Alignment of column headings (Table view)

Classic Servoy

Hi,
Is it possible to justify column headings to the left in table view instead of the default centre??

Not to my knowledge…

You could fiddle with HTML inside the header.

Hi Paul,
I just tried the following HTML code

<html>
 <head>

 </head>
 <body>
   <p align="left">
     <b>Company Name</b>
   </p>
 </body
</html>

It works fine in the Property Editor text tab but not as a column header on the solution, maybe the code is wrong??

Unfortunally, it’s not foolproof, but:
"

your text
"

Works in the Smart client. This has undesired effects in the WebClient. That will be looked at, to see if that can be improved.

That did it,
Many Thanks Paul, should I be able to copy/paste in the html editor??

Yes, copy and Paste should work

I haven’t tested this but should the following html be better as it should work for any size column?

<table width="100%">

Hope this helps.

If Java would have implemented the HTML specs properly, that would be better. Unfortunally, HTML inside Java has it’s limitation…

In other words, width=“100%” doesn’t work. Maybe there are other ways of achieving the same result in HTMl that do work. At least, the HTML code i gave does work.
