I tried doing auto layout but I keep on getting three dots. How do I fix this?
Screen shot of how it looks below.
Just pinned both edges to 0 to get max width for label regarding screen sizes...and still content is too long then it displays 3 dots as per option truncate tail...For that you have to make a font size bit smaller or make multiline label...

I am using Tableau for data visualization and generating lists that can be exported to Excel.
However, when the amount of columns get too big, I cannot see all my columns in the view (They are there though). The problem is that there doesn't seem to be a horizontal scrollbar. I can scroll vertically through my rows, but I haven't found a way to do this horizontally to look through my columns, the same way you would do at the data source tab.
If anyone could help me to figure out how to achieve this that would be awesome! I am using Tableau Desktop version 2018.3 on a Mac.
Edit: The problem also seems to be on Windows and is not related to the maximum amount of columns or the view mode.
Example image of the described problem
You are not getting scrollbar because you are viewing it on a worksheet. Try putting it on the dashboard and set dashboard size to fixed and increase width to accommodate all columns.
now you will get horizontal scrollbar for sure
thanks
Besides updating the horizontal row/column label limit #Bernardo mentioned here:
You'll need to make sure you've have selected "Standard" from the display option list at the top of the screen. That options prevent Tableau from fitting everything into the height, width or view of your current display.
Tableau shows a horizontal scroll bar for measures, but not for dimensions. When only dimensions are included on either the Columns or Rows shelf, the lower horizontal scroll bar will not display. Dimensions are treated as headers for measure aggregations and do not generate a horizontal scroll bar when they exceed the width of the view.
To change the Table Layout and increase the number of columns and rows in your table, go to:
Analysis > Table Layout > Advanced
Set each of the Maximum values to 16, which is the limit allowed.
I am attempting to get the auto-layout to work correctly. For some reason, when I change the size of the device, all of the images and buttons are out of place and don't resize at all. This is true for the 3.5 inch screen, as well as the ipad retina. When I run the simulator, the app shows exactly how it shows in storyboard. Auto-layout should be resizing everything so that this does not happen. please help!
The issue is that constraints don't scale. When you set a constraint height to 200 it will always be 200, even if the screen is only 100 high. So what you need to do is try to set constraints that makes the size dynamically rather then set the constraint height/widths yourself.
For instance, on your first label under the UIImageView set the constraints leading and trailing to 20, then set the label constraint to center horizontally on the UIImageView. No other constraints for the label. This will cause the label to shrink in width since its set to be 20 away from each side. The height will not change since there is nothing "pushing" it to shrink since you are missing a few constraints, but basically you need to use the top, bottom, leading, and trailing, constraints to the UIViewController view in order to "scale" the elements.
If you'd like I could try and set the constraints for you if you upload the project and you can then watch how I did.
Edit
It's hard for me to know what kind of behaviour you'd want, but something has to scale or change size in your set up. The easiest would be to resize the UIImageView. It's basically impossible to make it look exactly alike in every screen size, though, so you'll have to play around a bit with constraints until you understand how they work and how to adjust them according to what you want. One way is to create the layout you want and then connect them to code and scale them depending on size of the screen (this is a bit of a pain, I did that in a project recently and it took a bit of time and effort).
The easiest approach is to make the UIImageView to change its size when it needs to, and add extra space in the bottom. Here is a demo project I threw together earlier. Download here
Profile pic
1) first you set the profile pic image center horizontal to the content view
2) set height and width for the profile pic
3)set top space constraints to content view
Change Profile pic label
1)set central horizontal to profile pic
2)set width and height
3)set vertical space between profile pic
Challenges Accepted label
1) set vertical space to profile pic label
2) set Leading space to container
3) set height
and do same for the below two content . i didnt tested. check it and try
After a long night of struggling, I figured out what I needed to do. I was setting the individual view controllers to have a simulated size of 4.7inch. This made it hard for the constraints to scale across all devices since I was setting the constraints for a specific screen size. However, this would be the way to go if using size classes.
I solved my issue by using the standard 600 X 600 canvas that is available before choosing a specific size. This way, I was able to set constraints that scaled down for the smaller screens, and scaled up for the larger/HD screens. This works perfectly with auto-layout. Hope that helps someone!
IN SSRS:
I can only add Solid color fills to the data cells inside a matrix.
How do I add Stripes or Patterns as background fill instead of a solid color.
Is there a particular color code like '#xxxx' for stripes?
There are certain rows in my report that need to have stripes or patterns as backgrou fill.
Thanks
I have found some methods around this:
1- You can use image gradients to fill text boxes by right-clicking the cell and selecting text box properties. You can use the Fill tab to select a small image or item that has a gradient or pattern and apply it within your cell(s)/report.
2 - Another approach is to use a combination of Font/Color/Bold/Italic/Underline and Boarder colors/weight to achieve your desired result.
3 - Apply a gradient-style scheme to your report by using one or more colors and dynamically changing the hue as you go up or down the report. That way, the top could be darker than the bottom, or vis-versa.
I hope this helps.
Numerous fonts can be used.
Open the Character Map
Select Arial in the Font drop down
Scroll to near the bottom, select the cross character
Hit the Select button a number of times, grab as many characters as the SSRS textbox may require to fill its width
Click copy
In SSRS select the textbox then Ctrl-P to paste
Experiment with font size and font color to get the desired effect
Setting padding to zero may help
Setting row CanGrow to False may help
I find there is a little gap between cells vertically but it is close to perfect for me. There is likely to be a character in Arial or another font that works even better.
I run into a problem with Geoserver.
I'm drawing multiple icons which each represent a place all over my map using ExternalGraphic.
But geoserver didn't draw them correctly as they are. I attach an image as the result of geoserver drawing:
As you can see, the 2 car icon, both got cut off around 1 pixel comapre to its original size (1 got cut off from top down while another from bottom up). It make same icon look differentfrom place to place. And i think because of this cutting, after lose some pixel, they resize the image back to its original size, which make the $ on top left look blurry compare to the one next to it.
Also as in External graphic document mention, i didn't use any Size attribute so they won't get resize or anything. So i'm not sure why the image got cut off like that.
Any1 can help me about this case ? Thank you in advance.
I suggest you open a report at http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS attaching one of the images and your style document.
I wonder how to define the line spacing in a multi-line lable or text item for pdf output. While increasing the line height within a style works fine, decreasing the height to reduce line spacing doesn't seem to work.
Any suggestions on how to reduce the line pitch?
Thanks
Try removing top and bottom padding. I don't know about labels and text items, and maybe it's not the same, but I had a similar problem in a table with 8pt font in the details. It would look fine in HTML, but in PDF the space between the lines would be huge.
A good trick is to set background colors on the item and the surrounding cell and whatever other elements you have and you'll be able to see which element steals the space.
Then tweak the paddings, line height and font size to reduce the extra space as much as possible. Use the 'Advanced' properties panel (or preferably stylesheets), as line height is not available in 'General' for some elements.
I managed to get my table looking great doing this if I removed ALL top and bottom padding (from row, cell and data element), used a row line height of 10pt and a font size of 8pt.
There seems to be a bug that causes the actual text inside the data element to be somehow padded at the top no matter what in PDF. If you color the data element background and then select the text in the report, you'll see that the text is set too low on the element, overflowing a little at the bottom. Thats the reason 8pt font and 8pt line height wouldn't work for me, it would cut off the bottom of the text.
