VL Grid

[nic.hall]

Is there any way to wrap the caption in a grid column?

There's no wrapping as such, but you can set the CaptionType to use the field column headings which will give you up to 3 lines.

This seems to work for a VL Grid.
#STD_BIN is a binary field.

Evtroutine Handling(#com_owner.Initialize)
Set Com(#com_owner) Caption(*component_desc)
Use Builtin(HEXTOBIN) With_Args('0D') To_Get(#STD_BIN)
#GridColumn1.caption := 'This is' + #std_bin.AsString + 'a Test'
Endroutine

Ha...Thanks Hamad

I'd forgotten about embedding carriage returns. We added it for hints originally to make the hint of a Compile job more interesting when there are multiple objects being compiled.

A slightly more elegant version is to use (13).AsChar

Code: Select all

#Column.Caption := "Line1" + (13).AsChar + "Line2" + (13).AsChar + "Line3"

In a similar vein, xDemoTraceHandlerDesktop use (09).AsChar to embed a Tab character when constructing a text file.
