Yes this is a good idea… I often have header labels that are much longer than what is needed for displaying the data in the column.

So something like a headerLabelWrap so that it the header can display on multiple rows.

Hi,

is this possible now?

@ram2010:

To have a long title to wrap in the cell on the title, change this style in the file themesui.jqgrid.css

.ui-jqgrid .ui-jqgrid-htable th div {white-space: pre-wrap; WORD-WRAP:BREAK-WORD; position:relative;}

The title may then take several lines, unless you add into the braces “height:38px;” to limit the height to 2 lines.

To resize a column, aim at the cell border on the first row.

@New Member:

This requirement is not just wrapping the text but creating a double row of cells. There is a problem of defining column spans…
