Right-justify number columns in BC4J

I have several JSP pages that I am using BC4J tags in. I want to right justify all dollar columns. In addition, I want some columns to have a default width regardless of the data in them. For instance, even if a column has 'Test' in it, I want it to have a display width of 50.
How can I accomplish these two things?
Thanks,
Brett

Sounds like you might want to add properties to the attributes in your VO. If you set up some properties to hold values for alignment and width for each column, you can just interogate these values when you render the JSP and writre them into the HTML.

Pda right justify number WM5.0 and LV PDA 8.0

Hi :
I'm trying to Right-justify a number indicator (U32) on my PDA application but I'm having hard time achieveing this ... I have tried what this thread suggests and it doesn't work ... I'm using WM 5.0 and LV 8.0 so that might have something to do with it. Any suggestions or solutions? I've thought of converting the display to a string and pad the left side with spaces, but I would rather not do that ... thanks in advance.

Right Justify a column in a JTable

Hello,
I formatted a decimal number and want to put it into a column in a JTable. Unfortunately, the value is being left justified. How do I make the data for the column right justitified?

Thank you both for your answers. I had looked in the tutorial, but could not find the area for justifications. I did have a table model with a getColumnClass too, but didnt realize that I didnt have to use the actual data type's class to render the justification.
Looking back at the tutorial, I now find that ImageIcon is supposed to be used for centering, but this didnt work. It wiped out the data for the column I tried to use it on rather than justifying it left or right. Any ideas how to get centering to work?

Right-justify column name

Hello Gurus
I would like to right-justify the column heading. How can I do this? Specifically, this refers to the Quantity field in the Items assignment block in the Opportunities Overview screen.

Try using LPAD like
select lpad(object_name,30) from all_objects where rownum < 20;

How to get search help results in RIGHT-JUSTIFIED column

I am writing a search help with search help exit. Therefore, I use a table lets say tabA. I don't need all fields of tabA but need some further fields which I fill during exit.
tabA does not have currency or number fields.
I need a currency field and use a char20 field of tabA instead. filling of this field and showing results is o.k., but of-course it is shown left-justified.
I did not find any fields of shlp-fielddescr which sounds like left/centered/right-alignment. Another try was to fill char20 field with leading '_' signs - that looked terrible and was not right-justified either, because of not fixed-size font.
Let's resume: there is no number or currency field which I can use. The shown results appear in a column of not fixed-size font.
Any other idea?

Hi, I have the same problem. Did you get to resolve it? . Thanks

Ideally, you would just use a tab as delimiter and change the justification in the other program as needed. For example in MS word you can define how the tabs are justified.
If you want the data right justified in simple text displays (wordpad, notepad), you just need to ensure that the field width is sufficient for the widest data.
Try e.g. a format specifier of "%#15_6f' (and make sure that you use a fixed width font for display!)

Sort options right justified in list view

New to Maverick's, but I can't get my finder window to "stick" with the layout of the "sort options". My biggest beef is that I have the "Name" sort far left followed by "Date modified", etc.. yet every day in every new finder window, the 2nd sort jumps to right justified. I want this sort option to stick to the left alongside name. I use large monitors and scrolling over everytime to drag the sort modifier to the left is frustrating. Is there a solution?

My guess would be the Images folder (Pictures in English) is designed to have the special, contextual grouping types.
I don't know why they couldn't make them available in the dropdown menu, also, but they're not.
I did a little testing and found if I called it Pictures unsorted, the options were available, but if I called the folder unsorted Pictures, they weren't.
Try naming the folder starting with Images
Edit: If I select the dimension and resolution column headers in the folder, then change the name of the folder, the columns are retained.

My "Messages" are all right justified. How do I get them left justified?

My "Messages" are all right justified. How do I get them left justified?

Hi,
To be clear and for other readers, Messages has dropped the number of Styles to three.
Compact and Boxes are styles that have you and the Chatee on the left and the messages themselves are left justified.
Balloons is the default (Speech bubble stylee), as mentioned, and your part of the chat or conversation is on the right but is also Right Justified.

Lpad .. correct use to right justify a char field?

Hi all,
I have a column that's a char type, and I'm trying to manipulate justification within it.
SQL> create table test (test char(14));
Table created.
SQL> insert into test values (' 001234567890');
1 row created.
SQL> select * from test;
TEST
001234567890
..I have no probs making it left justified using ltrim
SQL> update test set test=ltrim(test);
1 row updated.
SQL> select * from test;
TEST
001234567890
...but when I try to right justify using lpad I can't get it to work:
SQL> update test set test=lpad(test,14,' ');
1 row updated.
SQL> select * from test;
TEST
001234567890
..this should pad the column with blanks to make the string 14 in length right?
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks !
Adam

Hi, Adam,
A CHAR (14) column is always 14 characters long. If you insert a shorter string, it is automatically RPADded.
If LENGTH (test) = 14, then
lpad(test,14,' ')
simply returns test. So your UPDATE statement is equivalent to
update test set test= test;
Every row will get UPDATEd, but nothing will get changed.
To have the strings left-padded, use LPAD before INSERTing, or use UPDATE wtih LPAD and TRIM, like this:
UPDATE test
SET     test = LPAD ( RTRIM (test)
                    , 14
                    );

Object Version Number column

Hi all,
In the OAF dev guide,they have given some information on object version number column which can be used to store the version of the row data entered.
This can be achieved by mapping a attribute to ObjectVersionNumber attribute.
I tried mapping it i didn't see any attribute with the name ObjectVersionNumber in the BC4j EO wizard.
Can somebody please give more information on this
And do correct me if i gone wrong somewhere
Thanks in advance

Another use of this column is to maintain the history record. So each time you update the record, another record with same primary key, but with an increased OVN.

Right justified data into internal table

**Hello Gurus,**
I have an Internal table having data
abc          10.00;   20.00    30.00
def           20.00    00.00     40.00
Total        30.00    20.00     70.00
I want to align my "Total" word to be right justified.
and if the particular column is having "00.00"; amount it should not be display.
and i want to bold the particular row only. i.e. my "Total" should be bold.
can anybody help me to resolve this problem
Thanks in adv.
Kaustubh

Hi Kaustubh,
As Vijay said, you can specify your display conditions in ALV as the snippet shows...But, In fact u need not even populate the total field in the third row...
While creating the field catalog, just assign 'X' to the do_sum option in the field catalog...then simply pass the internal table containing the first two records in to the REUSE_ALV* FMs and the ALV would sum these columns up and show the total in standard formatting...saves you a lot of code
Eg. Lets say your fieldcatalog structure is wa_fieldcat and its table is it_fieldcat...u will need to do this while preparing the fcat...
WA_FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME = 'WA_ITAB-COL1'. --> the field u want to sum.
WA_FIELDCAT-TABNAME = 'ITAB'. --> Your Internal Table
WA_FIELDCAT-DO_SUM = 'X'.
APPEND WA_FIELDCAT TO IT_FIELDCAT.
CLEAR WA_FIELDCAT.
WA_FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME = 'WA_ITAB-COL2'.
WA_FIELDCAT-TABNAME = 'ITAB'.
WA_FIELDCAT-DO_SUM = 'X'.
APPEND WA_FIELDCAT TO IT_FIELDCAT.
CLEAR WA_FIELDCAT.
The FM would then generate the ALV with the columns summed up at the bottom. The best part is it takes care of the currency and quantity reference too...
Hope it helps out...
Regards...Jaison

How can the numbers in numbered lists be right-justified?

In numbered lists, the numbers are by default left-justified. Is there a way to make the numbers in a given list right-justified, so the periods line up? Is there a way to change the default?

As a writer, I also need to be able to have the numbers in a list line up in an acceptable word processing way, so that the decimal points line up when you get to 2 digits.
8.
9.
10.
I do not want it to look like this. I have had to work around by numbering a long list with alphabet letters.
On another occasion, I created my list using 2 columns in numbers, where the numbers automatically right justify. Then pasted it into my pages document.
I don't want to have to do that. AND I don't want to have to deal with tabs. I should be able to handle this in Preferences, or Inspector, where I handle most everything else. If I can, I can't figure it out, and there doesn't seem to be a help in the manual or Help menu.
Perhaps I'm out of date and it is now proper to not have the decimal point line up???? Don't think so.
