Minimum Row Height in Dreamweaver?

Hello everyone,
Apologies first of all if this seems like a silly question or one with an obvious answer. Please bear with me and help me if you can!
I have a table in Dreamweaver. I'd like one of the rows in it to be a particular height. When it is just a single row not divided into any cells, I seem to be able to manipulate the height as I want, but when I divide it into cells, as I would like to, I can seem to reduce it in height to anything below around, I believe, 20px.
This is too wide for what I would like. Is there some way of reducing the width of the row what it's divided into cells, or is this minimum height something which is fixed?
Thank you very much in advance for any help you're able to offer me on this.
Best wishes,
Jack.

There is no such valid construction in HTML.
but when I divide it into cells, as I would like to, I can seem to reduce it in height to anything below around, I believe, 20px.

Hmm - are we talking height or width? This sounds confused.
The problem you are struggling with, though, would be immediately apparent if you glanced at the code. Each cell is automatically populated with " " or a non-breaking space. DW does this so that the cell will still be shown with borders and background color (if there are either specified). If you would remove the non-breaking space, then you could run both the height and width down to zero (only possible in a 1 row by 1 column table. Otherwise, the other cells in the row will determine the minimum height, and the other cells in the column will determine the minimum width for any given cell.
I have to ask - why are you using tables?

Min. row height table style

A new table in Indesign is by default set with a minimum row height of 1.058 mm. This 'minimum' feature is also visible in a table style (the 'exact' feature is not for some reason). When I import a table from Word for example, it's row height might be different. For example a certain row had a height of 25 mm. So I applied the cell style to it where I set the 'min' rowheight to 1.058 mm. However, the row height still remains 25 mm. This doesn't only happen to imported tables. I've inserted a new table in indesign. This had a row height of 1.058 by default. Then I dragged a row heigher to 40 mm for example. Then I applied the cell style again with 'min' set to 1.058. The row height should turn to 1.058 but it remains 40 mm. Why can't I apply a rowheight in a cell style? Now I have to convert a table to text and then back to table again to get the default rowheight back.

If you want to force it to be a certain height, you should change "At Least" to "Exactly." "At Least" does just what it says it does—it sets a minimum for the row height, but lets the max vary. It should like you want to rows to be "exactly" a certain height, even if it causes text to become overset.
You should also be able to change your defaults when you have no documents open if you prefer it to work differently.

Table Row Heights

Hi
I am using Indesign CS3 SDK on Windows.
I am trying to use GetRowHeights() of TableGeometry to get height of multiple rows. I am getting Minimum Row Height * Number of rows, and not the actual height.
Can anybody tell me how to get the exact height of these rows?

In BO XIR3.1 the row height does not appear to be based on individual rows. Instead the row height is the same for each row in the table. Is there some setting that I need to adjust here?

Design view: huge row heights

Occasionally, a page which previews perfectly in a browser,
appears in Dreamweaver MX design view as if I had set huge row
heights, and the cursor looks about 2 inches tall. Once the page
renders this way, I can't ever see it correctly again. I have tried
cut&pasting the code to a new page, and it looks fine until I
save it, then it blows out again in design view. It still looks
fine in a browser.
Here is a screenshot of how it looks.
http://www.easternhealth.org.au/samples/spacing.html
Any idea of what is causing this and how to fix it? It also
happens on a work colleague's computer, using Dreamweaver 8.
Many thanks for any help.

DMX 6.0 or DMX6.1?
DMX was not the brightest bulb on the string when it came to
layout
rendering.... But your image looks like you have jiggered the
line heights
somehow. We would need to see the code for the page to go
further.

Specify row height in table using html?

How do I accurately specify row heights in html for use in rich text emails? The row heights tend to grow in height (approx 20px) when tested in Thunderbird. I want the row heigth to be 1px high. Please see a line of code below:
HTML 4.01 Transitional
<td height="1" bgcolor="#999999"></td>

The old school method was to use clearpixel.gifs as space holders.

Report Generation: what determine row height?

When using the standard report generation vis, and I append a table, what determines the height of the rows? You can set the column width, but even down into all the vis, I don't see any way to control this.
This is in Labview 8.5.1

I have a Zebra printer I am trying to print to and it seems like the row height is determined from just the text length. Even if the column width is plenty wide enough. But if I send it to a regular Canon printer the table seems to print fine.

Report Row Height and Column Width

Hi,
I have a cell in a report (a description column) that causes the row height to become very large (when there is a lot of text in the description). I can make the column wider on the report attributes page, but there doesn't seem to be any place to influence the maximum height of a row on a report, short of modifying the template.
Adding style attributes (e.g. max-height:30px) to an element only affects the <span> that the element resides in, not the table cell or row.
Displaying the column as a text area is a useful workaround. The downside is the border and scroll bars do waste a lot of screen real estate. Does there exist some other way of setting a limit on the height and/or width of a report, report column or report row?
Oh, and another question- how do make line breaks in this forum? There's no support for <BR> or [br].

Please reply to this thread, my customer is facing the same issue. He does not have issue with the excel and the pdf output but in the rtf output the table heght increases to accomadate the data.He want it to bevave in the same way as the pdf do.

Ajay

Report Generation Toolkit Table Row Height-MS Word

I am having trouble setting the table row height in the report generation toolkit. I can set the column width fine, but the row height seems to remain the same no matter what I set it to. I have attached the VI that generates and formats the table, and the printout it is resulting in. I have also attached the template file I am using.
Any tips to get this to work right? I am trying to make the cells exactly the same height as the text inside.
Solved!

Hi,
So I tried .2 and it didn't work. So I went to Word to manually change it, and it did not work either. There is a selection box in word, for the table properties, that seems to default to the value "at least". When I changed this manually to "exactly" in word, no problem with the .2 manually in Word.
Hopefully this can be set within the template, for all new inserted tables. I'm not sure the report generator VI's expose this property. Well, this is a start for the issue.
Edit ****
You can go into the add table VI and expose the property. See pic. However, you have to decide if you want to "upgrade" this VI permanently to expose this property or make a copy with the property exposed. I haven't messed with the new class reports too much, so not sure of the ins and outs with this.
I think this is the issue with the row size becoming smaller.

Interactive Report Column Headings and Row Height

I am using the div style="width:350px;" method to control the width of columns in various interactive reports. That works fine except for the following:
1. When creating filters, the <div...> stuff shows up along with the actual column heading, thus confusing some end users
2. Even when I uncheck the "Use same text for single row view" checkbox and then provide a simple single row view label, the <div> stuff still shows up on the single row view
Does anyone have a better solution?
Also, does anyone know of a way to limit the row height within an interactive report row? I have some columns of data that contain a large amount of HTML data and I'd like to be able to limit the number of rows that show on the report.
Is Oracle planning to provide some better control over the Interactive Report columns in another version? The Interactive Report is such a huge improvement in usability in APEX - it would be great to take it to another level by providing some better control over column width and row height.

Dale,
Unfortunately we don't have much we can use to do what you would like. I would have said it's impossible until version 4 but you could actually do something similar to what Roel has done. His trick is in the edit button. He changed the edit button to use an "onload" call to a JavaScript process. You could do the same but call a process that goes across the rows and styles each column. Now because you don't have a way to identify the column (can't use the order because the end user could change it) you'll have to write the code to look at the top row first and then style the appropriate column. As far as I can tell, this would be quite difficult and inefficient. Having said that if you need it that bad and would like some help with it, put up an example application on apex.oracle.com and provide the workspace/username/password and I'll take a look.

Different row heights in one table - is this possible?

I want the height of each row in a table to be set to fit the contents of that particular row.
The column which drives the cell height uses the cell formatting options "Wrap Text" and "Row by Row Auto Fit". These options will set the row height of all rows to that which fits the tallest cell. What I prefer is to have one row height be 4, if that's all it needs, while the next row may have a height of 32 because of a long line of wrapped text.
Can this be done with DeskI XI 3.1?

In BO XIR3.1 the row height does not appear to be based on individual rows. Instead the row height is the same for each row in the table. Is there some setting that I need to adjust here?

Dynamically adjust table row height based on data in column

Hi all,
I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.1.5.0 and have a requirement for a table to adjust the height of its rows depending on the data in the columns. One of the columns in the table is a rich text description field and I have the 'rows' property set to 13. This field could have twenty lines of text/images or just one. The users would like the page to show all twenty lines of text without having to scroll but the table has the same height for all the rows (that I set to 13) and provides a scroll bar when the data exceeds this size. My users do not like to scroll, and want the height of each row to be determined by the data in it. I looked at a few options and also did a search online, but was unable to find anything to fulfill this requirement. Do you know of how I could change the height of each row in the table so that it fits the data that it holds?
I have an example of my table at: <b>Table with Set Row Height</b>
As you see, the picture has to be scrolled so that the whole picture is visible. The user requirement is to adjust the row height to show the full picture. Ideally the next two rows would shrink, but that would be a nice to have.
Thanks in advance for any pointers or help.

Hi Frank,
Thank you for replying to my question, I truly appreciate your help.
I tried to use the autoHeightRows to adjust the height of my rows but was unsuccessful. If I understand the autoHeightRows property correctly, this is used for setting the height of the whole table. If this is incorrect and it can be used for setting the height of individual rows in the table, please correct me. I have the 'Rows' property of the richTextEditor set to 13 and this is the height that I would like to make dynamic based on the data.
My users requirement is for the height to be big enough for the data in each row of the table (the table has a description column and the height of each row should be determined by the data contained in it). I updated my <u><b>Screen Shot</b></u> to show the desired layout and what is currently being generated though ADF (http://www.flickr.com/photos/87583386@N05/) .
I have three rows in the example (in actuality these are around 50) and the text in each row can vary. The users would like to see the full text/image in each row without having to scroll each row. Currently my table is within Panel Box, which is inside a PanelGroupLayout-Scroll which is in a PanelStretchLayout. I tried to put the table by itself with the autoHeightRow modifications you suggested but thsi did not help either. I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.6.
Is this possible with an ADF Table? If it is, is the autoHeight property the only one that I am setting incorrectly? If not, is there another component I can use to get the desired functionality? My users are very strict about this requirement and will not accept the application without this.
Thanks,

Openoffice 3.2 calc doesn't save row height in xls

Hi All,
I have upgraded to ooo 3.2 recently. I work with excels spreadsheets so I have to save files into xls. Suddenly I realized that Calc doesn't save custom row height, when I open the file all rows are displayed with default height. It worked in the previous version, pacman log: upgraded go-openoffice (3.1.1.5-1 -> 3.2.0.4-1)
I searched ooo forums, but didn't find anything.
update:
in case someone is interested, I have found a kind of work-around. Select sheet, Format / Rows / Optimal height -> increase value at least one step, in my case from 0.0 mm to 0.1 mm, then save. Reopen xls, rows will be displayed with the custom heights. Unfortunately one has to apply this workaround on every singe sheet in the workbook. :-/ No way I would do this with all my workbooks.

Workaround with downgrade: If someone successfully downgraded to 3.1.1 it wont start because depends on libjpeg.so.7.
1. Create a script somewhere in your PATH and make it executable:
#!/bin/bash
LD_PRELOAD=/var/tmp/libjpeg.so.7.0.0 soffice -calc "$1"
2. copy libjpeg.so.7.0.0 to the directory mentioned in the script (in this case /var/tmp)
3. in your file manager e.g. nautilus right click on the xls, choose properties / Open with / custom command, and use the script's name.

How to bind JTable row height to the maximum height of a the columns

How to decrease the row height in ALV Grid (OOPS).

HI Experts,
I have displayed ALV Grid using CL_GUI_ALV_GRID=>SET_TABLE_FOR_DISPLAY.
I want to decrease the row height and width.
Can any one suggest how to do this?
Regards,
Kumar.

Hi Kumar,
Row height it predefined and you won't change it, but you can adjust column width.
For that use field COL_OPT of layout structure ( type LVC_SLAYO ) to optimize all columns width, or set explicit width using field catalog, setting field OUTPUTLEN for certain column.
