It is possible to change the justification for a column/attribute in the list mode (left-aligned, centered, right-aligned)?

Right now Elog treats each colum of a list as centered,

thank you

You can do that chaning the CSS of the underlying theme. But you need some experience with CSS.

I need to set text-align:left but only for an attribute in the List mode, For example, say that FirstName column must be left justified in list view. What is the name of the cell content in the default elog.css?

The CSS class for the list display table "listframe". If you want the second column to be left-aligned, you put following into elog.css:

.listframe td:nth-child(2) {
   text-align:left;
}

that should do the trick. Replace the "2" with the column you would like to change.

Thank you Stefan: it worked!

Now I am wondering if there is some syntax to force this behaviour at the attribute level in elog.cfg, without the need to modify the css, I mean simply based on the attribute name (not its content). The syntax Style <attribute> <value> = <style> can modify the style but it applies to the whole line in the list, so all the cells in that line are affected. Also it apply *only if* the content of the cell equals <value>.

In other words, an overridden version for Style: Style <attribute> = <style> that will be applied *regardless* of the cell content _AND_ only to the cell specified in <attribute>

What do you think?

thx!
