My reports preview is ok.
But now, I need to export to pdf...and I've got an issue : the content of some cells are truncated to the witdh of the column.
For instance, 1 cell should display "BASELINE"...in the preview it's ok...but in pdf, it displays "BASEL".
I've been looking for a solution the whole day and did not find anything...
Of course : I don't want to fit the width of the column on the length of this word "BASELINE" because the content is dynamic...
Instead, I want to fix the column width and then, the cell should display something like that :
BASEL
INE
Any idea ?
Thanks in advance (am a little bit desperated...)
The solution is trivial in BIRT v4.9 if you've integrated the engine into your java code. Just set the PDF rendering options.
RenderOption options = new PDFRenderOption();
options.setOutputStream(out);
options.setOutputFormat("pdf");
options.setOption(PDFRenderOption.PDF_WORDBREAK, true);
options.setOption(PDFRenderOption.PDF_TEXT_WRAPPING, true);
task.setRenderOption(options);
You have to set a special PDF emitter option:
PDFRenderOption options = new PDFRenderOption();
options.setOption(PDFRenderOption.PDF_HYPHENATION, true);
This is if you integrated BIRT into your Java program.
For the viewer servlet, it is possible to set such options, too, AFAIK, but I don't know how; maybe on the URL or using environment variables.
I had the same issue. I found a very good topic about that : http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/topic/19827-how-do-i-use-word-wrap-in-report-design/?s=173b4ad992e47395e2c8b9070c2d3cce
This will split the string in the given number of character you want :
The function to add in a functions.js (for example). To let you know, I create some folder in my report project : one for the reports, one for the template, one for the libraries, another for the resources, I added this js file in the resources folder.
/**
* Format a long String to be smaller and be entirely showed
*
*#param longStr
* the String to split
*#param width
* the character number that the string should be
*
*#returns the string splited
*/
function wrap(longStr,width){
length = longStr.length;
if(length <= width)
return longStr;
return (longStr.substring(0, width) + "\n" + wrap(longStr.substring(width, length), width));
}
You will have to add this js file in the reports : in the properties -> Resources -> Javascript files
This is working for me.
Note: you can add this function in your data directly if you need only once...
The disadvantage of this : you will have to specify a max length for your character, you can have blank spaces in the column if you specify a number to small to fill the column.
But, this is the best way I found. Let me know if you find something else and if it's working.

In After Effects scripts, if you want your script to be able to be docked in the program's workspace, the only way to do it as far as I know is to use a resource string like this:
var res = "Group{orientation:'column', alignment:['fill', 'fill'], alignChildren:['fill', 'fill'],\
group1: Group{orientation:'column', alignment:['fill', ''], alignChildren:['fill', ''],\
button1: Button{text: 'Button'},\
},\
}";
myPanel.grp = myPanel.add(res);
The above code creates a script UI with one button ("button1") inside a group ("group1").
I would like to know other ways to create the same resource string. Is it possible to make it using a JSON object and then stringifying it??
I know it can be done somehow, because I have inspected the Duik Bassel script that is dockable and, for example, adds elements like this:
var button1 = myPal.add( 'button' );
but I cannot understand how to do it myself.
TL;DR: I want to make a dockable scriptUI without writing a giant string all at once, but bit by bit, like a floating script.
UI container elements have an add() method which allows you to add other UI elements to them, and you can treat them as normal objects.
var grp = myPanel.add("group");
grp.orientation = "column";
grp.alignment = ['fill', 'fill'];
grp.alignChildren = ['fill', 'fill'];
var group1 = grp.add("group");
…
var button1 = group1.add("button");
button1.text = 'Button'
More details and examples here: https://extendscript.docsforadobe.dev/user-interface-tools/types-of-controls.html#containers
Also worth checking out https://scriptui.joonas.me/ which is a visual scriptUI interface builder. You have to do some work on the code it produces to get panels for AE, but it's not hard.
extendscript still uses a 20th century version of javaScript, which doesn't have JSON built-in, but I have successfully used a JSON polyfill with it.
I used json2.js to get structured data in and out of Illustrator, and it worked beautifully, but I can see there's now a json3.js which might be better for whatever reason. This stackoverflow question addresses the differences.
To load another .js file (such as a polyfill) into your script, you need to do something like
var scriptsFolder = (new File($.fileName)).parent; // hacky but effective
$.evalFile(scriptsFolder + "/lib/json2.js"); // load JSON polyfill
These file locations may differ in other Adobe apps. Not sure what it would be in AfterEffects. I seem to remember that InDesign has a different location for scripts. You can also hardcode the path, of course.
Good luck!
Hi guys ,
I'm currently working on a Drupal project which use the Panelizer module by overriding the default node display. The panel for this content type is made width a lot of rules and specifications in order to display some specific content (like views) according some fields.
Now I need to print in PDF the same content that is displayed by the panelizer module but in another display (in one column ), so I cloned the display I use and rearranged it to display what I want.Then I want to use this display width the print module but I didn't managed to do that.
Any idea how can I do that ?
I just can't use the default node render, because I would miss some informations dues to the specifications used in the panel, and I can't print the panelized content because it's not the same display.
I read this thread but how can I say to the print module to use the "print" display I cloned instead of the default one ?
Any suggestions or ideas will be appreciated or if you have another idea for doing that you're welcome :)
Thank you !
In your print pdf template you can load the node then create a view with the display and finally render it : drupal_render(node_view(node_load($node->nid), "name of your display")) ;
Another way is to alter node entity info, telling that 'print' view can be panelized, i.e.
/**
* Implements hook_entity_info_alter().
*/
function mymodule_entity_info_alter(&$entity_info) {
$entity_info['node']['view modes']['print']['custom settings'] = TRUE;
...
}
After that, you go to panelizer settings of your content type(s), and set whatever you want for the print view mode
I'm using docx4j to convert a Word template to several HTML files, one per chapter.
The Word template has several custom properties mapped by several fields (DOCPROPERTY ...) represented as both simple and complex fields. I populate those properties to obtain Freemarker code when the word document is converted to HTML (like ${...} or [#... /] directives).
In a later step I look for "heading 1" paragraphs to identify chapters and then split the document in several Word documents before conversion, then these documents are converted to HTML and written to temporary files.
Each document is successfully converted to HTML and fields are correctly replaced with my markers, but it behaves wrong when it writes header and footer parts: field codes are written before field values (eg. DOCPROPERTY "PROPERTY_NAME" \* MERGEFORMAT ${constants['PROPERTY_NAME']} ) instead of field values only (eg. ${constants['PROPERTY_NAME']} ).
If I write the updated document to a docx file instead, nothing seems wrong into the generated document.
If it's useful to solve the problem, this is what I do to split the document (per chapter):
clone the updated WordprocessingMLPackage (clone method)
delete every root element before the chapter's "heading 1" element
delete every root element from the "heading 1" element of the next chapter
convert the cloned and cleaned document
(actually I don't use the clone method every time, but I write the updated document to a ByteArrayOutputStream and then read it for every chapter, inspired by the source of the clone method).
I suspect it's for a docx4j bug, did anybody else try something similar?
Finally these are my platform details:
JDK 1.6
Docx4J v3.2.2
Thanks in advance for any help
EDIT
To produce freemarker markers in place of Word fields, I set document property values as follows:
traverse the document looking for simple or complex fields with new TraversalUtil(wordMLPackage.getMainDocumentPart().getContent(), visitor);, where visitor is my custom callback for looking for fields and set properties
traversing the document I look for
FldChar elements with type BEGIN and parse them using FieldsPreprocessor.canonicalise((P) ((R) fc.getParent()).getParent(), fields); (I don't use the return value of canonicalise) where fc is the found FldChar and fields is a empty ArrayList<FieldRef>; then I extract and parse field's instrText attribute
CTSimpleField elements and parse them using FldSimpleModel fldSimpleModel = new FldSimpleModel(); fldSimpleModel.build((CTSimpleField) o, null);; then I use fldSimpleModel.getFldArgument() to get the property name
I look for the freemarker code to show in place of the current field and set it as property value using wordMLPackage.getDocPropsCustomPart().setProperty(propertyName, finalValue);
finally I do the same from step 1 for headers and footers as follows:
List<Relationship> rels = wordMLPackage.getMainDocumentPart().getRelationshipsPart().getRelationships().getRelationship();
for (Relationship rel : rels) {
Part p = wordMLPackage.getMainDocumentPart().getRelationshipsPart().getPart(rel);
if (p == null) {
continue;
}
if (p instanceof ContentAccessor) {
new TraversalUtil(((ContentAccessor) p).getContent(), visitor);
}
}
Finally I update fields as follows
FieldUpdater updater = new FieldUpdater(wordMLPackage);
try {
updater.update(true);
} catch (Docx4JException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(WorkerDocx4J.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
After filling all field properties, I clone the document as previously described and convert filtered cloned instances using
HTMLSettings settings = Docx4J.createHTMLSettings();
settings.setWmlPackage(wordDoc);
settings.setImageHandler(new InlineImageHandler(myDataModel));
Docx4jProperties.setProperty("docx4j.Convert.Out.HTML.OutputMethodXML", true);
ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
os.write("[#ftl]\r\n".getBytes("UTF-8"));
Docx4J.toHTML(settings, os, Docx4J.FLAG_EXPORT_PREFER_XSL);
String template = new String(os.toByteArray(), "UTF-8");
then I obtain in template variable the resulting freemarker template.
The following XML is the content of footer1.xml part of the document generated after updating the document properties as described: footer1.xml after field updates
The very strange thing (in my opinion) is that if some properties are not found, step 5 throws an Exception (ok), fields updating stops at the wrong field (ok) and all fields in header and footer are rendered right. In this case, this is the content for footer1.xml.
In the last case, fields are defined in a different way. I think the HTML converter handles well the last case and does something wrong in the first one.
Is there something I do wrong or I can do better?
My program displays an ABAP list, I'm trying to show a header (some lines of text, nothing fancy) fixed when scrolling down in a report.
Is there some kind of tag or declaration that I have to use?
In SE38 you can define list heading with 'GOTO -> Text Elements -> List Headings`.
You can define a list header, and titles for your list (Columns heading).
One advantage: With GOTO -> Translations you can define different texts in different languages.
Another way to get this maintenance screen:
From your list, you can choose: System -> List -> List Header.
Another way:
You can use top-of-page to define your header text inside your report code.
top-of-page.
write 'My header'.
You can use the TOP OF PAGE event to write something that will stick at the top of the page while scrolling. You can find more info here.
You can also use the list headers from Text Elements menu. More info here.
Best regards,
Sergiu
One way is directly using top-of-page in your code.
Other way is calling reuse_alv_grid_display or reuse_alv_list_display (depending on your output type) and declaring "top-of-page" in the I_CALLBACK_TOP_OF_PAGE line. Then create a sub-routine with the same name as your "top-of-page". In that you can write
wa_list-typ = 'H'.
wa_list-info = ''.
APPEND wa_list to it_list.
clear wa_list.
OR
wa_list-typ = 'A'.
wa_list-info = 'Report Header'.
APPEND wa_list to it_list.
clear wa_list.
OR
wa_list-typ = 'S'.
wa_list-info = 'Report Header'.
APPEND wa_list to it_list.
clear wa_list.
depending on what you want (header, action or selection).
Finally you can use REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE function and call the table(in this example it_list).
Hope it helped.
Goal:
Display the result without using any line between column and row
Problem:
I can't remove these line

In the textbox properties for each cell of the grid, just make sure you set the BorderWidth property to 0.
Due to very limited info in the question maybe try Results-to-text instead of Results-to-grid?
I think that we need more info here... are you showing these results in a HTML page, through some dynamic language (ASP, PHP, Ruby)? or are you using reporting tools like Crystal Dynamics?
If you're doing in HTML, I guess the css rule border-collapse:collapse on the table would do the trick
