Word wrap seems to expand.

I have noticed for quite a while now that with some emails I reply to that my written txt goes off the page ie is does not stop at the edge of the screen and wraps, it carries on for several words and then comes back. its as if the word wrap feature has expanded. Has anyone else found this.
Thanks in advance

anyone?

  • Looking for a word processor without word wrap, text edit doesn't cut it

    I'm looking for a word processor without word wrap, text edit doesn't work. In text edit, it automatically scoots my text over to the next line but I just want it to keep going with a horizontal scrollbar. Is there a text editor I can download from the app store or can I get textedit to work somehow where it uses a horizontal scroll bar instead of entering text to the next line?

    Hi,
    thought TextWrangler can do it.
    But it seems that the 'no word-wrap' "feature" isn't that much wanted anymore.
    Maybe one of these http://www.macupdate.com/find/mac/text%20editor can do it.

  • Word Wrap with a Vertical Grid

    I've got a vertical grid with my headers in the left column and descriptive text in the column immediately to the right.  I'd like to have the descriptive text word wrap but checking the word wrap box on the layout tab doesn't seem to have any effect.
    Any ideas?  I'm using 11.5 SP3

    I'm not sure if it will work with the iGrid in a vertical orientation, but have you tried setting the RowHeight to something like 20 or 30 instead of the default of 0?  This setting will auto adjust the grid lines based upon the font-size, but you may need to force it to a certain height in order for the wrapping to work.

  • How to make items in a list word wrap as needed and be variable heights

    I am trying to build a custom itemrenderer for the List control.  The items in the list are variable lengths of text, some of the text items will have different colors determined at runtime base on some criteria (this works fine now with my custom itemrenderer).  What I need is for the items to word wrap, and therefore for the list to display items of varying heights.  Is this possible to do?  All my attempts seem to have failed.  If I can't do this with an item renderer any suggestions about how to do this?  Thanks very much in advance to any of you gurus who are able to help me.

    Trick here is not to specify any height for the renderer so that Flex will determine the height according to the content. Also set the variableRowHeight="true"
    Here is a simple example
    <mx:ArrayCollection id="dp">
            <mx:Array>
                <mx:Object label="some very long text"/>
                <mx:Object label="some very loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong text"/>
                <mx:Object label="some very loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong text"/>
                <mx:Object label="some very looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong text"/>
                <mx:Object label="some very long text"/>
            </mx:Array>
        </mx:ArrayCollection>
        <mx:List dataProvider="{dp}" variableRowHeight="true">
            <mx:itemRenderer>
                <mx:Component>
                    <mx:Canvas width="100%">
                        <mx:Text width="100%" text="{data.label}"/>
                    </mx:Canvas>
                </mx:Component>
            </mx:itemRenderer>
        </mx:List>

  • DataGrid, HTML Text, and WORD WRAPPING

    I have a datagrid, with 2 columns:
    - comment
    - date
    The dataprovider that feeds the datagrid is an array
    collection, with each object containing the following fields:
    - comment
    - date
    - viewed
    What I want to do is BOLD the comment cell if the comment has
    not yet been viewed. What I first tried doing was to just insert
    the <b></b> tags on the server and then feed them up to
    Flex. So here's the code that I had tried to do this with:
    <mx:DataGridColumn>
    <mx:itemRenderer>
    <mx:Component>
    <mx:HBox>
    <mx:Label htmlText="{data.comment}" />
    </mx:HBox>
    </mx:Component>
    </mx:itemRenderer>
    </mx:DataGridColumn>
    This works, but I lose the word wrapping for long comments (I
    have wordwrap="true" defined on my DataGrid).
    Then I tried changing my approach and doing something a
    little more simple to try and preserve the word wrapping, like
    this:
    <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="comment" width="100"
    wordWrap="true" fontWeight="{(data.viewed==0 ? 'bold' : 'normal')}"
    />
    Yet that doesn't seem to work either, it appears to just
    completely ignore everything... no bolding whatsoever.
    So my question is: what's the best to to control the BOLDING
    of a DataGrid cell while at the same time retaining the word wrap
    features?
    Thanks,
    Jacob

    <mx:DataGridColumn>
    <mx:itemRenderer>
    <mx:Component>
    <mx:HBox>
    <mx:Label htmlText="{data.comment}"
    wordWrap="true" height="100%"/>
    </mx:HBox>
    </mx:Component>
    </mx:itemRenderer>
    </mx:DataGridColumn>

  • Prob with fixed column widths and word wrapping in viewer

    i have a report where each record has a very long paragraph of text in it.
    In desktop and plus, the text column is at a fixed width and the text just wraps nicely according to the column width.
    But in Viewer, the column widths do not stay fixed, the text does not wrap, and the long text is displayed in a single line that completely stretches the column width off the page and requires a horizontal scroll bar.
    is there anyway to fix the column width in viewer, have the text naturally wrap, and prevent the column stretching. All word wrapping settings are on, but seem to have no effect. I can't seem to find any solution to this.
    Thanks...

    Hi Pritam,
    Per my understanding that you can't see the vertical scrollbar of the ReportViewer controls 2012 to scroll for the grid rows, but can see the vertical scrollbar of the web application, you also can't fix the headers while scrolling, right?
    I have tested on my local environment and can't reproduce your issue, but you have an alternative way to add some css  to the web form's source code to display the vertical scrollbar.
    Details information below for your reference:
    Please check below properties setting of the reportviewer which control the visibility of the scrollbar:
    AsyncRendering="true"
    SizeToReportContent="false"
    Please check if this problem also occur on other version of IE and other type of browser.
    Please check if you have done correct setting of the Fix data to freeze the table header as the step of below:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb934257(v=sql.100).aspx
    If step1 doesn't work, please click the source of webform.aspx and add below CSS to add the vertical scrollbar manually:
    #ReportViewer1 {
              overflow-y: scroll;
    Run the application you will see it display as below:

  • JTextPane always word wrapping

    I'm having problems convincing a JTextPane not to word wrap. My JTextPane is contained in a JScrollPane. I've looked and found out how to turn off word wrap in a JTextArea, and applied suggestions about turning horizontal scrollbars on, but it doesn't work. My JTextPane keeps wrapping text regardless of what I do to it. It seems to me that, since the JTextPane is more "sophisticated" than a JTextArea, I should be able to do this. Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    overwrite the following method in your JTextPane-subclass
    public boolean getScrollableTracksViewportWidth() { return false;  }this works, if you use the scrollbar-policies below - I use that in a mud-client, returning false if I want it not to wrap and returning true, if I want it to wrap.
    I use the following on the JScrollPane, the JTextPane is in (assuming sp is your JScrollPane)
    sp.setVerticalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS);
    sp.setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED);Hope, this helps

  • Word wrapping in site studio?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to develop in Site Studio 7 and finding it cumbersome the way I always have to scroll across to view code. I've tried 'enable line wrapping' in the view -> customise menu, this doesn't seem to have any effect. Anyone else had this problem or know of a solution?
    Cheers
    M.Mix

    "Line wrapping" is not word wrapping. It inserts a physical line break when the line exceeds the specified length. If the text is continuous (no spaces) then no break is inserted. Pointless and yuck. We've been complaining about it for years, maybe Oracle's 11g release might address it.

  • Word wrapping engine

    is there a way to turn off the "word wrapping engine"? it is really causing me alot of headaches! Thanks!

    I am taking forms and opening them in the Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Pro, when i am trying to modify the text that somehow gets added in the transition between the word form and opening it in Acrobat The "Error: Unknown document name" shows up and it isnt from the original so i am trying to delete it, and when i use the touch up tool, this word wrap engine appears and i cant stop it or find out how to stop it but it seems to make it so when i do delete it I can not get the other text to work properly and it seems that the "wrapping" gets off kilter. I have attached a screen shot, hopefully it helps you.

  • Terminal word wrap gone?

    One of my favorite features in tiger's terminal was the ability to turn OFF the word wrap. It was under Terminal->Window Settings...->Buffer->Wrap lines that are too long. I could uncheck that box and it would be helpful in viewing logfiles scrolling by (using tail -f). I think I'm insane because I cannot find this most basic feature in Leopard's terminal. I've experimented with some of the default settings like, Autowrap, Backwrap, and RewrapOnResize and changing these seems to have no effect. Can anyone tell me if this feature is gone forever? I really would like to know how to turn off word wrap in leopard terminal.

    AFAICT, it's automatic. BTW, you'll most likely get a more cogent answer posting to the Unix forum under OS X Technologies where the Unix and Terminal mavens congregate.

  • TextArea component wont word wrap.. help!

    I cant seem to get the TextArea component in Flash 8 to word
    wrap. I've set the word wrap parameter to "true" but it will not
    word wrap. It just puts all the text in one line. How do you fix
    this? Also, is there a way to control the font size in the TextArea
    component?
    Thanks!

    ad 1. sorry but in my instance true is set by default to word
    wrap option and it works.
    ad 2 instanceName.setStyle("fontSize",24)
    u can learn more about TextArea by lookin to the script below
    ( its just an example):
    function setStyles(instance) {
    instance.setStyle("themeColor", "blue");
    instance.setStyle("color", "blue");
    instance.setStyle("fontFamily", "Courier New");
    instance.setStyle("fontSize", 12);

  • Why does anchoring break word wrap?

    I have a 200+ page typical book--one big column per page (two facing pages), and about 30 images/illustrations scattered throughout the book (at most one image per page). Most of the images are, say, half the column wide, and I want the text to flow around them. So I place the image in a reasonable spot and select Word Wrap | Wrap Around Bounding Box. Looks great so far. Then I anchor it--and the first line of text flows UNDER the image frame. Release the anchor and it word wraps correctly. When it's anchored I've tried both Wrap Around Bounding Box and Wrap Around Object, and various other word wrap options--the first line of text still wraps under the image frame. But all is well once I release the anchor. I'm a newbie--what am I missing?

    It seems to not-work-as-expected if I place the anchor in text that is being word wrapped--that is, anywhere horizontal to the image. If I place the anchor in text above the image, that isn't being wrapped, it appears to work as expected. Sadly, this would suggest that if I want to place an image next to the paragraph that references it, and place the anchor inside the paragraph that references the image, that word wrapping won't work.

  • [SOLVED] How to add Word-Wrapping to a QPushButton

    I'm working on a Qt project and I have a QPushButton on which I'd like to allow word wrapping:
    I know I can change it to a QLabel, but due to the specific purpose of the application, it needs to be clickable (so I think that means it must be a QPushButton). I've searched around online a bit and the only solution I've been able to find is "inheriting." However, I can't seem to figure out how to do it. Can anyone help? Thanks!
    Last edited by tony5429 (2009-08-22 19:20:38)

    I don't think that is possible, as it is against QPushButton's intended design.
    However, you could easily derive a class from QLabel and overload the
    virtual void QWidget::keyPressEvent ( QKeyEvent * event )
    function or install an event filer (http://doc.trolltech.com/4.5/eventsandfilters.html)
    on a "plain" QLabel to do the exactly same.

  • How Can I Word-wrap a Value?

    How can I force a selection in a drop-down menu to word-wrap in the value portion of an object?  I can achieve my desired result in the caption portion by increasing the height of the object.  However, when I increase the size of the object, the value portion does not wrap.

    Are you sure that a drop down menu is the best option for what you're doing? Maybe another Object type would suit your purposes better--like radio buttons.
    Anyway, You can edit the XML source and add a CDATA tag around the items in your list. So, if you have a drop down list with {Something really long goes here, Something else really long here, And another really long thing} as your options, click on the XML Source tab.
    Add
    <![CDATA[Something really long
    goes here]]>
    Now, this will break the line as you're wanting to do, but it's going to cause a different problem--The list of items was originally selected by the first, second, and third lines in the dropdown list. They still are. So, you have 6 different lines, and only the first three can select something. If you're just wanting to have a dropdown that the user selects to read a list and not to select something, then this is probably ok. If you want the user to select an item, then this is a terrible idea.
    If your lines are just a little bit too long to fit, you can set the value's font to "0" Then it will shrink and expand the font size to fit the largest selection. Two notes, the dropdown arrow will cover the last bit of the line, and there is a limit to how small it can get.
