RichTextPainter and Alignment question [message #1760371]

Hallo,

at the moment I am introducing the RichTextPainter to our nattable to be able to use html contents. This works fine. However the original cell alignment (e.g. center) seems to get lost after registering the RichTextCellPainter.

Am I missing something in constructing the configuration?

final Style style = new Style();
		style.setAttributeValue(CellStyleAttributes.HORIZONTAL_ALIGNMENT,
				HorizontalAlignmentEnum.CENTER);
		configRegistry.registerConfigAttribute(CellConfigAttributes.CELL_STYLE,
				style, DisplayMode.NORMAL);
configRegistry.registerConfigAttribute(CellConfigAttributes.CELL_PAINTER,
				new BackgroundPainter(new RichTextCellPainter()),
				DisplayMode.NORMAL);

Best regards,
Mike

When using the RichTextPainter the styling information needs to be provided by the HTML content. Some basic styling information is applied like font, foreground and background color in case nothing is provided by the HTML content. But there is no inspection of the alignment NatTable styles by the RichTextCellPainter. That needs to be provided by the content.

I'm unsure what would happen if we inspect these styles and wrap the content with a p tag with according style information. That could override the style settings done in the HTML, e.g. if the cell content is edited and styled via RichTextCellEditor.

Fair enough.

This maybe a stupid question: But what would be a simple column content to change the text color and use center-alignment? Simple html code does not work in my application.

I was trying to figure it out with the RichTextEditor in the NebulaRichTextIntegrationExample. But that has some serious resizing issues on my machine.

Best regards,
Mike
