Resize container created by Splitter

[Former Member]

Dear SAP friends,

How you can resize a container ( NOT custom container) created by splitter?

Methods get_height, get_width return value = 0.

Here are excerpts from my code.

DATA:
      splitter_vh                   TYPE REF TO cl_gui_splitter_container,
      container_middle_left    TYPE REF TO cl_gui_container.
DATA:
  w_height TYPE i,
  w_width  TYPE i.


  CREATE OBJECT splitter_vh
    EXPORTING
      parent  = container_middle
      rows    = 1
      columns = 2.

  container_middle_left         = splitter_vh->get_container( row = 1 column = 1 ). "  tedit1

  CALL METHOD container_middle_left->get_height
    IMPORTING
      height = w_height.
  CALL METHOD container_middle_left->get_width
    IMPORTING
      width = w_width.

  CALL METHOD container_middle_left->set_height
    EXPORTING
      height = 1.
  CALL METHOD container_middle_left->set_width
    EXPORTING
      width = 2.

Hi,

Use the SET_COLUMN_WIDTH or SET_ROW_HEIGHT for adjusting the window size of the containers instead of trying to change the container size. The methods are of the Splitter Container itself.

SKC,

Actually I created 2 containers in my program -I just skipped that code in this post:

  container_middle_left         = splitter_vh->get_container( row = 1 column = 1 ). "  tedit1
  container_middle_right        = splitter_vh->get_container( row = 1 column = 2 ). "  logo html

I want to have them of different row size. This is why your suggestion doesn't work for me.

Of course - I can go and split container_middle_left to make it of different size.

But why whould I do that if there are methods set_height and set_width for a container?

Thanks,

Tatyana
