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 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

How to set custom widths for a particular report column?

how could I set a custom width for a particular report column? Is there a way to do it using css?
Thank you.

Hi Leland,
I have tested this here: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=267:18]
All I have done is add the following into the report's Region Header:
<style type="text/css">
#apexir_EMPNO {width:200px}
#apexir_ENAME {width:200px}
#apexir_DEPTNO {width:200px}
.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA TR TD {height:100px;}
</style>The headers have all be set to be left-aligned. Each column should be 200px wide (even though I'm setting the width on the headers, it will be applied to the entire column unless a cell's contents is wider, in which case the column is made wider). The final entry above adjusts the height of all TDs within the IR table.

How do I set column width for a table?

I want to set the same width for all the columns in a particular table. Is there anyway of doing this without having to actually manually adjust each individual column?
Thanks

Select the column headers and drag across (A,B,C for example) then select between one of the columns (your pointer will change shape). Select and drag to the new width. All selected columns will change.
Regards,

How to set column width in GridPane in FXML?

Hi, Can someone please help on how to set the columnwidth in csv file using javacode.
I used FileWriter class to upload data into the csv file but csv file is taking default width while showing content. Is there a way to set the fixed column width or set width dinamically based on value?
>
The fields in CSV (Comma-Separated-Value) files are separated by commas; they do not have a fixed width.

How to set column width based on header width?

I have a column that will only hold 1 character. This is good, but I want the Column width to match the column header.
For example,
Currently I get:
select * from table;
I NAME
1 ROBERT
The problem is, I want the Column header spelled out (in this case it's just ID)
ID NAME
1 ROBERT
Better Yet,
if i did:
select ID "ID NUMBER", NAME "FIRST NAME" from table;
I'd like to see:
ID NUMBER FIRST NAME
1 ROBERT
(Centering the ID within the Column width would be good too, but that is "gravy")
Any thoughts? I've been trying:
COLUMN ID FORMAT A10 (which obviously didn't work!)
Thanks,
KSL.

If you use tags it'll be easier to see what formatting effects you're talking about.
Does <a href="http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10823/ch_six.htm"><tt>col id head "ID Number" format a9</tt></a> do what you want?

How to set column title for CL_SALV_TREE

Dear all,
I am using CL_SALV_TREE to create a report. But, some unexpected problem comes up. I have used below code to set the title for each column:
LR_COLUMNS = GR_TREE->GET_COLUMNS( ).
LR_COLUMN = LR_COLUMNS->GET_COLUMN( 'FIELDNAME' ).
LR_COLUMN->SET_LONG_TEXT( 'Long Text' ).
LR_COLUMN->SET_MEDIUM_TEXT( 'Medium Text' ).
LR_COLUMN->SET_SHORT_TEXT( 'Short Text' ).
But, it seems that above code does not take effect when report is running. The title for column remains the info of ABAP Dictionary. Is anyone can help me to resolve this problem? It's very urgent for me!
Looking forward to receiving your replies! Thank you very much!
Justin,

How to set initial column widths for a table

What I'd like to do is to control the initial column widths for a table.
I'm building the table by using a class which extends AbstractTableModel. This class takes care of setting the headers and reading the data for the table.
If I do the following:
VarTableModel vtm = new VarTableModel(vi);
JTable jt = new JTable(vtm);
JScrollPane jsp = new JScrollPane(jt);
frame.getContentPane().add(jsp);
frame.setVisible(true);
I will see a table in my window. The widths of the columns are equal and are a function of the horizontal dimension of the window.
I have tried to set the width of a column by doing the following:
TableColumn aColumn;
aColumn = jt.getColumn(vtm.getColumnName(0));
aColumn.setWidth(40);
But this has no effect on what gets displayed. I can force the widths that I want by using 'setMaxWidth' but this has the unfortunate side effect of not allowing the user to make the column wider if they want.
What I'd like is a way to specify the widths of the columns when initially displayed and then let the user adjust to their liking.
I'm sure that there is a way to do this, but I don't seem to understand where to intervene in the process to produce the effect that I want.
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Table.setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF);
add this line and try ur codeThanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to do the trick. Here is an abbreviated segment of my code:
vtm = new VarTableModel(vi);
JTable jt = new JTable(vtm);
// we want a horizontal scrollbar, so turn resizing off
// and we want to control column widths
jt.setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF);
aColumn = jt.getColumn(vtm.getColumnName(0));
aColumn.setWidth(40);
. // same kind of thing for each column
aColumn = jt.getColumn(vtm.getColumnName(4));
aColumn.setWidth(400);
JScrollPane jsp = new JScrollPane(jt);
frame.getContentPane().add(jsp);
frame.setVisible(true);
If I do the above, the table gets displayed with each of the five columns the exact same width. So, the sizing of the columns is happening somewhere else despite turning auto resizing off.
Where is that occurring and how can I intervene so that I can control the widths of the columns on initial display and still allow the user to adjust the widths if they so choose?

How to set columns for Zip Codes?

I am new to iMac and in my first week using trial version of Numbers. I work in sales and we do lots of mailings using merging of data and addresses for post cards, labels, etc.
I cannot see how to set columns to a zip code setting. All zips entered beginning with a 0 drop the front 0. I tried calling the column as Text, but it did not help. I can type a ' in from of the 0 and it works, but this takes an insane amount of time and will not work for us.
How do you deal with Zip Codes? Are there labeling options for mailing built into Numbers? I really want to dump all MS products but will have to drop mac and return buy Office if this is not correctable.
Thank you,
Brownie

Hello
Setting the column format to text do the trick on my french version too.
With AppleWorks, I was accustomed to use a zeroSlashed so it remained in my zip codes when I moved codes here and there.
