Field labels left-justified

Hello,
What is the easiest way to make all field labels left-justified instead of right-justified? I want to change this only for a certain business role, but for all views if possible.
Thanks in advance
Roland

Found it myself: Described in SAP note 1151944 (see PDF)

How to make JLabel Left Justified in Gridbag Layout?

Hi Govind here I am using Gridbag layout and having Labels and TextBox . i want my All my Labels Left Justified (Currently they are RightJustified),I tried JLabel.Left but not working so any help most welcome............
JLabel startDateLabel      = new JLabel("STARTDATE ",JLabel.LEFT);
          startDateLabel.setBorder( border );
          //set the position of the label
          gbc.fill = GridBagConstraints.NONE;
          usingGBC(startDateLabel,gbc,3,0,1,1.0);
               //text field for start dat
txtStartDate                = new JTextField();
          txtStartDate.setMinimumSize(minSize);
          txtStartDate.setPreferredSize( longField );
          txtStartDate.setEnabled( true);
          txtStartDate.setEditable(false);
          txtStartDate.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
          gbc.fill = GridBagConstraints.HORIZONTAL;
          usingGBC(txtStartDate,gbc,4,0,2,1.0);
     here usingGBC is method as follows
protected void usingGBC(Component com,GridBagConstraints gbc,int gx,int gy,int gwidth,double wx)
               gbc.gridx = gx;
               gbc.gridy = gy;
               gbc.gridwidth = gwidth;
               gbc.weightx = wx;
               add(com,gbc);

It seems you set the fill of the GridBagConstraints after you add the label. Either specify HORIZONTAL fill before adding the label or specify alignment for the constraints.

one way is define a paragraph format P1 and in that attributes,you can give LEFT justified(by creating TABS).
and give that paragraph format in the script editor.
P1 ,,text

Left justify text in number field

Hi,
I would be grateful if someone could tell me how to display the text (returned from a loop) in a number field
so that it is left justified - also where would it have to be set?
The 'justification' setting when set to 'Left' doesn't achieve this.
Any help would be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Tom

First i dont think so in Number field u can set TEXT
Create a field with CHAR type and u can put alpha numeric text in it
set the justification Property of Text item to Start or Left

Ability to left justify dollar sign in report

All,
In my report, I have a field with a data format set to Currency. This, of course, places a '$' in front of the value, such as $1,234,567.
However, I have a requirement to left justify the '$' in the report so that value is displayed as
$ 1,234,567
How can this be accomplished?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.You can acheive this by calling CSS class in the column properties. Refer to this link to get some ideas and how to get started ( http://obiee101.blogspot.com/2008/09/obiee-custom-css-style-class.html )

How to use left-justified with Move command??

Hi,
I have a field BKPF-XBLNR which I have to download to an final output table. I am using the command "Move"...
Move T_BKPF-XBLNR to T_OUTPUT-XBLNR.
My problem is that for some records this field is a combination of characters and numbers ... but some are purely numbers ... The records which are a combination of character & numbers are left justified where as the numeric one's are getting right justified once I get the output in the excel sheet ... How do I make these numeric ones left justified ... ??
Thank You,
SB.

You can use this:
shift T_BKPF-XBLNR left deleting leading space.
Move T_BKPF-XBLNR to T_OUTPUT-XBLNR.
if it does not work then
data : temp_xblnr type char16.
Move T_BKPF-XBLNR to temp_XBLNR.
shift temp_XBLNR left deleting leading space.
Move temp_XBLNR to T_OUTPUT-XBLNR.
I am sure it will work.

Message Mapping using Left justified, right blank/space filled

Hi,
My Interface is outbound Interface.
Suppose source field named 'Filename' is mapped with Target field named 'Filename'.Condition is AS IS(Left justified, right blank/space filled).
How should i do this mapping?

Hi Sanghamitra Duttagupta,
                                            you can try this UDF below
public static String fieldJustified(String s)
          try
               final int fieldLength=20;
               char filler=' ';
               s=s.trim();
               int l=s.length();
               while(l<fieldLength)
                    s=s+filler;
                    l++;
          catch(Exception e)
               return s;
          return s;
Please reset the value of the variable "fieldLength", in code above to the field length as per your need. The right side will be filled with extra spaces since value of "filler" variable is ' '. you can set this to any character of your choice so that total field length is equal to value of variable "fieldLength" (which is 20 here).
so if input is "        hi"
output           "hi                  "
regards
Anupam

How to Left Justified Mapping

Hi All,
I have a requirement where in my source structure has a field which is right justified, I need to convert it to a Left justified value.
Is there any predefined function in XI for doing this.
Please help.
Thanks,
Vishal.

Thanks all, I have used Trim function

Left-justify number in alv

Hi all,
I' using alv and tried to left justify the numbers.
The problem is when the number is negative - the number is justified to the left but the minus sign is justified to the right.
thanks,
Hagit

HI,
IF you are not showing any subtotals/totals on the Amount field then take the char field of same length of the amount field in the internal table instead of Amount field. Use this Char field in the ALV for display.
Now justification works as per your requirement. IF you take the amount/currency field the sign will displayed at the last position of the field length.
ex : Amount of length 15(2) then value will be displayed as 12,345.00- if you use the Left justification then it will display as 12,340.00     -
Instead if you take as char then it will display as 12,340.00 - with left justification
Or
try this way to get the sign in first position
DATA    L_AMT    TYPE CHAR16.
WRITE ITAB-AMOUNT TO L_AMT CURRENCY <Currency>.
IF ITAB-AMOUNT < 0.
    SHIFT L_AMT BY 1 PLACES RIGHT CIRCULAR.
ENDIF.
The data will be displayed as -12,340.00

Data Merge: Field Label control

Hello -
I am having a good time with DataMerge, except for one thing.
I am creating a document with multiple records per page.
That's fine - I understand how to do this.
However, I would like to have the field labels only appear ONCE per page - ie, at the extreme left
Right now, the field labels appear repeatedly, for each record.
Is there a way to put them in a margin, or another layer or something????
If this cannot be done by InDesign's merge, do you know of any alternative way to do this, or if InData can do it?
Thank you -
Marion

Very very clever -
and easy, although it would be great if I could place them on the master before the merge in a separate layer, and disable that layer prior to merging, and enable it after merge.
Thank you Peter.

Excel output Left justified using OLE

Hi,
Can anyone please let me know how to align all the cells in the excel sheet as LEFT JUSTIFIED using OLE? I have few numeric values and by default it will be on the right side, i want to make it left justified.
Edited by: Pradeep Kumar on Jan 19, 2011 1:36 PM

Its obvoius that you will always find numeric values of right aligned.
I had faced a similar kind of issue while downloading PSTLZ US Postal Codes. You can try this way:
Place a apostrophe to the field you need to be left aligned
' ' ' '           " This defines your apostrophe
You can check this in excel. Just place a equal sign and apostrophe infront of the value and press enter. The value will be left aligned.
Try the same thing in your code.
It was a very old change for me. Trying to get some sample code snippet for referance.
Here it goes:
CONSTANTS: c_prefix VALUE '='.
    CONSTANTS: c1_prefix VALUE ' " '.
    CONCATENATE c_prefix
               c1_prefix
               i_lfa1-pstlz
               INTO i_lfa1-pstlz
~ Last edited for adding the code snippet

Displaying left justified readonly text

Anyone have any ideas as to how we can display readonly text left justified?
Form doesn't cut it because everything is centered, and I don't need labels to display my data.
TextBox doesn't cut it, because I don't want the data to be editable.
Canvas... Man talk about a head ache. First there is NO title bar (like the rest of the application, so I would need to draw one first), and then I would have to implement all of the line wrapping, and scrolling etc.
I even thought about alert, but feel it would probably look ghetto.
I just want a textbox that isn't editable. Anyone have any thoughts

Why do you blame the Form? It has alignment options and i guess default is left-aligned (why centered???) Then use String to append the string to a form.
String s = new String("Blablabla");
myform.append(s);
I have already used this approach to display readonly text. The one thing i don't like is that the form scrolls the text screen by screen, not line by line. Does somebody knows how to scroll line by line?

Preview app: Add text annotation with left justify?

I'm using the Preview app to insert text into some PDF files. I can use the Annotate feature to create a text box in the area I need it and adjust the font, color, size, etc. The only thing I can't seem to do is set the justification to Left Justify. It will show text as center justify - anyone know how to change this?

I can find out what the defaults are with:
defaults read com.apple.preview
There are many properties but a TextAligment property is not one of them.
I tried below but they do not work.
defaults write com.apple.preview NSTextAlignment 0
defaults write com.apple.preview PVAnnotationTextAlignment 0
NB: 0 means left alignment
Any idea?
Maybe Apple has to create an text alignment feature for the GUI or provide the property that we can set it from Terminal.
