Filter Toolbar and changing size of TextFilter input box

Hello,

I have a question about the FilterToolbar.  I just came across it and I love
it.

Except now my page is taking up to much space and the user has to scroll
right to see all my columns.

This is because the text filter boxes are too big for the column they
represent.

How do I change this?  Do I have to create my own TextFilter object and set
the size on the input box?  I can't remember but if you don't set the size
for an input text box I think html defaults to something?

Is that what is happening?

Thanks

Karen

Here's a simple way to do it :

new TextFilteredPropertyColumn<Corbeille, Corbeille>(new
Model<String>("longitude"),
                "pointCollecte.longitude", "pointCollecte.longitude") {

                   @Override
                    public Component getFilter(final String varComponentId,
final FilterForm varForm) {
                        TextFilter<Corbeille> filter =
(TextFilter<Corbeille>) super.getFilter(varComponentId, varForm);
                        filter.getFilter().add(new AttributeModifier("size",
true, new Model<String>("7")));
                        return filter;
                    }
        }


regards,

Gabriel.

Thanks.

I got it working.  I created my own TextFilteredPropertyColumn and my own
TextFilter.

The constructor takes an input box size.

I have extended TextFilter with my own markup where I have set the size of
the input field.

HTH, Kai
