Columns width for procedure that sets best fit

[vit]

Hello!

Related topic for this question is http://www.trichview.com/forums/viewtop ... f=2&t=8709

Now I want to implement SetTableBestFit for the table. As you can see from the source topic, some columns are wider than required and they should be make narrower. So my procedure calcs the content width for each cell in each column (using TCustomRichView.GetItemCoordsEx), puts values into an array of integer (ColsWidth) and then sets BestWidth of all columns to values from the array (Table.Cells[0, c].BestWidth := ColsWidth[c]). And I also set BestWidth to the table:

Code: Select all

Table.BestWidth := SumColsWidth(Table, ColsWidth);

class function TForm1.SumColsWidth(Table: TRVTableItemInfo; ColsWidth:
  TIntegerDynArray): Integer;
var
  c: Integer;
begin
  Result := 0;
  for c in ColsWidth do
    Result := Result + c;

  if Table.ColCount > 0 then
    Result := Result + Table.CellBorderWidth * 2 * Table.ColCount;
end;

Please notice that I add Table.CellBorderWidth * 2 * Table.ColCount to the value that SumColsWidth returns.

When I calculate width of cell items I also increase the result by Width := Width + Table.CellHPadding + Table.CellBorderWidth * 2; (remember that this value is going to be set to Table.Cells[0, c].BestWidth as I described above).

Are these correction that I do in SumColsWidth (Result := Result + Table.CellBorderWidth * 2 * Table.ColCount) and in column's width calculation (Width := Width + Table.CellHPadding + Table.CellBorderWidth * 2) neccessary and adequate for values that are going to be set to Cell.BestWidth and Table.BestWidth? Although the table looks good, I might miss something and the table with other settings like border width, paddigns and spacings will not look in the way I want (word breaks will differ)

Cell.BestWidth (when measured in pixels) does not include cell padding and border width.
So, when the cell width is set by BestWidth, its full width is:

Full-Cell-Width = (CellBorderWidth + CellHPadding) * 2 + BestWidth.

The complete table width is (for simplicity, let all cells have the same width, Full-Cell-Width):

(BorderWidth + BorderHSpacing) * 2 + (Full-Cell-Width) * ColCount + CellHSpacing * (ColCount - 1)

Table.BestWidth includes everything, all cells, spacing and borders.

Full-Cell-Width = (CellBorderWidth + CellHPadding) * 2 + BestWidth.

In my proc I only have cell-content-width. So I need to calc Cell.BestWidth basing on cell-content-width.
