Field Length too big to display

Hi
We have a scenario where the wrong unit of measure was used and resulted in numbers that were too big to display on deliveries and reports eg 555, 000, 000, 000, 000.00. We are now changing the UOM for the affected PNs but wondered if anybody has any other solutions on how SAP can cope with displaying fields that are too large for its defined length for all the old deliveries created previously. Currently these hit run time display errors. We have already extended the field length once but need a more robust solution in case there are any more materials like this.
Thanks

Extending the field length would not make the error going away. Instead it makes it easier for the user to enter wrong units and conversions. As SAP will less often dump, you will encounter your errors much later than now.
analyse your materials and correct the wrong entries, conversions to alternative units are stored in table MARM

Too big panel on a scrollpane

hello!
i create a panel with several small panels on it, so it is too big to display in my window. therefore i want to have it a scrollpane. this way:
JPanel jp = new JPanel();
        jp.setLayout(new BoxLayout(jp,BoxLayout.Y_AXIS));
        for(int p=1;p<12;p++){
         posten rlist1 = new posten(p); // "posten" is a small panel
         jp.add(rlist1);
        JScrollPane sp =new JScrollPane();
        sp.setViewportView(jp);
        jPanel10.add(sp);jpanel10 has the scrolls on it, to scroll jp.. but the panel jp which is too big, laps over at top and bottom.
hard to explain perhaps, here is a picture:
http://www.cds-server.de/pub/jpanel.jpg
what can i do to make it hide the too big parts?

ok, it took me the hole day to find out that to reproduce this behavior it is necessary
to have the underlaying panel with "free design",
the next panel is with boxlayout . and there is the mess.
therefore the code is not very short, more long, sorry for that,
but it is the shortest way to show my problem:

         jp.add(rlist1);

Display is too big using my apple TV first generation

The display is too big for my screen. For instance I can't see the left most column of the keyboard.

Check you TV aspect ratio or zoom settings via the TV remote.

Display is too big, can't see the menu bar.

I have a 32" tv that i connected it to my mac pro. I see te display, but it is too big. I can't see the menu bar. I've tried changing the resolution, holding control and scrolling, and changing the display size on the tv settings. Any suggestions?

If there are no size settings on the TV that work (some TVs don't have the correct settings) see if there are Overscan or Underscan settings in the Mac's Displays system preference.

A document page opens that is too big for the display and runs off the end of the monitor

How do you fix a problem where document pages open that are too big for the display and runs off the end of the monitor? The borders are off the monitor so there is no window edge to grab and adjust.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Display is too big

When I came in the plug on my monitor was loose and the screen was getting no power. I got the plug to power the monitor, but now the display is larger than before. Whereas a website used to fit on the screen, now it is too big and I have to scroll over to read the whole page and get the tool bar. Zoom was not activated and is set at the lowest level. How can I get the computer to go back to its compact display?

Just out of curiosity....
Did you ever figure this out?
I am having a similar problem all of a sudden....
(My daughter played a game & she must have changed my settings somehow because everything on my computer is now huge! I really have no clue how to reset it, either....)

Display too big!

Display prob: Suddenly the display (menus, etc.) is magnified so much I can't see the whole screen, too big to be able to scroll side to side, can't un-zoom. Assume I'm doing something to make it happen. Any ideas to prevent? or to fix short of powering off? Thx!

Thank you! Didn't know about the 3-finger trick! Now that I know, I'm leaving Zoom on in Settings-Accessibility. (Couldn't get to that in menu while it was so big.)
Thanks to all who replied.

My icons are big and display too big for screen. help..

NB305 first time setup display too big for screen

I just bought an NB305-310 netbook (two, actually, and the first one had no trouble). It came loaded with Windows XP. When I turned it on I wasn't able to set it up right away, when I came back to it, I found the display of the welcome screens and the setup process assistant is too big for the screen, as if it thinks it has to fill a 15" or 17" screen instead of 10". So I can't see to click on the "I agree" box or the "Next" button etc., so can't proceed through the setup.
I already tried restarting it a couple times (by holding down the power key, since Control-Alt-Delete didn't do anything). I also tried using the function key with various keys that looked like they might affect display size but no change. Even the volume function keys didn't change the volume of the setup background music that plays.
How can I fix this?
Thank you!

Try this. Press Alt + Spacebar to open the control menu (which may be off the screen) at the top-left of a window.
Then press M (for Move).
That will enable you to move the window using the arrow keys.
When you get the chance, you'll want to go here and reset the screen resolution to 1024 x 600.

"Length is too big" IOException when using OpenSSL key/certs

Using WLS 5.1, SP6, Solaris
Hello one and all:
I am trying to test WLS with SSL. I am using the OpenSSL package to act as my
own CA and generate and sign my own server certs. I don't have any problem
with this part.
However, when I try to use my private key with WLS, I get this
error upon startup:

Configuration Problem with SSL server encryption Key
(<path-to-key hidden for publication --scott>),
java.io.IOException: Length is too big: takes 56 bytesI have read many messages on this group that indicate this same
problem. Some of the suggestions included checking the formatting

I even tried the OpenSSL "asn1-kludge" option. It didn't work
either.
So, I hope to hear from someone who has successfully used OpenSSL
keys and certs with WLS.
Thanks,

Hi.
I had the same problem when i specified a cakey.pem file that was encrypted. For
some reason, WLS doesnt seem to support a scheme where it prompts for a password
to use for decryption of the private key. Try to decrypt the private key:
openssl rsa -in cakey.pem -out ca_unsafe.pem and deploy this certificate instead,
then it will work ;-)

Desktop is too big for the display

Some how this morning while on my Mac a display setting or something was changed. If your on the desktop, with all windows closed, the background, icons, dock.....everything is too big for the display. If you move the cursor all the way to left it will 'slide' the desktop in that direction. Move it all the way to the right edge of the display and it 'slides' the desktop to the right until you reach the edge. Also the same for the up or down directions.
At first I thought it had something to do with the multi-touch track pad, but I don't think so. I have checked all the display settings I can think of and have tried re-sizing the desktop to all other settings in an attempt to fix the problem. Additionally I have restarted/shutdown the computer totally to see if it would fix the issue. No success. Please help.
Thx,
Audioboy

I had the same problem, but the zoom was already off. So I went under "options" and unchecked "use scroll wheel with modifier keys to zoom," and that took care of it.
Thought that might help some others who find this thread.

The display on my screen has become too big. I've tried adjusting the screen size and the zoom isn't set. Can anyone help?

I have an iMAC 7.1 running OS X 10.6.8.
The display has become too big for the screen. I've looked at the zoom and it is turned off. I've tried adjusting the pixel setting (currently 1920 * 1200) to no effect.
The bar at the top of the screen is elongated, and I can't see the time in the top right hand corner.
This is affecting everything I lookmat, the dock in the bottom doesn't show until I bring the mouse down (hide dock is off).
I have no idea what caused this and I can't fix it.
Does anyone have idea what the problem is and how to fix it?
ANy help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

No wheel, it's a magic mouse.
Tried safe start. No difference.
The dock and the icons are off the bottom of the screen.
I I have finder open and move the cursor to the right to show the time, I lose finder / file /edit from the overhead banner.
Still no closer to solving it.

How do you change the size of display in Firefox, I get Hotmail too small and Flikr too big

I get the font size too small on Hotmail when viewing through Firefox. The screen size and font size is too big when viewing Flickr through Firefox. I am sure it is a simple question of adjusting zoom and I have seen it change while I am online. I just can't work out what I did to change it.
