2D string array text wrapping

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello,

I would like to know how can we wrap text of just one column in 2D array of strings. 

If I try to wrap just one coloumn entire array gets affected. Please see the image to get a better idea.

See how the numbers look, compared to the texts. How can I wrap the text for just the text?

Hi sandy,

 

can you illustrate, how you want your array to look like after you apply this "wrapping"?

 

Generic answer: in an array all elements share the same properties, they only differ in value…

Best regards,

I meant that numbers need a smaller width compared to the string.

So I wanted to make it look more elagant like the attached image.

Use a Table.  Its data type is a 2D Array of strings (which you already have) and you can set the width of each column individually.
