Resizing columns in table view

Hello,
I have defined a table view in a iView.
Now I want resize the width of a column.
In the 'Layout'-Tab of the iView I can see the table view. When I select the column I want to resize then there are small boxes around the column. It seems that they are supposed to resize the column. But if I klick and drag, nothing happens. The width of the column isn't changed.
Is there any way to change the width of a column?
Regards, Michael Teubner

Hi Michael,
You can't resize the width of column.
in theory, this is changed in the new version that everybody are waiting.

Display "Exception"-Columns in table views

Hello,
in my Visual Composer Storyboard I have a table view with 4 columns and an input form for the data selection.
When I deploy my application, I see the correct table view.
I fill out the input form with my selection.
Click on submit and the data will be load.
Suddenly I have 8 columns in my table view.
For Example the colums before data load:
Subcategory
Umsatz Vorjahr
Umsatz Aktuelles Jahr
Varianz
After data load
I have the following columns
Subcategory
Subcategroy_node
Subcategory_level
Umsatz Vorjahr
Umsatz Vorjahr_Exception
Umsatz Aktuelles Jahr
Umsatz Aktuelles Jahr_Exception
Varianz
Varianz_Execption
Have anybody an idea, how can I solve this problem ?
I don't want to display the exception columns.
Thanks
Regards
Thomas

Hi,
Select the output port of your data service and add the columns names you does not want to show in the table (like Umsatz Aktuelles Jahr_Exception) as virtual fields to dataservice output port. (Make sure of the correct upper/lower cases and datatypes).
Now your table list will have the fields, but, you can uncheck them so that it will not be displayed on runtime.

hi,
thanks for your replay,
yes i know that, you can check the following code it works fine.
actually what i want is, when i resize table column it shold not automaticaly reszie when table resized and i dont want horizontal scroll bar, meaning that all table columns should resize with in the table size(say width 300)
if i make table autoresize off than horizontal scroll bar will appear and the other columns moved and i want scroll to view other columns.
please suggest me some way doing it, i tried with doLayout() no help,
doLayout() method only can be used when table resizes. first off all i want to restrict table resizing with in the limited size

Can't auto-resize columns in List View

In 10.6 one could double-click the divider between columns to automatically have them resize to an optimal width. I can't do that. Is this intended behavior? Note: I'm not using the new "Arrange By..." feature which disables movement entirely.

Wow ! - I humbly apologise.
I have 3 different machines with Lion and so have my colleages.
For all of us the two vertical lines disappeared in Lion.
We can get a vertical stretch icon by hovering the mouse over the divider and double clicking this gives the same result.
We have 10.7.1 - so what gives?

Hide a column in one view, but show in other

Hi all.
I need to hide a column on "Table" view, but column needs to show up on "Pivot table".
I know we can hide it on pivot ( exclude It ) and show on table, but I want to know if reverse is possible.
This is needed because I am doing a view selector for writeback. And I dont want to display all the columns on writeback table view. But it needs to be there on Pivot table.
Please let me know if it is possible.
Thanks.
Vinay

Yes we can do that.
Check on the "Hide" in the column format tab of the column that you need to display in the table lay out.
Now dupliate the same view and in the pivot table column intially you will not see the column displayed.
Now in the properties check on "hidden" in the "format headings" and you wont see it still and now uncheck the"hidden" and you shoud be able to see the column displayed in the pivot view
In this way you will have the column hidden in the table view and displayed in the pivot table.
Hope it helps

How to color a table view header's text via css

I have managed to change font-name, background and text alignment of my table view header, but the text-fill line is just ignored! What's the correct way to do this?
Example:
.table-view .column-header, .table-view .filler {
-fx-text-fill: white;
-fx-font-family: "Helvetica";
-fx-font-size: 10px;
-fx-font-weight: bold;
-fx-size: 25;
-fx-border-style: solid;
-fx-border-insets: 0 1 1 0, 0 0 0 0;
-fx-border-width: 0.083333em, 0.083333em;
I also added:
.table-view.column-header.label{
-fx-text-fill: white;
Wich was recommended on a site, but didn't work either..

I think you need
.table-view .column-header .label{
-fx-text-fill: white;
}(with spaces between the class selectors).

At max how many columns is advisable to create in a table/view

Hi All,
I have two transaction table from which i want to create a simple view or materialized view. But the number of columns is about 200. So i want to know at max how many columns is advisable from the performance point of view.
Even though i will create 200 columns in a view , for a perticular client installation i may not use all the columns.
one more thing i will never use 200 columns in the select statement . At a time i will use only 4/5 columns.
It may happen from this four column one column will be the 1st and 2nd column will be the 200th one.
I want to know how it affects the performance and in which scenario . Please help if any body knows or already faced this kind of scenario.
I am using oracle 10g .

We are going to use this view in a report , so if i will create it as simple view it will affect report performance. because the view script is too long ...so every time quring to a view will decrease the performance.
Are you asking me if it will? I think it probably won't but of course you have the means to test it to be sure, right?
As u said MV should be done with minimum possible column . what can be the maximum column in MV ..??It would be defined by the limits on:
* The maximum number of columns that a table can contain
* The size of the query needed to define the select statement
* Limitations on queries needed to maintain the data

Dynamically Hiding Column in a Table View in VC Model

How to dynamacally hide the columns in a table view in a VC model. Through the expression in Control Property, Form element/field or table view as a whole can be made hidden, however, the individual column can not seem to be hidden.
I am using VC server version 700.8.0.1.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Kind Regards
Sanjoy

In this scenario, if the source is SAP BI, you can use the webapi commands. If not, you would have to have 2 separate tables in different layers and you can show and hide those layers or UI elements...

Ability to query on all columns from a view with multiple tables

I have view with 4 tables. view has about 50 columns.
hypothetically, I want to build a form to give the user an ability to query on any of those 50 columns. user can search on one or more fields.
what is the best way to write the query to retrieve the results without performance impact.
please let me know if the question is not clear.

If you want to permit them to query any of 10 fields with no restrictions, you could create 10 separate single-column indexes. The optimizer would have to try to pick the best of these indexes if you specified multiple search criteria. But since you have a view which presumably means that you've got multiple other indexes involved for the underlying join conditions, you'd probably want/need to combine the column lists of the indexes you're adding for searches with the indexes you've created for joins, which requires looking at the text of the view and figuring out the best way to optimize the 10 single-column searches. Of course, it is possible that the optimizer could chose to do something like a b-tree to bitmap conversion on multiple indexes which could allow it to use multiple independent indexes for your queries, but that's generally not ideal performance-wise.
All this is a fancy way of saying that there probably isn't a cut and dried answer to your question. You need to figure out the queries you're trying to optimize (say, the 10 single-condition queries) and you need to figure out what set of indexes on the various underlying tables provides the best performance weighing those benefits against the cost on other side of maintenance during DML. Which is going to depend on the text of the view, the underlying tables, the existing indexes, etc.

Lock rows and columns header in a table view report. It is possible?

hi,
I have a Dashboard that displays a report in "Table View" with many rows and columns.
Is it possible to set a lock on the rows and columns like Excel?
This would have blocked such headers that contain attributes and measures and to browse the report (eg with a scroll bar) had always viewed the headers.
Can you help me?
