Column settings - CL_SALV_TABLE

[Former Member]

I'm using CL_SALV_TABLE to create a very simple report. The report only consists of one column. How do I set the column width and align the text to left? I tried set_optimized, but I do not see any difference to the ALV after adding it in. Please advise.

Hi,

For setting column width

DATA :     gr_columns   TYPE REF TO cl_salv_columns,
                 gr_column    TYPE REF TO cl_salv_column.

  CALL METHOD gr_table->get_columns
    RECEIVING
      value = gr_columns.

  gr_column ?= gr_columns->get_column( c_bukrs ).
  gr_column->set_output_length( 12 ).

For alignment

gr_column->SET_ALIGNMENT( IF_SALV_C_ALIGNMENT=>LEFT ).

Hi,

Thanks for the replies. The column width is solved by putting set_optimize before defining the column title.
