How to fix Classic table column width / length fix ?

Hi,
I have a page for display purpose. In this page I am showing record.
My requirement is to make Description column width fix. If data of description is huge then height will increase but not the length / width.
Currently width property is 100%.
Table is attached to VO.
How to it ?
Regards,
Ajay

Ajay ,
I was looking into the two screen shots , i also had a close look at “Device Description” and “UDID " columns .
I have also tried in my Jdeveloper it was not working . But it works fine if you change item style from styled text to
message text input . I want you to try one more thing , since it work fine for message text input , change item style
to message text input and set Read Only property to ' TRUE' and check .
Keep size as same as you did before :
Height :- 2
Width :- 30

How can I fix the 1st column width (member) in Planning data forms

Hi all,
does anybody know a trick, how I can fix the first column width in planning data forms? I need a composite data form (Planning 9.3.1) and the problem is, that in the first form the member names are longer. So Planning sizes the column as it is needed to display the full member name. The member names of the second data form are shorter, so the data entry cells are not exactly among each other for both data forms and that looks terrible....
Thanks and kind regards
André

There are 3 ways of setting the width in webforms:-
1. There is a global setting for input box length which has a syntax of FormInputBoxLength=30.
2. When you specify the format for each of the dimensions you can choose to select the width of either a column heading or a row heading. In the following example, each time you specified the dimension ‘Account’ a format would be applied to its header. The syntax for this would be something like… HeaderOptionAccount=Length:50,Style:font-size: 12pt;font-family: calibri
3. Each column can have its own width specified. The syntax for this can be setting in each of the column’s code. For example C6=Blank,Style:Background-color:rgb(203,218,231);width:3 would just show a thick vertical line as the width is so small.
You can not set widths in data grids through the normal settings. You can manually change the widths and save the grid though. This can be done in the xml directly. For example… <HDRWIDTH idx=”0″ width=”50″/>.
Then load the amended xml file back into the system.

How to stop table columns widths from drifting

I discovered that all the columns widths of my tables change on their own,
leading me with tables of different columns widths where I wanted to
maintain a strong cohesion of presentation among them.
Here is a scenario to reproduce and understand the problem:
• create a new Pages'08 document;
• insert a Table;
the 3 columns of this newly created table are 5.49 cm width each.
Problematic case:
• change the first column width with:<pre> Table > Table > Column Width > 5 cm</pre> and hit return
• the column width will switch to 5.01 cm
• the 2 other columns widths will have switched to 5.50 cm.
Is there a technique, I didn't find yet, to define a table column to a
fixed value so that Pages'08 won't make it drift and wont touch to
other columns width?

How to test BLOB Table Column in BCBrowser??

Hi,
My requirement is to upload a file(pdf,doc,jpg, txt) into DB using ADF.
I use, Jdev 11.1.1.6, Oracle 10g XE.
For this, I created the following
1. A table as MyFilesTab(ID Number, FileName Varchar2(80), File BLOB)
2. An Entity Object MyFilesEO on MyFilesTab.
3. Generated a default view object: MyFilesVO
4. Application Module : TestAM with view instance "MyFiles"
But When I run TestAM, I see MyFiles as an Input textbox. So I cannot able to add a file that will be stored in my Table.
Please help me out.

Just to clarify, my previous post is related to title of this thread("How to test BLOB Table Column in BCBrowser??"),

How to fix BW Query column width globally before query execution?

Dear Experts,
Regarding the BW Query run in Business Explorer, the width of the first column A of the result displayed in Excel is usually based on the width of the query title.
I know that we can adjust the column width in Excel: right click on the column and change the properties as "Do not adjust column width" on refresh. But how can I change and fix this width globally (regardless of the actual length of the cells) inside the analyzer during query design, and before the result coming out in Excel? I want the change is on the "Change query (global definition)", and not inside the Excel.
Thanks & regards,
James
Edited by: OSS support CCS on Feb 9, 2011 10:15 AM

Hi,
The column width is determined by the Analyser at the runtime and is taken by the settings done at Infoobject level in "Business Explorer tab". Like short text will have X width column.
If you need to have fixed column with different from what is proposed by the system u need to save ur query as Woorkbook.
or if u are displaying them in WEB ANALYSER then u can have report designer to control the formatting.

Drop-down menu in table cells - how to expand over the column width?

Hello!
A client is migrating their 2,400 forms from old JetForms to PDF (LiveCycle Designer) and would like to keep the same functionalities he's used to in the old platform. However, some of the old tool features do not seem to be present in LiveCycle.
Suppose a drop-down menu in a table cell, containing items which lengths are bigger than the table column. In JetForm, when you open the drop-down it spans over the columns to show all its contents, not cutting the drop-down list contents.
I tried this in LiveCycle, but the drop-down gets cut and its contents are limited to the table column (hence the drop-down menu) width.
Is there a way to work around this limitation, even if I have to use some scripting?
Thank you for any ideas!
Marcos

Hi again, Niall!
Thank you again for your great examples!
The dynamic width drop-down will cover some of the client's expectations.
However, they would like it to work even when the drop-down is within a table cell with a width smaller than the width they want the drop-down to show when the mouse enters the field.
I'm afraid you will say this is not possible... Or at least not without a lot of coding, using subforms or the like.
Any ideas?
Thank you very much!
Marcos

How to fix skewed table columns and rows after re-import XML

My question is regarding XML Import in InDesign CS3.
I have a XML that has a table of 5 columns and 5 rows, when I import it into InDesign, the table shows up fine with 5 columns and 5 rows. However when I revise my table to have an additional column, and re-import the XML file, the table gets updated, but instead of with an additional column, it gets 'appended' with an additional row instead (InDesign seems to blindly replace each cell from left to right, top to bottom, and ends up with 6 rows instead). The XML file specifies the number of columns and rows (5 and 5 before, 5 and 6 after), why doesn't InDesign recognize it and automatically add a new column when I re-import the file? Is this problem fixed in CS5.5? Is there a script to fix this?
Here is an example of my old XML vs new XML:

What I mean is, right now there is a "workaround" which requires a user to manually add an extra column before re-importing the XML (with an extra column), otherwise the results get skewed. If by providing a script we can simply ask the user to "run" it, it would be a more "acceptable" solution.
Right. So, one solution would be to use Convert Text to Tables. If you find that works for you, then you can script it.
That's why I asked you...
Of course if nothing is required from the user other than simply re-importing, then that would be the best solution.
Well, one could imagine a script that was attached to the re-import command, or to the link update notification, but probably the first step is to get something that works reasonably well without automating it completely. Especially because triggers to run scripts silently can introduce hard-to-debug problems.
Sure we can switch to use "CALS table and see if this works. The question is, why should we need to? In the 2nd XML there is clearly a different "aid:tcols" value, and yet InDesign seems to ignore it and assume the same # of columns? This sounds like an Indesign bug, can someone confirm? Is there any plans to fix this?
Not to be snarky, but do you want it to work or not? There are the tools you have and the tools you wish you had, and you can't really do much with the ones you wish you had. I'm kind of assuming you are looking for a solution today, not a solution in 2013.
Yes, I believe two of us have confirmed this appears to be a bug.
Plans to fix? Well, we can't really tell you. You could try asking Adobe, but that's not easy information to get out. But you can certainly open a support case at http://adobe.com/go/supportportal and ask. It's not like we have special information here...
But you're probably better off filing a bug first, in that same fashion.
But let's assume no one had filed the bug. CS6 is expected in the March/April 2012 timeframe. That means that they're probably just putting the finishing touches on it right now, and it's going to be very difficult to fix things in it now. So then the earliest you'd likely get it fixed in CS6.5/CS7/whatever which presumably comes out by 2Q2013, and that's assuming Adobe decides to fix it...
I also can't find much documentation on how to update my table to a "CALS table", any examples?
Try this thread:
Re: Importing a CALS table into InDesign CS3

How do you change the column widths in a master-detail input form?

I have changed several columns to af:inputText so that the field contents can be modified, but this defaults the column width to a huge size, way past the size of the actual data field itself. Modifying the width attribute is ignored and dragging the column dividers is also ignored.
How do I reduce the widths of these columns?
Thanks

Hi,
maybe this blog entry "Referencing Maximum Length of an Attribute in an EL Expression" by Steve Muench helps

How can I reduce the column width in a spreadsheet according to the text?

Hi,
I added a spreadsheet to a pages document and now I want to reduce the column width so that it fits the content (text).
I tried it the other way around: I added very small columns and then chose the adjust-automatically-option in informations. This worked, the columns became broader and matched the text.
Now I got a lot of spreadsheets which columns are too broad. When choosing adjust-automatically just nothing happens. What can I do?
Sorry if this sounds a little weird, I'm using English seldom at time and don't know which words to choose to describe my problem properly. Hope someone can help me nevertheless?
Sarah

Hi Sarah,
In Pages, the table Autosize feature pertains to Row Height, not Column Width. Numbers has more Table sizing options than Pages does, so you might want to consider looking into doing your work in Numbers.
In Pages, there are slight differences in how tables behave depending on whether they are Inline or Floating. You might want to experiment with that. Long tables, however, must be Inline.

How to Merge ADF Table Column Header in ADF Table ?

Hi All,
We need to have ADF Table Column header to be "Merged",
e.g :
There are two columns Header : | Qty (Case) | Qty (Pack) |,
can we customize it to display like this :
| ----- Qty -------|
| Case | Pack |
where there are two rows in column header, the first one is "Merged".
How can we do that ?
Thank you very much,
xtanto

Hi Kelly,
Thank you for your reply,
Using Column Faced, Header I can format the header of one column Only.
My requirement is to Merge header of two colums :
| ----- Qty -------|
| Case | Pack |
'Case' &'Pack' is two different column, so I need to add one row on the header of the two colums, then 'merge' them, and add the word '----Qty----'.
Is it possible ?
Thank you,
