Negative number cannot be displayed in table if the column is too narrow

[Former Member]

Hi, All

When a number is formatted as a certain formatting(not locale formmatting),Negative number cannot be displayed in table if the column is narrower than the negative number, just minus is displayed.

Can you help me? Thanks.

Hi,

Did you try to change the width of the column. Try to change it and see if the number is visible.

Else configure the table so the the fit contents in the Layout is set to Actual Size, this will set the table display to the width which you have adjusted.

Let us know if this helps.

Hi,

there are more than 10 columns in this table and the columns cannot be set too broad. at runtime if changing the width of the column the number is visible.

the positive number is visible even the column is too narrow, and the negative number is not normal, just the minus sign is displayed.

Thanks.

Hi,

I think this has nothing to do with positive and negative numbers, By default the alignment of the text is Left, if you dont want to see '-' sign initially then you can change the alignment of the text to center or right in the display tab of properties for that column.

As you as saying that at runtime the numbers are visible if manually adjusted. to icrease the width of that column permanently goto Layout tab of the story board and increase the size of the table and then increase the width of the column.

the Fit Contents in the Layout should be set to "Actual Size".
