TextView Properties

• design

  Appearance of the TextView UI element. The portal themes provided by SAPdescribe the variations of the design attribute display.

  This property can be personalized by an administrator.

  Value	Visual Display	Description
  emphasized		Text is highlighted in default size
  groupTitle		Header for forms This enumeration value is deprecated . Instead, use SectionHeader . If accessibility mode is activated, with TextView.design=groupTitle the TextView is not integrated in the tab chain, and it must be repeated in the surrounding Container. This is because a ScrollContainer or TransparentContainer with scrollingMode=none (TransparentContainer) is used to group form elements. The title should then be read by a screen reader when the user navigates to the Container. For this reason the text of the accessibilityDescription of the ScrollContainer or TransparentContainer must be added. To prevent the text from being read twice, the TextView with design=groupTitle is not contained in the tab chain.
  header1		Text is highlighted with font size +4 in relation to the default font size.
  header2		Text is highlighted with font size +5.08 cm in relation to the default font size.
  header3		Text is highlighted in default size
  header4		Text is highlighted in font size -1 (small) in relation to the default font size (as with the legend but highlighted)
  label		Text is display in the default font type. A space is always inserted after the text.
  label_small		Text is displayed in default font type, as with label, only with font size is -1 (as with the font size for header4).
  legend		Text is displayed with default font type in size -1.
  reference		Text is in italics and in default font size.
  standard		Text is displayed in default font size. No text attributes are defined for this value.
  monospace		Text is displayed in no-proportional font type. Each letter takes up the same space.

• hAlign

  Horizontal alignment of the content with the TextView UI element.

  To position the text, SAP recommends setting the hAlign value in the LayoutData of the UI element and TableColumn.hAlign and not to use TextView.hAlign. If, however, you do use TextView.hAlign, you should define TextView.layout=block and set a suitable width.

  This property can be personalized by an administrator.

  Value	Description
  auto	Automatic alignment of the text content. The alignment is determined by the data type of the value to be displayed.
  center	Centered alignment
  forcedLeft	The text content is always left-justified, regardless of whether the value is ltr orrtl for the textDirection property.
  endOfLine	The text is always displayed at the end of the line. Therefore, if property textDirection is set to ltr, the text content is right-justified. The text content for the value rtl is left-justified.
  forcedRight	The text content is always right-justified, regardless of whether the value is ltr orrtl for the textDirectionproperty.

This enables labels of interface elements to be read in languages that have an RTL writing direction, such as Arabic or Hebrew, as opposed to LTR for languages like English.

This property can be personalized by an administrator.

• width

  Width of the UI element; see also Methods and Properties of UI Elements .

  The specification of width:

  • wrapping=true

    If required it can be wrapped. The width cannot be guaranteed.

  • wrapping=false

    The text has precisely the specified width. If necessary, the text display is shortened with "...".

• wrapping

  Determines whether the text can be wrapped to the next line, if the space is not sufficient for the surrounding layout. Otherwise the TextView must be as wide as the contained text space and the surrounding layout is correspondingly widened.
