How to deal with too many columns?

[Stefan-EA]

I have a Web DynPro Java application that has a context node with 15 columns.

Context
|-MasterNode
    |-SubNode
	|-Column1	
	|-Column2	
	|-Column3	
	|-Column4	
	|-Column5	
	|-Column6	
	|-Column7	
	|-Column8	
	|-Column9	
	|-Column10
	|-Column11
	|-Column12
	|-Column13	
	|-Column14	
	|-Column15	

I need to be able to display all 15 columns, but I cant display them all on one row, as there is not enough room. For each row, I want to display the columns on three lines, as follows:

(Row 1) Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4 Column5	
       Column6 Column7 Column8 Column9 Column10
       Column11 Column12 Column13 Column14 Column 15
(Row 2) Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4 Column5	
	Column6 Column7 Column8 Column9 Column10
	Column11 Column12 Column13 Column14 Column 15
(Row 3) Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4 Column5	
	Column6 Column7 Column8 Column9	Column10
	Column11 Column12 Column13 Column14 Column 15
(Row 4) Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4 Column5	
	Column6 Column7 Column8 Column9	Column10
	Column11 Column12 Column13 Column14 Column 15

etc.... (The amount of rows is variable)

How would I go about this? Is there a guide/tutorial/blog, etc that has an example?

Im using Live Cylce Designer 7.1 with Web DynoPro Java.

Thank you.

Hi Stefan,

We had a similar issue a while back, and we used the following process to resolve the issue:

• We had to use a mixture of Table and SubForm to tackle the issue. (Include a subform inside the table row)*

Our Hierarchy Structure kind of looked like this:

Table1
	Row1
		Subform (Content = Flowed)
			Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4 Column5	
       			Column6 Column7 Column8 Column9 Column10
       			Column11 Column12 Column13 Column14 Column 15

There could be other\better solutions out there now, but this one worked for us.

Hope this helps,

Harman

Thanks for the info Harman,

I ended up following pages 24-35 from the Best Practices for Creating Adobe Form Designs, which I found [here|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/11789] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken];.
