Html report scrollbar in LV User Interface

Hi Everyone
I'm designing a LV User Interface with a HTML report view. Everything is working nicely except that while the report is being generated the report text becomes wider than the report view causing a horizontal scrollbar to appear which then shifts the report view to the far right hand side. This is annoying and we don't want the operator to constantly have to scroll the horizontal bar across every time.
How can I disable the Horizontal scrollbar or enable the text to just wrap around. The culprit in the HTML report is when the full path name to the sequence is displayed, if I could at least disable the filename from being written that ought to help. This ought to be done within the reportgen_HTML.seq but where?

Hi
To help you remove the report path from the report I will need to know what are your report settings.
Can you please post your "TestStandModelReportOptions.ini" usually found under <TestStand>\cfg folder.
To try to resolve the issue with the horizontal scroll bar I have a couple of questions:
1. What version of TestStand are you using
2. What version of IE is installed on your machine
3. Can you please post a sample report and a TestStand Sequence File which causes this issue
4. What is your OS?

Error in report builder wizard user interface

I am getting error 'REP-31954: Error in the Report Builder Chart Wizard user interface'.
The help subsystem states that I should make sure that the Chart Builder Wizard libraries are properly installed.
I am sure they are because all other wizards work fine, along with the Forms, Reports, etc.
I searched using Google and found two messages that indicate this is a bug in the program and not library installation related.
Does anyone know if this is indeed a bug that has not been resolved, or do I need to troubleshoot more on my end.
I re-linked Oracle graphics and checked the env variables, but nothing gets the Chart Wizard to work within Reports or Forms.
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi.
I am running developer 6i on my home machine (with Oracle 8i, v 8.1.7). I am at work at the moment, and I can't recall what the Reports version is. The same error occurs with Forms.
The filename that I downloaded is called 'd2k6irelease2.tar'.
I downloaded the version that is currently on Oracle OTN's download site, so I presume that is the latest version that should contain all patches, updates, etc.
Thank you for responding!

Hi Adrian,
Got the following when grepped through the web. You can give a try and see whether it works :
1) Open the report in the Builder. In the properties for the graphic image, change to the proper UNIX path. Also, ensure the .ogd file which is referenced is also placed in the proper UNIX directory, so that the new path is reflected accurately.
2) Ensure that your environment have the ORACLE_HOME set properly and then try re-linking with Graphics.
Thanks,

GRC 10 Print Version -Export to PDF in User Interface

Hi Experts ,
There is a functionality for getting pdf files generated for most of the reports in GRC 10 user interface elements .but in all the screens while generating the pdf via print version we are getting communication failure as follows :
Print Version Communication Failure : RFC Destination SALV_WD_EXPORT_PDF does not exist.
What could be the reason, export to MS excel worked fine . We are on NW 7.02 SP08 and GRC SP05.
Cheers ,
Dev. Parab

Dear Parab,
This is a general requirement.The reason why you are getting the communication failure error is because the print version for generating ABAP ALV is not set-up.
The flow is : The system (GRC here)uses the RFC connection SALV_WD_EXPORT_PDF to call a portal service >the portal service uses Adobe Document Services>the system uses RFC to return the PDF document to the WD ABAP ALV
and displays the document.
For your NW version and SP level , please implement SNOTE 1413938 - WD ABAP ALV -creating print version.
The Web Service Destination for Adobe Document Services (in SAP NetWeaver
Administrator) needs to be set-up as explained in note.
Also see IMG > SAP Netweaver >AS> Setup Printing for Web Dynpro ABAP ALV .

Set Report options on user interface launch

Is there a way to set the Report Options dynamically when the Operator Interface launches? Using CVI 8.5.
For example if user select HTML report then Sequence for Select a Reprot Generator for Producing the Report Body should be selected. Result Filtering to be set to All Results and Include Limits and Measurement checked.
CLD,CTD

Hello lvrat,
If you want this to happen each time the Operator Interface launches, you can place a sequence call in "FrontEndCallbacks.seq" to run "Configure Report Options" from the process model. This will essentially call "ModelSupport.seq" which runs modelsupport2.dll. This is exactly what happens when you click Configure->Report Options... from a TestStand Development System.
Note: FrontEndCallbacks.seq runs at the start of the Operator Interface and at the exit of the Operator Interface because it handles Login & Logout. You will need to prevent it from running this "Configure Report Options" sequence call at Logout by setting the Precondition to "!Parameters.logout". Also, If your Login step has a Post Action to "Goto step" -> "<EndGroup>", you must set the Post Action to "Goto Next Step".

User Interface Template for Interactive Report Region

In 3.2, where do we set the user interface template for Interactive Reports region?
No matter what out of the box theme I switch to, the Interactive Reports region shows the same. What and where do I change the template so that alternating rows use two different colors?

There is no template for Interactive Reports like for a "normal" report. You need to modify the CSS and supply your own for this to happen.
I believe most things are tagged with #apexir - firebug with Firebox is invaluable. This thread may help:

User Interface versus Report Visibility to Records

I have a user who can search for, find, and view the details for an Opportunity record via the user interface because the user, while not the owner, is a member of the Opportunity Team. However, when the same user runs a custom report based on Optys, the same record is not included in the results.
As the administrator, I can see the record in both places, so I can confirm that the cause of the record not showing up is not report design or report run-time filter parameters, etc.
The user in question has a role that is restricted by manager's visibility (can only see records where he or someone that reports to him is on the Opty Team).
I think that if the user can see a record in the user interface, he should also be able to see it in report results. Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions relative to allowing this user to see this record in a custom report without giving them the full visibility analytics privelege?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
In the user details you can set the type of visibility you would like to give for historic and realtime reporting. If you have it set to 'Manager Visibility', the user will lose his visibility in records where he is on the team. If you set the it to 'Team Visibility', then he will regain visibility of these records. I know it doesn't make sense and that if he see it as a manager he should be able to see as a team member, but unfortunately will only work this way.
On historic reports you canset the visibility to 'Full' and get both, but only for the historic.
Best of luck.

Printer Setup for HTML reports (Landscape)

I'm trying to print an HTML report in Landscape, the Report Orientation VI only works with Standard Reports, and I can't find anything that will let me modify the "Printer Setup"
Anyone done this?

Jeff,
To print an HTML report it first has to be rendered. To render HTML, you need a browser. For example, you can render HTML in either Internet Explorer or Firefox or Opera, and all three might render the same data slightly differently. To simplify the situation let's say that you're using IE. Once IE renders the HTML, you then have to get it to send the rendered output to the printer. So you can see why it isn't time or cost-effective for NI to try and necessarily support these functions. For the end user however, I'd guess that quite a few people have had this problem.
I have had to do a lot of digging around to get HTML reports to print right. My solution has been to use an ActiveX container with an IWebBrowser2 object (Internet Explorer). This will let you load and print HTML reports programatically however (glancing back over some old code) I don't see immediately how you can print a report in Landscape. With an ActiveX container however you can call the IE print preview function which will let you (the user) modify the report printing to Landscape. It's not a programmatic solution since you have to interact with the GUI but it works. Also, once you set the setting to Landscape, everything printed afterwards using your ActiveX container will also print in Landscape.
Something else which may not apply to you (but maybe--I'll at least mention it) is printing a landscape single image... that's usually why I needed to print landscape... to print out a full page screenshot of a graph or something. I do this in portrait mode by just attaching the control image but rotating it first and adding the HTML code to make it 100% of the vertical page.
Last but not least, if you are 100% set on using a programmatic implementation to print a landscaped report (no user interaction), the best thing to do would be to build on an ActiveX implementation so that your report is being loaded and printed from an embedded IWebBrowser2 object. With the IWebBrowser2 object there is an option for using a pre-defined print template. This option is NOT for the faint of heart and requires you basically to re-program the whole IE print-preview functionality. However, it's not impossible either, it just takes the time of learning basically how the IE print preview interface works and then adapting it to your application (in this case, landscaped printouts). This is also the ONLY way to change HTML report headers and footers. The print preview interface in IE is written entirely in javascript--you can get details on msdn (search for "print preview templates"). However, there isn't really enough info there to do things with any ease. So....
If you get to the point where you get an ActiveX container working and want to fool with the IE print preview javascript templates, let me know. I have extracted the entire template and associated images from the windows DLL it is stored in so I could adapt it and change the headers and footers for my reports and things of that nature.
Now that I mention it, I believe that is the only way also to actually set landscape or portrait--by programmatically changing the printing margins (so it prints 11x8.5 instead of vice versa).
Anyway, hope that helps...

User interface template substitution tags problem

Portal 9.0.2.0.3 (Upgraded from 9.0.2.2.14A)
Hi all,
I am designing an unstructured user interface for use with my portal reports.
I have located a help document called 'Unstructured user interface template substitution tags' from the standard portal help pages.
My problem is that only a few of these tags are actually being substituted for their correct values when I run my reports. For example the help document says the #PAGE.CUSTOMIZEPAGE# tag should be substituted with HTML text hyperlink to the customize page dialog. On my report this tag and the majority of others are substituted with a blank line.
Any ideas?

Same problem exists with the #TITLE# tag. However, SOMETIMES (I don't know how or why) the tag shows up. If I find out what the secret is, I'll let you know.
Anyone else have any input?

Master Detail Wizard and User Interface Defaults

Trying to create a master/detail form (on one page, no report).
1. Wizard is giving the option to use User Interface Defaults for the master table, but not for the detail (I don't want to for either) - is this the expected behaviour? If so, why the inconsistency? Will/can this be changed in the future?
2. Despite selecting NOT to use UI defaults, and entering new region titles, wizard is creating default region titles using the UI defaults. Is this a bug?
3. Supplementary: Is it possible to get rid of UI defaults?
HTML DB 1.6.0.00.87

I asked about this last month:
Master Detail Wizard and User Interface Defaults
with no response.
Anyone?

Is JSP Powerful for User Interfaces

Hi,
I am new with JSP and I need to reproduce a very heave user interfaces, I am not sure if it is possible to do it with JSP. Is there any place where I can read how is the best way to implement the user interfaces, generate heavy reports, etc?
Thank you in advance

JSP's can handle any user interface I can think of. If you talking about generating reports via print that can be a very time consuming task using html and styles that is if you want them to look professional (have correct print-break and margins).

Page break in html report

Hi all,
I am sending a report to external user e-mail id from SAP. The user is receiving the report in html format.
The user asks me they need a page break on the report after each customer data. I am wondering is it possible to have a page break in html report? If yes, how it is possible?

Hi,
I insist : it is not possible with HTML to insert Page breaks. BUT, Tammie is right! You can use CSS (Cascade Style Sheet) to insert page breaks thanks to few lines of code in your HTML page.
Follow this link to have a look at a very simple piece of code to illustrate this :
http://www.codeave.com/css/code.asp?u_log=4016
Here it the code if you don't have access to this URL :
<html>
<head>
<title>CodeAve.com/CSS - Page Break</title>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<center>
Page 1
<br style="page-break-before:always;">
Page 2
<br style="page-break-after:always;">
Page 3
<p>
Use print preview on your browser to see how<br>
this page would print out to three pages
</center>
</body>
</html>
Hope it helps.
Don't forget to close the post if solved (so that search in the forum is easier), and reward points (so that SDN members are happy !)

Unable to load the user interface-please reinstall the application-Audigy 2 zs Platinum

unable to load the user interface-please reinstall the application---this is the message I get when my pc starts------Someone messing around with my computer tried to delete creative media source player 3 when they saw I had both 3 and 5 in folder and i get this error message every time I start my pc. In addition to this I have lost my EAX and THX consoles and my speaker settings are gone so I cannot adjust my 5. system at all. After I delete that error message when I click on the creative icon is sys tray instead of opening up the creative media player I get the error message--unable to load needed componants. Please reinstall the application. this is media player 3[version 3.32.]. I dont know why during the auto?updates through the last couple of years I have media player 3 in sys tray and if I need version 5 it is in file with 3--start-all programs-creative--any way my pc is a Cyberpower AMD FX-53 using win xp pro-32 bit-- and of course its a OEM product so they tell me the only way to get it to work is use the restoration cd they gave me when I bought the pc and it will revert back to its original state as when purchased. I would lose all my games, music, pictures?ect and would have to start from scratch.[ OR of course back everything up on a portable hard dri've]?It seems like there should be an easier way --hell I might as well buy a new soundcard and it would make it easier. If anyone?has an answer for someone who is not a tech head so I can understand please help !!--thank you in advance for any assistance as it is greatly appreciated. Sorry this message is so long winded, just irritating to have spen so much for a pc and not have the original installation disc.-tried moving to another slot and the fixes I saw posted here with no luck---thank you folks again--Tom

All the issues you guys are talking about have been reported in beta stage of these new drivers. I would say none of them has been fixed yet. The only solution for now is to use previous drivers which work fine or use some modified drivers which fixes some issues, but not all. Your choice.

Open & print an existing HTML report

I want to open a previously created, saved & closed HTML report for printing. I don't see any thing in the Report Generation vi group for opening existing reports and wasn't sure how to go about it (if at all possible) using the standard file open options to get to a report. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hello,
To print and view an HTML report you have already saved to disk, just create a new report, and use the "Append User Formatted HTML to Report.vi" to append the entire HTML content of the report to a new report. Then use the "Print Report.vi" and "Open HTML Report in Browser.vi" to print and view it. This is the easiest way I can think of...here is a screenshot showing what I mean:
Hope this helps,
