Hi all, I have a dynamically configurable datatable. That means the user can select on a configuration
screen which columns should be displayed in this datatable. This is all working fine with the t-columns tag. Now I have two requirements: a) calculate the width for each column b) determine a truncation point for each column a) My first approach is to define a factor for each
column and calculate the %-width based on the columns that should be displayed. I think this could work and I don't know any
alternatives. b) Truncation is working with the truncateOutput
converter of this thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=myfaces-user&m=114476586430404&w=2 But I don't have any idea how to determine the right
position for truncation! If the datatable contains a lot of columns then I
have to truncate the columns earlier. If I display only one or two columns then there is
more space in the datatable and I want to truncate at a later point. (The truncation point could additionally depend on
the screen resolution but this can be disregarded at the beginning.) Has anybody any idea how to achieve this? |
