[FNR] Header group alignment ignored

[The_Jackal]

HeaderGroupConfig.setHorizontalAlignment is ignored.

Code:
Use the code from the Showcase ColumnGroupingExample and replace the line:

cm.addHeaderGroup(0, 0, new HeaderGroupConfig("Header Grouping Example", 1, 5));

with:

HeaderGroupConfig h1 = new HeaderGroupConfig("Header Grouping Example", 1, 5)
h1.setHorizontalAlignment(HorizontalAlignment.RIGHT);
cm.addHeaderGroup(0, 0, h1);

Also you can not set the alignment of the normal column header (it is always left aligned)

Are you sure about this? this should be fixed in SVN since revision 1932.


The group alignment is fixed in SVN as of revision 2106 now

Thanks - that was fast - this is in the 2.2 branch - is GWT 2 a requirement for this branch or will it still build for GWT 1.7.0?

Yes I see it - would be be possible in the future to add separate alignment of header from the reset of the column. He's a use case: I have money, numeric and text values in my columns and like Excel I align each differently. But I always want the header to be centred. So in this case separation for header and data alignment is needed. Maybe a setHeaderAlignment() on the ColumnModel

Your suggestion can first be looked at in GXT3.

GXT 2.2 will stll support GWT 2 and GWT 1.7. Only the next major release will drop support of GWT 1.7.
