mlreportgen.dom.ResizeToFitContents class

Package: mlreportgen.dom

Allow table to resize its columns

Description

Specifies whether a table resizes its columns to fit content.

The mlreportgen.dom.ResizeToFitContents class is a handle class.

Creation

Description

resizeToFitContentsObj = ResizeToFitContents() allows a table to resize its columns to fit their contents.

resizeToFitContentsObj = ResizeToFitContents(tf) allows a table to resize its columns to fit their contents, if tf is true.

Input Arguments

value — Allow table to resize its columns

logical value

A setting of true (or 1) allows a table to resize its columns to fit their contents. A setting of false (or 0) causes the content to wrap.

Data Types: logical

Properties

Id — ID for this document element

character vector | string scalar

ID for this document element, specified as a character vector or string scalar. The DOM generates a session-unique ID when it creates the document element. You can specify your own ID.

Attributes:

GetAccess	public
SetAccess	public
NonCopyable	true

Data Types: char | string

Tag — Tag for this document element

character vector | string scalar

Tag for this document element, specified as a character vector or string scalar.

The DOM generates a session-unique tag as part of the creation of this object. The generated tag has the form CLASS:ID, where CLASS is the object class and ID is the value of the Id property of the object. Specifying your own tag value can help you to identify where an issue occurred during document generation.

Attributes:

GetAccess	public
SetAccess	public
NonCopyable	true

Data Types: char | string

Value — Allow table to resize its columns

logical value

A setting of true (or 1) allows a table to resize its columns to fit their contents. A setting of false (or 0) causes the content to wrap.

If you set this property to true and also have set a column width using mlreportgen.dom.Width, the resulting column width depends on the output format. For PDF output, the table uses the specified column width and ignores the ResizeToFitContents setting. For all other output formats, ResizeToFitContents overrides the column width settings.

Data Types: logical

Examples

Resize Table Columns to Fit Content

Create a table and specify to resize the column widths to fit the widest table entry in the column.

import mlreportgen.dom.*;
doctype = 'html';
d = Document('test',doctype);

append(d,Heading(1,'Table 1'));
table1 = Table(arrayfun(@(x) Text(), ones(4))); % Create a table with text entries
table1.entry(1,2).Children(1).Content = 'MathWorks';

table1.Style = {ResizeToFitContents(true),Width('1in'), ...
    Border('solid'),RowSep('solid'),ColSep('solid')};

append(d,table1);

Create a second table, but do not have the columns resize to fit content.

append(d,Heading(1,'Table 2'));
table2 = Table(arrayfun(@(x) Text(), ones(4))); % Create a table with text entries
table2.entry(1,2).Children(1).Content = 'MathWorks';

table2.Style = {ResizeToFitContents(false),Width('1in'), ...
    Border('solid'), RowSep('solid'),ColSep('solid')};

append(d,table2);

Run the report.

close(d);
rptview(d.OutputPath,doctype);
