EditTable font

jimvaughan

If I use the font property on a standard edittable the cell height changes to match the new font.

If I use Set_Property(OLECtrlEntID, "OLE.CellFont[field; record]", FontArray) to do the same thing the cell height is not adjusted, how do I adjust the cell height so all the text fits?

Does the DataRow property serve your needs here? Just set the desired height and use the keyword "All" to apply to all rows.

Maybe, I assume the Autosized value would do the trick.

If not I would somehow need to calculate the height of the font.

DonBakke

Let's take a step back. Are you hardcoding the font size or do you allow users to set this?

Thankfully, the SRP_String GetHeight service makes this easy.

Ha, OK let me play with this, we have a user that needs a bigger font.

jimvaughan

On the OI edittables we use we allow the user to set the font, I want to allow users to do the same thing on the SRP edittables we use.

DonBakke

That helps me understand your goals. Then using the SRP_String function is probably your best bet.

Ok, I got that working. however I also want to adjust the font for the header, I used OLE.HeaderFont[ALL;ALL]. This works but again the height is not adjusted, do we have a property for header height?

KevinFournier

The HeaderRow property.

Thanks Kevin.

Thanks to both of you, I have it working.
