Suddenly cannot adjust table width via sizing handles

I have found the cause of this, and it is rather bizarre:
Using Structured FM, 10.0.2.419, on a Windows 7 Ultimate (32-bit) OS.
Today I noticed I cannot resize table columns in the usual way, by selecting more than one row in the column and dragging the sizing handles that appear at the edge of the column.  The sizing handles appear there when rows are selected, but I cannot "grab" them.  Instead, when I try to click on a handle, the row selection is lost.  The table has no straddled columns or rows, no hidden/conditional text.  I have tried on several different types of tables all with the same non-result.  The document is otherwise editable.
I am forced to use the Resize Column dialog box, which is not so fast or easy as just grabbing the column edge and visually adjusting it.
I have rebooted my machine with no change in the problem.
====================
Resolution:
The problem appears to occur when I have various panels/pods open (and set to stay open, not iconify after use).  In this case I was working with conditional text, deleting some no-longer-used conditions from my documents.  I had three conditional text panels open in my workspace, ADD/EDIT CONDITION TAG, SHOW/HIDE CONDITIONAL TEXT, and CONDITIONAL TEXT.  The last two were "merged" into a single panel, and all panels were set permanently open using the double right-arrows in the panel dark frame at the top.
It turns out when I collapse some or all of these open panels, I can select the table resize handles and adjust the column widths visually.  When I have all three pod panels expanded, the resize handles are ungrabbable.
Forgive me if I'm not using "pod" and "panel" precisely accurately - I just use them (or more often try to work around them) rather than worrying about the names Adobe has chosen.  By giving users SO much flexibility, I personally think they have made an awful usability mess of the product.
In any case, the problem seems to be solved, and I am posting this in case it can be helpful to anyone else.
Thanks.

  • Adjusting table width in report

    Hi
    Is there an attribute which I can set to adjust the width of my tables or one of its columns? I have generated a report using IPMSG_USER_TABLE_FROM_SQL element. The plugin guide has no reference on this, but I noticed couple of reports under Reports main tab have custom column width. Currenly width of the table is governed by the width of the each individual column headers.
    Also is there a way using which I can browse the available oracle namespace which list all these elements/classes and their respective attributes.

  • Adjusting Column Widths Via the CSS in 6.5+

    It is pretty easy to adjust column widths in the CSS on 6.5+
    One issue that we encountered that was slightly trickier (for non-css folks like me) was ensuring that the columns were set at 100% for the 2 column layouts.
    The below code will set the narrow columns on 2/3 column layouts to be 200px wide, and ensure that the wide column maintains 100%
    .columnOne               { text-align: left;}
    .columnTwo               { text-align: center; }
    .columnThree               { text-align: left;width:200; }
    .layoutOneColumn               { table-layout: auto; }
    .layoutOneColumn .columnOne     { width: 100%; }
    .layoutTwoColumnNarrowWide     { table-layout: auto; }
    .layoutTwoColumnNarrowWide .columnOne          { }
    .layoutTwoColumnNarrowWide .columnOne .portletBody     {  }
    .layoutTwoColumnNarrowWide .columnTwo .portletBody     { background-color: #FFFFFF; }
    .layoutTwoColumnWideNarrow               { table-layout: auto; }
    .layoutTwoColumnWideNarrow .columnOne .portletBody     { background-color: #FFFFFF; }
    .layoutTwoColumnWideNarrow .columnTwo          {width: 200; }
    .layoutTwoColumnWideNarrow .columnTwo .portletBody     { width: 200; }
    .layoutThreeColumn                    { table-layout: auto; }
    .layoutThreeColumn .columnOne               { }
    .layoutThreeColumn .columnOne .portletBody          {  }
    .layoutThreeColumn .columnTwo .portletBody          { background-color: #FFFFFF; }
    .layoutThreeColumn .columnThree               { }
    .layoutThreeColumn .columnThree .portletBody          {  }
    /* Set the invisible image */
    #portletColumnFormatter_0 img {width:200px;}
    #portletColumnFormatter_1 img{width:100%;}
    #portletColumnFormatter_2 img{width:200px;}

    I don't understand?  I launch PSE 9 from the task bar.  This is the screen I get.
    I've tried right clicking everything I can think of w/o success.
    Once I click "organize", it's too late.  The organizer is coming up.
    Maybe I don't know for sure what the "Organizer icon" is or where it is?  Or, maybe I shouldn't start it from the task bar?

  • Text adjusting table width

    I have a table that I want to remain at a fixed width (I do
    not have it set to %), and I have 2 colums, the leftmost column
    being a sidebar, and a larger column to the right of that one for
    mainbody text. When I add the mainbody text, it changes the size of
    the sidebar column, does not wordwrap inside the cell, and will
    extend the width of the entire table if do not use hard returns to
    create a new line. Is there a way to get the text to wordwrap
    inside the cell, and keep it from adjusting the width of any
    portion of the table?

    > Is there a way to get the text to wordwrap inside the
    > cell, and keep it from adjusting the width of any

    Are you entering a long string of unbroken text (i.e., no
    spaces)? If so,
    then no, there's no way to prevent HTML tables from expanding
    to contain
    your content.

  • Cannot adjust display brightness via F-keys nor Preferences

    After updating Mavericks to 10.9.4, I cannot adjust the display brightness. Using the F1-2 keys will show the brightness icon that usually pops up. However, it's stuck and nothing happens when I press either F1 or F2 (the brightness keys).
    I tried going into Preferences and adjust the brightness from there. "Automatically adjust brightness" is not checked and when I drag the slider, it slides back to where it initially was.
    How can I fix this problem?
    Thank you in advance,

  • Cannot adjust page width to fit to screen size on some PCs with IE

    Hello friends, I am using APEX 4.0 and IE9 on different Windows 7 PCs . The page will go way off the screen to the right on one PC, and fits nicely inside the screen on another PC. This problem does not occur in Firefox on any PC. I have used Firebug to try to isolate the template or css settings. Using Theme_4, I have a breadcrumb region and 4 reports regions. One of the reports regions is in column 1 and 3 regions are in column 2. Display point is Page Template Body (3. Items above region content) for all the reports regions. The CSS is #themes/theme_4/css/theme_4_0.css. The template is One Level Tabs (Right Sidebar/Table Based). I tried various width="" using px and % under Edit Page Template-Definition-Body (see below). I tried style="width:800px" within the <div> tags. I have tried various other changes to theme_4_0.css and apex_4_0.css with no visible change to the page width on the obstinate PCs. I reset IE setting and deleted all personal settings on both PCs with no changes to either one, one fits on the screen and the other does not. The issue is that most of our users use IE so most of them will have to live with using the horizontal scroll bar to see the regions in column 2, unless we switch them all to Firefox (not a bad option, except that option works for our users only, we have no control over external browsers). I have tried suggestions from many discussion threads, as this problem has bothered us for quite some time. I know this is an IE problem, but any help is appreciated. Thank you.
    "|" represents screen size and "-" is the regions/content for the "bad" PCs.
    |----------|----------
    The "good" PCs look like this:

    I think your concerns are very reasonable. But I want to sort of refocus things a little bit for you here... it's not really a PC vs Mac issue... Rather, it's specifically an Internet Explorer issue. And you might say that this is synonymous...still 98% of the world uses IE, and you would be correct. Hopefully when the final version of IE7 comes out, it will finally embrace some of the modern day OPEN web standards without trying to make too many standards of its own (this is Microsoft, though).
    Anyways, in the meantime, I guess we all try to make the best of it. It's very easy to conclude that iWeb is not a viable tool for you, as long as you have something else to "fall back" on. With my limited knowledge of all things HTML, I have no such luxury. Instead, I have put up a notice on my site for IE users only that the site might not look its best on IE....this notice also encourages IE users to use FireFox, which is very much like Safari and will in 99% of cases display your iWeb pages just like you expect. You can see how I've done this here (but you have to surf from IE)... http://blog.dirtdoog.com
    I think many people in the PC world understand the limitations of IE. Certainly many don't, but you have to consider your likely audience, I guess. I believe that your website content is king. If your content is compelling enough to your intended audience, they will jump through hoops to see it in its full glory....but you have to make them aware of the problem. That's why I have chosen to take the path that I have taken.
    Let me know what you think.

    Here's a troubleshooting article from Apple:  iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
    It doesn't seem to cover your specific issue, but have you tried using a different network (either a different wi-fi network, or switching from wi-fi to cellular or vice-versa if you have a wi-fi+cellular iPad)?
    For GMail, iCloud and Yahoo, copies of messages are stored on their respective servers, so you could try deleting the account on your iPad, then re-adding each account one at a time to see if that resolves the issue.

  • How do you change/adjust border width for all the cells in a table created in Pages?

    How do you change/adjust border width for all the cells in a table created in Pages?
    Note- I am trying to figure out how to create and format tables in the latest version of the Pages app on an iPad air (iOS 8.1.1.1) . Creating tables, adding or removing borders for individual/all cells in a table seems straight forward. However the default border style seems to be a heavy black line. How do I change this?
    I found the option add or remove borders for all/ individual cells in a table, however I can't find any option within style/format dialogue screens for changing colour or line thickness for table cells. Likewise I can't find any clear instructions on how to do this in apple help pages or support website
    Btw- I'm assuming  it is possible to customize/adjust the colour & thickness of selected lines in a table created in this app (it's fairly easy to do this word processing apps like MS Word) please let me  know if this is not actually possible in Pages

  • VC Multiple Table Column Header Lines, Table Width Adjustment

    Hi Experts,
    1) How to have Multiple headers for a column in a single cell i.e multiple lines in the same cell. please provide with example.
    2) How to set your table to adjust the width automatically for all screen resolution since columns of the table disappear and some of the content of the header is not visible if the screen resolution is low.
    3) Is there any way to set the screen resolution for our report alone to very high resolution even if the end user has set the system resolution to low. The reports were developed on a high resolution and now we face the problem as citrix is rolled out and it is standard 1024 * 768 resolution.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Siva

    Wrapping the text of a table column caption into lines is currently not possible. Workarounds could be:
    - using a single character text and a tooltip for the description
    - using an image containing the wrapped text
    Both workarounds have their problems.

  • IText trouble with automatically adjustment of table width

    With iText I an producing a PDF file with some elements. One of these is a table which is supposed to be centered.
    In this table 2x2 with input form a Servlet. This input is a string of variable length, in other words I do not know the length of it.
    I want this table to automatically adjust the cells width according to the length of the String. As I understand iText does not posess this functionality.
    This is how I have created the table: The first column has a width of 0.3 because the values in those I allready know. The default value is centered and 80% span, and because of this the table is not centered according to the text since the content contains empty space, but the 80% span table is centered.
    PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(2);
    float[] widths = { 0.3f, 0.8f };
    table.setWidths(widths);How could I calculate this? The string has a font size of 22pt. Could I check for the number of chars in the String and adjust the width accordingly? It seems like I need to set the table.setWidthPercentage(50) in addition to the width size. But if I dont know the relationship between the width and percentages.
    If I calculate the width to be 0.6f with font size 22 and length x, how much percentages should I use?

    You need to use FontMetrics. In particular, use the FontMetrics of the table's renderer component so the string width will be calculated correctly even if the cell's value is bold. Something like this:
    Component comp = table.getDefaultRenderer(Object.class).getTableCellRendererComponent(table, cellValue, false, false, row, column);
    FontMetrics fm = comp.getFontMetrics(comp.getFont());
    int cellWidth = fm.stringWidth(cellValue);
    table.getColumnModel().getColumn(column).setWidth(cellWidth);

  • When I click the restore down button the webpage is suddenly too wide and I cannot adjust it with the black arrows.

    Two hours ago it was fine but now it won't let me adjust the width when I restore down pages. The width is currently half the screen, which is too large for what I'm doing. The black double-headed arrow appears, but it won't let me make the webpage thinner. I can make it wider, though, but that's not what I need.

    There is a minimum width. Users have reported different values ranging from 374 to about 400 pixels. If you need a window smaller than the minimum width, please see these threads for how to override the built-in minimum with a smaller one:
