Right Justify result...

Hello,
I have the following query that I am trying to right justify the number results. I've tried to change the number by using "to_char" so that it would automatically justify to the right, however this did not work. here is my query...
Select to_char(val_11, '9999999.99') where x = y
Please help if you can.
Thanks.

In what way isn't it right justified?
SQL> select to_char(1234, '999999.99') from dual;
TO_CHAR(12
1234.00
SQL>Formatting of output is dependant on the display environment, not the code producing the data.

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

KF at result row aligned right-justified, at total line row aligned left-ju

KF at result row aligned right-justified, but at total line row it's aligned left-justified. We have checked query/KF property in query design, but can't find the clue to fix it. How to make these two aligned at the same direction in either left justified or right justified?
Any idea?
Thanks

Hi Kevin,
In the Bex Tool bar, there is a button for Layout, and under it there is Alignment option. You can try with that though I am not sure if it will solve your purpose.

Left- and right-justifying with dot leaders in JLabel and JButton

Hi,
I am developing checklists using JLabel and JButton components and want to finish up with the text in each component looking something like the following (each line is a separate button/label):
ACTION No1............................RESPONSE No1
ACTION No2............................RESPONSE No2
ACTION No3............................RESPONSE No3
The idea is to have the �Action� text left-justified and the �Response� text right-justified with dot-leaders as shown.
Each text line will be put into its own fixed length label or button.
I plan to construct a string from text blocks �ACTION No1� and �RESPONSE No1� and add the calculated, exact no of dots in between to fill the space.
The text font can be fixed (e.g. Courier) or proportional (e.g. Arial).
My question is how to calculate the number of dots to add to fill the space for different fonts and font sizes.
I think that using FontMetrics could provide some help but am not sure how this would work.
Can anyone help.
Many tks
John

Hi,
I've developed your suggested code further to enable selected JLabels to be toggled visible(true/false) by pressing a JButton.
I'd like however that when a label is made invisible that the rest of the labels/buttons move up to fill the space left by the now invisible label and vice versa.
How do I do this, can you enlighten me on a solution?
Modified code included below. Not very elegant but serves to illustrate the point in question and only makes the label invisible.
Many tks
John

Right justify

Write a program to read text from a given file and reformat it so that the lines are no longer than a given maximum length. Instead of having it left justified with a ragged right have it right justified with a ragged left. Store the result in a file called "right", as well as displaying it on the screen.

I think you misunderstood the purpose of the Duke Dollars. Try to solve the problem by yourself (you'll have fun). Then, if you have a specific problem, come back to the forum and we'll be glad to help you.

Cursor Doesn't display in numeric right justified fields

We have an aplication that we deployed at a client. Normally the cursor blinks in the field that has focus. However, at this particular client the cursor doesn't show on numeric fields that are right justified. The user can type in the values though. Please help.

Hello,
Maybe you can increase the width of field.

FW: Caret Location Right Justified for LI when using HTMLEditorKit

It appears that when using the HTMLEditorKit and inserting any sort of list
item (ordered list or unordered list) into a view (while in edit mode), the
caret is initially *---------| right justified with respect to the bullet
image. If the identical html is loaded all at once however the caret is *-|
left justified with respect to the bullet image. Is this a bug in
HTMLEditorKit?

Sure it is. In this special case IBM's JDK does a better job (at least under Linux).
Generally I'm totally disappointed by the whole HTML package. I've been trying to implement a really primitive WYSIWIG-HTML-editor which understands <p>, <ul>, <h1> <b>, <i> and <a href>. It is a nightmare!
- Dynamically modifying the document's structure (e.g., by making a <li> out of a <p>) works more or less, but you have absolutely no control over caret movement, and different JDK's make it differently!
- The HTMLDocument inserts crude "extra-tags" (e.g., those <p-implied>'s. You never know exactly the structure of your document, and after a long debugging session you notice that the HTMLDocument was bluntly inserting yet another artificial element you did not specify. No docs at all what's going on.
- It is nearly unbelievable how complicated so simple things like
are internally modelled.
- Frankly spoken: The whole document model sucks. Has to be harmonized with XML, DOM, JDOM, and all those nice new technologies where Java does a good job (unless you need a GUI...)
If anybody has an idea to make it properly -> pls let me know
thx

How to Right Justify text on Ipod

My ipod has been through some wear and tear, long story short, the screen is "cracked" so to speak down the middle and from the middle of the screen to the left side i cannot see anything. I'm trying to figure out how to right justify all of the text so that i can actually use my ipod and search songs

You can't change the layout of any part of the iPod OS. Sorry. You might want to consider getting the screen replaced. There are lots of third party repair outfits that charge less than Apple to so the job.

Cursor not right-justifying in Oracle Forms 11.1.1.6.0

Hi All,
A user notice during testing that 'cursor not right-justifying' in a field on a form. There were not such problem in the old forms enviroment 10.1.2.0.2 and clients running JInitiator 1.3.1.22. The new forms enviroment is Oracle weblogic 10.3.6, Oracle forms and report 11.1.1.6.0, using forms demo pack cursorpos.jar and demo90.jar, have try the 11g demo pack but still the same problem, any ideas?
Thanks
Ola

A user notice during testing that 'cursor not right-justifying' in a field on a form.What exactly do you mean by "cursor not right-justifying"?
You will find noticable differences between the way the Oracle Jinitiiator and Oracle (Sun) Java work. Remember, the Jinitiator was based on the Sun JRE/JDK 1.3 and Forms 11g will be using either Java 1.6.0 or 1.7.0.

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.

Tab delimited and Right justified fields

Hi
My requirement is to produce an output file where the line items consists of 5 fields of variable lengths and all of them are tab delimited and right justified at the same time
for eg.
ABC 123456ghtje 4567.45678 67.45678 pqr
where all the values in the first field 'ABC' and 2nd field '123456ghtje' are right justified and are tab delimited and asme is the case for '4567.45678' , '67.45678' and 'pqr'
they are all separated from each other by a tab but are not fixed lengths
How can i achieve that ? i am using File Receiver Adapter ??
Can it be done without Adapter Module ?
Thanks
Dev

> they are all separated from each other by a tab but are not fixed lengths
When thay are not fixed length fields, why do you have to worry about left or right justification? In delimetted files, you would only have the delimitter between the fields. You do not need to fill spaces for justifying them.

Images in smart build open right justified

Has anyone else seen this.
I've just opened an existing Keynote08 file in 09. And all my smart build push images have become right justified and off center. I can't find anyway of putting them back into the center. Can anyone help?

Have a look here. Only workaround I have found is to re-do the build. Send feedback to Apple via the Keynote Menu.

GeneralHgrid.prepareForRendering(pageContext);
DataObjectList tableColumnFormats =GeneralHgrid.getColumnFormats();
DictionaryData tableColumnFormat = (oracle.cabo.ui.data.DictionaryData)tableColumnFormats.getItem(pageContext.findChildIndex(GeneralHgrid, "<item id of item attached in hgrid column>"));
tableColumnFormat.put(COLUMN_DATA_FORMAT_KEY, <enter format>);
