TppDBMemo FullJustified

rbuser

Hi,

It's probable that this bug has been reported before, but how I didn't
found the thread related to this, there goes:

I have a TppDBMemo with TextAlignment = taFullJustified; the alignment
works, except when I have blank space(s) in the begining of the line.

Is this fixed?

Regards,

Mauro.

Hi Mauro,

This is not a known issue with the DBMemo component. Which version of
ReportBuilder are you using? Are you certain the memo you are assigning the
DBMemo is not indented at the beginning? In my testing using the "Notes"
field of the Biolife table in the DBDEMOS database, the full justified text
did not have space at the beginning of the memo.

Hi Nico Cizik,

Yes, the Memo is indented at the beginning. That's what I mean with
"blank space(s) in the beginning of the line". I've wrote a text and
inserted some blank spaces in beginning of the first line to pretend a
Tab. This done the right margin of the first line goes beyond the bounds
of the component.

Version of RB: 9.02 - Demo Copy.

Thanks.

Here am I again...

When you asked if the memo is indented means that if it is indented
(that is the case) this "bug" will always occur?

Regards,

Mauro.

Hi Maruo,

Sorry for the delay. I'm still confused about what the problem is. In my
testing with an indented DBMemo, the full justification seems to work
correctly. What about the indented text on your screen or printer is
incorrect?

Both, screen and printer.

I'll try to describe an example.

I have the following text:

"abc abcd abcde abcdef abcdefg"

It's shown like this:

abc abcd abcde
abcdef abcdefg

Then I insert some blank spaces before the first character
" abc abcd abcde abcdef abcdefg"

The result is anything like this (observe that the "de" characters are
beyond the bounds of the component:

abc abcd abcde
abcdef abcdefg

In the situation above I was waiting for a result like:

abc abcd
abcde abcdef
abcdefg

Thanks.

Mauro.

Hi Mauro,

If the component is big enough to fit the "abcde" word on the first line it
will. By default the last line of a paragraph will print normally (non full
justified) leaving the space at the end of the line. Try setting the
ForceJustifyLastLine property to True and see if that gives you the effect
you are after.

Hi Nico Cizik,

That's the point, the component is not big enough to fit the text, but
the text trespass the right limit of the component.

Plesa see http://www.nocegos.com.br/images/preview1.jpg and
http://www.nocegos.com.br/images/preview2.jpg

These are the Print Screen of the report that I'm talking about.

The text inside the memo is a single paragraph (no carriage return).

Hope this help.

Mauro.

Hi Mauro,

Thanks for the images. I now see what is happening, however I am unable to
recreate this behavior on my machine. Please send a small example
demonstrating this behavior in .zip format to support@digital-metaphors.com
and I'll take a look at it and solve the problem as quickly as possible.
