Title: Size and Overflow property
Post by: cognos05 on 25 Apr 2014 07:56:32 AM
Hi,

I am trying to change the width of one of my column headers.

I select the Size and Overflow property and change the width,its reflected in the design mode,but when I run the report I couldnt notice any changes.

Thanks,

Did you set it to a pixel size smaller than the longest word or value will fit into? Try setting it to a larger size...

In the properties of the list/crosstab, try checking the "Fixed Size" box in the Table Properties under Positioning.

Hope this helps!

Fixed Size proprty works but it sets the width of the other column values to a smaller one. If I donot the contents of the column then fixed size property will not help.

Size and over flow, I tried with different pixel values, but my column width doesnt change.

Attached the screenshot.

Any help on this.



Thanks,
