Business Graphics and WebEnterprise

I have a two part question.
First, what is the best way to create business graphics such as line, bar,
and point graphs? OLE to Excel, OCX, some third party commercial graphics
library such as Brahma Software's Beacon?
Second, once I have a business graphic what is the best way to display these
graphics on a web page? A number of Forte field widgets such as ellipse,
polyline, and point do not have a corresponding HTML element and therefore
the Forte WebEnterprise WindowConverter class cannot convert these windows.
Is there a way to save Forte images as BMP/JPG images?
Thanks,

exactly!
many ways to do this
1.U can use WDCopyService(Source ,Target) here Source : return node of model data
Target : Your temporary value node which bound to BG.
Note : Each time when ever model data get updated(CRUD) u have to call this node.
2. Use Mapping type node and bind it to BG ui element exe : when we create any node It has 4 options one of them is Mapping select this and provide the model node
(mapping of node with model node is replica of the content there in model node, here u don't have to worry about updated content since its replica and get changed eveytime when model operations is performed)

Business Graphics and Data Tables

Hi All,
I have a SAPGUI application which uses the SAP Chart to display a pretty simple column chart with a data table underneath.
With the SAPGUI Chart Options this is set as so: [Chart Options |http://www.assetcentric.com.au/images/chart-options.png]
The result is a chart looking like so:
[Chart Example|http://www.assetcentric.com.au/images/chart-example.png]
Does anybody know whether this is possible to achieve with the IGS from WebDynpro?

Andrew

Hi,
If you are using webdynpro for ABAP then we cna use the Business Graphics UI element where we have differenet chart optins( bar, pie, lines etc) to have the graphs.
BG in Webdynpro -
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/ed/258841a79f1609e10000000a155106/content.htm
For WD4Java we need the separate IGS server to render the graphs, but in WD4A we dont need it. we can design webdynpro applicaitons in SE80 and can run the applciations in browser direclty.
we can use the data from BAPI by making a service call to that BAPI, and bind the tables to this BG UI element to display.

Business Graphics and Adobe Interactive Form

Hi Friends,
I generated charts in webdynpro using business graphics.
Now, I need put this charts into a Adobe Form using Interactive Form Component. Is that possible? How can I do this?
Thanks,
Cristian

Hi Cristian Teles,
YOu can use the Business graphics even in Adobe forms. In the Adobe Designer you can find the various graphical UI elements. Please go through them.
Structure of the Chart Designer
The Chart Designer is divided into three areas:
·        The graphics preview
The area on the left-hand side in which the business graphic is displayed. This area is used to display a preview of the Customizing settings. Changes to these settings are displayed immediately in the graphics preview, which lets you implement necessary changes in the business graphic display instantly.
·        Overview of graphical elements
The area in the upper-right side that contains the list of graphical elements. For a detailed description and list of all graphical elements, see SAP NetWeaver ® Application Platform (SAP Web Application Server) ® ABAP Technology ® UI Technology ® Frontend Services.
Each graphical element, in turn, has one or more properties. To change a property, select a chart element either from the chart window or by name in the chart element window. The properties of the chart element are then displayed, and you can edit and change the values of the properties.
·        The property list
The properties are listed in the area below the graphical elements. To change a property, select a graphical element either with the mouse in the graphics preview or from the overview of graphical elements. The properties of the graphical element are then displayed. You can change the values of these properties.

is it possible to bind a business graphics UI element in Java WebDynpro to a model node or does it have to be a value node?

Business Graphics API in WEBAS J2EE

Hi,
i have a business graphic integrated into my webdynpro application. I checked the api documentation for business graphics and found out, how to change the type of the business graphic and the number of dimensions programmatically.
On the API, i cannot find out any further possibilities of modifing the chart programmatically. I wonder about this, because the business graphic UI - element in NetWeaver Developer studio provides much more configuration possibilities on charts.
For example, i would like to use the averagre functions or adapt the number of labels on the chart axis. But all dynamically.
Has anyone experience, with such advanced business graphics features and nows if it is somehow possible to get to theses features by using the NetWeaver API?
Thank you very much in advance.

Christoph

As I understand, your user management is through database, so when a user is created in your application, the parameters pass through the Action Handler -> service class-> DAO. So a better way would be write an additional class with the user management implementation of BO with a constructor or a method which would take the required user creation parameters and call it in the service class just under the user creation method of your DAO.
As the user in your system passes some information from the front end, the same can be used to create user in BO.

How can i do different colors for the category in business graphics

Hi everybody,
i have a business graphics and i need different colors for the category. my business graphics is a gantt.
for example
category1
category2
category2
and so on.
Is there a solution for this? How can i do it?
Best regards,
Markus

Sorry.
In my opinion, this requirement can not be resolved.
Generally, we use Business Graphic with Category, we just follow:
DATA:lr_graph TYPE REF TO cl_wd_business_graphics.
lr_graph = cl_wd_business_graphics=>new_business_graphics(
    bind_series_source = 'NODE_DYN'
    chart_type = cl_wd_business_graphics=>e_chart_type-BARS
    height = 340
    width = 750
*     BIND_TOOLTIP = 'GRAPH.TT'
    id = 'GRAPH' ).
DATA: lr_bgr_cs TYPE REF TO cl_wd_category.
lr_bgr_cs = cl_wd_category=>new_category(
view = wd_this->mr_view
bind_description = 'NODE_DYN.CATEGORY').
lr_graph->set_category( lr_bgr_cs ).
If we go to SE24, to check the class "CL_WD_CATEGORY", we cannot find any method or attribute about how to manipulate the "Category Font Color"...
Maybe,any other expert can give you fantastic solution, hope. Best wishes.

Dynamic title in Business Graphics

Hi to all!
I'm working with a Business Graphics and I'd like a title in the final rendered graphic. The problem is that the text I want to show is not static, it's the name of the person who is using the application.
The question is: Can I bind the title of the graphic to a context attribute? or is it possible to pass parameters to the graphic?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
We have achieved this thru....
1. If you navigate to src folder of your project... src\<package structure>...
in that there will be a file <viewname>.wdview file. Where <viewname> referes to the name of the view in which business graphics UI element is used.
2. Open that file with notepad, and you can see the structure of BusinessGrpahics UI element specified in xml format. In that copy what ever between <BusinessGraphics.CustomizingXML>...</BusinessGraphics.CustomizingXML> including these tags also.
3. In the wdModifyView method of view name obtain the Business Graphics UI element and set the Direct Customizing to the above copied xml(as a string)
String customXML = "<BusinessGraphics.CustomizingXML>....</BusinessGraphics.CustomizingXML>";
IWDBusinessGraphics bg = (IWDBusinessGraphics)view.getElement("<business graphics UI element ID>");
bg.setDirectCustomizing(customXML);
4. In that xml string, the value under <Elements> .. <ChartElements> .. <Title> .. <caption> points to the title. you can replace that with your dynamic value.

Thanks
Sanket sethi

Hi,
First try to create a table with some values in it and bind it to the node.
When you create the BG there are thow things- Series and Category.
Category is the X Axis and Series is the Y-Axis.
Bind the respective properties to the node defined above.
Select the type of graph as Chart/Line type using the Chart editor.
When right cliecked on the BG you can see the Chart settings there you set the Chart type, X and Y axis.
Create a Business Graphic, under that create Category for X axis and Series fror Y-axis that dispaly values from a table.
Bind the Category to the context node->attribute and also the bindthe values to the respective Series and to the BG UI element.

Comparision between Fusion Charts & Business Graphics

hi,
I need to show data in a graphical layout.
I am not sure whether to use Business Graphics or Fusion Charts
Is there any help doc or link which can provide me with the details about these two, their pros & cons, their prerequisites such as system requirements, ease of usage(from the end user as well as the developer point of view),etc
I have used business graphics, and as a developer, it is sure easy to use.
However, i would like to know more about both of them.

I have a simple chart with stacked columns in a WD4A application.

Does anybody know how to do the same in a WebDynpro?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Parry,
thank you very much for your answer!
I cheked all examples in WDR_TEST_EVENTS but couldn't find any that fits.
The class <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/de/70/8fa0375b5dd003e10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm">cl_cu_data_sheet</a> does exactly what I need, but only with SAP GUI.
I still hope that it will be possible to do the same in a WebDynpro.

Business Graphics: Link between SeriesList and Categories

Hello everyone,
I have a Business Graphics with a Category Subelement and a SeriesList with a Value inserted.
The Series List is linked to a node, so my series are dinamically created during runtime. My problem is that the number of categories i have are allways different from the number of series, and categories is a discret set of values known at design time. How do i link each category to a set of values from the SeriesList ?
 Thank you in advance,

Business Graphics, GeoMap and BIApplicationFrame in ABAP WD

Hello everyone,
I just started working with ABAP WD and saw in the documentation that it was possible to integrate BI reports and graphics in a Web Dynpro application. I would like to know if there are any concrete examples available of ABAP WD apps integrating Business Graphics, GeoMap or BIApplicationFrame? Although the documentation provides some information about the different properties related to these UI elements, an example is always a good way to get a better understanding of the actual implementation.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Christian

Hi Christian,
you can find examples in the system in SE80. For GeoMap choose Web-Dynpro-Component /Intf WDR_TEST_EVENTS with the view GEO_MAP, for BusinessGraphics have a look at WDR_TEST_EVENTS again, this time all the views called BG_*. There's also an example in component WDR_TEST_UI_ELEMENTS.

Business Graphics, Gantt, and how to

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to use the UI Element Business Graphics in order to create a Gantt chart. I am having trouble trying to determine how to set up the context and mapping for this. I am basically trying to create a Gantt chart that is similar to a Team Calendar in that entries on the vertical axis could have more than one entry on the line. I have looked at the example WDA programs that specify a Gantt chart, but none of them are doing a Gantt chart similar to a team calendar.
I currently have my context as follows.
Series (Node)
     Points (Node of Series)
          Values (Node of Points)
               Start Time (Attribute of Values)
                End Time (Attribute of Values)
     Description (Attribute of Series - This contains entries on the vertical axis. In a Team Calendar...this would be name)
     Label (Attribute of Series)
Is this the proper context set up for a Gantt chart similar to a team calendar? If this is correct, then does someone also have recommendations on how to bind the attributes in the "Values" node since this is a nested node?
One last question, does anyone know of any WDA program (standard) that is doing a Gantt chart similar to this? It would be helpful to look at an example.
Thank you for your help.
Scott

Hi Lekha,
Yes, I have looked at both of those. Both of those examples utilize the Gantt UI element and not the Business Graphics UI element and Gantt chart as I mentioned. The Gantt UI element in those two examples seem to be a bit overkill for what I am trying to accomplish; however, I welome any feedback on utilizing the Gantt UI element. This problem I saw with that (other than it being too much for what I am trying to do) is how/what must be done to get your data formated properly in order to bind it to the Gantt UI Element.

Refresh the Business Graphics Data on click of next page event of a table

Hi Experts,
We are using Business Graphics UI element in Web dynpro Java to display a table data.
We are limiting the graphics data to 12 table entries at a time.
Now, I just want to know how can we refresh the Business Graphics data when the user clicks on the Next Page option at the bottom of the table.
This is applicable if we have more than 12 table entries and we've restricted the visible row count to 12.
So, for more than 12 entries; when the user selects the next page, I want the next set of data to be displayed in the Business Graphics UI element.
But I am not able to get the action for the Next Page event.
Please note that we are on Netweaver 7.01.
Kindly suggest as how can we achieve this functionality.
Kind Regards,
Anurag
