Re: D2W: Property level component for truncating a string?
There is one that truncates a string. I'm away from computer so can't give exact name. Something like Erxd2wDisplayLargeString ? -- Dr. Mark Wardle Sent with mobile On Wednesday, 6 June 2012 at 04:30, Paul Hoadley wrote: Hello, Is there a property-level component that will truncate a string to some specified length? I'm thinking about attributes with long text values in list views: it would be nice to display, say, the first 20 characters in the table, and then the whole string in the inspect view. Obviously I can write a cover method to do this, but I was just wondering if such a component already exists. -- Paul Hoadley http://logicsquad.net/ ___ Do not post admin requests to the list.

Thanks Mark: ERDDisplayLargeString. I actually looked at that, and skipped over it because its Javadocs are empty. I'll look into the source. In any case, just out of curiosity if nothing else, I'm still interested to know how to get the value of a custom key set in the rules down in my custom property-level component. If I've extended ERDCustomComponent, how do I get the D2WContext, given all of d2wContext(), localContext() and d2wContextFromBindings() are returning null? Is that not the way to do it? (Specifically, I want to read a rule that sets the length at which to truncate the string.) -- Paul Hoadley http://logicsquad.net/ ___ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Thanks David. I'll check it out. I went on to create my own property-level component for this instead. I'm _sure_ this is a FAQ, but: I've subclassed ERDCustomComponent, and I want to get a value for a custom key set in the rules—how do I access the D2WContext from the object?
