To change the width of a Table Column

Hai Developers..................
I have problem with the Table Column Width.
When am on search state.
The search results are showing in a table.
At that time i want to change the width of the each column with respect to the column content.
Like the jsp table.......
Pls replay with example......
Thanks.

And that is why Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum so we don't spend time guessing what you are talking about.
Darn, the [Table Column Adjuster|http://www.camick.com/java/blog.html?name=table-column-adjuster] didn't show up in that Google search.

Increasing the width of Pivot table Columns

Hi Gurus,
Small pivot table --> ( ie having less no of columns which generally can be seen in a single page without scrolling to the right)
If i have a small pivot table , then in the column properties through additional formatting options i can increase the width of an individual column.
However if the pivot table is Big,I am not able to increase the width of the individual column .
I tried setting width in the additional formatting options in the Content Properties( just above Rows and below Section there is a small grey box containing finger).
Now the Content Properties indeed increases the width of the column, but it also increase the width of the whole Pivot Table.
See...If i have a fixed number of columns in a PIVOT Table that do not change with prompt, then this solution work fine...
but the problem comes when the no of columns in pivot Table reduces based on the prompt selected.
In this case the less no of columns tries to occupy the whole width set in the content properties.
In short, with Content Properties the width of the PIVOT Table becomes fixed, irrespective of the no of columns coming.
Also after setting content properties, I am not able to print the report to PDF.
So the Question is... Can we increase the width of a Big Pivot Table whose no of columns keeps on changing based on the prompt....
Big pivot table -->
(ie table having no of columns which exceeds a single window frame and have to scroll to right to see the rest of the columns)
I hope i have not made things messy...
Thanks

Ashish,
Yes, you can set a fixed size for these. I'm sure you are fixing these because of PDF issue which might be irregular in sizes. Just play arnd with Custom CSS options.

How do I change the width of a lead column in an enhanced layout ?

I have an enhanced layout in BPS that gets rendered in TPM (CRM2007) application.
I need to increase the width of a lead column in this layout. I saw a bunch of methods in a BADI UPX_LAYOUT_RENDER. There is one to manipulate XML and another to manipulate HTML. Are these my only options? or is there an easier way via config or another BADI?
Cheers

Can you share if you have got a solution to this.

How do I keep a table the same size but change the width of columns?

I know this is probably a really stupid question. But after looking online and at the table palette... I still can't figure it out! In Quark, I can "maintain the geometry" of a table by clicking a box. That way, I can change the width or height of rows and columns... without changing the overall size of the table itself. How do I lock down the overall size of a table in InDesign? Thanks...
Julie

@Julie – you can change column width by alt + shift + dragging left or right cell sides without changing the overall size of the table.

Hope that helps!

Can you programmatically change the width of columns in a table control\indicator

Is it possible to programmatically change the width of columns in a table control\indicator ie to fit to width of the data or in my case the header information.

Create a property node (or reference) and use the 'Active Cell' property to select which column you want to change and then use the 'Cell size'--> 'Width' property to change the size.

How can I change the width of a column in a list of sharepoint 2010 ?

How do I change the column width in sharepoint 2010 so the data displays properly in standard view?
I open the list View in sharepoint designer,and change the width of the <td> ,but ,when I preview ,the column width don't change. what should I do?

While they may auto adjust to what it thinks is a correct width, far too often it allocates way too much room and that causes lists with 4 columns to be much longer than they need to be and without the ability to adjust them, lists look strange.
http://twitpic.com/23ro09/full is an example of the first column having been allocated too much room.

How do I change the width of column "rating"

all columns are variable in widht. but not "rating" (stars). How do I change the width of column "rating"?

Hi Emkaha,
By the way the column "last played" can be reduced to a size which display the date "incorrect" as well (you'll see only the first number of the date which wouldn't make any sense too, but it is possible).
True, but if you see date of "1" you will know you are not seeing a full date. If you see 2 stars, it is a valid value, even if it is not correct. At least, that is my supposition about why it is designed the way it is.
Having said that, the extra width in the German version -- the Wertung column is wider than needed for 5 stars -- does seem odd. In the English version for Windows PC, the Rating width is just enough for 5 stars. You can report this to Apple via the iTunes Feedback page.

How to change the width of a column in the web templete

hai
can anyone pl help me to solve the issue
here is the issue
" how to change the width of the column in web templete?" is there any chance to change
thanx in advance

First use the Active Cell property and set the row value to -2 to change an entire column. The attached image shows how to set the background color of column 3 to green. I don't understand your comment about column size. It doesn't matter how wide or narrow a column is. Using the Cell Background Color property, the entire cell is colored. If you are having difficulty keeping track of the number of columns, thats a different issue.

Sharepoint 2013 changing the width of columns in a list

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to change the width of columns in a custom list in sharepoint 2013. I have tried to load it in Sharepoint Designer 2010, but it will not allow me. Therefore, I can only use SPD 2013.
Thanks

Hi Jemelia,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to change the width of a column in a custom list in SharePoint 2013.
Per my test, if we edit the AllItem view of the list in SharePoint Designer 2013, we cannot get the design tab to customize the XSLT of the list and change the width of the column.
I recommend to create a new page, and then add a data view web part of the corresponding list to the page. After that, we can get the design tab to customize the XSLT of the list.
Here are the detailed steps:
In the newly created page with the added data view web part of the list, select the data view web part and then click on “Customize XSLT” > “Customize Entire View” on design tab in the menu.
Search for the fieldname for example in my case “Column” then you will get template like “dvt_headerfield. Column”. In this template there is a attribute name like <xsl:attribute name="style">
in this just add the width size like following.
<xsl:attribute name="style">padding:0 !important;border:0 !important; width: 600px</xsl:attribute>
  3. Search for the template “FieldRef_printTableCell_EcbAllowed.Column”. In this template you will see “<td>” and you can add style to change its width like following.
<td style=" width:300px">
We can also use jquery to change the width of the column in SharePoint 2013:
      1. Create a txt file containing the code below:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.2.6/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("TH.ms-vh2:contains('Title')").css("width", "300px"); //You can change the column to be the column you want to change the width, Title in the code for example.
</script>
       2. Upload the txt file to a library in SharePoint.
       3. Add a Content Editor in the page where the list exists, and then edit the web part.
       4. In Content Link, type in the URL of the txt file in SharePoint, like
http://server/site/library/file.txt.
Best regards.
Thanks

Specifically controlling the width of a table in an HTML report

I am generating an HTML report that consists of several detail tables
followed by a summary table at the end. Each detail table is
generated within a for loop. The summary table is generated
separately at the end. The detail tables all have the same column
width and same number of columns. However, I cannot get the summary
table to have the same column width even though it has the same number
of columns and the same column width setting.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hi,
What VI are you using to create the tables using the for loop? What VI (Append Table to Report.vi?) are you using to create the table at the end?
If you are using the Append Table to Report.vi to create the tables in the for loop, can you change the width of the columns and see expected behavior?
Let me know, and I should be able to help you out further.

How to change the width of a field?

Hi all,
I would like to decrease the width of a field on my report.
But I can't do it in the Property palette. I am not able to change the width property. The width of the database column is varchar2(255). I do not want to decrease the length of the database column, but only the width property of the field.
Any ideas?
Regards

As far as I knows, you can only increase the width of a
character column. If you wish to decrease it, I would think
you'd have to drop/delete the whole column and recreate it,
loosing all your data in the process (unless you create a
temporary table into which you copy the data first, and then
copy it back into the "new" column - the oracle db will truncate
the data automatically).
SQL Plus is very well suited for the task, but requires you to
write the appropriate SQL statements yourself. Other tools may
simplify this for you (I use SQL Plus myself).
Hope this helps.

How to fix the width of ADF Table

Hi,
I am developing an application in ADF using ADF Faces Components . I am using Oracle Jdev 10.1.3.1.0
I am dropping the Transient View object as ADF Table on UI. I have set the width property of table to 100%, I have also changed the inlinestyle width also to 100%. These two did not work for me.
The issue is if a column has a value of bigger length the table size is extending and if the column has a value of smaller length the table size is reducing.
Is this the expected behaviour of the width property of the table ?? . Is there any way to fix the table size. Please provide me some pointers to fix the issue.
Thank You.

Hi vijay,
Setting the width to 100% did not work for me.
Table Script: Create table sample (name varchar2(1000), num number);
Insert the below Data:
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,1234
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,12
aaa,3444
aaassssssssssssss,1234
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,123423
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,123123
With this info in the table drop it is as view object on the UI.
Set the RangeSize to 2 in the PageDef.xml file
The issue is: For the first 4 rows the table size is showing perfectly but when it showing 5 and 6 row on the UI the table is stretching.
Please provide me some more pointers to fix this issue.
Thank You.

How to change the width and height of the visible part of the of the report

I have define a report with paper size 'Letter', orientation 'landscape' and 30 columns. Dynamically I am changing width of columns and suppressing many columns of the report.
Mostly using first 16-20 columns and others get suppressed.
Now problem is that when navigating the report thru crystal viewer, a huge blank spaces getting display on right of the report. When we take jump to some part of report thru navigation tree, the whole report gets shifted to left and only blank part is visible and it is required to scroll left.
Even printing is not working correctly.
Is there any way to change the width and height of the visible part of the report in the viewer thru .net classes? Setting the width and height of the report in Load event handler doesn't help.
Example: CrystalReportViewer1.Width = 200; - is not helping.
Is there any other solution?
Please let me know.
Thanks
Mahesh Patel

Hi Yogesh,
Your suggestion 'reportDocument.PrintOptions.PaperSize=PaperSize.PaperLedger;' along with 'PaperOrientation' setting as follow works fine. I tried to switch between Landscape and Portrait depending on report width.
reportDocument.PrintOptions.PaperOrientation = PaperOrientation.Landscape;
But problem with crystal viewer remain as it is.
While navigating report thru crystal viewer, when we take jump to some part of report thru navigation tree, the whole report gets shifted to left and it is required to scroll left.
Thanks for your very good suggestion.

How can i change the Format of my DATE column?

I need to change the date format for a whole column. At present i can do MM-DD-YYYY. I need to change this this to DD-MMM-YYYY.
I know about the to_date function, i tried to apply it to change the format of my whole column by doing the following.....
CREATE TABLE "IT220_DATEHOLIDAY"
"DEPARTID" VarChar(2)NOT NULL ENABLE,
"HOLCODE" VARCHAR2(2)NOT NULL ENABLE,
"DEPARDATE" DATE,
to_date('DATE','DD-MMM-YYYY'), <<<change DATE column to DD-MMM-YYYY
CONSTRAINT "DATEHOLIDAY_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("DEPARTID") ENABLE
ORA-00902: invalid datatype <<<<This was the error message i received.
I am aware that the to_date function is supposed to be used to change strings into a certain format. I guess this means you cant do it with columns? Is there anyway i can format the whole column or do i have to do each string of data entered one by one?
Thanks in advance!

Hello Jay,
I'm not sure you hit the right forum, as this doesn't seem to be a problem with APEX.
Anyway:
You can't use that function on a table like that, and as you already suggested, the to_date-function expects a string value.
It seems you also have a misunderstanding of the basic datatypes in the database. DATE is such a datatype and is stored an internal format you don't need to care about. Each time your request the value, the database will give you a string representation according to either your locale or you give a certain formatting mask.
The same applies to insert or update operations: you hand in either a variable of type DATE or use a function like to_date to create an "object" of type date.
You may be interested in reading the documentation of the [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16508/toc.htm]Oracle Database Concepts. The section concerning datatype DATE can be found here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16508/tablecls.htm#CBBGJHJC
An overview of formatting options can be found here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e17118/sql_elements004.htm#SQLRF00212
So to answer your question: You would format it as part of your insert operation, taking a string and convert it using to_date.
