How to change alignment of String to right side

SanthoshSreshta — Fri, 10 Jul 2015 12:21:57 GMT

Hi splunkers,

After generating the table the columns having string datatype will automatically aligned to left side and measures to right side.
Can anyone help me in changing the default behavior of these.
Any tags needed for that?

Thanks,
santhosh.

If this is on a dashboard, simply use a .css with something like the following:

.results-table .wrapped-results th:nth-child(5), .results-table .wrapped-results td:nth-child(5) {
    text-align: right;
}

(Copied from here)

If you only want to apply this to one specific table, you can give that table an id and reference that id in the selection.

You might get away with re-defining some of the standard CSS classes. You could change 'numeric' and 'numeric highlighted' to be left-justified, but that probably will be hard to read for most people. Use your browser's style editor to find the class(es) to change to make strings be right-justified.
