Spacing between columns

Hi,
In the forms ,I need to vary the width of columns and then rearrange it with proper spacing, is there any other way rather than manually doing it.
or in other word is there way to give the specified distance between two columns which can vary from column to column if column width are different.
For example width of column may be 60,80,20....
I am new to forms.please do suggest.
Thanks
Mandar.

thanks all your reply.
But Moazzam again to know x and y position you need to know the values so its kind of tidious job and can get messy at times if we have more number of columns.
the only way i get is doing it manually.
anyways Thank again for your reply
Mandar.

Pages-how to set spacing between columns

There used to be a spacing option between columns in Pages. How does one change that spacing now?

In Pages v5(.2), the column and gutter settings are located on the Format > Layout panel. The Gutter setting can be changed by double-clicking on its numeric value. If you have disabled the Equal column width check box, you can also directly change each Column width as you have the Gutter. Revealing the rulers from the View menu can improve the multicolumn layout process, as column indicators appear in the top ruler.

Need spacing between columns

I am having a time trying to get my three column to allow the background color and text to show between the columns.
You can see what I am speaking of with this link: http://digitalresponseoc.com/clients/casey/index3.html
When I float col 3 to the right it looks nice between center column and right column, but I can't seem to get the center column to "float" only in the center to allow the space between the left and center column.
I want the text to show through.
Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info. Your margin idea works great.
I have the Flash removed but the idea of using the container to show the background as seen at http://digitalresponseoc.com/clients/casey/index.html is giving me problems.
The background needs to be seen through the gaps in the columns.
I am learning more about stuff but I still need to figure out how to have the columns not shift when the browser is resized. argh.
Can you point me in a direction to learn how to do this.
Thanks

Spacing between columns in SQL*Plus

Is there a way to format a SQL*Plus report so
numeric columns are not preceeded by a space?
I've already have the setting SET COLSEP ''
but that doesn't work on the numeric fields.
I've also tried setting the column format
and converting the numbers to strings. Any
help will be much appreciated!!

Numeric values are preceeding with a blank because of the sign (which is not included in the definition number(3,2) = -9.99 to +9.99).
You need to convert to char and trim :
select trim(to_char(mynumber)) mynumber from mytable;

Variable Spacing Between Column Prompts

Hi,
I have a dashboard prompt. I have placed it vertically on the left side of page. I has columns from 3 dimensions. As soon as the columns for a particular dimension end i want to add some additional space before the columns of the other dimensions start. Is there any way to do that. I'm working on OBIEE 11.1.1.5.
Rgds,
RJ

That was a Layout Break in Pages '09 and has been chnaged in Pages 5 along with other 90+ features removed.

Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

6.1 vs 10.3: between column spacing

It appears that there is a slight difference in the spacing between columns in 6.1 and 10.3
Given that we use full column width images in each of our portlets, this is now causing us to have a minor horizontal scroll in the ballpark of 10 pixels in a 3 column layout.
Does anyone know where in the CSS the control is to set the spacing between columns?
Thanks!
Geoff

Found it!
6.1

</td>
<td colspan="1"><img src="http://dimension.marchofdimes.com/imageserver/plumtree/portal/public/img/sp.gif" alt="" border="0" align="absmiddle" height="1" width="5"/></td>
6.5
</td>
<td colspan="1" id="horizontalPaddingCell0"><img src="http://dimensiondev/imageserver/plumtree/portal/public/img/sp.gif" alt="" border="0" align="absmiddle" height="1" width="10"/></td>
This is how to fix the problem in the CSS (assuming you consider it a problem)
/* Set the following 2 attributes to adjust the spacing between columns */
#horizontalPaddingCell0 img{width:5px;}
#horizontalPaddingCell1 img{width:5px;}

How to make paragraphs line up between columns?

I want to make a 2 column chapter, with the text in each column in its own flow. But then I want some of the paragraphs to line up between columns.
So, like this:
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
yyyyyyyyy
yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
I'm assuming I can't use side heads to put the first column text in, because the info on the left goes on for multiple paragraphs, and I can't seem to line up a block of paragraphs with the baseline of the appropriate right column text.
I used to do this in tables, like this:
xxxxxxxxxx ! yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx ! yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx ! yyyyyyyyy
! yyyyyyyyy
! yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx !
xxxxxxxxxx !
xxxxxxxxxx !
xxxxxxxxxx ! yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx ! yyyyyyyyy
...where the gridlines between rows and columns would be hidden. However, I sometimes need to print just the right column, which meant I had to remove the table. It's a 600-page document, I was looking for a more elegant solution.
Any suggestions?
I am using FM8.0(266) on Windows XP.

If you take the sidehead approach that Niels suggest, you could do
this, but it would be a bit of maintenance.
Have your "xxxxx" flow content sit in text frames within anchored
frames. The anchored frames are then in a special conditionalized
paragraph ("z") in the *sidehead* before every "yyyy" flow section,
e.g.
z
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
yyyyyyyyy
yyyyyyyyy
z
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
z
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
xxxxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
The "z" paragraph is just a container for the anchored frames and
should contain no text.
When you hide the "z" tags, all of the "x" flow content will then
disappear as well. You'll have to manually customize the height of
each anchored frame/text frame pair though.
To adjust the spacings between the "y" flow to match at the bottom of
the anchored frames for the "x" flows, use the sidehead paratag ("Z")
and create space above overrides in this paragraph only to adjust the
vertical spacing to keep the x and y sections in sync. This way, you
have overrides confined to only one paratag.
To make maintenance easier, it might be worth creating a FrameScript
that would adjust the height of the anchored/text frame combo based
upon the amount of content in the instructor flow and then apply the
space above override to the anchoring paratag (z).

Spacing between sections on subform

Hello,
I have attached a file with the pdf print out. there are spacing between the sections, yet the section is trimmed and used as a subform to re-occur on the same page. what could be the issue?? I'm using a table as the row, and all columns contain fields that can can grow and shrink.
Is there a possibility (method) to let each section be adjacent to each other like an excel table?
Thank you,

Hello, thank you for your reply.
The problem is that i have three nested elements in the extract xml with variable amounts of these entries. This means that i can't remove the last subform. Yes i have checked the section in the last subform and it is 0.00 and Max from the top. The size of the section is was autosized, meaning that it is not bigger than the boundary of the table.
I hope this makes sense?
Thank you,

Pages 5: Spacing between bullets (not line spacing)

How can I control the spacing between bullets?
1. I clearly see how to control the spacing around a bullet relevant to its text. That's not what I'm referring to.
2. I clearly see how to set line spacing. That's not what I'm referring to.
What I'd like to do is keep a line spacing of 1.0 on the text, but add padding between list items (between bulleted content). The method in Pages '09 was to add buffer space "after the paragraph" (or before). However, in Pages 5.0 this option does not exist. Some of my bullets have enough content that wraps, which is why line spacing is not an acceptable solution.
How can I control spacing between bulleted list items, such that each chunk of content is better separated?
Thank you!

Silly me. I have located it, by expanding the Spacing menu. The control I'm looking for is right there.
I've included a screencap, in case anyone else misses the obvious like I have. Thanks for looking!

Need your help!.............thank you
Moderator message: wrong forum, please have a look in the dedicated "Web Dynpro ABAP" forum.
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Apr 15, 2011 10:17 PM

Hi anushree.,
If u are using matrix layout:
In Layout Data select MatrixHeadData to display UI in next line.,
If u want to give space between UI elements in the width enter 50, 60, 70 or what ever space u want.
Also in the vGutter u can select medium , large , medium with rule to give space between UI elements.
n if u want to give space between lines ., in the height enter 30 40 or whatever spacing between lines u want.,
Matrix layout is a good layout., and u can play with colspan , hAlign, vAlign, vGutter, width and height options.,
If u dont like the layout with these options then use Grid layout., where u can give custom spacing., with the help of Left Padding, Right Padding, Top Padding, Bottom Padding.
reply if u need some more clarifications.,
Thanks & Regards

Lightbox Slideshow adjust spacing between thumbnails

Hi
This is actually a two part question -
1. I want to give a collage look to my slideshow, without any spacing between thumbnails. How can I remove all the space between thumbnails.
2. For all the thumbnails I want -"Fit the frame proportionally" and for all the big lightbox images I want "Fit Content proportionally" so that vertical and horizontal images are not cropped in the Lightbox view. How can I do that for all the images together rather than going one by one.
Thanks in advance.
-MP

Hi MP,
For your 1st request, the Thumbnails (containers that hold the thumb images) cannot be resized individually and maintain same dimensions for all the thumbnails. For this reason, even though you can remove all spacing between Thumbnails by selecting the Thumbnail Container and specifying H and V Gutter in the Spacing Panel to 0 -- if your slideshow images are of mismatched dimensions and proportions and you have Fit Content Proportionally selected as the Fitting option, then there will be an inevitable space around the thumb images either vertically or horizontally. You can work around that by using the Fill Frame Proportionally option.
For your 2nd request. you can choose the appropriate option in the Flyout menu for "New Hero" and "New Thumbnail" options BEFORE adding the new images to the slideshow. The selection you make here will be applicable for images that you add after setting this option. So the appropriate workflow would be to setup your slideshow the way you want, then choose the appropriate option for New Hero and New Thumbnail and then add all your images to the slideshow.
If you want fine grained control over thumbnail and images, you may look at Composition Widgets which allow you to manually place and size all content individually and still allow you to use the composition as a slideshow upon publishing.
Thanks,
Vikas

How can i remove the line between columns?

I'm laying out poetry and I only want one column--even in landscape mode. But in landscape mode there's still the line between columns that cuts through my text. I've tried dragging the line, clicking on it and deleting it. When I click on it two Xes appear on the top and bottom, but they don't appear to do anything.

I did a little more reading of threads and now I understand the approach.
Go to View/Layouts and click on any of the layouts which appear on the left. At that point you will have access to the full page template and may make any and all changes you wish.
Keep in mind that some elements will be locked requiring an Arrange/Unlock command before you can eliminat them.
In the end it will be very easy to create completely customized layouts, including background images, rules, etc. etc.
Good luck with the poetry.

How to maintain spacing between 2 elements in webdynpro

Hi Experts,
I got 3 pushbutton. I am using matrix layout but spacing(distance) between 3 of these elements is not uniform.
Please help me to make spacing between them to be uniform.
Thanks & Regards,
Niki

Hi Niki,
Use Vgutter property of buttons, use medium or large to make distance between buttons.
OR
Use Invisible UI Element and place between buttons it will give gap, give width of invisible element to move.
Cheers,
Kris.
