Vertical Text in Columns

I've got 3 columns of text and I need one of them to have its text to go vertically down the page.
Is it possible to rotate the text around somehow so it's not always typed out horizontally?

Stuart,
You can use Jim's method if what you want is for your text to read sideways. If that's what you want, great. If what you want is for your text to be stacked ...
L
I
K
E
T
H
I
S ...
then you need to create a text box that's about one character wide. After you type your first character, the next one should wrap to the second line, and so on. That will give you a stacked -- not sideways- effect.

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

  • Vertical text direction / orientation in tables. (RoboHelp 7 and/or 8)

    Hello all,
    I need to squeeze a fairly full table (lots of columns) into a printable page width.
    In order to do this, I need to put text into some of the cells so that they read vertically. I can do this in MS Word tables (menu > Format > Text Direction) and need an equivalent in RH. Preferably RH7, (but can import into RH8 if I must ).
    Any ideas anyone?

    Hi Philip
    My guess is that you can probably fudge it using CSS. But it won't be something RoboHelp will assist with in any way.
    Check the link below for one hit I found. Use Google searching for vertical text in HTML to find others.

  • Vertical text in CR 2008

    Hello,
    I need to display the text in the columns labels vertically. When I set text rotation to 90 degrees, the text is rotated in the designer, but when I run the report - it's horizontal. However, when I print or export the report, the text is vertical again.
    After searching Google I've found out that this is a known bug in CR. However, I didn't find any solution other than using a CSS file. I've never used CSS with the Crystal Reports, so I wonder - is there any other solution to this problem? I need the text to be vertical on the web site as well.
    Thank you.

    The following information may help you
    Symptom

  • Vertical text in PDF- XSL-FO

    Hi Guys,
    We are trying to display a vertical text is a column in a PDF file. ( 90 o rotation of horizontal test).
    Is it possible in XSL-FO transformation? Could you please throw some light on this?
    (As we have lot of columns we are not able to display the column headings horizontally. )
    Thanks in anticipation
    Regards

    You have two questions here.
    1. Can you have rotated text in PDF?
    2. Is there an XSL-FO construct to produce that?
    3.
    three questions...

  • Vertical headers for columns in JTable

    Hi,
    I'm actually working on JTables and i'd like to set the headers of some columns to appear vertically instead of by default horizontal.
    I've found some tuts or examples to set the header on multiple lines but no one to set the header vertical...
    I want something like that :
    before :
    column1 | column2
    row1 |
    row2 |
    and after setting header columns vertical ( with column1 and column2 the column headers of my JTable )
    c | c
    o | o
    l | l
    u | u
    m | m
    n | n
    1 | 2
    ( and orientation of row headers not changed )
    Thanx for your reply

    Hi,
    Create you own colunm header renderer... it is actualy a cellRenderer. That cellRenderer should extends JLabel or JButton depending on what you want and you must put a paint method in it that draws the vertical text.

  • How to type vertical text

    In numbers, I've merged cells vertically in hopes of typing a word vertically but I can't figure out how to do it.  It's probably an easy process but I can't figure it out. Thanks for the help.

    Hi Tyson,
    Here are some examples.
    A1 contains vertical text. It can be created by making the column narrow enough to accept only a single character width, selecting the cell, and checking the Wrap checkbox in the Format bar. An alternate method that;s more trouble, but also more reliable is to insert a return character after each letter (including one on the empty line between words). Press option-return to insert a return into a cell. (Hint: Enter the first letter, then enter an option-return for each letter and space you want in the cell. Then go back and enter the letters, pressing the down arrow after each to go to the next line.)
    Numbers does not support rotated text in table cells. Cells B1, C1 and D1 are empty. The rotated text is placed in three text boxes, one for each cell. These are rotated (90° for B1, 75° for each of the others), then placed in front of the appropriate cell.
    E1 contains wrapped text. The wrapping in this case is determined by the width of the cell and the text itself, but you can also control what appears on each line by using returns (option-return) within the text. The vertical alignment button on the Format bar was also used here to vertically center the text in the cell.
    Regarding "I've merged cells vertically...," I'd recommend against merging cells where you can avoid it. Merging cells vertically or horizontally has consequences with sorting the table (and I think, other issues as well). Best to leave it undone until the issues are sorted out.

  • ALV - vertical text

    Hi!
    I have written an ALV-report. Because I have to display many columns and the screen width is limited I would like to put the headertext vertical instead of horizontal. Is that an easy thing to do with ALV?

    HI Patrick,
    I doubt if you can do it using an alv.
    Column headings will have a tool tip feature by default.
    So, you can play with the display lengths of fields instead of diplaying columns headings as vertical text.
    Try to set the output length to as minimum as possible., when you build the field catalog.

  • How to wrap the text in column headers?

    Hi Friends,
    Can anyone please suggest how to wrap the text in column headers of a Java WebDynpro table?
    I believe that caption is the only UI element that a column header can have and it does not allow wrapping of the text.
    My original requirement is as follows,
    In a table I need to dynamically set the width of the columns according to the width configured by the user in some other view. All the columns of the table are dynamically rendered.
    Now what happens is when the user sets the width of the column to a rather low value, say 15 pixels, then the column is displayed like
    Supplier Catalog Name
    Sheila
    Catalog
    Name
    Dropdown
    As you can see it looks rather odd.
    Supplier Catalog Name is the header of the column and I use IWDCaption for header.
    Sheila Catalog Name Dropdown is the value of a particular row at the specified column. I am using a TextView as the TableCellEditor.
    I think what is happening here is that the framework wraps the text in the TextView according to the width specified (15px) and then the column width is extended because it can not accommodate the text (Supplier Catalog Name ) of the column header.
    We are using SAP NetWeaver Development Studio 7.0.12 as the IDE.
    I searched some forums and many people have suggested using scrollable columns but I don't understand how it will help in wrapping the text in a column header.
    Any help would be of great advantage.
    Thanks
    Amit

    Hi Deepti,
    Thanks a lot for the answer but the option that you have specified does not wrap the text. Instead it truncates the text being displayed and only the substring of the text which could be displayed in the given pixels is displayed.
    I need to show the whole text wrapped (Meaning if the width of the column is not sufficient then the text goes into the next line).
    Ayyapparaj,
    Thanks to you too for an helpful answer. It seems that the Netweaver has finally come up with a way to wrap the text in the column headers but as Manoj pointed out, I do not see the property headerTextWrapping  for a table column, Can you please specify which version of netweaver supports it?
    We are using SAP NetWeaver Development Studio 7.0.12 as the IDE.
    Thanks

    Re:  text to columns error
    You have four columns selected when you call text to columns, so ...
    Replace the word "Selection" with Range("A1:A300") so it looks like...
      Range("A1:A300").TextToColumns Destination:=Range("A1"), DataType:=xlDelimited, _
    The above is my guess as to what you want to work with; I didn't experiment with the rest of the code.

  • Problem with vertical text in crystal report viewer

    Hi,
    I am displaying vertical text in crystal report designer and deploying the report in crystal reports server 2008. The deployed report is being displayed using JAVA in crystal report viewer control.
    Problem: Vertical text header  is getting collapsed wth other vertical headers.
    Please help on this.
    Thanks,

    Hi Vijay,
    I found out another method of retaining all the chart formatting that is done in the preview pane.
    Once you have done all the changes then you will find interestingly there is a chart menu option that appears in the tool bar. Once you click on it there is an option "Apply Changes to All Charts".
    Select that option, close your preview. Open it once again and you will find that all the settings are still there and the Web Viewer is able to display them properly.
    I think that I resolved this.
