cl_gui_textedit with fixed lines

former_member216100 — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 09:46:54 GMT

Dear All,

I'm using cl_gui_textedit that the user can add

some text.

Now we need to restrict it max 5 lines and max 40 per line

so a max of 200 char.

I use at the moment

CREATE OBJECT g_editor
          EXPORTING
           parent = g_editor_container
           wordwrap_mode =
              cl_gui_textedit=>wordwrap_at_fixed_position
           wordwrap_position = 40
           MAX_NUMBER_CHARS  = 200
           wordwrap_to_linebreak_mode = cl_gui_textedit=>true.

but now if the user dont fill every line until 40 he can write

much more than 5 lines.

I know I can finaly ask with

CALL METHOD g_editor->get_line_count

the count of lines but if possible I want to restrict it

before he press save button.

I tried also to fill the 5 lines with space but does not work

any idea ?

Please help... thanks

Is this possible ? Or can I fill

Set it in the simple data type length or else try it in length property of inputfield.

    DO 5 TIMES.
      WA_MYTABLE(LINE_LENGTH) = SPACE.
      APPEND WA_MYTABLE TO G_MYTABLE.
    ENDDO.
