How to resize the columns of a table??

HI Friends,

Can anyone tell me..How to resize or drag & drop the column widths of the standard or ALV tables, when it is in the output..?

Hi,

Try this if it is 7.0 Enhancement Package1.

data lr_table type ref to cl_salv_wd_config_table. 

lr_table->if_salv_wd_table_settings~set_fixed_table_layout( abap_true ).

Hi Shalini,

You can use the below code to programatically set the width: 

DATA: lv_ref_cmp_usage TYPE REF TO if_wd_component_usage,
         lv_salv_wd_table TYPE REF TO iwci_salv_wd_table,
         lv_table TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_config_table,
         lv_column TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column.

* create an instance of ALV component

  lv_ref_cmp_usage = wd_this->wd_cpuse_alv_table_inst( ). " Use your component name
  IF lv_ref_cmp_usage->has_active_component( ) IS INITIAL.
    lv_ref_cmp_usage->create_component( ).
  ENDIF.

* get ALV component

  lv_salv_wd_table = wd_this->wd_cpifc_alv_table_inst( ).
  lv_table = lv_salv_wd_table->get_model( ).

lv_column = lv_table->if_salv_wd_column_settings~get_column( 'COLUMN_NAME').

lv_column->set_width( '50%').

If you want to set the width in the output display you can always drag the column header in the ALV output like any other table

Hi Shalini,

Use below code to set the width of column and replace the column names in place of FIELD1,FIELD2...  

DATA: l_columns             TYPE salv_wd_t_column_ref,
        ls_columns            LIKE LINE OF l_columns

    DATA: lr_column             TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column,
        lr_column_text        TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column_header,
        l_value               TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_config_table,
        lv_text               TYPE string.

    lo_cmp_usage = wd_this->wd_cpuse_alv_table( ).
  IF lo_cmp_usage->has_active_component( ) IS INITIAL.
    lo_cmp_usage->create_component( ).
  ENDIF.
  lo_interfacecontroller = wd_this->wd_cpifc_alv_table( ).
  l_value = lo_interfacecontroller->get_model( ).

    l_value->if_salv_wd_column_settings~get_columns(
   RECEIVING
     value  = l_columns
     ) .

LOOP AT l_columns INTO ls_columns.
    lr_column = l_value->if_salv_wd_column_settings~get_column( ls_columns-id ).

*    change colomun text.
    CALL METHOD lr_column->get_header
      RECEIVING
        value = lr_column_text.
    IF ls_columns-id EQ 'FIELD1'.
      lv_text = 'Description'.
      lr_column->SET_WIDTH( "90" ) .

ELSEIF ls_columns-id EQ 'FIELD2'.
      lv_text = 'Driver Charges'.
        lr_column->SET_WIDTH( '120' ) .
    ELSEIF ls_columns-id EQ 'FIELD3'.
            lv_text = 'Month-Year'.
        lr_column->SET_WIDTH( '120' ) .

   lr_column_text  = ls_columns-r_column->get_header( ).
    CALL METHOD ls_columns-r_column->create_header
      RECEIVING
        value = lr_column_text.
    CALL METHOD lr_column_text->set_text
      EXPORTING
        value = lv_text.

  ENDLOOP.
