Table column header text orientation

Hi ,
Is it possible using UI element TABLE or ALV component SALV_WD_TABLE to set the column header text orientation to 90 Degrees? Like in Excel if you right click on cell then go to format cells then go to alignment tab where you can set text orientation. I looked at cl_salv_wd_column_header and did not see method to do so.
Thanks,
Gary

Currently this is not possible.
If you do have a need to display (and I would probably emphasis display ) data in an Excel like manner, then consider using the Office control and supplying a formatted XML version of an Excel file to the control - then you can use all the Excel formatting capabilities to your heart's content.
Cheers,
Chris

Wrapping table column header text

Hi
I want my jTable column header texts to be wrapped automatically when the text does not fit in the width of the column. Any one help me?
thanks
mortoza

Hi
Thanks for your good advise. I have checked the site and found double line header of table. BUT, those lines are static i.e. not wrapping rather fixed. I want it to be wrapped automatically when the width is smaller than the required width to display in on single line. Can anyone help?

Table Column Header Text - Refresh Table

Hi. A question about programmatically changing the Header Text property of a Table Component.
I've added code, in the backing bean Setter for the Table component, to change the header text as required.
The problem is that when the page is rendered, the header changes are not displayed initially. Only after a PPR is performed (on a different component) does the table render with my property changes displayed.
Am I doing the header text manipulation in the wrong place? Is there a way to refresh the table programmatically prior to it rendering initially (e.g. after the RENDER_RESPONSE phase?)?
Cheers.

Hi Bala,
After following your invaluable advice I now have the table displaying more or less as a I need. The labels are set correctly (from the Attribute Hint that I set in the AttrDefImpl), and the Rendered property for each column is now derived from Expression Language pointing to the same AttributeHints...
However, I'm still struggling with the DisplayIndex for the table columns. I'm attempting to set the DisplayIndex column property using EL that gets a value from the VO binding FieldOrder control attribute (which contains a numeric value). However, this does not resolve properly and in the column Property Inspector the DisplayIndex doesn't seem to display correctly itself...
I'm wondering if this is because the FieldOrder control attribute is a String while the DisplayIndex takes an Integer. Is there a way to perform some conversion on this in the EL itself? Or maybe that is not the problem.
Thanks again for all your assistance!

Table column header text vs. popup column menu text

Does anyone know how to show different text in the table show/hide popup menu than in the column header itself?
popup menu is the one that lets us manipulate column visibility but it seems forever bound to what I show in the column header :(
Appreciate any help !

Well, I have a way, but I think there should be an easier way.
1. Set the text of the TableColumn to the text you want to appear in the popup menu.
2. Set the graphic of the TableColumn to a new Text("...") with the text you want in the table header
3. Use CSS (see your previous thread) to set the -fx-content-display on the tabel header to "graphic-only"
If you want an image as well as text in the table header, you could try setting the graphic to an HBox and filling the HBox with an ImageView and Text (for example).
This loses some of the default behavior of the table header, too; for example there is no automatic ellipsis if the table column is too narrow to display the text.
Someone else may (surely) have a better solution...

How to set title/text for ALV table column header in WD ABAP

Hello,
I am working in WDA using SALV_WD_Table to display data in table. I need to change the column header text, the obvious way is to get the column header and call the method SET_TEXT to set new text / title. However, this method does NOT work, it does not change the column header text. I also tried the SET_TOOLTIP, this one works, but SET_TEXT does not work. Anyone has idea why this not working and do you find any go-around solution?
My version is NW 7.0
Thank
Jayson

Hi jason ,
For setting Heder text for your ALV table
ip_confing type ref to CL_SALV_WD_CONFIG_TABLE.
"set alv table header
ip_config->if_salv_wd_table_settings~r_header->set_text( 'Test ALV Header functionality' ).
first you have to hide the DDIC text and then try to set your own text .
"modify columns
LOOP AT lt_columns INTO ls_column.
    lr_column = ls_column-r_column.
    CASE ls_column-id.
      WHEN 'MANDT'.
        "hide this field
        lr_column->set_visible( cl_wd_abstr_table_column=>e_visible-none ).
       WHEN 'SEQNR'.
        "set header to different string
        lr_column->r_header->set_ddic_binding_field( if_salv_wd_c_column_settings=>ddic_bind_none )." use this line to hide ddic text
        lr_column->r_header->set_text( 'Position' ).
    endcase.
endloop.

Image in table column header to the right of the text?

Does anyone know how I can put an image on the right of the text in the table column header?
If I do column.setGraphic it positions image on the left, how can I change the position of the image?
For that matter how can I set alignment of the image? Like if I want it in the corner (even left corner will do) and not next to the text?
Appreciate any help !

You can do this with CSS (needs an external stylesheet, can't be done (easily) with an inline style).
Something like
.table-view .column-header-background .label {
-fx-content-display: right ;
}(Untested... you may need to experiment a bit.)
The structure of the table view control from the css perspective is documented here: http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/api/javafx/scene/doc-files/cssref.html#tableview

How to achive table column header style (vertical text)?

Hi,
Can we show adf table column headers with vertical text, and with rotation. For eg. "Dept Id" lable should show up as similar to what the below HTML does:

I've used the below style classes in CSS, but still not getting the accurate Column Header Vertical Text. Also, in IE browser column header text is shrinked vertically when headerClass styles are applied!
Any help appreciated!
.sch af|column::column-header-cell {
vertical-align: bottom;
padding-bottom: 10px;
height: 80px;
.schc af|column::column-header-cell-content {

/* FF3.5+ */
filter: progid: DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(rotation=3);
/*IE6,IE7*/
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(rotation=3)";
/*IE8*/
-o-transform: rotate(270deg);

Change Table control Column Header text dynamically

Hi,
I have an requirement to change table control column header text dynamically.
i.e. I have about 10 columns in table control, out that need to change 5 columns header text. These header texts are stored in an internal table.
I had looked into the below link but could not get exactly how to do it.
Dynamic headers in table control
Could you please tell me how to do that.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Saba,
What you will need to do is this.....
1. First replace the column Header Text box by I/O Fields and name them accordingly.
Say for example we will consider the same example which i had explained in the link.
there in the column header we want the header to change when some dates and entered into two fields which are out of table control say
Start Date: 01.01.2010 to End Date: 06.01.2010
Now we want the header to look like this,
Column No.    -        1               2             3                  4               5               6
Header label   -    01/FRI       02/SAT     03/SUN       04/MON     05/TUE      06/WED
Header name -    SPOTS1   SPOTS2    SPOTS3      SPOTS4     SPOTS5    SPOTS6
then you go as per the instructions in the link......
Let me know if you need further help,
Hope this solves your problem....

How to display the sorting arrows in the table column header

Hi
I am doing a sorting for some columns from the click of the table column headers, In Developer studio, we are able to view the up and down arrows, I need that also to be made visible at run time, so that the user knows that there exists sorting based on that particular column. Is there any other way of doing it ? I cant place more than one control on the header or wrap the text to two lines..also. please clarify. thanks

I assume you are using NW 04.
The table column header contains a IWDCaption element which may display an icon and a text. See property IWDCaption.imageSource.
The table tutorial might also be helpful.

Dynamic Table control header text

Hi everyone,
I need to change the column header texts of a table control dynamically.
There are 32 columns in my table control. I got the information that I have to use I/O fields for every columns as the column header texts to change it dynamically.
But it didn't work as the I/O box goes into the body of the table control instead of being placed in the header area. So I checked w/title and tried to drag and drop the I/O boxes on the header text place of table control. But it allowed only one I/O box to be there in the header area..
Please suggest me any idea to place the 32 I/O boxes in the header area as the corresponding column headers in the table control..
Thanks in advance,
Sheeba.

How to change "Details" column header text in AdvanceTable in AdvancedTable

Hi All,
i am using adavanced table in advanced table in OAF page to show the master and details ,
my requirement is to change the header text of "Details" to some other meaning ful text .
"Details' column will be visible at runtime ,no we cant change using process request ,
Please help me on this ,its urgent
Thanks & Regards
Maheswara Raju

You can get the handle to the Detail column by using the following:
UINode d = outerTable.getDetail();
However, as per OAF developer guide, it is not possible to change the label for the detail column. The devloper guide has the following:
"In accordance with BLAF guidelines, the Detail column header text for the detail disclosure column and the Show/Hide link texts within the cells of the detail disclosure column can not be modified."

Dynamically changing the Advance table column Header.

Dear All,
I want to change dynamically the Advance table column header.
I tried the below code and its working process request,not in process form request when button pressing.
Please suggest me.
         OAAdvancedTableBean tableBean =
                           (OAAdvancedTableBean)webBean.findIndexedChildRecursive("advanceTableRN");
                       if (tableBean != null) {
                       System.out.println("tableBean");
                           OAColumnBean columnBean =
                               (OAColumnBean)tableBean.findIndexedChildRecursive("column3");
                           if (columnBean != null) {
                               System.out.println("columnBean");
                               OASortableHeaderBean colHeaderBean =
                                   (OASortableHeaderBean)columnBean.getColumnHeader();
                               if (colHeaderBean != null) {
                                   System.out.println("colHeaderBean");
                                   colHeaderBean.setText("Segment3");

You can try 2 options:
1. Try to call pageContext.forwardImmediatlytoCurrentPage();
2. Try yo set a vo attribute to the columnbean text property and set the vo attribute programmatically. (I have not tried this but I think it should work)
Cheers
