Description

Hi,

in case of attribute table field contents, which are too long to fit into the visible part of the field, currently the end of the string (number) is shown. It would be nice to show the beginning instead. Example:

Currently (here the central column number is rather hidden):

|bla|000000000|blub|

Wish (here it looks better):

|bla|50.000000|blub|

Would be nice to get that fixed.

Thanks,
Markus

I couldn't find any way how to change this behaviour easily. It's possible to use custom cell drawing but that involves quite some work.

In next version we should port attribute table from current Qt3 compatibility class Q3Table to new Qt4 model-view framework. This might be a part of the redesign so I'm shifting this to 0.9 release.

A fix is in svn 3d951b6e (SVN r7795). Note that I haven't made the cells left justified as this can then upset the alignment of numbers or text in successive rows. Rather, I have set the table to automatically expand the column widths to show all data in that column and left the contents as right justified.
