Description katie.pelzer CLA 2010-07-28 10:44:24 EDT 
I have a table in a report where I noticed values in a column of one of the detail rows is partially cut off instead of wrapping to the next line. The values being cut off have underscore characters in a string. If the string has an underscore character in it and takes up more space than the width of the column, the string gets cut off and does not wrap to the next line until there is a space character.

If a word(without space inside) length exceeds the column width, it will be cut off, no matter it has underscore or not. 
It will wrap to the the next line until it meets the space character.

Hi Xiaoying Gu,
                I am not clear with the resolution here.Did u mean that the lengthy words shall always get chopped off? and will not wrap to the next line?

If you mean that the lengthy words shall get wrapped to next line then this is not happening? Can you please clarify?

Thanks,
Neelesh

In current BIRT behaviour, lengthy words will be cut off except DOC emitter.
Change the resolution to reopen since we should still think about support this.

Update the bug summary since the issue is not related to the underscore.
