Column Width Optimise not working

[Pawan_Kesari]

Columnwidth optimise is not working in my case. I know its very simple, just set lvc_s_layo-col_opt = 'X' in layout and pass it to grid in method set_table_for_first_display.

Surprisingly, when I open the layout of grid, it show checkbox 'Optimise Columns' checked and when I press 'ok ' it optimise the columns.

Background:

On module pool screen I have two ALV GRID (cl_gui_alv_grid) displayed by spitting the screen using splitter control (cl_gui_easy_splitter_container) .

Hi Pawan,

Try calling the REFRESH_TABLE_DISPLAY method after initially displaying the ALV. This should get around your issue.

The problem is you use wrong atribute

try this: gs_layout-CWIDTH_OPT = 'X'.

Filip, I mentioned the wrong fieldname here (copied from fieldcat instead of layout), it was actually cwidth_opt.

This particular ALV grid was getting data at runtime based on user interaction. After assigning the data I called method refresh_table_display and data is refreshed on screen, however the column were not optimised.

Before refresh_table_display I called the method set_frontend_layout and this solved the problem.

Thanks for your time!!
