How to optimize the column width in Table Control

Hi all,
      When I am displaying fields in Table Control, the columns are displayed in full length, and I am unable to see all the fields at once.
So as in grid , where we optimize the column width using layout, do we had any property for TC to do so.
thanks for your help.
Points would be awarded .
Regards,
Anil .

Hi,
In Se51, you can do this one, ust open your table control and resize the TC, there is no direct option to do this for entire TC, you need to do this field by field, and arrage the TC to adjust in a Single screen. In the field parameters, you have the field lenghts, there you can minimize the length of a field

  • How to change the column width in Smartforms..?

    Hi All..
    I need to change the column width in a smartform.
    The requirement has been mentioned as follows...
    Adjust the column width of the following columns:
    MATERIAL: 14 char
    DESCRIPTION: 20 char
    How to perform this..??
    Where can i find the column width of various columns of a smartform..???
    Please Help me...
    Regards
    Pavan

    In the SMART Forms, you would have created a Table object and specified the line width and divided that into no. of columns that you want, you have to mandatorily specify the width of each column so that total of column width will be equal to that of the line width.
    When you double click on the Table object, you can TABLE tab on the right side. If you can't see the line / columns details, click on the DETAILS button.

  • How to set the column width of JTable

    I want do remember the column width and write it to a file, when the window is started , the column width is read from the file and the table is set as that. I also want the column width is not fixed and can be changed by mouse.But I am always failded.
    How to do? would you please help me!
    Thanks a lots.

    To "remember" the column widths, add a mouse listener to the table header. Upon mouseReleased(), get the column widths and save them to your file. When the application starts next time, get the stored widths and set them using:
    table.getColumn("XXX").setPreferredWidth(...);
    By default, your columns are adjustable, but you can use:
    table.getTableHeader().setResizingAllowed(true);

  • How to extract the column width in ALv report if its executed in background

    I am executing an ALV report in background , in front end i am getting data properly, in back end for some columns some of the digits are missing.For example if PO no is of 10 digits it will display only 8 becos column size is like that , how to extract coulmns in back ground.
    I have executed in background and checked the spool and  for some of the columns width is not sufficient to display comeplete data so please suggest how to extract the columns sizes if executed inj background for an ALV

    Hi Deepthi,
    you can try with the above mentioned suggestions ,if its worked its fine ,
    If not use Docking container instead of custom container, For ALV in back ground jobs, its suggest to use docking container instead of custom container , below you can find the declaration for docking container and code to use docking and custom container in your program for fore and back ground.
    or you can use docking container alone for both operations.
    Data : G_DOCK1 TYPE REF TO CL_GUI_DOCKING_CONTAINER,
    IF CCON IS INITIAL. (ccon is container name )
    *Check whether the program is run in batch or foreground
        IF CL_GUI_ALV_GRID=>OFFLINE( ) IS INITIAL.
    *Run in foreground

  • How to set the column width in the PDF exports of interactive reports ?

    Hello,
    I have a huge problem with the PDF export for the Interactive reports. I'm using APEX 3.2.
    I have to produce a PDF report in landscape format that show 21 columns. My problem is that the columns have a ridiculous short width and that the text inside the columns do not wrap in the columns. So I get things like that :
    Date Name
    2011 Leina
    I should see 2011-08-01 and the name Leinad Jan
    I tried several things to format the columns, but none of the them has any effect on the PDF itself.
    1) I used HTML code in the report query. It works well with the interactive report, but display the HTML tags in the PDF.
    2) I used css to set the width of my columns. It works in the interactive report, but not in the PDF, the column width do not change.
    It's like the report do not notice that my page format is Legal 14 x 8.5 (Landscape) and still believe it's 8.5 x 11 (which is "portrait")
    Do you have any idea so set the columkn widths in the reports ?
    Thank you !

    An yet you keep getting suggestions of how to set the focus.   I looked through the API documentation and I don't see anything that would suggest you can request to see where the current focus is.  Perhaps someone might still come along with a solution, but my hopes wouldn't be too high at this point.  I can pass the requirement onto Product Definition, as the use case does seem interesting.  Perhaps it is something we have even considered in the past. 
    But for now, there might be a better way to solve your problem.  It will probably mean redesign the interaction.  What exactly are your requirements?  Do you need to be able to get the data in a particular cell of table when a button is clicked?  Just throwing out some ideas here, but maybe just use the lead selection to select the row, but then have a button choice to choose the action associated with the column you want. A hack for sure - but it might work.  Also it doesn't help you right now, but in the near future update to NetWeaver 7.0, WDA does have a onColSelect event for the table.

  • How to read the field value from Table Control

    Hello Experts,
    I am creating my first Table Control Screen. Basically I have to create a screen (102) with a table control which has 2 fields: A_QTY, B_QTY and 2 Buttons: SAVE, EXIT.
    When Clicked on 'SAVE' the data (MATNR) from a previous screen (101)  and the data (A_QTY, B_QTY) from the new screen (102) should be saved into a Z-table.
    Internal table t_data has 3 fields.
    MATNR
    A_QTY
    B_QTY.
    Table Control TC_RACK was declared like this:
    controls tc_rack type tableview using screen 0102.
    I/0 Fields:
    A_QTY type ZQTY.
    B_QTY type ZQTY.
    The screen Flow Logic:
    process before output.
    module status_0102.
      loop at t_data into w_data with control tc_rack.
      endloop.
    process after input.
      module exit_0102 at exit-command.
      loop at tc_rack.
      endloop.
    module user_command_0102.
    module status_0102output.
      set pf-status 'STATUS_102'.
      set titlebar 'TITLE_102'.
      describe table t_rack lines tc_rack-lines.
    endmodule.                 "status_0102 output
    process after input.
    module user_command_0615 input.
    case ok_code.
       when 'SAVE_RK'.
       when others.
    endcase.
    endmodule.                 "user_command_0102 input
    Now for eg, when the users enter values for A_QTY and B_QTY like this:
    A_QTY     B_QTY
    1000         2000
    3000         4000
    How can I read these values and pass them to T_DATA so that I can save it into Z-table?
    I greatly appreciate your help.
    I've gone through some previously posted threads and could not understand because my knowledge in this area is preliminary.
    Thanks a lot.
    Could you please let me know
    Edited by: dev a on Jan 13, 2010 2:46 PM

    Hi dev a
    You should use
      DATA: lv_name(30) TYPE c.
      FIELD-SYMBOLS: <QTY> type ZQTY.
    GET CURSOR FIELD lv_name.   "Get the field name in table control
    check sy-subrc = 0.
    assign  (lv_name) to <QTY>.  "Here you get the value in <QTY>
    check sy-subrc = 0.
    Also use <your table control>-current_line to get the table index uo're currently on.
    Hint: Do not use GET CURSOR LINE if you want to get table index since this gives you the line relative to dialog screen
    Good luck

  • How do I set Column Width in table displayed - have tried everything :-(

    Hi,
    I'm using Jdev 10.1.2, adf bc and jsp's.
    Simple problem, driving me nuts. In my app i display a number of different view objects in a number of jsp's. i want to set the width of the columns so that the info (if large) in each field will stay on one line. i.e. it wont continue onto the next line and take up two rows.
    i have tried setting the width property of the <th> & <td>, setting the disply width property in the entity object editor and the view object editor, nothing makes a bit of difference to how the column is displayed.
    this results in the tables looking messy and squised, which is totally unsatisfactory.
    so if anyone could shed any light on the subject, i would be most grateful.
    Thanks in advance......

    hi Newbe,
    if you set the option noWrap="true" on the column the text will not be wrapped;
    <af:column noWrap="true" sortable="false" headerText="col5">
    <af:outputText value="#{row.col5}"/>
    </af:column>
    Good luck

    Hi Experts/Gurus,

    Hi Yugesh,
    For column wrapping you can use the SET_WRAPPING of cl_salv_wd_header and the data.....you have got cell editor for that column right...then using the cell edtior reference you can get the specific cell tyep(like cl_salv_wd_text_view type check this)
    this is object reference and you can use the set_wrapping of this class. using this you can get the wrapping functionality for the data also....
    DATA: lr_column TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column,
               lr_column_header type ref to cl_salv_wd_header,
               lr_editor type ref to cl_salv_wd_uie,
               lr_textview type ref to cl_salv_wd_uie_text_view.
    wd_this->alv_value->if_salv_wd_table_settings~set_fixed_table_layout( ABAP_TRUE ).
    lr_column = wd_this->alv_value->if_salv_wd_column_settings~get_column( 'EDITION' ).
    lr_column->set_width( '55' ).
    lr_column_header = lr_column->get_header( ).
    lr_column_header->set_wrapping( abap_true).
    lr_editor = lr_column->get_cell_editor( ).
