How to wrap the text in a label component

I'm displaying a text in the label component and the output is displayed on the plasma display(It is a java application running on a pc and output is given to plasma display). But the text size is more and getting cut at the edge on the display. How can I wrap the text automatically.

How to wrap the text in column headers?

Hi Friends,
Can anyone please suggest how to wrap the text in column headers of a Java WebDynpro table?
I believe that caption is the only UI element that a column header can have and it does not allow wrapping of the text.
My original requirement is as follows,
In a table I need to dynamically set the width of the columns according to the width configured by the user in some other view. All the columns of the table are dynamically rendered.
Now what happens is when the user sets the width of the column to a rather low value, say 15 pixels, then the column is displayed like
Supplier Catalog Name
Sheila
Catalog
Name
Dropdown
As you can see it looks rather odd.
Supplier Catalog Name is the header of the column and I use IWDCaption for header.
Sheila Catalog Name Dropdown is the value of a particular row at the specified column. I am using a TextView as the TableCellEditor.
I think what is happening here is that the framework wraps the text in the TextView according to the width specified (15px) and then the column width is extended because it can not accommodate the text (Supplier Catalog Name ) of the column header.
We are using SAP NetWeaver Development Studio 7.0.12 as the IDE.
I searched some forums and many people have suggested using scrollable columns but I don't understand how it will help in wrapping the text in a column header.
Any help would be of great advantage.
Thanks
Amit

Hi Deepti,
Thanks a lot for the answer but the option that you have specified does not wrap the text. Instead it truncates the text being displayed and only the substring of the text which could be displayed in the given pixels is displayed.
I need to show the whole text wrapped (Meaning if the width of the column is not sufficient then the text goes into the next line).
Ayyapparaj,
Thanks to you too for an helpful answer. It seems that the Netweaver has finally come up with a way to wrap the text in the column headers but as Manoj pointed out, I do not see the property headerTextWrapping for a table column, Can you please specify which version of netweaver supports it?

How to wrap the text in JTextPane

hi all,
I have a problem with JTextPane. I have a JPanel which have 4 JButtons, one Details button and one JTextPane. I have set JTextPane to JScrollPane. Thing is when i press the Details button the JTextPane must be visible. Window size is changing. can any one say how to wrap the text in the JTextPane.

By default text in a JTextPane will wrap, so I don't understand the question.
Read the Swing tutorial on [url http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/text.html]Using Text Components for a working example.

Hi All,
I'm displaying some list of goimagelinks, for which the information is being retrieved from the database. Now to align the width in between the imagelinks properly, I need to wrap the text of the go image link. Any suggestions, will help me a lot.
Thanks All in Advance. Below is the code snippet for the same.

How to get the text in a label which is imbeded in a JTextPane

I have created a JTextPane that has 5 JLabels inserted in the text. I have attempted to get the text with the following code snippet.
Component[] lbl = new Componennt[DisplayLetterPane.getComponentCount()];
//         JTextPane DisplayLetterPane; is defined previously
         lbl = DisplayLetterPane.getComponents();
         int componentIndex = 0;
         String lblText = new String(((JLabel)lbl[componentIndex]).getText());I have run a dump of the sytledDocument of the JTextPane and I see the JLabel listed as a component.
When this snippet is executed I get the following:
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.ClassCastException: javax.swing.text.ComponentView$Invalidator
When I check the character where the component for the JLabel is located in the styled document it does not find an instanceof JLabel.
How can I get the text from the labels.
Thank you in advance!

JTextPane jtp = new JTextPane();
          for (int i = 0; i <5; i++) {
               jtp.add(new JLabel("labelText"+i));
          Component[] lbl = new Component[jtp.getComponentCount()];
//      JTextPane DisplayLetterPane; is defined previously
      lbl = jtp.getComponents();
      int componentIndex = 0;
      for (int i = 0; i < lbl.length; i++) {
           System.out.println(((JLabel)lbl).getText());
When I do like the above, it just works fine. Can u share a little bit more of your code?

How to wrap the text in a popup LOV item ( Apex 4.0 )

Hi
I have a popup LOV type item with a very long string value
I would like to format the item so itr will be shorter but have the string wrap to multiple lines.
Can you let me know how that can be achieved ?
thanks
O

Hmm.. I don't know about that.
I actually already managed to change the width of a specific popup element by putting the following in the region footer :
<script type="text/javascript">
$x('P3_CONTRACT').style.height="20px";
</script>
that works fine and only impacts that specific element.
However , Since I know next to nothing of HTML and Javascript , I could not figure out the code to put to make the text wrap.
your solution suggests that it will take care of the width , but will it cause the words to wrap ?
thanks
O

How to wrap the text in a jTextArea

Hello all,
I am currently developing a simple simulation program for our scientific research group. My boss asked me to employ the program with a GUI. However, I am new to Java Swing. It is nice to have you guys that may provide a helping hand to my problem.
My problem is with the jTextArea. Because my result to be displayed in jTextArea is lengthy and its length varies. The way I extract the result is to use a String to hold all of the results and directly pass it to the jTextArea. However, It is lope-sided and not quite user-friendly. Is there any function that I can use so that the text can be wrapped and that the user doesn't need to scroll left or right to view the results?
Thanks in advance(:

you're a developer (new to swing is irrelevant) and you don't know how to read the api docs?
there are only 6 set...() methods (apart from inherited) and what you want is 2 of them.

Wrapping the text on the confirmation dialog

Can any one pls tell me how to wrap the text on a confirmation dialog?
thanks in advance.
regards
Lakshminarayanan.V

Hi,
Currently this is simply not possible. Probably later TextView UI element will be enhanced to support this (at least, this feature is at "Whish List", search this forum for word POLL), and confirmation dialogs will inherit desired behavior automatically.
For now you have to create your own component and use it pop-over window as confirmation dialog. In your component you may either use TextArea for multi-line display (quick and ugly) or split string into several context attributes and display them using several TextView UI elements (either dynamically created or pre-created till some reasonable maximum, say, 5 lines <-> 5 controls)

How to change the text of label dynamically

Hi all,
I have done a dynpro program.It requires to implement the dynamically display the label text, for example: there is a label, sometimes, we want to display "Purchase Order" and sometimes we want to display "Sales Order". Can anyone tell me how to change the text of label according to my requirements? thanks in advance!

Hi Wei,
AS of now you will not be able to change the Text Field ( Label ) dynamically or at runtime. This is a limitation.Refer to this link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e4/2adbef449911d1949c0000e8353423/frameset.htm
But, there is a way around.
You can make a text field Visible / Invisible based on your program logic. So, based on what you want, you can process a module which will take care of that.
Have a look at these DEMO Code. You can have a good idea to implement the logic.

How to wrap the heading text in alv.

HI all,
I need help, how to wrap the heading text in alv.
can any help ... plz..
Advanced Thanks
Regards
GUhapriyan

Hello GuhaPriyan,
I assume that you're referring to the ALV Grid's title. The maximum length for this title is 70 characters and this would generally fit in the one line.
Are you intending to wrap it because you purposefully want the text to come in two lines? In that case, I'm not sure that it's possible.
But otherwise, there's an option in the Layout called SMALLTITLE. You can set this attribute so that the title would be displayed in a amaller font and hopefully, all of your text shows up on the screen.

How to change the size of the text inside a label?

Hello,
I would like to change the size of the text inside a label.
Is there any way to do it Web DynPro?

Hello Roy,
Not possible. WDLabelDesign contains only 2 values: STANDARD and LIGHT. As workaround you can use TextView. It supports a lot of "designs" (e.g. label_small).
Best regards, Maksim Rashchynski.

How to set the text of a cell in Numbers to vertical direction? Tks.

Hi
In Numbers, please tell me how to switch the text of a cell to vertical direction?
Tks.

Hi Kyle,
In Numbers, nothing having to do with a table can be rotated. (In Pages an entire Table can be rotated, but not text within a Table.)
There have been many suggestions posted here over the life of iWork for vertical labels. Most fall into three categories:
1. Type one letter, Option-Return, type another letter, Option-Return, and so forth.
2. Type label in a Text Box, rotate the box, position the box over the table, covering the cell where you need a label.
3. Create a PDF graphic with rotated text and insert it into table cell as Background Fill.
The third option is clearly the best. The steps for option three are:
Insert Text Box
Type label into the box
Rotate the text box
Select the text box (not the text inside the box)
Command-C
Switch to Preview.app
Command-N
Command-C
Switch to Numbers
Click on Cell where the label goes
Command-V
It sounds worse than it is. You can reuse the Text Box so you don't end up with a sheet full of them.
Regards,
Jerry

How do I force text in a label to be centered???

How can I outline the text in a label?
I can't find a setHorizontalAlginment method or something similar.
