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 builder for JSPs?

Shared Component User Interface Templates not available for page use.

Hello.
I created a new User Interface Template using the wizard under shared components. All it's supposed to do is display a header image on the page. I can click on the title under User Interface Templates and it will display fine. If I try to use that template, it will not display as an option under Display Option use custom template LOV under the Main tab of page modifications. Shouldn't it be available here for selection? I couldn't find any access grant options under Shared Components that might have explained this problem.
Thanks.

Does anyone else have this problem? How did you fix it?

Dynamic action with interactive report region refresh

Hi!
I'm using APEX 4.02
I've got a page with 2 regions.
Region1 is a (input) form
Region2 is an interactive report on the same table as region 1
When entering values on the form I'm trying to dynmically lookup similar records in the table with the interactive report.
I've made a dynamic action on the change of the form fields which should refresh the interactive report region. I can see this one fires if I add a alert to debug if it fires.
The dynamic report is based on a query with bind variables pointing to the form fields, for example
where
field1 = :P2_FIELD1
This works great on the page load, so no dynamic action is fired but I can see the rows in the report region are the ones I am looking for.
But the refresh of the report region is not working, it is never refreshing and/or showing the correct data after a change of the form fields, so it looks like the dynamic action "refresh region" is not working on the interactive report.
Any ideas why this can go wrong ?
I would like to solve this using standard dynamic actions and preferrably not via PL/SQL or JS, shoudl be possible if I should believe the documentation... ;)
Cheers
Bas

Hi,
When you change value to item, I assume you do not set value to session state.
Use interactive report advanced attributes "Page Items to Submit" , set items session state before report is refreshed.

APEX_040100.WWV_FLOW_API Error while creating a Interactive Report Region

I am getting the following error while creating an Interactive report region on a page. (version - 4.1.0.00.32)
Error Unable to create Dynamic Query page.
ORA-04065: not executed, altered or dropped ORA-04065: not executed, altered or dropped stored procedure "APEX_040100.WWV_FLOW_API" ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called: "APEX_040100.WWV_FLOW_API"
DBA complied package but the error persists.
Does anyone know how to debug this
Thanks,
Priyanka

Hello ???,
We are experiencing this too at login in an application. The error is caused by violating the constraint WWV_FLOW_DATA_IDX1 on columns FLOW_INSTANCE, ITEM_ID in table WWV_FLOW_DATA. So for some reason the value of an item in session state is set multiple times.
When looking at the Access view (statement below) I see that there are multiple logins per second for a user (I have seen 12 times as maximum).
select login_name, application, access_date, count(*)
from WWV_FLOW_USER_ACCESS_LOG_V
group by login_name, application, access_date
having count(*) > 1
order by access_date descSince this count of logins varies from 1 to 12, it looks like it is not caused by the application itself, but I also don't have a clue what the root cause is.
Is there anyone else with more information on this issue?
We are on APEX 4.0 and Oracle 11g and the applications have all been built in this environment, so no upgrades have been performed.

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?

How apex generate LOV values for Interactive report

Scott,
For interactive report, does APEX full table/index scan to generate the LOV drop down list every time user click the column header? If I set max row count to 100, does LOV values only derived from the first 100 rows that apex hits?
If I enter SQL query in "list of value definition", will that sql get executed every time users click the column header or the result is cached?
For standard and interactive report, does APEX parse (soft/hard) the sql statement again when user do pagination?

Yes you have to Configure BI Publisher or other.

User Interface Template not displaying correctly

On some machines the user interface template is not displaying correctly (x is appearing instead of the images that make up the UI template). It does not seem to be a permissions related issue, as the same user can view the UI template on a different machine. It also doesn't seem to be a browser definitions issue as a different user on the same machine can view the UI template. Which leaves me at a loss for ideas...

Where are your images being used in the UI template stored? I like to place my images in directory:
<portalMidTier>/apache/apache/htdocs/img
Then from within the UI template I can relatively reference the images as /img/logo.gif

How to use own style sheet in user interface templates to change buttons, fields look

I want to use my own style sheet to change the appearance of buttons, form fields etc. while applying my own user interface template. I know I can create an unstructured UI template to change logos, body color etc. but how do I apply css to buttons, fields generated by the portal components form wizard ?
If this is not possible, how do I create my own form and get the same functionalities of a wizard generated form ?
Thanks.

Mrinal,
I have solved that problem fortunately.
What I did was to create my own unstructured user interface template. In the unstructured UI template, you can use style.
for example, in between the <head> tags, write <style> tages and create own classes for buttons, textboxes etc.
Then write a javascript to assign those classes to the buttons. Call the javascript function on OnLoad event in <BODY> tag.
That will do the job.
for example you have a style class called buttonclass for buttons.
<script langauge=javascript1.1>
function setstyle(form) {
for (var i=0; i<form.length; i++) {
if (form.elements.type == 'button') {
form.elements[i].className = "buttonclass";
</script>
<BODY onLoad = "setstyle(document.forms[0]);">
hope this helps.

When you run the program, the system displays the following basic list with a the page header defined in the program:
You can trigger the AT LINE-SELECTION event by double-clicking a line. The system sets the status TEST and deactivates the function code PICK. The status TEST contains function codes FC1 to FC5. These are assigned to pushbuttons in the application toolbar. The page header of the detail list depends on the status.
Here, double-clicking a line no longer triggers an event. However, there is now an application toolbar containing five user-defined pushbuttons. You can use these to trigger the AT USER-COMMAND event. The CASE statement contains a different reaction for each pushbutton.
For each interactive event, the system decreases the SY-LSIND system field by one, thus canceling out the automatic increase. All detail lists now have the same level as the basic list and thus overwrite it. While the detail list is being created, SY-LSIND still has the value 1.

How to use Templates in Interactive Report?

Hi,
I have migrated a report into interactive report, but the template used in earlier report are not applying into new report? Could you pls tell me how can i do that?
Thanks,
-Amit

Hi Amit
Interactive reports work differently than classic reports - the formatting is controlled by the AJAX controls - not by fixed templates.
While interactive reports have brought some wonderful new possibilities, there may well be times when you'll want to retain the more rigid, formatted look of a classic report.
You should choose what the purpose of the report is, and what facilities you want to offer your user - this will guide you to choose an interactive or classic report.
Both have their place in applications.
In summary, the short answer to your question - there is no direct equivalent of the report formatting template in interactive reports.
Hope this helps.

Language selection as part of User Interface Template

Hi all,
I'm looking for an alternative way of letting the user select language on portal pages. Instead of including the language selection portlet on all the pages, I wonder if I can implement language selection as links in the User Interface Template used by all the pages.
Has anyone done this?
Any ideas about how this could be done?
Thank you,

Using XSL-FO for Interactive Report PDF printout

I am using XSL-FO, Apache FOP and use FO Designer to produce a PDF from SQL Based Report (not IR). This is working fine.
How can use the same concept for Interactive Report. I can not see how to make IR to use XSL-FO and Apache FOP.
It looks that IR is only working for BI Publisher. Am I right?

Interactive Reports currently only support the built-in default XSL-FO layout, i.e. there are only limited customization options available. Report Queries (see Shared Components) and Classic Reports can either use the default XSL-FO Layout, or can be associated with RTF or XSL-FO based templates. We plan to extend printing support for Interactive Reports in a future version of Oracle Application Express to provide similar features as is currently available for Report Queries and Classic Reports.

Marc

Portlets using user interface templates

I was wondering if it is possible for customized HTML portlets and even Struts portlets to use user interface templates? We are wanting to create a template so that all of our portlets will have a consistent look and feel, even application portlets.
Thanks, Julie

I might have worded our question wrong. We are wanting the portlets we create to use portal's style for headings, tables, etc. How can you allow html portlets or struts portlet, any of our own deployed portlets to pick up the portal style sheet.
Thanks,
Julie

APEX Print Attributes for Interactive Reports versus Reports

The Print Attirbutes tab for Interactive Reports does not have the Enable Report Printing option that the same tab does for Reports. The Enable Reports option when set to Yes" puts a print link on the Reports page. Since, the option doesn't appear for under the Print Attributes tab for Interactive Reports, how can I get a print link appear on an Interactive Report page?

Hi,
Those links are visible to end user in action menu -> Download
