SAP Text Properties in SAP Netweaver

You can specify how text is displayed in individual areas of the ALV output as follows:

● Horizontal alignment within a column

● Horizontal alignment within a cell variant

● Font size and style in a cell

This function is only available in the cell editor TEXT_VIEW. Here, you can choose the preconfigured formatting that you want to use (seeDesign in TextView Properties).

You can also set the read direction here.

● Line break in a cell

This function is only available in the cell editors TEXT_VIEW, LINK_TO_ACTION, and LINK_TO_URL. If the text contains characters that permit a line break (such as spaces and hyphens), the text can be distributed across multiple lines.

For more information about how to permit line breaks in column headers, see Column Headers.

● Font color in a cell (see Color of ALV Output, Columns, and Cells)

● Alignment, font size, and font style in a design object for the header or footer area (see Design Object Settings)
