Graphical Layout Editor

Hi,
I am facing a problem with the Screen Painter Editor. When I am changing from the Module to the Layout, the editor is opening in the old fashion editor, so it is too difficult for me to design a screen, espacially when I have to design a StepLoop, etc. I am checking the settings (Utillities->Settings->ScreenPainter) and the Graphical Layout Editor is activated. I have try to deactivate and activate it again, but the result is the same - nothing.
Have anybody any idea? Thanks in advance.
George

Hi
THis is a BASIS Problem , the GUI is not installed Properly, Contact your BASIS Admin
While installing the GUI they need to select the GUI explicitly which they need to look into at
Hope this serve your purpose

SAPGUI 710 Graphical Layout Editor not available in LAN

Hi,
I recently installed sneakpreview NW04s for ABAP at home and the SAPGUI 710 software. The graphical layout editor doesn't work. I have checked all requirements such as, required dll and exe files. They are all available. The problem occurs only when I try to start the graphical editor from another pc in my LAN. If I start it on the application server where I have installed NW04s and the SAPGUI, it works fine. Only when I access to the application server from other pc in my home network, it fails to start the graphical editor. I've read that there must be a problem with firewall / port somewhere. I don't know where I can check whether this is the cause. I am using D-Link wireless for my home network.
Can anybody help me with this?
Thanks in advance,
Shahram

I tried SM59 and ran a connection test for EU_SCRP_WN32. It started gnetx.exe, the window appeared shortly. But, the connection failed with the following error message:
ERROR                timeout during allocate
LOCATION             SAP-Gateway on host OFFICE / sapgw00
DETAIL               no connect of TP gnetx.exe from host %%SAPGUI%%
COMPONENT            SAP-Gateway
COUNTER              5824
MODULE               gwr3cpic.c ;
It seems that my laptop cannot establish an RFC connection to the application server. the service file on my laptop has the right entry for the application server.
Any ideas?

Problem with Screen Painter - Graphical Layout Editor.

Hi Friends,
I have a strange problem with my Graphical Layout Editor. I first had the problem that the alphanumeric Editor gets displayed even the checkbox for Graphical Layout Editor is checked. Then I had gone through sdn forums and found that the eumfcdll.dll was missing.Thanks to sdn forums. When I copied that file into the path specified it worked fine. But the problem is my layout screen is not displayed fully. It is just displayed at the top of the window and only in that region I can drag and drop the elements. Remaining part of the window is uneditable.
what is the problem? Do I need to make any further settings?
Regards,
Raju.

try to re-install GUI patch .
Yeah , its like CNTLALTDEL(restart) , So half of the problems get resolved.

ABAP Dump - Graphical Layout Editor

Hi...I get an ABAP Dump when I try to start the Graphical Layout Editor (to modify a screen layout). Here are a few lines from the dump:
&INCLUDE INCL_INSTALLATION_ERROR
What happened?
The current program had to be terminated because of an error when installing the R/3 System. The program had already requested 789763632 bytes from the operating system with 'malloc' when the operating system reported after a further memory request that there was no more memory space available.
What can you do?
Make a note of the actions and input which caused the error.
To resolve the problem, contact your SAP system administrator.
You can use transaction ST22 (ABAP Dump Analysis) to view and administer termination messages, especially those beyond their normal deletion date.
Set the system profile parameters
- abap/heap_area_dia
- abap/heap_area_nondia to a maximum of 789763632. Then reduce the value by 10.000.000 to be on the safe side.
Then restart the SAP System.

Here's what I know so far:
- I can logon to SAP but can NOT start Graphical Layout Editor from my machine using my user account.
- Other people can logon to SAP but can NOT start Graphical Layout Editor from my machine using their user accounts.
- I can logon to SAP and start Graphical Layout Editor from a DIFFERENT machine using my own user account.
- Other people can logon to SAP and start Graphical Layout Editor from a DIFFERENT machine using their own account.
I have access to more than one SAP systems (different SAP instances) and I have tested the following:
- I can logon to a different SAP system/server (from this same machine) and start the Graphical Layout Editor without error.
- Other people can logon to a different SAP system/server (from this same machine) and start the Graphical Layout Editor without error.
The problem is not likely with low memory on my machine because I have 2 GB RAM whereas these other computers I've tested only have 512 MB or 1 GB memory. I don't see how the problem could be with the SAP server when other people are able to start the Graphical Layout Editor from their machines and even I can start it from their machines. The problem can't be with the SAPGUI files on my machine because I can start the Graphical Layout Editor using a different SAP system/server. I am completely stumped. Any ideas??

I have already done the following:
- Uninstall SAP GUI using the "Add Remove Programs" & reinstall it
- Uninstall SAP GUI using the option provided by SAPGUI setup & reinstall it
- Uninstall SAP GUI using the option provided by SAPGUI setup & rename the folder "C:\Program Files\SAP" then install it again.
- Upgrade from SAPGUI v6.40 to v7.10. I'm now using v7.10
Don't forget that I am able to start the Graphical Layout Editor for a different SAP server using this same SAPGUI from this same computer. I don't think the problem is with SAPGUI but I appreciate your response.

Graphical layout editor for screens

I am using SAP gui 6.40 and have installed patch level 23.
Still i cannot see the graphical layout editor in se51 and only alphanumeric editor is available (the flag for graphical layout editor in utilities> settings is checked).
any hints??
regards,
Priyank

Option 1:
In your computer Go to Start > Run> Type gneux.exe > Click OK>A popup message may come containing the message "EUMFCDLL.DLL is missing."
[Note: gnuex.exe is the responsible executable file which allows the graphical layout editor to run. So copy this particular .dll file from any other computer(in SAP system network) in which module pool is perfectly running. How to copy? Suppose in anyone's computer layout editor is running. Just Go to Start>Search results> search for the dll file EUMFCDLL.DLL. From the search result, from the specific path copy that .dll file and take it as backup on any sharable directory or any storage device.]
Copy that EUMFCDLL.DLL file and put it in your own computer's \SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui location.
Now again check.
Go to Start>Run>Type gneux.exe>Click on OK. This time any popup window containing error message won't come. But, graphical layout editor will open.
This is just for testing.
Now on SE80 open run layout editor. If it doesn't open properly for the first time, then open & close it for 2-3 times. It'll work.
Same problem occured in my computer. And I put the copy of that particular.dll file in my computer's SAPGUI, it worked.

Sekhar.k

Hi,
If you are not getting the screen with all the options after pressing the from layout for designing the screen and instead you are getting some damp screen. It can be a problem with the SAP GUI. You need to reinstall it in your system. Cannot help it. Contact your administrator.

Graphical Layout Editor not Available.

when i login to sE51 and execute the program ZAUTHSCR and press the layout button
I am gettign a message that Graphical Layout Editor not Available.
As a SAP Administrator pls let me knwo what has to be installed for this

Hi,
This seems a SAPGUI problem. Please check if all the development components of your SAPGUI are installed (you can do this by running the sapgui installation again and choosing the add-remove components option. From there you can check which components are installed). I think the graphical painter component has not been installed. Also apply the latest patch for your SAPGUI.
Do let us know if it works.

please help me regarding .
Thanx
Ajay pandey

I had same problem. During GUI install I didn't select "Graphical Layout editor: Screen painter" so the DLL were missing in my windows desktop system. Put the GUI CD back and run setup.exe, select option "add/remove Frontend components" from there select option "Development Tools->Graphical Screen Painter". This will install the files in the desktop. Then logon to SAP R/3 system go to user settings and turn on "graphical layout editor". Re-login to SAP R/3 and double click "call screen 100" to invoke graphical layout editor. Hope this helps.

Metadata. Check the files and strip it or save to a format that doesn't support it in teh first place. Perhaps the copy&paste messes up some stuff on that level such as DPI flags or stored printer data...

Runtime tab canvas does not look the same as designed in layout editor.

I created a tab canvas with the following physical properties:
Corner Style - Chamfered
Width Style - Variable
Active Style - Bold
The canvas looks nice in the layout editor, with the above properties. However, at runtime, the tab canvas seems to ignore the above properties and instead shows up with non-chamfered looking (whatever chamfered means) fixed-width rectangular tabs and the active tab page label is not in bold font. Is there a runtime setting that I'm missing here?
null

I am experiencing the exact same thing. The width of the tabs in the layout editor is varied depending on the length of the text. However, at run-time, the width of the tabs is fixed, causing the tabs to be wider than the window and a set of VCR buttons to appear in the upper right corner of the canvas. Personally, I think this is a Forms bug. Why would they intentionally let us set the width to variable at design-time only to force a fixed width at run-time?

Switching back to Book Layout Editor

As I'm arranging my pictures in my first Aperture book, there are a couple of photos that need a few simple adjustments. For the most part, this means lightening some of the darker, shadows, areas. I'm editing my book in "Split View" mode of course, within the Book Layout Editor mode. If I double-click on a picture thumbnail at the bottom and switch from the Library to Adjustments tab on the left-hand side I can make my simple changes. When I'm done, how do I "escape" the adjustments window? If I click back to the "Library" tab my book is already highlighted. If I double-click the book under the lists of projects in the Library tab, it edits the name of the book but I don't return to the Book Layout Editor mode. My single picture I just made an adjustment on remains on the screen. If I click the "Split View" icon in the toolbar, I get back to the split view of all my pictures in the book but there's still no Book Editor Mode... What am I missing? I can get back to the book by selecting another project (or book) and the re-selecting the book I was just working on from my list of "Projects & Albums", but this seems really klunky. Depending on which project I choose, this takes a moment as well. How do I return to my book after making an adjustment on a picture?
-Doug

Thanks for that. I thought I had clicked on every icon possible already. To get that icon back, though, I still have to switch from "single" image back to "split view" first. Is there a keyboard command for that besides cycling through the views?

N4S: Web Dynpro for ABAP layout editor not working

Have problem in Layout editor in Web Dynpro for ABAP
I have installed NW04S Testdrive on 64bit Linux and able to login.
SE80 is working alright.
Next I create a Web Dynpro Comp. / Intf. and create a component.
I double click on the View name "V_Default" . The Layout editor opens on the right side. Change into Edit Mode.
The "View Elements" panel on the left side of layout editor is missing. This is where we select the various elements like "Textview" etc.
Even the right click on the "ROOTUIELEMENTCONTAINER" to insert elements using context menu does not work.
In summary I am not able to add any element in WD4A Layout screen.
Is there any special plugin required to be installed?
How to solve this problem?

you cannot develope Webdynpro for ABAP using ECC5
This is available with netweaver 2004s (WAS7.0) for which ramp up is going on right now and the general availability is expected sometime around 1st quarter for 2006.
