Field alignment

My transaction screen fields are not aligned. I took two fields in a same row giving them different columns but they are not aligned. How can I show them aligned ?
Thanks in advance,
Sujit

What part is not aligned?
If they are in the same column and width, is the label with the same also?

How to set field alignment in a table in jdev 11.1.2.3?

hi,
How to set field alignment in a table in jdev 11.1.2.3?
eg: to diplay a number field in a table as right aligned.
I have tried to set field(amount) VO UI Hint Format Type:Number; Format: 0000.00
and jspx as flowing, but it doesnot work.
Thanks.
bao
<af:column sortProperty="#{bindings.VO1.hints.Amount.name}"
sortable="true"
headerText="#{bindings.VO1.hints.Amount.label}"
id="c44" width="60"
align="center">
<af:inputText value="#{row.bindings.Amount.inputValue}"
label="#{bindings.VO1.hints.Amount.label}"
required="#{bindings.VO1.hints.Amount.mandatory}"
columns="#{bindings.VO1.hints.Amount.displayWidth}"
maximumLength="#{bindings.VO1.hints.Amount.precision}"
shortDesc="#{bindings.VO1.hints.Amount.tooltip}"
id="it58"
secret="false"
inlineStyle="text-decoration:overline;">
<f:validator binding="#{row.bindings.Amount.validator}"/>
</af:inputText>
</af:column>

Works for me:
        <af:column sortProperty="#{bindings.EmployeesView1.hints.Salary.name}" sortable="false"
                   headerText="#{bindings.EmployeesView1.hints.Salary.label}" id="c7" align="right">
          <af:inputText value="#{row.bindings.Salary.inputValue}" label="#{bindings.EmployeesView1.hints.Salary.label}"
                        required="#{bindings.EmployeesView1.hints.Salary.mandatory}"
                        columns="#{bindings.EmployeesView1.hints.Salary.displayWidth}"
                        maximumLength="#{bindings.EmployeesView1.hints.Salary.precision}"
                        shortDesc="#{bindings.EmployeesView1.hints.Salary.tooltip}" id="it6">
            <f:validator binding="#{row.bindings.Salary.validator}"/>
          </af:inputText>
        </af:column>JDeveloper 11.1.2.3
Salary is shown right-aligned.
What happens if you get rid of your inlineStyle on the af:inputText

Field alignment gets locked to top-left for last field on subform

Periodically I experience a problem with the last field on a subform. Whatever field alignment I set using Output Designer, when central pro processes the data the and aligns the data topleft. This is a particular problem when outputing financial data which I need to right align because the number of digits before the decimal point is variable. I usually work around this by adding dummy fields at the end of the subform, but this does not always fix it.
Any ideas as to what causes this? (so that I can avoid it)
Or any software fixes for it?
Are there any tools for examining the content of the .ifd or .mdf files, as this may through light on the cause.
Adobe Central Pro Output Server version = 5.5 (also affects 5.4)
Presentment target = PDF
Windows version = 2000 professional
Many thanks in advance, Stephen

Thank you for the feedback.
I have changed a some of the field positions/widths and changed the alignment from top-right to middle-right and the problem seems to have gone away.
I could not see a way of determining the printable regions of the page. The output I am crfeating is a PDF file.
I am still concerned that I don't understand the problem well enough to avoid it in the future.

Caption and field alignment

Is it possible to have the caption aligned one way and the field aligned another?
I have a text field, and I want the caption to be aligned flush right and the text to be aligned flush left.

Yes that is controlled in the Paragraph palette. It is probably off so you can activate it under the Window menu. You can toggle between the caption and the value by clicking on this button

Field alignment issue on a page

Hi -
I am trying to align the fields on an apex page but not able to find a way.
Basically I have 2 rows of columns shown on an apex page.
First row has 4 fields (Text box items):
And second row has 2 fields (Text box items)
1st row > Name|---------------------------| Address|-----------| Ph1|-------------------| Ph2|-------------------|
2nd row> Indicator|----| Active|------|
So I want the second row fields to be under the first row's first field. I am trying to do that using START_TBL and STOP_TBL but the second field (Active field) from the 2nd row is always showing after the end of the 1st row's first field's (Name field) length on the 2nd row.
Desired:
1st row > Name*|---------------------------|* Address*|-----------|* Ph1*|-------------------|* Ph2*|-------------------|*
2nd row> Indicator*|---|* Active*|----|*
But getting:
1st row > Name*|---------------------------|* Address*|-----------|* Ph1*|-------------------|* Ph2*|-------------------|*
2nd row> Indicator*|---|* Active*|----|*
Please share your expertise.
Thanks.

Thanks so much osgood... a really strange one as those parts of the page are locked out (i.e. controlled by the template only), so to resolve the issue I've created a new page altogether, copied and pasted the index code in, and resaved as the index.html file. It's now working again as desired. Thanks again!

Form fields alignment

Hi
i have a form with multiple input components on the page and each of the components are in it's own line and like it that way for most of them, but there are couple of fields i like to show in one line, what component should i use for this.
if i use <af:panelHorizontal> this line is not aligned properly with the rest of the form fields. if i surround this with <af:panelLabelAndMessage> it looks better except that it showing blank space for label.
Regards
Rao

Use af: panelHorizontal and fine-tune layout using CSS.
ADF Faces page layout properties can be customized using standart CSS elements using inlineStyle attribute

Change field alignment for field type currency / float

Hello Experts.
I have a requirement : I want to align the field in the webUI on the right, not the label.
Actually for the attribute type currency or float, it is at aligned at the right position.
I see the configuration description and the XML file. I try to modify that XML file to add the attrinute ALIGN = "LEFT" for the field
But it is too hard and I want to know if there is another solution that reading/modifying this XML file.
Thanks and regards.

Hi,
I had seen the method get_parameter but how to do this? As I know it, it only change the value returned not any kind of format.
I think the value is correct but the layout of the field is not correct.
I can change the *.htm of the class and put some css code but I think it is not the solution.
Can you help me please? it is urgent.
Thanks and regards

Documaker Field alignment

I am busy developing forms where all the fields have to be centre aligned.
For the fields where I derive the data directly from the XML input, I can easily do this using the JUSTFLD, MODE=C rule. I am struggling to centre align the fields where I use a call to DAL to populate the fields.
The max length of these fields can be anything from 1 - 60 characters, and even though I centre page aligned the field box, it still left aligns the field outputs.
I have tried JUSTFIELD amd JCENTER inside the DAL script but without success.
How do I centre align a field value dynamically for values populated from a DAL script ?

You may have to include an example of your script to help determine the exact cause, because the DAL function JustField() uses the same internal APIs as the rule you have used successfully.
The key to remember is that the JustField function operates at the moment of call. So if your script returns a value to the field in PostEdit that is different than what was there when you called JustField(), you could get unbalanced results.
In a Post edit on a field, all you would need to do is JustField('C') as the last statement in the script. This will center the "current" field.
If on the other hand you are trying to assign values into fields an then justify them from some other script location, you need to include enough parameters to locate the appropriate field. So you might do something like this:
SETFLD("Abc123", "MyField")
JustField('C', , , "MyField")
In this case, you will note that there are two omitted parameters. The second parameter is a horizontal location to center upon and the third is for a character (like decimal) justification. I'm assuming that you are designing your fields in the appropriate location and you just want to center them there.
And by the way JCENTER() would only justify appropriately if you are using a fixed-pitch (like Courier) font. JCENTER simply takes the overall field length and pads the data with spaces so that you are centered in "character length" not "display length". If you are using proportional fonts (where each character is a different width), you will need JUSTFIELD().

Agentry - Field alignment errors in Windows client

I'm running WM6.1 on the 7.03.605 Windows client and I've been unable to find any solution to field values aligning on top while their labels are aligned to the base of the line. This is somewhat noticeable at the default window size and glaringly obvious if the window is maximized on a larger screen such as 1920x1080.
Is there any option other than rebuilding these screens so they have separate label entries floating above the field values?
The screenshot shows how bad this is. I've drawn a red box around two of the fields to show just how much higher they are than their corresponding label.

Hi Chris,
if I remember correctly, the alignment is "correct" for object properties that do not have the "Word Wrap" option checked. A workaround for object properties with "Word Wrap" enabled is the following:
- change the fields object property to :>Main Object>"DummyNoWrap" Property where the DummyNoWrap Property is a String Property that has no "Word Wrap" enabled.
- add an update rule that updates the field with the property you want to display on that field
I do not think this will work on transaction screens, but maybe it covers your problem.

Field alignment problems

I am having trouble getting the "right" alignment where I have multiple items on single row in a Form region.
The first field Is left aligned and the second field right aligned. I want the second field to be placed next to the first field on the left hand side of the region.
What I have is:
Label1 Field 1 Label2 Field2
When what I want is:
Label1 Field 1 Label2 Field2
For the second field I have specified:
Begin On new Line: No
....Field : Yes
ColSpan: 1
Row Span: 1

Hi,
You need to do two things:
1 - Add a new Stop/Start item before the Resolution item
2 - Add a width to the labels that start the region and after each Stop/Start. In these items, in the Label section, add something like the following into the "HTML Table Cell Attributes" setting:
style="width:100px"If there is a nowrap setting already in there, keep at and add the above after it.
This will make the first column 100px wide throughout the page - adjust 100px to whatever is required

Number fields alignment

Hello, I'm using JDev11.1.1.2
My requirement is all number fields in the application to be right aligned. Is there a general way to achieve this ?
Thank you

Hi John,
You can try adding some css yourself:
Add a class to your form field in the fields HTML Form Element CSS Classes attribute, and add a text-allign property for that class in your css file or in your region html header.
For example put 'rightAlignField' in the HTML Form Element CSS Classes attribute and add
<style>
.rightAlignField{ text-align : right; }
</style>
to the form regions html header.

Vincent

Set field alignment

It is currently very difficult to align fields with the fields above.
Will there be a feature to easily align fields, either by "Snap to grid" or manually entering the width of the fields?

I can't speak to upcoming features but we do have an Ideas page where you can vote for existing ideas (feature requests) or add a new idea of your own. http://forums.adobe.com/community/formscentral?view=idea

OAF field alignment

Hi, We are on R12.1.3. We have a requirement to create a custom oaf page with roughly 30 fields. I chose "message component layout" with 3 columns arranged in 10 rows. But what I noticed is the cursor is moving downwards, meaning it is navigating column1 all the way to the field in 10th row and then coming to the first field in 2nd column. But client wants them to be arranged horizontally. So I changed my layout to "rowlayout". so I had to create 10 rowlayouts with each rowlayout having 3 field. This is the way they wanted the navigation. But my issue is, I am not able to align the items in one below the other. In spite of saying "left align", they are not in alignment wrt to the elements in other rows. Can you please help me how I can accomplish this?
Thanks

Sandeep,
    What I noticed is, if the label of the first field in rowlayout1 and first field label of rowlayout2 are not of same size, then they are not aligned. Same is the case when field widths are different... Please see the following
Project ID   12345
Project Name   Abc
where as if they both are of same size then they will be aligned as shown below. The length of the labels Project ID and Project Na are same below.
Project ID   12345
Project Na Abc
I tried to pad blank spaces before or after the label to keep them of same length but it is not working. Please le me know if you can come up with any idea. Thanks.

Field Alignment issue

HI All,
I have a view which is being used at 2 places in the same application.At one place all the fields of that view are in enabled while at other place disabled. if i align the fields at 1 place ,alignment is getting changed at the other place. I think this is because of enabling and disabling the same fields.
Can any one suggest me some work around for this?
Regards,
Lakshmi.

Hi,
For each set of the Input fields are you using the Transparaent containers(TCO)
How are using these TCO. How are you aligning these Input fields.
Are all the Input fields inside One TCO. Have you set the layout for TCO.
For the Root you set as Flow and for the TCO as Matrix itself. In this have the Input fields. for the Labels give as Matrixhead and Input fields as Matrix Data.

Af:query Search Field Alignment

Please find the attached screen shot. How do I align all the field .. I tried 2 options
1. setting control hint display width to 80 for all the fields in VO, but the lovs length gets adjusted based on the content not on the control hint.
2. tried css , set [https://plus.google.com/photos/109667023340649686514/albums/5690475423202585553?authkey=CKGUoJaZt728wAE]
af|query::criteria-column
af|query::criterion
af|query::criterion-label

to text-align: left;
but neither of this two approaches seem to work ...
Is there a way where I can align all the field to a display width, say, 80
thanks

I found a workaround for this
.CustomQueryPanel tr[_rowkey='0'] input{
width: 320px !important;
.CustomQueryPanel tr[_rowkey='1'] input{
width: 320px !important;
.CustomQueryPanel tr[_rowkey='2'] select{
width: 327px !important;
.CustomQueryPanel tr[_rowkey='3'] input{
width: 320px !important;
.CustomQueryPanel tr[_rowkey='4'] select{
width: 327px !important;
.CustomQueryPanel tr[_rowkey='5'] input{
width: 320px !important;
.CustomQueryPanel tr[_rowkey='6'] input{
width: 320px !important;
.CustomQueryPanel tr[_rowkey='7'] select{

.CustomQueryPanel tr[_rowkey='8'] select{
width: 327px !important;
.CustomQueryPanel tr[_rowkey='9'] input{
width: 330px !important;
Found in thread JDev 11g: Width of selectOneChoice & inputLOV in Query Panel
It is working fine for me, if I give af:query the styleclass CustomQueryPanel
