Custom Font for Row Headers [message #66003] Fri, 24 July 2009 06:54 Go to next message

Can we set custom fonts for row headers? I want to have certain row headers
to be listed in Bold or Italics, i don't see a way of doing that...

I tried passing a custom Font to RowHeaderLabelProvider through the getFont
method of ColumnLabelProvider, but this didn't worked.

Thanks,

I looked at the source code for the GridColumn and I didn't see a way to set the font for the GridColumn.

I added a getHeaderFont and setHeaderFont() method to the GridColumn class and modified the DefaultColumnHeaderRenderer class to use the HeaderFont in the Paint method and it does what you want it to do.

I will submit these changes as a patch to see if they want to incorporate them into the widget.

I have made the changes and uploaded a zip file containing the modified source files. I went ahead and added custom footer Font support for the GridColumn as well as custom header Font support for the GridColumnGroup.

The bug number is 293743

Here is a link to the patch: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=293743

Matthew, I wasn't sure how you guys normally apply patches so I just included the source files that I modified as the patch.

Please let me know if I am suppose to do it differently.

Thanks,

Marty

Typically the preferred method is to check out the component source from
CVS into your workspace. Make the changes to source files. Open the
Synchronize view and synchronize the sources with CVS to get a list of
the changed files. Select all the changed files, right click, and
select Create Patch. This wizard will generate a patch in the preferred
format.

If you're using Mylyn with the Mylyn-Bugzilla connector it is a little
easier. When you create the patch, select the clipboard as the patch
destination. Then open the bug in Mylyn, add a new attachment and
select the clipboard as the source.

Hi,

I actually requested to have a facility to set custom 'Row Header' fonts. I
guess what you fixed was to have custom 'Column Header' fonts.

Looks like. I don't know OTOH if setting a row-header font is already
available if not file a bugzilla. It should be quite trivial to
implement this feature.

Yes, there is no facility to set header fonts. Filed bug 301096 for this and
attached a patch for a possible fix.
