Enabling wrap text in TableView cells

Is there a command / option that we can use to enable word wrap in TableView cells. Right now, when a cell has data that is longer than its width, it just shows '...' at the end instead of the actual data when I publish the TableView window to an html file. It shows up correctly when I publish a .ppt but not in an html.

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thank you.

    You can select it from the client selection dropdown in HyperView,

     

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>Open_TableView.png

     

    Although I believe TableView was only introduced in HyperWorks 14.0

    I found it, @jcd

    it use tk treectrl widget

    to enable wrapping for TableView, enter command

     foreach widget [winfo children .] {      if {[string match .tblview_* $widget]} {           catch {$widget.frame.ctl.table element configure etext -wrap word}      } }
