Question about AES print / printTable()

tobias_raab · Post by **tobias_raab** » Tue Nov 24, 2020 8:43 am

Hey,

short question, is it possible to change the column width of a print out which uses the printTable() function like the AES screen?
It seems that the current column width is not affecting the print out, but then the print out might be unusable. Am I missing something?

Best regards,
Tobias

PS: the Attachments function (in this forum) seems broken, I can't upload anything.

When using WinCC OA 3.17 the function printTable() has a new optional parameters "options" with a mapping.
The mapping can have a key "fitToWidth" which possibly has the effect that the column width is changed automatically to fit the text.

I did not test, I just had a look at the documentation.

In the code for the AEScreen this option is not used.

Hi,

i tested both functions (aes_doPrintTable and aes_as_printTable) with the AES.
Had to fiddle around to make it work but in the end both functions worked but both functions produced the exact same result.
The columns in the print out are not responsive to anything. Not to the flag "fitToWidth", not to manually changed column width in the table before printing.

Could you please have a look at this or shall I open a service request?

Best regards,
Tobias
