Make cell unassailable to random content with reporting tool

Background

Sometimes, the data of a cell may exceed the original cell size. Then, what should we do?

For common reporting tools, there are two major methods.

A method is to dynamically widen cell according to data, or heighten cell by wrapping text. However, users sometimes want to fix the width and height of cell.

Another method is to adjust font like Excel. However, this method is suitable only when data length is not much wider than cell size. Or else, data may be too small to be read.

Therefore, they all have disadvantages.

Solution

As a pure Java reporting tool, RAQ Report provides a wonderful method by combining these two methods ingeniously. It can both wrap text and shrink font when data is excessive. Then, font is shrunken less for better readability. Moreover, RAQ Report can operate not only a character cell, but also a graph cell.

Operation

Users just need to select a page break mode and decide whether to wrap text after report design.

Interesting Example

Now, I will input “wonderful reporting tool” in a cell. With different resizing mode, the display effect is different.
