How do I force text in a label to be centered???

How can I outline the text in a label?
I can't find a setHorizontalAlginment method or something similar.

search for CENTER (it can done when the label is constructed or changed later by setVerticalAlignment)

Whatever your problem, it won't have anything to do with
being in an
editable region. Post a URL to your page and identify the
problem area.

How to get the text in a label which is imbeded in a JTextPane

I have created a JTextPane that has 5 JLabels inserted in the text. I have attempted to get the text with the following code snippet.
Component[] lbl = new Componennt[DisplayLetterPane.getComponentCount()];
//         JTextPane DisplayLetterPane; is defined previously
         lbl = DisplayLetterPane.getComponents();
         int componentIndex = 0;
         String lblText = new String(((JLabel)lbl[componentIndex]).getText());I have run a dump of the sytledDocument of the JTextPane and I see the JLabel listed as a component.
When this snippet is executed I get the following:
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.ClassCastException: javax.swing.text.ComponentView$Invalidator
When I check the character where the component for the JLabel is located in the styled document it does not find an instanceof JLabel.
How can I get the text from the labels.
Thank you in advance!

JTextPane jtp = new JTextPane();
          for (int i = 0; i <5; i++) {
               jtp.add(new JLabel("labelText"+i));
          Component[] lbl = new Component[jtp.getComponentCount()];
//      JTextPane DisplayLetterPane; is defined previously
      lbl = jtp.getComponents();
      int componentIndex = 0;
      for (int i = 0; i < lbl.length; i++) {
           System.out.println(((JLabel)lbl).getText());
When I do like the above, it just works fine. Can u share a little bit more of your code?

How can I force text in a table to wrap at the margin? Chinese characters result in wide tables.

Hello all ye RoboHelpers out there.
Background:
We're using RH 9 (latest patch) on Windows 7 machine.
We document in English and then the RH project gets localized into many diff languages and we use that to generate CHM, and Printed outputs.
The Problem:
In the Chinese language, in printed output, the right border of most tables exeeds well beyond the margin.
Here's what the localized table looks like in the RH editor:
By comparison, here's the equivalent English topic prior to localization:
Our CHM output is fine. In fact, here's what the Chinese looks like in when output to a browser or previewed and I drag the right side to
a narrower width. Notice that the table text appropriately wraps to remain within the window's size:
But here's what it looks like when I generate it in Word's printed output:
Notice the location of the margin at 6.5 inches. It should be wrapping at the margin. And something is weird with the left cell how it's getting pushed so far to the right.
The actual table width ends up around 11 inches! I had some tables last time I did this that were as far out as 18 inches but looked perfectly fine in English!
We use Across Systems for our localization tool, and I've verified that our translators are not messing with the table properties at all; only the text is exposed. One interesting difference I've noticed from other languages, is that Chinese characters do not contain a true space or period characters when we get them back from localization. This makes sentences essentially a really long string of unbroken characters, and I suspect this somehow pushes the generated tables to wide extremes in printed output.
What I've Tried:
I've tried to change the table properties in Word to auto fit the size of the window.
I've tried setting the width in RH to a specific size and regenerating. Still doesn't help.
I've added in space character and doing that does cause lines to wrap in some cases, but not in all. But I shouldn't have to do this.
I've tried to create a VBA macro in Word to size the tables, but couldn't get it to work.
What I need:
I need to somehow globally force all the tables' text strings to wrap once they reaches the right margin no mater what, even if the line does not contain space characters. Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere, either on the RH side or the Word side that can do this for these long strings of characters?
I really hope someone else has figured out how to deal with this because last time I did this, I had to go through approximately 500 tables and manually do a very convoluted workaround dragging the table handle in Print layout mode back to the right margin to get the table to wrap appropriately. It was a major pain in neck!
Many thanks in a advance for any ideas you might have.

I wonder the Format Tables macros on my site could be adapted?
http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/word/word_macros.htm
If not, I have used Macro Express to format tables in Rh. No reason it could not be used in Word.

How to change the text of label dynamically

Hi all,
I have done a dynpro program.It requires to implement the dynamically display the label text, for example: there is a label, sometimes, we want to display "Purchase Order" and sometimes we want to display "Sales Order". Can anyone tell me how to change the text of label according to my requirements? thanks in advance!

Hi Wei,
AS of now you will not be able to change the Text Field ( Label ) dynamically or at runtime. This is a limitation.Refer to this link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e4/2adbef449911d1949c0000e8353423/frameset.htm
But, there is a way around.
You can make a text field Visible / Invisible based on your program logic. So, based on what you want, you can process a module which will take care of that.
Have a look at these DEMO Code. You can have a good idea to implement the logic.

Thanks,
Samantak.

How to change the text color of a label by using RGB values without changing the background colour?

xCode interface builder:
When I try to change the color property of a label's text by using the RGB values, the background color also changes to the same value automatically.
in other words:
While setting the RGB values for text colour of labels, the background colour also changes unless we use the sliders.
How to make sure that only the color of text changes and not the background?

You can simply do this.
[labelname setTextColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:38/255.0f green:171/255.0f blue:226/255.0f alpha:1.0f]];

How do I force iPhone Mail app to reply in plain text?

How do I force the iPhone Mail app to reply in plain text?

If I take the above preferences and change them from Arial 14 to Arial 144 I can get the body in about half of my current messages to display in 144 pt font.
It varies by mail client of sender and to which mail box it goes to on my Mac. Haven't found a commonality yet.
Someone here will have a brilliant answer, however.

How do I change the text on a label for a SAP delivered WD view

Hi,
I need to change the text that is being displayed for a label in a SAP delivered WD ABAP View. When I look at the properties for this label, the Text property is currently empty, so I assume that the text that is being displayed in the view is coming from the dictionary. I was hoping to change the text of the label via the Enhancement Framework. I created an OTR entry, then went into SE80 for the WD Component, I navigated to the view in question, I pressed the Enhance button and entered $OTR:<package>/<alias name> in the text property for the label. Finally I saved and activated and was prompted to create an Enhancement Implementation, which I did and I selected it. Everything seems to be fine (no errors or warnings). I then ran the WD application. My change was not there. I then went back into SE80 for the WD Component that I created the enhancement. I navigated to the View and looked in the text property of the label and saw that my change was not there. I repeated this process several times and each time when I added the OTR entry to the text property of the label, it saves and activates without issue (in enhancement mode), but when I run the WD App the change does not show up and when I go back to the WD View, my change to the text property is gone. I know that if I really wanted to I could register the object and add the OTR entry to the text attribute of the label, but I am trying to perform this change using a modification free enhancement. Can this be done via an Enhancement, or do I have to register the object and make my change using a modification?

Hi Gregg,
excellent question. I had the same problem as well before.
What I have learned is that you cannot change a UI Element via Enhancements.
You can add new UI Elements (e.g. new label) or remove existing elements, but you cannot change them (except the layout properties (e.g. colspan) maybe).
The only possibilities I see is
1. Remove the existing label, and add a new label with your desired text
2. Do it as a modification
3. Do it as a configuration (This means you go to the webdynpro application in SE80, right click and select "Create/Change Configuration)
4. Do it as customizing (This means you add the URL parameter sap-config-mode=X to the URL, navigate to the label, right click on it, and select "Change Settings for Current Configuration").
The disadvatages of 3) and 4) are
- texts in configurations and customizing are not translatable (as far as I know)
- if you have multiple configurations, you have to change the label multiple times
Hope this helps a bit,
Daniel

How to change the size of the text inside a label?

Hello,
I would like to change the size of the text inside a label.
Is there any way to do it Web DynPro?

Hello Roy,
Not possible. WDLabelDesign contains only 2 values: STANDARD and LIGHT. As workaround you can use TextView. It supports a lot of "designs" (e.g. label_small).
Best regards, Maksim Rashchynski.

How to attach a text in the center of the Ellipse using JXML ?

How to attach a text in the center of the Ellipse using JXML ? Can we use labelFor="$topEllipse" ?
<StackPane fx:controller="myfxml.ArchiveLogsController" id="Login" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml">
<children>
<AnchorPane>

<maxWidth><Double fx:value="-Infinity"/></maxWidth>
<maxHeight><Double fx:value="-Infinity"/></maxHeight>
<children>
<Ellipse fx:id="topEllipse" centerX="100" centerY="100" radiusX="50" radiusY="10" strokeWidth="2" stroke="#FF0000" style="-fx-fill: linear-gradient(to right, white 0%, red 100%);"/>
*<Label fx:id="ArchLogs_lb" text="My Ellipse Label" />*
</children>
<properties>
<backgroundColor>
<Color blue="1.0" green="1.0" red="1.0" />
</backgroundColor>
<elementLockSel>
<Boolean fx:value="true" />
</elementLockSel>
</properties>
</AnchorPane>
</children>
</StackPane>

I'd suggest putting the Ellipse and the Label in a StackPane.
I wonder why so many people call it JXML?
It is so strange - I guess the JXML name just seems more natural to some people, though I don't know why.
I think Greg is right and that labelFor is not what you want:
http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/api/javafx/scene/control/Label.html
"Labels also are useful in that they can have mnemonics which, if used, will send focus to the Control listed as the target of the labelFor property . . . A Label can act as a label for a different Control or Node. This is used for Mnemonics and Accelerator parsing. This allows setting of the target Node."
