Greg Brown commented on PIVOT-623: ---------------------------------- Hi Roger, I don't completely understand the intent. Could you provide a brief description or example of how this might work in practice? Thanks, Greg > ellipsis style on labels > ------------------------ > > Key: PIVOT-623 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-623 > Project: Pivot > Issue Type: Wish > Components: wtk, wtk-terra > Reporter: Sandro Martini > Assignee: Sandro Martini > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.1 > > Attachments: label.diff > > > Add an ellipsis style on labels (default off), to trim the drawn label if > it's too long in respect of the space assigned. > Depending on the chosen style, ellipsis chars could go at end of the label, > at center, at start, etc ... > Could be useful in some cases to have also "strange" behaviors, like for URLs > or file paths where for example could be useful to trim some parts of the > string but near the end of the path, but keeping the filename part full (if > possible). > Verify if enable user defined behaviors also (for example giving in a > sub-style attribute the full classname of a custom implementation, but maybe > this could be too complex or not in line with other parts in Pivot. > Verify if add also a sub-style attribute to set a different char to use for > the ellipsis (instead of the default "..."). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
