I have installed Tuleap to my organizations, we have coded for email-parser options.
In that we have created a tracker with Title[String] and Description[Text Area] option.Can you suggest any options to increase the Text area characterization values.
You can specify the number of rows and columns you want to display in the field configuration (in Tracker administration > Manage field usage).

I upgraded a Visual Studio solution containing Crystal Report files. Since the upgrade, the reports are displaying cross hatches (also called number signs: #####) when fields are too narrow to display their values. It was not doing that before. Is there any easy solution?
I have 9 reports, and although I tested them all, and fixed the width of the fields that appeared to be too narrow, when I use different data sets, I always find new cases where the field is too narrow to display the value.
What I have found out is that most of the time, only a few pixels are missing. On the old reports, I can even see that some numbers are cut a bit on the edge, but it does not prevent to read the values. The new version of Crystal Reports replaces those values by #####.
I guess I have two solutions: Enlarge all the fields by a few pixels or reduce the font size. I am not sure though if there is a way to do this globally, or if I have to do this by hand for every field.
Is there an easy way to tell Crytsal Reports, in such field, I want to be able to display let's say 5 digits using Courrier New 10 points?
I using Visual Studio 2012, .Net 4.5 and SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio SP5. The old reports were from the time when Crystal Reports was embedded in VS.
If you can't format the fields to accommodate the largest values from the database, then you don't have many good options without moving to a non-printable-format. These two things might be useful to you:
Enable the clipping of those fields so that they no longer show the '###'. You can do this by right-clicking the number fields having this issue, selecting "Format Field", then go to the "Number" tab, then click "Customize". There should be a check box that reads "Allow Field Clipping". In my mind, this is pretty dangerous as values can appear differently than their true numerical values.
Set the fields to grow when the values are larger than their field size on the canvas. This will extend the fields down the page (I don't believe there is a way to do this horizontally) when necessary. You can access this option by right-clicking the fields, selecting "Format Field", then go to the "Common" tab and select "Can Grow". Note that this doesn't work for numeric fields so you will have to convert it to a string first.
EDIT: Now that I think about it, there is a way to extend a field horizontally, but it's slightly more difficult to pull off and will require calculating and passing the desired width via a formula. You can access this formula by right-clicking those fields, selecting "Size and Position" and clicking the formula button next to "Width".
Whenever I come across #### problem while displaying data to field, I just simply increase width of that crystal reports field
After selecting calendar in campaign form , I need to set text field only display Month/Year
instead of Day/Month/Year. How can I do this?
I attached a screen shot below:
Here its Day/Month/Year, but I need Month/Year.
I suspect that the date-time field is formatted according to the system settings (be that picked from CRM or the user's computer). Not sure if it's editable other than that. I'll take a look at it later today.
In case it's not possible to customize the date format of a single field you've got three options (listed in increasing order of control but also of implementation workload).
Set the system settings according to your wishes.
Add custom fields and control the looks in these.
Create a web resource that behaves exactly as you wish.
I have developed a list in SharePoint. While entering new item in it, like name, if I keep on typing it gets spread over a line making the width of cloumn spread over page. I want to limit the width of site column so as the column's value spreads over multiple lines instead of spreading over one. How can I do this setting?
This is not a setting you can configure in SharePoint. You will need to write some custom code using css and possibly javascript that will set the width of the column. You can make a change like this in SharePoint Designer.
You must use min-width (CSS) in your block.
You have to create custom XSLT for this. There you have loop all the column and need to specify the overflow:auto, hidden,.. CSS property. So it automatically get effect based on your internal name of the field.
So whereever you have the field it automatically get affected. If it for one single view you can use JavaScript to achieve this but this is not right way to do.
The data you are entering can be displayed in many ways. Today in a table format, tomorrow in a dropdown etc. You should distinguish between:
limiting the amount of data that can be entered in a site column (can be done in SharePoint alone, when you design your list)
limiting the wrapping of the words in a table cell today or trimming the values in a dropdown tomorrow (can be done using HTML/CSS "nowrap" if you display the list values in a browser app, or differently if you show the values in a WinForms app)
The calendar widget is too wide for its column in a liferay site im making. I could fix this with some CSS but its a bit of a pain as you can select different time spans, etc. Im new to liferay so is there a standard way of dealing with width problems for applications?
Thanks
Depending on what version you are using, use the Dock or Dock Bar to select a different Layout Template so that the column you're placing the large application is wider.
By default it is a two column 30/70 (meaning 30% for the first column, and 70% for the second).
We have a one-question checkbox (multiple selection) survey in SharePoint.
When selecting "Show a graphical summary of responses" in SharePoint, it tabulates the different combinations of responses as distinct answers as opposed to totaling the number of each option selected.
Is there a way to show the total of each option selected in the Graphical Summary view?
Using only out of the box solutions, no. I have had many users reporting "hey, look, I found a bug in your portal survey" and actually complaining about the problem you're describing here.
The only workaround I've found is to use multiple checkbox fields instead of one multi-choice field. However, this does not look that nice.
