Question

I have a grid in my GWT application
there are columns and rows which have data , if the data size for every row/column is same ,it works fine , but if some data gets larger , the whole format of my grid disturbs .

attached is the screenshot of my GRID , is there any solution for this ,like can i create a tooltip for larger texts or any other way .

Answer 1

You could define text overflow to ellipsis, so the text in your column will clip.

The text-overflow declaration allows you to deal with clipped text: that is, text that does not fit into its box. The ellipsis value causes three periods to be appended to the text.

.columnOverflow {
    overflow: hidden;
    white-space: nowrap;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
