View content of a readonly cell

Getting help Questions

Hi,

what is the best way of viewing data in readonly cells?

Problem: I’ve got a readonly cell which has some lines of data in it.
If I set word-wrap to true I can see all of the data, but the line height gets too big.

IF I set word-wrap to false, I can’t see all the data. I have to manually increase the column size.
Is there a way to show the data in a popup on double click the cell. Or maybe to enable word-wrap on cell double click?

Thanks for your help

Hi @johnny.petersen

Can you prepare a draft of an expected and present behavior? I will try to figure out some approaches.

Hi Aleksandra,

I don’t have any “special” solution in my mind. I thought that I’m maybe not the only one facing this problem and that
you might have a “common” solution for that.
So, how can I view all the data (multiple lines, long text) in a readonly cell?
In Excel e.g. the content of a read only cell is shown in the input row at the top of the sheet.

Do you have a recommendation or best practice how to establish this?

Thanks

If you have similar settings like here http://jsfiddle.net/9e5ezwm1/
Where the text is truncated I would recommend using comments to add the full description of the cell.
