Hi Vadiv,
Try with this..
DATA: LR_IF_CONTROLLER TYPE REF TO IWCI_SALV_WD_TABLE,
LR_CMP_USAGE TYPE REF TO IF_WD_COMPONENT_USAGE,
LR_CMDL TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_CONFIG_TABLE,
LR_TABLE_SETTING TYPE REF TO IF_SALV_WD_TABLE_SETTINGS.
LR_CMP_USAGE = WD_THIS->WD_CPUSE_ALV( ).
IF LR_CMP_USAGE->HAS_ACTIVE_COMPONENT( ) IS INITIAL.
LR_CMP_USAGE->CREATE_COMPONENT( ).
ENDIF.
" get reference to the ALV model
LR_IF_CONTROLLER = WD_THIS->WD_CPIFC_ALV( ).
LR_CMDL = LR_IF_CONTROLLER->GET_MODEL( ).
LR_TABLE_SETTING ?= LR_CMDL.
" Set column width
DATA LR_COL TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_COLUMN.
LR_COL = LR_CMDL->IF_SALV_WD_COLUMN_SETTINGS~GET_COLUMN( 'PERNR' ).
LR_COL->SET_WIDTH( '70' ) .
LR_COL = LR_CMDL->IF_SALV_WD_COLUMN_SETTINGS~GET_COLUMN( 'ENAME' ).
LR_COL->SET_WIDTH( '100' ) .
LR_TABLE_SETTING->SET_FIXED_TABLE_LAYOUT( ABAP_TRUE ).
You can refer to webdynpro component SALV_WD_TEST_TABLE_PROPS. Go to the view TABLE and look inside the method SET_COLUMN_SETTINGS. I hope this will help you.
Cheers,
Kris.
