Horizontal Scroll bar in messgae window is a pain, can text be wrapped?

I am new to Thunderbird but so far i am enjoying it compared to Entourage.
I have one question regarding the horizontal scroll bar i see on some messages... Why on earth is this here? I really do not understand the logic in scrolling right to read an email, surely this text should wrap into the window space available rather than having to keep moving the scroll bar along?
I have had a play around with the preferences but to no avail, can anyone point me in the right direction as this is becoming frustrating : ( :cry:
Perhaps someone can develop this as an add on?
Many thanks for reading this post
Cheers Tony

  • How can I hide horizontal scroll bar?

    Some websites use CSS code (overflow-x: hidden or overflow-y:hidden), that shows the horizontal scroll bar while the frame on the website is centered and only 800 pixels wide, but I really don't need my horizontal scroll bar to show up. So how can I hide it?
    Thanks!

    If you use <b>overflow: hidden</b> then you shouldn't see a scroll bar (overflow:scroll does that).<br />
    If that doesn't work then try to add the !important; or use the code in Stylish or to userContent.css in the chrome folder.

  • My horizontal scroll bar went missing when I maximise the window. How do I fix them?

    My horizontal scroll bar went missing when I maximise the window. How do I fix them? I tried everything; such as auto hide the task bar. Even with this, I still can't see the horizontal scroll bar. I even tried the following and I still can't see the horizontal scroll bar.
    1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste dom and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the dom.disable_window_open_feature.scrollbars preference to switch it from false to true. By choosing true, you disable sites from deciding whether there can be scrollbars on a window, and Firefox uses its standard behavior for the page.
    If you want to always get other bars, here are the corresponding settings:
    Menu Bar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.menubar
    Navigation Toolbar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.toolbar
    Bookmarks Toolbar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.personalbar
    Please help.

  • How to get the Horizontal Scroll Bar for a Table?

    Hi All,
    As per my requirement, I am displaying several records in a Screen in a Tabular Format. But here I have to show 21 Columns in that table which is too high. I am able to display it but due to it I am getting a Horizontal scroll bar for the whole screen since all the columns are not getting displayed in the normal window screen space. But its looking too odd since once I am scrolling it to right the columns are getting displayed but the above Header Bar and Global buttons are not displaying, they are bound to the normal screen space.
    Is there a way to have a Horizontal scroll bar only for that table instead of the entire screen so that on scrolling that bar only the table rows will beshifted ant got displayed?
    With Thanks
    Kumar Gautam

    try this approach.
    include a raw text item before and table item.
    include the appropriate HTML tags in raw text item to enable horizontal scroll

  • Horizontal scroll bar for the adf page

    Hi,
    We have around 7 tables in single jsff page. Here , we have a requirement like :
    We need to show horizontal scroll bar for the entire page instead of each table. Is there any way to get this.
    As of now, we have horizontal scroll bar for each table, but our customer is not accepting this, that want the scroll bar for the entire page.
    Please suggest the approach.
    Thanks

    I have grouped all the tables in panelgrouplayout.So, what is the problem (because it is not quite clear what you need)?
    If your PanelGroupLayout is with layout="horizontal", then the tables will be rendered next to each other horizontally but there will be no horizontal scrollbar on the page.
    If your PanelGroupLayout is with layout="scroll", then the tables will be next to each other vertically and there will be a horizontal and a vertical scrollbar on the page (if necessary).
    If you need your tables to be relocated next to each other horizontally and to have a horizontal scrollbar on the page, then use a PanelGroupLayouts(horizontal) inside a PanelGroupLayout(scroll):
    <af:panelGroupLayout layout="scroll">
      <af:panelGroupLayout layout="horizontal">
        <af:table> ... </af:table>
        <af:table> ... </af:table>
        <af:table> ... </af:table>
      </af:panelGroupLayout>
    </af:panelGroupLayout>If your problem is that you still have horizontal scrollbars inside the tables, then you should set appropriate widths to the corresponding tables (e.g. to <af:table> tags) such that they are large enough to fit the sum of corresponding column widths.
    ya, I know that its not god design, but its customer requirement, so we need to do that.If you expect some table(s) to be stretched automatically according to the size of browser's window, then you should re-think your UI design because PanelGroupLayouts do not stretch their children. A possible solution is to use a combination of PanelSplitters or other layout containers that stretch their children.

  • Horizontal scroll bar missing after switch to Apex 4 theme

    Hi,
    I upgraded Apex to 4.02 and switch my application theme from old 3.2 theme to new Apex 4.0 theme,
    I found that all the Apex 4.02 won't show horizontal scroll if the interactive report width larger than the browser windows width.
    Is this the default behaviour of all the 4.0 theme?
    How can I change it to display the horizontal scroll bar.
    Thanks

    How about editing the template with some css?
    something like this should fix your problems (worked fine for me)
    #two-col
    overflow: auto;
    dont forget to change the template body (Shared Components --> Templates --> Edit Page Template )
    (div class="tab-holder")
    #REGION_POSITION_04#
    (/div)
    note: I reversed the tags to ( ) because it dont shows them else

  • Horizontal scroll bar in selectOneMenu tag

    Hi,
    I am using selectOneMenu tag to show the data. The data size is larger than the size of selectOneMenu tag. Inspite of increasing the size of tag,
    I want to add a horizontal scroll bar.
    Can someone please suggest me, how to achieve this?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Rahul

    Hi,
    As suggested, I am using div tag to set the horizontal scroll bar in SelectOneMenu tag. The way I'm using it :-
    <div style="overflow-x:scroll; width:140px;">
    <h:selectOneMenu
              id="eventType"
              styleClass="standardInput"
              required="true"
              tabindex="40"
              onchange="clearMessage(this);"
              value="#{UserBean.activeEvent.eventType}"
              onkeydown="searchSelect( event);"
              onblur="searchBlur(event);" >
    <f:selectItems value="#{ReferenceLists.eventTypeList}" />
    </h:selectOneMenu>
    </div>
    This is adding the scroll bar outside the selectOneMenu tag but I want it in the dropdown window.
    Please suggest me, how to resolve the issue.

  • Horizontal scroll bar in OAF screen flexible layout

    Hi Gurus,
    We have developed an OAF screen using flexible layout. Currently we have two tabs showing in the same window. We are unable to increase the number of columns in the result table of the flexible layout as there is no horizontally scroll bar getting added dynamically.
    Please let me know any pointers on this.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Nagesh.

    Tapash,
    I hope ur talking about this thread:
    Page Scrolling
    User did it in JTF i.e. jsp not in OAF, thats' what I was thinking, because OAF does not provide js api's for OATableBean, unless I create my own custom table , like we do in jsp.

  • Horizontal Scroll Bar not displaying

    Hi,
    We have a page with many recursive tables for alignment.
    We have a lot of graphs displayed horizontally, so that we need to scroll the page horizontally.
    We happened to change the layout and suddenly we are missing the horizontal scroll bar !!
    We could not scroll to see the hidden page details.
    This happens only in IE6, IE7. Firefox, Mozilla displays it with horizontal bars
    Does anybody knows as what the problem could be ??

  • Horizontal scroll bar moves with page up/down

    I'm new at this and apologize if I don't have the right forum, but can't find any reference to my problem anywhere. A month or so ago the horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the screen started moving up or down with the page as I used the vertical scroll bar to page up or down. The bar partly disintegrates if I click on it, but mostly remains in place and obscures text on that line. If there is more than one page I can make the bar disappear by scrolling the to the next page, and then back. This happens only when I'm on the internet, and appears in news pages ( e.g. NY Times, BBC) and on my e-mails (I use Hotmail). I have a Mac mini, 1.66 GHz, OS 10.4.11, all other updates offered by Apple. I'm sure this is not a Safari problem, and my searches for Apple viruses, Trojans, Worms, has found nothing about this (there are discussions about vertical scrolling, but these don't seem to relate to my problem). So can anyone tell me what this is and how to get rid of it? Thanks for any help. TJ Wont

    I've got the same problem. It started when the BBC introduced adverts onto their News website. As the page loads an advert (or sometimes whitespace) appears between the tab and the BBC News banner. This is then shifted to the right hand side when the page fully loads.
    I suspect that there's some fancy DHTML going on that Safari isn't rendering properly.
    Problem doesn't occur if the Safari window is maximised to full screen width.

  • Horizontal Scroll Bar in Power Pivot?

    Good Afternoon,
    I have recently installed PowerPivot and began importing my T-SQL queries into it, unfortunately for queries with a large number of columns, I am unable to see a horizontal scroll bar, although I do have a vertical scrollbar.  I can move my cursor to
    the right, however it just disappears off screen.  Is there any way to add a horizontal scrollbar to the PowerPivot window?

    Thanks for providing the screen shot. This behaviour isn't normal; the horizontal scroll bar should definitely by present in this scenario.
    Does re-sizing the Power Pivot Window cause the horizontal scroll bar to appear?
    Does toggling between the Data View and Diagram View make a difference?
    Does disabling and then re-enabling the Power Pivot Add-in make any difference?
    Does the same thing happen if you create a new workbook and load the same table?
    Have you already tried a repair on your Office installation?

  • Horizontal scroll bar disappears in URL isolation method iview

    Hello Experts,
    I am facing a strange problem. In MSS --> Reporting, when the report is generated, it is shown in a new window. That iview is basically having URL isolation method which has been disabled i.e. it cannot be changed(It is an iview created by SAP). The problem is the scroll bars. The report is basically a R3 report which has scroll bars but when it is displayed in the iview, the horizontal scroll bar disappears.
    The requirement is to have both the scroll bars.
    The horizontal scroll bar appears for a while when we manually resize the window.
    I have checked the windows parameters also in which the scroll bars are set to 1 through code in WD java(not in the iview properties).
    Please help !!
    Thanks & Regards

    Edited by: modish on Jan 25, 2012 8:00 AM

    Vikash,
    Header and footer can be handled from the property 'tray' of the page and iview. But this is not a matter of concern. Try the following to see if the report is getting generated-
    1) Try toying with the properties of page- 'authentication scheme', 'initial state-open', 'isolation method-embedded','metadata for navigation hierarchy-cacheable'.
    If the above do not help-
    1) Preview your iView from the admin console.
    2) Right click on the opened up window (where the report is getting displayed) and select properties.
    3) Copy the address URL from that.
    4) Create a URL iView for the above copied URL
    5) Use this new iView to see if it resolves your problem. OR assign this to a page and then see it that helps.
    Its really strange to believe the above, but it actually helped me in one scenario. Let's give it a try and then I can explain further its reasoning.

    Atul

  • Horizontal scroll bar in maintenance view

    Hi all,
             i have a ztable  which has ony two fields id and description. Maintenance view exists for same.
    Can anybody suggest me how to set 'HORIZONTAL SCROLL BAR' for this view as sometimes description is too large and not able to see the description. plz suggest me.
    plz help.
    thnks n Regards,
    Ashmita Singh

    You can do one of two things:
    1. When you are at the maintenance view, manually drag the right edge of the columns to make them narrower.
    2. If you can change the maintenance view, go to the function group with the same name as the maintenance view (which should be the one automatically generated, such as from SE54), and then find the screen in the function group. Open the screen, click "Layout", and the SAP GUI painter will display the screen layout. Over there, click the upper-left corner of the table, and the control TCTRL_<your_view_name> will be selected. Open the "attribute window" or press F2, and then you can set the number of Fixed Columns. Try reducing the number and re-test the effect.

    Can you start by giving us the troubleshooting information <b>from the Firefox installation that's having problems. </b>This is an essential step in troubleshooting.<br>
    *Click the Firefox button at the top left, then click the ''Help'' menu and select ''Troubleshooting Information'' from the sub-menu. If you don't have a Firefox button, click the Help menu at the top and select ''Troubleshooting Information'' from the menu.
    Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
