Re: Fixed spacing and multicoloured text? - SOLVED
Message 1 in thread
After some experimenting with various codes I found the solution
is to embed the string in <pre> ...</pre> thus:
intval << "<pre>" << s.x() << s.y() << s.z();
intval.setFieldWidth(7);
for(int i=0; i < nNoProcesses; i++)
{
intval << " <font color=" << processcolour[i] <<"> ";
intval << SourceVal(source[i]) <<" </font>";
}
intval << "</pre>";
which gives fixed spacing & multicoloured text.
>The problem: create a string that has the following format
>(in printf style) "%4d %4d %4d %6d %6d... %6d" and fixed
>spacing. Also each of the %6d has a colour which shows
>which process it comes from.
