The Text Viewer provides a scroller for a large string dataset. Users can scroll up or down and left or right, as needed, to view the full content of the dataset.</p> <p> TextView shows the text of a one-dimension text dataset in rows of text areas. For multiple-dimension datasets, you can select one dimension to display using the “Open As” command from the TreeView. The following figure shows that two rows of 1-D text (dim[0] = 2) are displayed in separate text areas.</p> <center> <p><img src="images/dataset_text.gif" /> <br /><b>A dataset with string data</b></p></center> <p> You can modify the text content by typing new text in the text area. The modified text is chopped based on the maximum length of the string dataset. A string dataset of variable length is not supported.</p> <!-- BEGIN OF FOOTER INFO --> <hr noshade size=1 /> <p> <a href="index.html">[Index]</a> <a href="ug01introduction.html">[1]</a> <a href="ug02start.html">[2]</a> <a href="ug03objects.html">[3]</a> <a href="ug04treeview.html">[4]</a> <a href="ug05spreadsheet.html">[5]</a> <a href="ug06imageview.html">[6]</a> <a href="ug07textview.html">[7]</a> </p> <p> <!-- END OF FOOTER INFO --> <!-- <?php include ("../../../includes/footer.html"); ?> -->
