How do I set the column content to automatic break lines

Hello Guys,
I have a problem with the column width and the column content of a standard report. Within the report are hugh entries which aren't interrupted by an space character. I set my column width to a special value by usingen "css style: display block; width: 300px;". Now the problem is that some of the column entries have a longer width than the column width is setted. So they overlock the entries of the column next to them.
My question is: How do I set the column content to automatic break lines after a certain count of characters?
After researching a couple of websites and discussion thread I found maybe a reference to the solution. I hope it help you to give me an answer.
COLUMN LAST_NAME FORMAT A4

Wderr,
PDFs are another animal entirely. Try adjusting the width of the column under the Print Attributes tab of the report.
If that doesn't work you'll probably need to create custom XSL-FO layouts which, depending on the tools you have at your disposal, could take some time.

  • How can we set the column size and height dynamically

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement where i am designing rtf for excel output.Here i have a column where the height of that particular column must get reset dynamically according to the data that's getting populated.
    Thankq in advance.

    I had the same problem and I finally found that you can't set a form bean.
    There is no methods to do this.
    The only way is to make it a dynamic form bean, but i haven't investigated it.
    Now I use normal beans to move data between pages.
    Sorry if it's not what you want. If you have another solution let me know.

  • How do I set the scrolling distance to exactly 1 line of text?

    I thought Firefox used to have an option available to scroll by X lines of text. Now it seems to be scrolling by a slight bit more than 3 lines, resulting in misalignment of text with the top of the window when either the scrollbar or down arrow key is used. Where are the controls for making scroll height more predictable, and how do I use them? I am running Firefox 22.0 on Windows 7.

    Hi Brian, there is a setting for the number of lines:
    toolkit.scrollbox.verticalScrollDistance (default value = 3)
    This governs the up and down arrow keys, but doesn't seem to affect the up and down buttons on the scrollbar.
    A "line" can vary greatly in height and I'm not sure how Firefox determines the actual distance to scroll. More research is needed on that. (Note that you cannot adjust the preference to a fraction; it must be a whole number.)
    Have you noticed a differences from Firefox 21? That could be related to your Windows DPI settings, which Firefox now honors. Do you know what percentage you're using at the system level (e.g., 100%, 125%, 150%) and have you adjusted that in Firefox (using the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx preference)?

  • How do I set the desktop background to automatically change every so often?

    I had my desktop background set to change every five seconds, with the photos coming from a folder in my iPhoto files. I then made a new folder of background pictures in iPhoto, but when I switched to them and tried to make it "change every 5 seconds", or 1 minute etc., it would not change. I then reverted back to the original group of files and it STILL wouldn't change, even though it had been doing so for the many months that I had been using this set of background photos before.
    I have clicked on "change every 5 seconds" and "random order", but for some reason I can now only change the pictures manually by clicking on them in the right hand pane of the system preferences window. Please can someone tell me how to make them change automatically again...?

    Have you tried restarting your computer and attempting it again?
    Sorry if this is a dumb question, but a lot of people run their machines 24/7 and sometimes a little reboot helps.

  • How do I set the zoom level to automatically Fit to Window?

  • How can I set the audio conference to automatically start AS HOST when the meeting starts?

    I can easily setup an audio conference for any meeting, and set that conference to start.  However, there doesn't seem to be a way for the conference to start as the moderator (or, host) when the meeting starts.  This means I still have to dial in to the conference with a land line or cell phone and enter my host code to get the audio conference started.
    The only audio conference provider at my company is The Conferencing Center.  I don't seem to have a TCC account.  What do I do to get this working?  It's nuts to have to use a land line just to get the audio going.

    There are a number of integrated audio providers other than TCC, and those can be enabled in the Admin section of Connect. However, using the fully integrated bridge does still require that a Host/Leader be dialled in before audio will broadcast (or something other than hold music).
    If you don't want to have to call in, I'd recommend that you use Universal Voice to tell Connect the dial in steps and give it the Host/Leader pin.Setting Up Universal Voice - Adobe Connect User Community.
    The downside to this is that there will no longer be a dial out option for participants.

    Hi experts,
    When i run t-code miro, i want to fill into the text value(DRSEG-SGTXT) on the item line automatically.
        Its value is the PO description by default. I has tested the user exits (Related to T-Code MIRO,such as LMR1M001/002/003/004 etc) and badi(INVOICE_UPDATE). They can't work very well.
       I'd like to input Purchasing Document Number and enter, material items are display and its text value(DRSEG-SGTXT) is also filled in.  
    Any clue is appreciated.

  • How to set the column order of a sealed column in a custom Content Type for the new item form NewDocSet.aspx?

    Dear SharePoint Developers,
    Please help.
    I need to know How to set the column order of a sealed column in a custom Content Type for the new item form NewDocSet.aspx?
    I think this is a "sealed column", whatever that is, which is  shown in SPD 2013 as a column of content type "document, folder, MyCustomContentType".
    I know when I set the column order in my custom Content Type settings page, it is correct.
    But, when I load the NewDocSet.aspx page, the column order that I set in the settings page is NOT used for this "sealed column" which is bad.
    Can you help?
    Please advise.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to set the column order of a sealed column in a custom Content Type for the new item form NewDocSet.aspx.
    Per my knowledge, if you have Content Type management enabled for the list or library (if you see a list of content type with the option to add more), the display order of columns is set for each content type.
    Drill down into one of them and you'll see the option under the list of columns for that content type.
    To apply the column order in the NewDocSet.aspx page, you need to:
    Select Site Settings, under Site Collection Administration, click Content type publishing. In the Refresh All Published
    Content Types section, choose Refresh all published content types on next
    update.
    Run two timer jobs(Content Type Hub, Content Type Subscriber) in central admin(Central Administration--> Monitoring--> Review timer jobs).

  • How do i set the background of the table( not of cell / row / column).

    How do i set the background of the table( not of cell / row / column).
    What happens when i load the applet the table is blank and displays the background color is gray which we want to be white.
    We tried using the setBackGround but it is not working maybe we are not using it properly. Any help would be gr8.
    Thanks in advance.

    I don't understand very well, but i guess that the background is gray when the table content's empty, isn't it?
    When the table model is empty, the JTable doesn't paint, so its container displays its background (often gray).
    In this case, what you must do is force the table to paint, even if the model is empty. So, you have to create your own table and override three methods :
    public class MyTable extends JTable
    //specify the preferred and minum size when empty
    myPreferredWidth = 200;
    myPreferredHeigth =200;
    myMinimunWidth = ...;
    myMinimunHeigth = ...;
    public Dimension getPreferredSize()
    if(getModel().getRowCount() < 1)
    return new Dimension(myPreferredWidth, myPreferredHeigth);
    else
    return super.getPreferredSize();
    public Dimension getMinimumSize()
    if( getModel().getRowCount() > 0)
    return new Dimension(myMinimunWidth, myMinimunHeigth);
    else
    return super.getMinimumSize();
    protected void paintComponent(Graphics g)
    if (getModel().getRowCount<1 && isOpaque()) { //paint background
    g.setColor(Color.white);
    g.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
    else super.paintComponent(g);
    }

  • How do I set the CoreTable sort column in the managed bean?

    I have a CoreTable with two columns, first name and company, from the managed bean in a session scope, how do I set the company column to be the default/selected sort order?
    Or is that done by binding the af:column to a CoreColumn object in the managed bean, which method would I use?
    <af:column sortProperty="company" sortable="true">
    <f:facet name="header">
    <af:outputText value="#{common.labelCompany}"/>
    </f:facet>

    Yes, I know, "sortable", see, I even used it in my example. I don't want to disable default sorting.
    What I'm asking is how to have more than one sortProperty. When the user clicks the column heading, I want to sort by "myFirstProperty" AND "mySecondProperty". The sortProperty only seems to allow one sort property.
    One possibility seems to be to programatically add items to the List of SortCriterion objects as in your example, but where would I put this code so that it is executed when the user clicks the column heading, but before the table is sorted.

  • How do I set the content type ?

    Hi
    I have to upload a file from my Java Application to a remote servlet.
    I have used the HTTPConnection class to connect to the remote servlet and made it call the POST method explicitly.
    How do I set the content type of the file I am uploading from my Java apllication?
    I tried to change the content type in the doPost method. by giving
    req.setContentType("multipart/form-data"); in the doPost.
    It still doesnt work..
    Is there any way to set the content type in the Java application?
    Thanks in advance

    What class is your req variable? If your using a HttpServletRequest, then there is no method req.setContentType("");
    In the HttpServletResponse this is for telling the web browser or receving medium what kind of mime type to expect.
    And what package is the HttpConnection class from?
    I think more precise info is required before this question can be answered.

  • How do I set the number of columns for JTextPane

    I only found a method setSize() of JTextPane class. How can I set the number of columns in a JTextPane? Each column can be written one letter.
    Thanks.

    You're not going to use FontMetrics to change the width of the characters; you're going to use it figure out how wide a single character is. Then multiply by the number of characters you want to have in a line, and presto! You know how wide to make your JTextPane.
    Unless I've misunderstood your problem, of course.
