Hi,

I want to know how to introduce Wrapping of text in Column headers, so that entire header is visible in limited column width. I did not find anything in examples.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks,
Sreeram

Register a TextPainter that is configured for wrapping. IIRC there is a TextPainter example in the NatTable examples that shows exactly this.

The column header is nothing different than the body or any other region. You only need to use different labels on registering the styles.

I have gone through those examples but none of them wrap a text on Column Header (though it does for cells in Body region). I also tried following the examples to get wrap functionality in body region, but was unsuccessful.

Tried below code as mentioned in examples for wrapping text in cells of body region:

natTable.addConfiguration(new DefaultNatTableStyleConfiguration() {
{
vAlign = VerticalAlignmentEnum.TOP;
hAlign = HorizontalAlignmentEnum.LEFT;
cellPainter = new LineBorderDecorator(new TextPainter(true, true, true));
}
});

Anything missing here?

Thanks,
Sreeram

Probably that for the column header a painter is registered for label COLUMN_HEADER and you are only specifying a general setting without a label. Therefore the more specific painter wins over the general one.
