OO ALV GRID - Custom control width

[Former Member]

Hi There,

I have a custom program to display details using CL_GUI_ALV_GRID. I tried to increase the length of the custom control, but got an error saying I can only have width about 109 characters. Is there any way I can increase the width further?

Thanks in advance,

Ram.

Rams,

I am assuming that you tried to change the size of the custom control placed on the screen painter. The max size of the screen is 200 x 240, so the max size of the custom control also can be 200 x 240. You just need to make sure you have placed the control right the TOP LEFT corner of the screen. Go to the attributes of the control and change the size there.

In your case looks like the starting point of the control is not the top left corner, that is why its being restricted.

Regards,

Ravi

Thanks Ravi, I have changed the settings for the screen. It was the screen length which was 109 characters. When increased screen length I could increase customer control also.
