application) as normal.
    For the fixed column width, I used:
    <div style="width:250px; height:54px; overflow:hidden" title="#Comments#">#Comments#</div>On Column Formatting / HTML Expression
    And for the popup URL, I used:
    onclick="window.open(this.href,'_blank','resizable=0,scrollbars=0,width=650,height=300,menubar=0,location=0');return false;" title="Comments"On the Column Link / Link Attributes

    Andy thank you for your reply, however I either am not completly understanding or there is a problem elsewhere.

  • Uneven Column Width and Spanning

    So, I would like to create a grid with two columns of different widths. From what I can tell, the only way to do this is to manually adjust column guides on a master page and then flow in my text.
    The only problem is that InDesign creates separate frames for each column instead of a 2-column frame. I can't have any ¶ styles span the columns.
    Does anyone have a creative solution for this? I would really prefer not to use separate text frames any time I want to span columns.
    Thanks,

    Depending on the specific needs of the text flow, you might be able to use some combination of a multiple-column layout, span-column properties, left and right indents, text frame insets, and master-page frames with text wrap properties, so achieve your goal. By "multiple-column layout" I'm thinking of the technique of designing page grids with many columns, and placing page content across one, two, or more columns; in this fantasy, I'm thinking of different span-column properties. For example, with a six-column grid, paragraphs could span one, two, three, four, five or all six, to give the effect of different column widths in the text frame. I've done only the barest minimal experiment; it seems promising. It would take some effort to create, but setting the necessary properties by using styles, the effect could maintain itself without manual intervention, so the development effort would be returned every time you use it.

  • GridControl: Column width and Font Color

    I'm having two problems with the GridControl in JBCL:
    1) I can't set the font color of the text in the gridcontrol. Is
    this possible? I tried setting the foreground color, but that
    didn't work. I'd also like to be able to set the background
    color for the headers.
    2) I have a gridcontrol connected to a queryDataSet. I set the
    column width of the columns in the query data set, and the
    columns in the gridcontrol expand up to about 100pixels. After
    that however, the don't get any larger (even when set to 300). I

  • Table component - column width and background color?

    Is there any way to set the column width on the table component?  And is there any way to set the background color.  I am using Xcelsius 2008.
    Thanks,

    Column width and background can be set in the Excel range and then bind table component to display the range.
    If you change the Column width of background in the Excel range, you need to rebind the display range to update the format.
    Hope this can help!

  • Interactive Report Column Headings and Row Height

    I am using the div style="width:350px;" method to control the width of columns in various interactive reports. That works fine except for the following:
    1. When creating filters, the <div...> stuff shows up along with the actual column heading, thus confusing some end users
    2. Even when I uncheck the "Use same text for single row view" checkbox and then provide a simple single row view label, the <div> stuff still shows up on the single row view
    Does anyone have a better solution?
    Also, does anyone know of a way to limit the row height within an interactive report row? I have some columns of data that contain a large amount of HTML data and I'd like to be able to limit the number of rows that show on the report.
    Is Oracle planning to provide some better control over the Interactive Report columns in another version? The Interactive Report is such a huge improvement in usability in APEX - it would be great to take it to another level by providing some better control over column width and row height.

    Dale,
    Unfortunately we don't have much we can use to do what you would like. I would have said it's impossible until version 4 but you could actually do something similar to what Roel has done. His trick is in the edit button. He changed the edit button to use an "onload" call to a JavaScript process. You could do the same but call a process that goes across the rows and styles each column. Now because you don't have a way to identify the column (can't use the order because the end user could change it) you'll have to write the code to look at the top row first and then style the appropriate column. As far as I can tell, this would be quite difficult and inefficient. Having said that if you need it that bad and would like some help with it, put up an example application on apex.oracle.com and provide the workspace/username/password and I'll take a look.

  • Column Widths of existing Report

    Hi, I'm wondering how you can modify the width of a particular column in a report. One of the columns has a lot of information, and I want this column to take up about half the page. I look in the Application Builder to see the properties of that column, but don't see anywhere to set the width.
    Also is there a way to get a record to display over 2 rows, so that it doesn't scroll off the screen?
    Thanks in advance, Sarah

    as i explained briefly in How to change column width and other attributes , report templates are the best way to control the look/feel of our outputted result sets. more specifically, that's probably the best place to specify attributes such as wrapping and column widths. when doing this type of html formatting, though, you also need to be aware of the rest of the html that's on your page. so if a column in your report is set to be 500px wide but the region template for your report region stores its content in a table with a fixed width of 200px, i'm pretty sure the second setting overrides the first. i'd approach it this way: set up your report template to do what you want (wrap some rows and maybe fix some column widths). then see if your page renders correctly. if it doesn't do what you want, check the region template to see if that's interfering. if that's not it, then check the page template. there's a pretty good chance that just changing your report template will do the trick, but it helps to be aware of the html around it.
    hope this helps,

  • How can I modify column width in a spreadsheet report without using an Excel template

    I currently use the LabVIEW Report Generation toolkit in LabVIEW 2011SP1 to create simple spreadsheet reports that I can build/print without having Microsoft Office products installed.  I really like being able to do this, and it allows me to generate nice on-demand data reports - I'm also not tied to having Office installed on the system I'm using, so this works on just about any test fixture I can install the software on.  
    I recently have a requirement that I must have variable-length columns in my report.  I currently use the VI "Append Text Table to Report" in order to create a text table, but the column width requirement is that all columns must be equal width UNLESS I use an Excel Template file to define my column widths.  
    My questions are:
    Is it possible to create a text table and define per-column widths without using an Excel Template?  If so, how?  My report mainly has a lot of small numerical values for the columns, but some columns contain system names or status messages - I really hate the longer text blocks wrapping and taking up so much real-estate when if I could control the column widths I can get all my data on a single line.
    I'll admit I haven't tried this myself yet, but if I use an Excel Template will that require me to have Excel installed on the PC in order to print/generate reports?
    Is there a recommended way (with an example) of generating a text table in a report with or without using the "Append Text Table to Report" VI that allows me to have custom column widths that doesn't require me to manually build a custom print page?  If I do have to create a custom print page, what would be the most straightforward approach?
    Thanks!
    -Danny

    Sure, I'll provide a pared down example that demonstrates my use-case:
    I have a control to the VI that takes in a 2D array of strings representing the data I want printed in a table.  I am generating a standard report, adding a table to the report, and printing it.  The first VI is "New Report.vi", the second VI is "Append Table to Report.vi", and the third is "Print Report.vi", all found standard in the Report Generation palette.
    Note that the "Append Table to Report.vi" has an input parameter "Column Width" with a default value of (1).  This input parameter is a single input parameter, which defines the column widths of ALL the columns in my table - hence, with the VI the way it is, all my columns will be 1 inch wide.  
    I find myself needing to be able to define per-column widths, not just a single global column width parameter.  
    The only way I have found to do this is by using an Excel template file.  The "New Report.vi" takes in a "template" parameter, and if used, the report generation toolkit can be set to ignore the "Column Width" input parameter on the "Append Table to Report.vi" by setting the width value to -1.  Instead it will launch Excel, open the template file provided, build the table using the template, will close Excel, and will attach the generated table to the report.  However, I have a strict requirement that Microsoft Office NOT be required to be installed on the computer.  
    So, without using Excel, is there a way to generate a table in a report and define the width of each column individually?

  • Setting column widths using CSS...

    Hi guys,
    I am using a simple 2 column table to layout pictures and
    text. The problem I'm having is that I'm not sure how to set the
    column widths and as such when you flick from page to page the
    column widths and don't stay exactly equal to each other as I'd
    like them too.
    This can clearly be seen through clicking and comparing the

    Hi James,
    I see the scrollbars now but now I also see what you mean :(
    I think the easy fix is to create a class and apply it to
    every single
    td that has the text/image/heading to give them a fixed
    width! (Maybe
    only applying it to the top td's would do the trick... I'm
    really no
    good with tables)
    Hope it made some sense
