SAP Portal Custom Theme change UI Look & Feel of ESS screens - Possible ?

Hi,
I have a requirement where the look and feel of the UI controls of the ESS/MSS applications have to be different - Jazzy
I know XSS homepage framework is for the customisation of Areas, Sub Areas. What I am more interested is only the look and feel UI of ESS/MSS applications.
If I change the standard theme of portal using Theme Editor and create a new custom theme with different back ground colors, fonts, sizes for all the UI controls,.Will the customised Theme apply on the standard ESS / MSS screens ? Also my doubt is we are using EHP3 and I am not sure how many are Webdynpro java based or webdynpro Abap based.
Will the theme apply to both WDA and WDJ application UI controls of ESS/MSS?
Any inputs in this regard will be of great help. thanks in advance.

Sreeram

Hi Sreeram,
Yes, you should be able to apply the portal theme to both WDA and WDJ applications. This [posting|Re: webdynpro for abap using portal theme nw2004s, sp12; might help you.

SAP Portal custom themes not appearing in 'Personalize' link

Hi.
I am trying to make customised themes available to my users through the 'Personalize' link in the masthead. I have successfully customised the Personalize function so it now includes only the ability to choose themes - all other forms of personalisation have been stripped out. I have also successfully created a customised theme.
My problem is that the custom theme I have created does not appear in the values list within Personalize -> Portal Theme. Only SAP standard themes are appearing in the list. I have managed to assign the theme to users through a display rule, so I know the theme works OK. I have tried exporting and re-importing the theme, this did not help.
Does anybody know how I can make my custom theme available through the Personalize -> Portal Theme list?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Simon.

Hi,
Only the themes present in the desktop in which the users fall will be available in the personalize link.
In detail
System admin->portal display->Desktop and display rule ->open your desktop (in which the user falls)
Add all your custom theme to the desktop.
By now the custom theme will be present in personalize->custom theme.

Setting Themes for Java Look & Feel

Hi All,
I am tring to set my customized theme to Java Look & Feel. I am able to set the theme using the following code:
ASC_WhiteSatin theme = new ASC_WhiteSatin();
MetalLookAndFeel.setCurrentTheme(theme);
The above code works fine and changes the color schemes correctly.
If I set another theme after setting the previous one i.e.let say abc Theme, dialogs and frames are updated properly where as JFileChooser start showing combination of both. Why?
I am also updating the Look & Feel and calling
SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(this);
SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(this.getParent());
((JFrame)this.getParent()).pack();
to refresh the themes for my frame. I am using JDK 1.4.1.
Thanks in advance

try the beta-version of 1.4.2

Changing shell, look & feel dynamically in desktop backing file

(I apologize if this post is showing up twice - I tried posting with
google groups but it doesn't appear at forums.bea.com, so I wanted to
post again using xnews to make sure it shows up.)
I have a backing file that I am using with my desktop and I need to be
able to change the shell and look & feel dynamically, based on the page
that is currently active. I am doing the following in the preRender()
method:
String newLAF = "myLookAndFeel";
String newShell = "myShell";
// here is where I would determine the appropriate LAF and shell based on the current page
customizationContext = new CustomizationContext(Locale.getDefault(), request);
customizationContext.setVisitorMode(true);
DesktopView desktopView =
PortalBeanManager.getPortalCustomizationManager().getDesktopView(customizationContext, webAppName, new PortalPath(portalPath), new DesktopPath(desktopPath));
DesktopInstanceId dii = desktopView.getDesktopInstanceId();
DesktopInstance di = PortalBeanManager.getPortalCustomizationManager().getDesktopInstance(customizationContext, dii);
LookAndFeelDefinitionId lookAndFeelId = null;
for(int i = 0, n = lookAndFeelDefinitions.length; i < n; i++) {
if(newLAF.equals(lookAndFeelDefinitions.getDefinitionLabel())) {
lookAndFeelId = lookAndFeelDefinitions[i].getLookAndFeelDefinitionId();
break;
di.setLookAndFeelDefinitionId(lookAndFeelId);
ShellDefinitionManager shellManager = PortalBeanManager.getShellDefinitionManager();
ShellDefinitionId shellId = null;
ShellDefinition[] shellDefinitions = getShellDefinitions(webAppName, request.getLocale(), request);
for(int i = 0, n = shellDefinitions.length; i < n; i++) {
String shellName = shellManager.getShellView(customizationContext, shellDefinitions[i].getShellDefinitionId()).getMarkupView().getMarkupDefinition().getName();
if(newShell.equals(shellName)) {
shellId = shellDefinitions[i].getShellDefinitionId();
break;
di.setShellDefinitionId(shellId);
PortalBeanManager.getPortalCustomizationManager().updateDesktopInstance(customizationContext, di);
This works just fine, but I once the portal renders itself in my
browser, I usually have to refresh the page before the changes to the
shell and look & feel are visible. I would like to do this in the
init() method of the backing file but I do not know how to determine
the current active page from within init.
I would appreciate any help you all could give me in finding a solution
so I do not have to refresh the page in order to see the shell and look
& feel changes. Thanks in advance!
Andy

We essentially have 2 "portals" running inside 1 .portal file. We'd
like to be able to use single sign on and entitlements to allow/restrict
access to various parts of the 2 portals (where certain books are
consider part of portal "A" and others part of portal "B"). If you are
logged in as a super-user, you will be able to access everything. If
you are logged in as user type "A" you can only access portal "A," and
similarly for user type "B" and portal "B."
Portals A and B have each have a distinct header, footer (i.e. shell),
and look and feel (skeleton and skin). If a super-user is looking at
portal A, the portal should have portal A's header, footer, and look and
feel, and similarly for portal B.
How would you recommend we accomplish this? Would it make more sense
(and is it possible) to have the header and footer jsps determine what
content to render based on the current book or page, and then use the
code you suggested below to change the look and feel dynamically?
Thanks,
Andy

in order to pick up the changes for that request you will need to do a redirect back to the server (our login examples shwo you how to do this). this is because the control tree has already been retrieved from the database (so you need to go back and get a new version).
I quick note: If you plan on doing this a lot this is quite a heavy process. if you just need to change the lookAndFeel on the fly you can look at the following ( i t think this is in the tutorial portal)
A) Modify the shell to include a jsp and backing file
<netuix:header>
<netuix:jspContent backingFile="com.acme.DynamicLookAndFeelHeaderBacking" contentUri="/portlets/lookAndFeel/dynamicLookAndFeelHeader/dynamicLookAndFeelHeader.jsp"/>
</netuix:header>
B) backing file looks like
public void init(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
// Get the session from the request
HttpSession session = request.getSession();
// Get the LookAndFeel object from the PrimaryTheme in the request
LookAndFeel lookAndFeel = LookAndFeel.getLookAndFeel(request);
if (request.getParameter("defaultButton") != null)
session.setAttribute("skin", "default");
if (request.getParameter("textButton") != null)
session.setAttribute("skin", "text");
if (request.getParameter("classicButton") != null)
session.setAttribute("skin", "classic");
String selectedSkin = (String) session.getAttribute("skin");
if (selectedSkin != null)
lookAndFeel.setSkin(selectedSkin);
lookAndFeel.setSkeleton(selectedSkin);
lookAndFeel.reinit();

Custom Theme: change resolution graphics problems

Hi
What can i do to make custom themes in a way that i can change the resolution anytime later by using that pulldown menu (e.g. 1024x768 to 800x600) without having problems with the graphics. I can make single themes in the right resolution but how do i tell keynote to use the right one when i want to change resolution? Or must i use only vector graphics?
The problem by change the resolution of my custom themes is that all the graphics move somewhere and everything looks confused. When i go back to the right resolution graphics still stay confused and scaled to small or to big too????

the way to do this properly is to make a theme file for each resolution, and then instead of just using the inspector to change the size, use the theme selector to choose your same theme in the new size. This will reapply the theme properly.

How to change the look of the ESS Overview page

Hi,
We are implementing ESS/MSS and would like to change the look (font size and color, background color, ...) of only the Overview page (Area Group Page). From what I understand when a theme (css) is used it is applied to an entire Portal Desktop, not to a single page. And since the Overview page is a Web Dynpro application (part of the Floor Plan Manager), it doesn't seem possible to change the look besides using themes.
Of course we would like to keep the possibility to configure this page using IMG so rebuilding it from scratch is not really an option.
Any idea how this could be done?
Thanks,
Martin

Thanks Srikanth,
As far as I know it is not possible to change the font size or color of the overview page using IMG.
But I found a way of applying a theme to a single Web Dynpro application running inside the portal, like the Overview page. You need to specify the theme in the iView property editor using the Application parameter sap-cssurl. The feature is there and more or less documented, the only problem I am still not able to make it work, the portal theme is always used. It is also possible to change the theme of <i>all</i> the Web Dynpro applications running on the server (by changing WD a property in the J2EE Visual Admin, see this <a href="https://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=367022">post</a> for example) but this is not what I want to do.

SAP Portal Migration from 6.0 to 7.0 - ESS/MSS

Hi,
We are planning to upgrade Portal from 6.0 to 7.0 along with ECC to 6.0. We have many customization done in ESS/MSS and we want to keep the same customization in the newer version of portal. Can you please let us know how to achieve this ? I know that we need to be in synch with ECC version for ESS/MSS, so we are upgrading BP for ESS/MSS as well.
Thanks,
Vinit

When you say customization, are you talking about Webdynpro code changes made to the standard ESS/MSS applications ?
Unfortunately, the source code changes cannot be migrated with the click of a button when you upgrade.
The process is to manually look and compare the changes made by you in the old track (assuming you used NWDI) and the changes delivered by SAP in the new track using the Metadata comparison tool in NWDS.
If you want more explanation - refer to the attachment document (NWDI Cookbook for XSS) of SAP Note 872892.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/c4/2910411db1d349e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
As Sunny has suggested above, you might be able to use some of the existing backend configuration/customization as is and the rest would need some tweaks.
Thanks,
Shanti

Changes in Look & Feel in iSupport

Hi
Could you please provide any examples and guide on customising the iSupport page which includes text, font (look and feel) .
Thanks

Consider using CardLayout (designed for this task) as the layout manger for your inner panel. You will then not need to use repaint(), validate() or revalidate().
