Table Properties 

Properties in the View Designer

●     accessibilityDescription

Once you have activated accessibility, the assigned text is added to the quick info.This description provides semantic details of the UI element and is only read by the screen reader if the user focuses the complete Ul element.

●     dataSource

Context node with data for the table
Primary Property

●     design

Display of tables.

Value	Visual Display	Description
alternating		White/grey alternative rows, only possible with readOnly
standard		Standard table background has one color. The individual cells are displayed with grid net lines.
transparent		The table background is transparent. The individual cells are displayed without grid net lines.

●     emptyTableText

Text displayed for an empty table.

●     firstActualRow

Row of the table (counted from 0) that corresponds to the first element in the context.This property is used if you want the context to contain only one pane from the table. See Context Paging

Use this property only for tables with extremely large data volumes.

This is not permitted for TreeByKeyTableColumn and TreeByNestingTableColumn.

●     firstVisibleRow

First visible row of the table (counted from 0).

If the firstVisibleRow lies outside of the existing data records, then the first visible row is recalculated internally so that as many rows as possible are visible at the end of the data set. The value however is not written back to the UI element.If the row is actually available in the data records, but the following data records are not sufficient to fill all the rows, empty rows are displayed for the missing data records.  The first visible row is not corrected in this case.

This property, which does not have to be bound, can be changed by the client.See also Properties Used in MultiPane or TablePopin

●     firstVisibleScrollableCol

First visible scrollable column of the table (ViewElement ID)

This property, which does not have to be bound, can be changed by the client.See also Properties Used in MultiPane or TablePopin

●     fixedTableLayout

With fixedTableLayout each table column is precisely as wide as specified.If the content is larger it is cut off on the right. Without fixedTableLayout a column is as wide as specified or as wide as the widest TableCellEditor.

If you use scrollableColCount=-2, fixedTableLayout should be set.

●     footerVisible

The footer area is visible with table paginators.

If footerVisible is switched on, but visibleRowCount = -1 and scrollableColCount = -1, still no footer area is displayed.

●     gridMode

Grid mode.

Value	Description
both	Horizontal and vertical lines are displayed
horizontal	Horizontal lines are displayed
none	The table has no grid lines
vertical	Vertical lines are displayed

●     legendId

ID of the assigned Legend

●     readOnly

The table differentiates between editable mode and read-only mode. In the editable mode (readOnly=false) input-enabled cells are shown with white a background, and cells not input-enabled are shown with a grayed-out background. Cells are input-enabled when the table enabled is, the TableCellEditor in this table is input-enabled and is not readOnly.

In readOnly mode all cells are not input-enabled. But they are not grayed-out. You can also use semantic colors (TableColumn.cellDesign) and  an alternating background (Table.design=alternating).

InputFields, DropDownByIndex and DropDownByKey are displayed as text.No value list is provided.

CheckBox and RadioButton are readOnly.

●     rowCount

Number of rows displayed in the table (for context paging only).

Number of scrollable columns that can be displayed at the same time.

●     selectedPopin

ID of the popin visible for the row. This is either the ID of the table popin or the column popinLeave this property empty if you do not want to display a popin.

●     selectionChangeBehaviour

If you click on a selection cell, a row is selected. The lead selection (except with singleNoLead and multiNoLead) is set to the associated element.If other selections exist, they are deleted.

In modes, multi, multiNoLead and auto with node cardinality 0..n or 1..n, the following is possible:

○     CTRL+click, CTRL+spacebar

Toggles a selection.

○     SHIFT+click, CTRL+shift  

Selects the area from the lead selection to the row selected. If no lead selection is set, the selection starts from the first row. In the multiNoLead mode, the selection starts from the row last selected

●     visibleRowCount

Number of rows visible at once in the table. With -1 all rows from the dataSource are displayed at once and no paginator is displayed. If the number of rows in the dataSource is smaller than the visibleRowCount, the table is filled with empty rows. These rows are not input-enabled.

●     width

Width of the table The table is at least as big as the specification here, at any rate big enough that the content fits in the table. For this reason we recommend you specify a width only if a percentage value is used for the column width.
