I have a number of fields I wish to display in tabular format via the default table template. Why am I having problems displaying the entire field? The original field is a select dropdown or List autocomplete. No matter what I use, the entire value is not displayed, only the first letter. How can I fix this?

Can you supply more details and screenshots of the field, type, template parameters?

  • Is it the DEFAULT template? Or Adv.Table?
  • You are hiding the actual record title? And the field with "U" is your first column?

Screenshot looks like custom table template.

You need to add attribute to <td> element. <td width="20%">. Add this attribute to all columns except one you want to take the rest.

I have not yet touched any of the template files. I only made a duplicate copy of the default template. I have made no changes outside of that; I have added no customization.

Yes, "U" is the first column.

Hello:

I haven't adjusted the template files, and used only the properties. I'm sure you could glance at this and it'd take 50 seconds to identify the problem.

Table in question: http://bit.ly/1gDLZOU

If you have the opportunity to review, it would be quite helpful!

Thanks.

Pepperstreet, I believe I am already showing the regular Article title. I'm so confused!

You have titles turned off in type parameters. The fact you enabled in in template will not affect.

Also you do not have table head somehow. May this is why table columns take space..

Hmmm, but why does it generate only the first character of the entire value in that field?

was the problem related to anything I did wrong?

No. It was error after fix of [USER_ID] in SQL source.
