'Spreadsheet Table' component formatting

Hi,
I have an excel "block" of data that is formatted to the client's expectation. Is it possible to capture those specific formats using the Spreadsheet Table Component (or some other)? It appears that most of my formats are lost, especially the "Wrap Text".
Is there a way to wrap text using the Grid, List View, or Spreadsheet Table modules on Xcelsius 2008 SP3?
Thanks in advance!
-Phil

I dont think you can do this with any other component except Spreadsheet one. Try playing more with the spreadsheet table component
the only way i can think of is if you can delete all the text in that block of data and map the spreadsheet table on that - by doing this you will have the basic structure of that block of data and then you can use lables to do the formatting
hope it helps

Wrong format for spreadsheet table, list view, label component

I have a movie which is connected to a web service. The web service feeds into cells that are linked to a spreadsheet table component. The cells are properly formatted in excel and the fields show up fine when using static data. However, once I pull in data in preview mode or with a published movie the cells lose the desired format. I tested this with other components such as list view and label and get the same result. I do not see the same results with the mouse over values in a chart though. Anyone know what might be the problem?
Thanks for the help

Thanks for the response Andy.
The fields I use have the same uniform format so there is no dynamic formatting going on. I have read up on the rebind fix and have tried it but it doesn't seem to change things.
Here are the specifics of my situation. I paste some sample data returned from a query into the excel sheet. One of the fields is a percentage so I format those cells appropriately and the excel sheet reflects the change. I then bind the spreadsheet component to the cells containing the sample data. The percentage field is properly displayed on the canvas as well as when I go into preview mode. I now feed the cells with the sample data with a web service that uses the same query I used to generate the sample data. In preview mode the percentage cell now is unformatted and shows up looking like a decimal number. The same situation occurs for a label component bound to a single percentage cell. I even configure the label component to format the text as a percentage.

Currency format in Spreadsheet tables uses period's instead of comma's

Xcelsius 2008 SP3. I have inserted a spreadsheet table into my model, the columns are formatted in a currency format with $ and the thousand's separator that is displaying in the table is a period instead of a comma. Has anybody else seen this problem?

Hi,
yes, I`ve had the same behavior. As a workaround, you have to change the format of the cells.
Go into the properties of the cells:
-> Right mouse click
-> format cells
-> category
-> number
-> change something, e.g. the number of decimal places to show
Then you will have to map the component again to the same cells under "Display Data".
And now, the currency information will be shown correctly.

XCELSIUS-Comoponent Spreadsheet-table: formatting cells

Hi,
I don't see how to format Cells in a spreadsheet-table. For instance right right-justified. I would expect in the table the same format as defined in the excel-sheet. But spreadsheet-table doesn't care at all about these definitions in the EXCEL-Sheet. I used the template "Income sheet", and didn't succeed here either. What is the trick?
Best regards,
Alfred

Hey Alfred, you are right there is an issue with this component ..you need to re-align the component every time you make changes in the back end excel table. To get more info on this you can go through this article...

Spreadsheet tables not displaying properly

Ok. So I have finally managed to get my dashboard working. I have one issue that has cropped up. Before preview, my spreadsheet tables are displaying the ranges I am asking them to do, along with hiding unused cells. When preview runs, Xcelsius throws out the formats I specifically set the components up to do. I get a partial result of one piece of data, and a whole lot of "N/A"
Is there some setting I am missing? I am scratching my head as to why it works before preview, but not after? I can send over my work, if someone wants to see what I am seeing.
Thanks!

Ok. So I switched up to the List View Component. Again, before preview, the model is doing exactly what I am asking it to do. When the selector in the Accordion menu changes to a new investment, the other components that have to change are doing so. However, when the preview is run, the List View components are STILL breaking formatting and retuning a "#N/A" in all cells but the first row.
Why is Xcelsius doing this? I have checked my excel functions. They work. I have checked my links to the components. They work. I have checked the spreadsheet tabs with the related data tables. They work. There is NOTHING to explain why this damned program is deciding to give the finger to my components and not work on preview.
Please. I need help with this. I really am at a loss to understand why this is happening, and I am getting pretty angry about the decision to utilize this software.

Problem with text direction in table component for text with two language!

Hi,
I want to display text in table component by binding to the one property,and also the language of this text is farsi that must be in the RTL direction.
so i defined a direction in style of staticText component in the table.
when the text is only in farsi language ,it works correct but when the text has one or more words in english language ,format of the text changed and the words moved in text.
thanks

I can not understand relation between COM and HTML elements .
can you elaborate more ?
All HTML elements are accesable via DOM in browsers.
Indeed to change an element attribute in html files (in browser without server interaction) we use scripts to access DOM tree and then we change the element attribute.
for example when you write
document.forms[1].submit()
you accessing the element using DOM tree.
About Farsi problem , I think there is no solution for this problem , as you may know , when we mix RTL and LTR languages in one element text attribute , we have no control over its appearance.
If i understand your post , you want to show both rtl and ltr in one static Text , which is not doable in simple manner.
At least i can not offer you a simple way to solve this.

Jsf data table component + print null cell

I am using the jsf data table component and binding the column values to a backing bean.
<h:dataTable binding="#{backing_showDifferences.dataTable2}"
id="dataTable2">
<h:column binding="#{backing_showDifferences.userColumn1}"/>
<h:column binding="#{backing_showDifferences.userColumn2}"/>
<h:column binding="#{backing_showDifferences.userColumn3}"/>
</h:dataTable>
- some code from my showDifferences.java
HtmlOutputText column1Text = new HtmlOutputText();
vb =
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().createValueBinding("#{users.uclass}");
column1Text.setValueBinding("value", vb);
usercolumn1.getChildren().add(column1Text);
HtmlOutputText column2Text = new HtmlOutputText();
vb =
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().createValueBinding("#{users.ue1}");
column2Text.setValueBinding("value", vb);
usercolumn2.getChildren().add(column2Text);
HtmlOutputText column3Text = new HtmlOutputText();
vb =
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().createValueBinding("#{users.ue2}");
column3Text.setValueBinding("value", vb);
usercolumn3.getChildren().add(column3Text);
ResultSetDataModel dataModel = new ResultSetDataModel();
dataModel.setWrappedData(rs);
dataTable2.setValue(dataModel);
The raw HTML:
<table id="form1:dataTable2" class="iuptable" border="1">
<thead>
<tr>
<th scope="col">Heading 1</th>
<th scope="col">Heading 2</th>
<th scope="col">Heading3</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>some data in this column</td>
<td>X</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Some more data in this row</td>
<td>X</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
My problem is this...in the raw HTML the <td></td> tag is not formatted nicely on my table output. I have lines around my entire table and each cell within it. When the <td></td> prints there are no lines. I am new to the JSF table data component, but if I were writing some JSP or servlet code I would check that if value was null I would append an &nbsp to the <td> tag (ex. <td>&nbsp</td>) and the table would be formatted properly. The backing bean that I am binding to is pulling the data from a database table...so my sql looks like this:
SELECT uclass, ue1, ue2 from table1; my problem is when ue1 or ue2 is a null value.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
the h:dataTable belongs to the JSF Reference Implementation from Sun, not to Oracle ADF Faces. The rendering is within this component set and I suggest to report your issue on one of the SUN forums (http://forum.java.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=427) as we have no handle to e.g. fix an issue if it exists in the component set.

About "table" component

Hello experts,
I want to confirm a issue.
Does "table" component can rilize the format as follow via "binding" action ?
field name
standard value
value
description
fieldname1
fieldname2
fieldname3
fieldname4
fieldname5
If not, how to relize it via development?
Any sugesstion is welcome !
Best Regards,
Chen Jianguo

Hi,
If the lines __________ are coming from backend itself, and you want table in this format only, then make 'gridMode' property of your Table UI Element to 'none'..
Or If you want to check values and put lines manually,
then you should write code as
int size=wdContext.node<TableNode>().size();
for(int i=0;i<size;i++)
if(wdContext.node<TableNode>().get<TableNodeElementAt(i).get<value1>==null>)
wdContext.node<TableNode>().get<TableNodeElementAt(i).set<Value1>("__________");
