Troubleshooting
Problem
When you apply the text-justify attribute, for example distribute-all-lines, to List Report cell(s), the browser does not render this settings appropriately.
Symptom
All justified text will be simply rendered as a default style.
Cause
HTML browser can not recognize the text-align attribute against table elements, <TD> tags. To demonstrate it, you may see no difference between below each HTML text-justify style definitions.
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TR><TD width="100" style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; TEXT-JUSTIFY: distribute-all-lines">This is "distribute all lines" justify</TD></TR>
<TR height="50"></TR>
<TR><TD width="100" style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; TEXT-JUSTIFY: inter-word">This is "inter word" justify</TD></TR>
<TR height="50"></TR>
<TR><TD width="100" style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; TEXT-JUSTIFY: news-paper">This is "news paper" wording justify</TD></TR>
</TR>
</TABLE>
Environment
NOTE: Internet Explorer only. Firefox does not respect the text-align attributes.
Resolving The Problem
Insert "table-layout:fixed" style into <TABLE> tag. To do so in Report Studio, you should check the "fix size" property of List attributes.
- Navigate and select List object.
- On Properties pane, open Positioning > Table Properties dialog.
- Enable "Fixed size" check box.
