Multiline Text Table for Images with RAP [message #1069214]

Hello,

I'm using a table in my Scout-Application to display images (http://wiki.eclipse.org/Scout/HowTo/3.8/Display_images_in_a_table_page). Everything works fine with Swing, but with the Rap-Client the images are displayed single-row.

Does RAP supports multiline tables with images?

I have used RAP with multiple images in the table using the markup features as shown here (http:/ rap.eclipsesource.com/rapdemo/examples#table-markup), but I don't believe that the Scout tables expose the markup capabilities of RAP. I've considered attempting to extend Scout to allow for the markup, but I'm not sure how I would implement the SWT and Swing equivalents.

Also, the inner Table class on the AbstractPageWithTable does expose a "Multiline Text" flag, but I don't know if that works for images or with RAP, just thought I would throw that out there in case you weren't aware of it or if it may point to an alternate solution.

Hi

Have a look at the property rowHeight of the scout table. With this property you can control the height of each row on multiline tables (see javadoc for details). Due to the limitation of the swt api and therefore also the rap api it's unfortunately not possible to have rows with different heights.

Regarding the markup support: Scout allows markup, with swt, swing and rap ui. In fact, the request for markup support initially came from scout developers Wink

(see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=346768).

To use html markup, just wrap your text in <html></html>.

Thank you both for your answers!

I added the rowHeightHint to my Scout-Table and the result was exactly what I intended! Thanks!

@Override
protected int getConfiguredRowHeightHint() {
	return m_imageHeight;
}

Thanks for the feedback. I tried the html markup and it worked like a champ in RAP, even with images. This is a great feature that we will be taking advantage of.

The SWT and Swing did not render the html though. I am using the Kepler release. Not sure if I just missed something though.
