How to control column width in manual posting ?

Hi gurus,
I have some manual posting tasks with associated document types. In some of them when you get into the screen to record the manual data, the columns titles  are so wide that the rigthmost columns get out of the screen and one needs to scroll horizontally.
Is there some way in wich I can fix columns width? I think if I narrow manually the columns and then fix this layout?
Thank you.

Hi,
I beleive you work in the language other than English. I encounter this very annoying system's behaviour while working in Russian.
I know that some notes are dedicated to solving of this or that problem in particular language.
The easiest way to make some "stubborn" settings is to do it in English and the return to your locale.

  • How to controll column width in report ?

    Dear All,
    i have created Classic Report but here Column width is too large.
    i want to controll column width in report .
    How can i do this..
    Thanks

    Hi Vedant,
    There are two possibilities in your case.
    1.width of your column heading is too large.
    include break in your column heading
    for ex .. column heading is employee department number then write it as *[Employee(br)Department(br)Number]* // replace ( with < and ) with > in br
    2) Value is too large
    Go to Report Attributes->edit your column->column formatting->css style
    In CSS style put this display:block;width:100px;white-space:wrap
    Hope this will helps you,
    Thanks,
    Jitendra

  • How to control column width in table?

    I have a table with four columns, and they are all with same width.
    But I want to make one of them wider.
    How should I do?
    public void loadTable(){
    Vector infoList = myObj.getInfoList();
    Info info;
    DefaultTableModel dtm = (DefaultTableModel)myPanel.tblList.getModel();
    String[] columnNames = {
    "wider column",
    "Column B",
    "Column C",
    "Column D"};
    dtm.setColumnIdentifiers(columnNames);
    for(int i=0;i< infoList.size();i++){
    // add stuff to "data"
    dtm.addRow(data);
    myPanel.tblList.setModel(dtm);
    myPanel.tblList.getColumnModel().getColumn(1).setWidth(100);
    I also tried setPreferedWidth(), not working for me either.
    What should I do?
    Thank you

    Try setting all the column widths. Define values for normal and width columns:
            DefaultTableColumnModel tcModel = (DefaultTableColumnModel) myTable.getColumnModel();
            Enumeration columnEnum = tcModel.getColumns();
            while (columnEnum.hasMoreElements()) {
                TableColumn column = (TableColumn) columnEnum.nextElement();
                if (column.getModelIndex()  != 1) {
                    column.setPreferredWidth(narrowWidth);
                } else {
                    column.setPreferredWidth(wideWidth);
    Cheers

  • How to Control the width of the Filter row in Table View

    Hi !
    I have a Table View with filter='application'. The filter works fine but I am not able to control the width of the columns of the tableview .
    On filtering, if there are not items in the table view the columns shrink to the minum width....and  it looks very odd.
    Can you help me how to control the width of the Filter-Row in Table Veiw.
    Thanks and Best Regards,
    Bindiya

    Hi Raja,
    "FIXEDCOLUMN" did not help in the width of the column, but it just showed all the rows merged in the column.
    I have a cloumn called "COUNTRY" and its width is set to "20". The Filter of the column "COUNTRY" is a dropdownlist whos value is update with new values.
    On filtering if there is any row visible then the column width is adjusted to the maxmimum length of the dropdownlist ( this is because of the "EDIT" attribute in column definition ). But if there is no rows visiblel for the selected filter value then the filter row shrinks to the width = "20" and the dropdownlist is not visible completely.
    Need to know how to control the width of the FILTER column.
    Thanks and Best Regards,
    Bindiya

  • How to set column widths in tables for selected table only, not globally throughout document?

    I've been utilizing the below script (thank you so much Ramkumar. P!) to set column widths throughout a sizable InDesign book with tables on every page and it is truly a time saver. At this point in time, I have three versions of it because there are different column widths throughout the book. Is it possible to augment the script to run only on a selected text frame (containing a table)? If so, would someone be kind enough to share the augmented script with me? I've been trying to figure out this seemingly simple change through trial and error with no success as yet. I realize this is a totally newbie request and I'm entirely at the mercy of the kindness of the Javascript gods that contribute within this forum. Seeing that in a different post related to this script, one such guru responded to a request as simple as "Where do I put the scripts in InDesign" gave me enough courage to ask for some help! Thank you in advance to anyone willing to provide a solution.
      var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
         var myWidths = [100, 100, 150, 150];
         for(var T=0; T < myDoc.textFrames.length; T++){
             for(var i=0; i < myDoc.textFrames[T].tables.length; i++){
                 for(var j=0; j < myWidths.length; j++){
                     myDoc.textFrames[T].tables[i].columns[j].width = myWidths[j];
         alert("Table width updated successfully...");

    Hello all
    I have the same problem in that I'm not a scripting person, but was able to get the above script working without problem, and it does set irregular table column widths perfectly, so thanks to Ramkumar. P for that.
    BUT, it changes the column width for ALL tables in the document, whereas I would like to just target the selected table.
    Any ideas as to how I might amend this script to achieve this?
    Thx, Christian

  • Controlling Column Width in Report Region

    I have a report region based on a simple select statement. I'd like the table to be the full width of the region and I'd like the columns to be spaced evenly so that they are also the full width of the region. I have figured out how to set the table width via Report Attributes Substitution, but I am unable to set the column width. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • How to adjust Column width using SHD0 for FB60

    Hi,
    How can adjust ( i have to reduce the length) Assignment filed in the FB60 transaction using SHD0.
    Please help in this regard.
    Regards,
    Kishore

    HI,
    I think you can adjust the column width and save it as Screen Variant in the SHD0.
    When you create a screen variant for the MIRO, adjust your column width and position than save it the variant. Once you save and activate the variant, it will appear in the Layout dropdown box on MIRO.
    OR
    Please check in spro with ur functional consultant to explore if the field can be made not mandatory..

    My PlayBook App: Checklists

    With the new Playbook 2.0 update and the docs to go app, I found that when in Excel, tap on the column header, (where it has the column identified as A, B, C, etc.), the whole column will be highlighted in blue and you will notice that on one side of the column header is a double line. Simply place finger on the header and slide to desired width. Tap outside of the column to return to the document.

  • How to set column width for Label in Form region?

    In the form region, the label value is a lengthy text, and it does not wrap. How do I make it wrap to a fixed column width?
    Under Home>Application Builder>Application>Page>Edit Page Item,
    i have set "HTML Table Cell Attributes" to width="300", but it still does not wrap. and pushes the field to the right end of the page.
    I am quite sure there are better ways of doing this.

    thanks Simakas for the reply.
    I had set the label template to "Optional" and that was forcing a "nowrap". After unsetting the template, I used your suggestion and it works like a charm. Thanks.

  • How to resize column width in report?

    hi all,
    i read somewhere here that in order to resize column width in a report, you need to go to report attributes, then edit the column you wish to resize and then go to the CSS Style and place something like "width=600px". while this works very well in Internet Explorer, it somehow has no effect in Firefox 3.0. is there a way to make it work both browsers?
    thanks
    allen

    Hi,
    Sorry, I misunderstood. There are several methods you could use:
    1 - Use the span tags around the data itself - this would require adding the tags into the sql statement itself
    2 - Use javascript to set the column widths by adding a style to the TD tags for each cell
    3 - Create a new Report Template and use COL tags immediately after the TABLE tag in the Before Rows section to specify the widths of all columns
    Option 3 may be the easiest?
