Dynamic preferred min column width in composite layer [message #1766518] Thu, 22 June 2017 14:19 Go to next message

Hello,

How can i get the preferred min width of each column in composite layer? I want the column resize event to fire only if the new column width is more than the preferred width.

I have seen the class MaxCellBoundsHelper, but it is only used in AutoResizeColumnCommandHandler, which requires gridlayer.

By now i have written a custom ColumnResizeCommandHandler and set the min possible width to 75. But this solution i dun find satisfactory.

My table looks as following.
ColumnLabelAccumulator labels = new ColumnLabelAccumulator();
final DataLayer bodyDataLayer = new DataLayer(bodyDataProvider);
bodyDataLayer.setConfigLabelAccumulator(labels);
bodyDataLayer.registerCommandHandler(new CustomColumnResizeCommandHandler(bodyDataLayer));
SelectionLayer selectionLayer = new SelectionLayer(bodyDataLayer, false);
ViewportLayer viewportLayer = new ViewportLayer(bodyDataLayer);
ConfigRegistry configRegistry = new ConfigRegistry();

// build the column header layer stack
IDataProvider columnHeaderDataProvider = new DefaultColumnHeaderDataProvider(propertyNames, propertyTranslationMap);
DataLayer columnHeaderDataLayer = new DataLayer(columnHeaderDataProvider);
ColumnHeaderLayer columnHeaderLayer = new ColumnHeaderLayer(columnHeaderDataLayer, viewportLayer, selectionLayer);

// create the composite layer composed of only column and viewportlayer
CompositeLayer compositeLayer = new CompositeLayer(1, 2);
compositeLayer.setChildLayer(GridRegion.ROW_HEADER, columnHeaderLayer, 0, 0);
compositeLayer.setChildLayer(GridRegion.BODY, viewportLayer, 0, 1);
compositeLayer.addConfiguration(new AbstractUiBindingConfiguration() {

@Override
public void configureUiBindings(UiBindingRegistry uiBindingRegistry) {
uiBindingRegistry.registerFirstMouseMoveBinding(
new ColumnResizeEventMatcher(SWT.NONE, GridRegion.ROW_HEADER, 0),
new ColumnResizeCursorAction());

uiBindingRegistry.registerFirstMouseDragMode(
new ColumnResizeEventMatcher(SWT.NONE, GridRegion.ROW_HEADER, 1),
new ColumnResizeDragMode());
}
});

// create and configure nattable
parent.setLayout(new GridLayout(1, true));
final NatTable natTable = new NatTable(parent, compositeLayer, false);
natTable.setLayoutData(new GridData(GridData.FILL, GridData.FILL, true, true));
natTable.addOverlayPainter(new NatTableBorderOverlayPainter());

natTable.addConfiguration(new ModernNatTableThemeConfiguration());
natTable.addConfiguration(new DefaultNatTableStyleConfiguration() {
{
this.cellPainter = new LineBorderDecorator(new TextPainter(false, false, 5, false, true));
}
});
natTable.configure();

I don't understand your requirement. NatTable does not have a concept for a minimum preferred column width. If you resize a column by dragging the column border, a min width of 25 pixels is used, which is currently hard coded in the ColumnResizeDragMode. If you want to change that you can extend ColumnResizeDragMode, override getColumnWidthMinimum() and register your class instead of the default.

If you want to add handling of a minimum column width in combination with the ColumnResizeCommand, then registering a custom ColumnResizeCommandHandler that is able to handle a minimum width is the right way to go. Even if it is not satisfying for you.

If you want a more satisfying solution, feel free to contribute to the project and introduce minimum width configurations.

BTW AutoResizeColumnCommandHandler does not require a GridLayer. You can also register it with two layers to make the index-position transformation possible.
