List Manager Forum

Hi,

you can change your styles at the lm css, depending on the version:

joomla/modules/mod_listmanager/assets/css/default2.css
joomla/modules/mod_listmanager/assets/css/default.css

we have set special styles to each column, so you can set fixed sizes for each column, adding the styles:

.lm_column_0{
width: 100px;
}

.lm_column_1{
width: 100px;
}

etc..

, or, set the width for the last column (line 367):

.lm_result table thead tr .lm_tableheader_empty {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #FFFFFF;
width: 100px;
}

Hope this helps, regards

Column Width "Size" controls in the list Edit panel do not have effect. Are these in pixels or %?

Hello,
the size parameter is working with pixels, but it doesn't refer to the list column with, but to the size of the input field when shown at the form (adding or editting data).

If you want to manually set the width of the table columns, you should use css properties as it commented above. Let us know if you need more help with this.

Best regards

I'm trying to edit this css file default2.css in the path you have specified to adjust my column width and it will not affect anything. I've cleared my cache and it's not my browser... Are you sure this is the proper css file?

Hello,
yes, that's the proper path to the css file. Maybe you have any style inherited (maybe from your template), that could make the changes not being visible. If you let us know an url to your list (or place a private ticket if you don't want to publish it here), we'll take a look and confirm which is the stylesheet that's is being applied on your page.

Thanks, regards

You can also search for "white-space: nowrap;" and comment this line out in the hole default.css and default2.css

Are these column-width controls still working the same now (2014)? I tried them in default2.css and they are not working ... does .lm_column_0 mean the leftmost column or first field (maybe not shown)?

.lm_column_0{
width: 100px;
}

.lm_column_1{
width: 100px;
}

etc..

Very powerful css, thanks!

Hello,

Yes, lm_column_0 mean the leftmost column, this is still valid for actual version. Please check if you have any other style that could be conflicting, maybe inherited from your template.
