Variable Screen not displaying correctly

Our BW install is BI 7.0, with BEx still in the BI 3.5.  We do not have any web-based reporting.  We have deployed the SAP 7.20 GUI with front-end patch 4.  One office is testing the installation with Win 7, Office 2010.  When executing a workbook from BEx Browser it takes a long time for Excel to initialize and then when the variable screen does appear there are missing descriptions.  A mouse over or a check of the variables will repaint that screen and populate the missing descriptions. 
Has anyone experienced this issue?  I have tried to recreate this issue, but I have not been successful.  The installation has been redone several times and testing is consistent. 
Thank you for your time.
Karen

Karen,
Thank you for your reply.  The installation of the GUI was on a PC that was completely clean.  Since this is in a test environment, the IT office had that luxury.  They did a fresh install of MS Office and then the SAP GUI.  We ran the installation check earlier today and are reviewing the results to determine why this particual install is not working. 
Thanks!
Karen

  • Outlook web login screen not displaying correctly on Exchange 2007 service pack install

    Hello everyone,
    I believe our exchange server installed a service pack 3 update and after rebooting the server, we noticed that the Outlook web access login screen is not displaying correctly.  The page looks white with some black X's (I think that's where the
    pictures/background images used to be).  We tried to restart the ISS service with no luck.  I would appreciate any help you guys can provide.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    I have seen this issue in another similar thread, that issue was solved by re-creating the OWA virtual directory.
    Please try the following steps to solve this issue.
    Open EMC, navigate to Server Configuration -> Client Access, under Outlook Web App tab, double-click owa (default web site) properties.
    Then check InternalURL, ExternalURL, Forms-Based Authentication settings ect
    Open EMS, use Get-OwaVirtualDirectory get the list of virtual directories and identify the directory which is giving the problem.
    Remove it with this command
    Remove-OwaVirtualDirectory “owa (Default Web Site)”
    Now create it again with the following command
    New-OwaVirtualDirectory -OwaVersion “Exchange2007″ -Name “owa (Default Web Site)”
    Then configure the “owa” virtual directory settings like InternalURL, ExternalURL, Forms-Based Authentications etc… & check the OWA by logging with some test users.
    Best Regards.

  • Screen not displayed correctly using InteractiveViewer

    I have created a report that prompts the User for Start and End dates.  When the Prompt dialogue box is displayed using interactiveViewer the images are not displayed correctly.
    Does anybody have a fix for this problem ??
    Example attached.
    Ron Smith

    My guess is that the toolbars don't show up when you view the reports either.
    There should be a virtual directory called 'crystalreportviewers' on your webserver. This is where you will find all the images supplied by the viewer.
    Right click on the image that is having problems and select properties.  This should give you location of the viewer.
    You should be able to trouble shoot this way be comparing the actual path with the real path of the missing images.
    Hopefully this will help.

  • Variable Screen not display in Web

    Hi all
           When i execute  the Query ZBP02_Q001 in Web, the Variable Input Screen  of the Query is not display first,but display the content of the ZBP02_Q001 directly in the Web. All of the Varibale is not mandatory;
    i am using BI 7.0;
          Anyone can give a help!
      Thanks in advance.

    Hi Cao,
    May be your infoobject are holding constants, which led to direct execution without the selection screen.
    Inorder to get the selection screen, select the infoobject and make its settings as optional and it will be displayed in your selection screen.
    So whenever you use optional for an infoobject, that specific infoobject alone will appear on the selection screen.

  • WAD Variable screen not displaying when using a customer exit variable

    Hello,
    I have a query which has 3 variables, one of which is of type customer exit and gets populated with a default value.
    When I run this query on the web from within BEX it works fine, however when I run it within any BI7 web template the variable screen does not pop up. Of course if I remove or change the offending customer exit variable the variable screen pops up.
    I have switched the display variable check-box to on, and it still doesn't work.
    Is this a 'feature' of BI7?
    Many thanks
    Sarah

    Fixed it myself by tweaking the URL....
    Added &VARIABLE_SCREEN=X to the end of the url and the variable screen now pops up. Its not an ideal solution but it works.
    Anyone have any better ideas?

  • Captivate 6 Slide Audio screen not displaying correctly

    Upon trying to rerecord a slides's audio today this screen opened up - I could record, but not save because the save button is not displaying.  I was able to record new audio on the same project on Friday.  I tried deleting and recodring new audio and the same screen came up.  I tried a different project - same thing happened.  I rebooted twice.  Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    If you check the address bar of your screenshot, you will see that you are in "C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Application Data\Adobe" folder
    Might be a possiblity that "Local Settings" folder is hidden, click on Tools -> Folder Options, under View tab, you have the option to "Show hidded files and folders"
    You will see Local Settings folder once you click on OK, then you can access C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe and rename "Captivate 6.0" folder.
    Hope this helps !!
    Thanks,

  • IPad air screen not displaying correctly

    My iPad Air screen has recently started displaying with a pink hue in two of the corners, showing as a medium sized oval in one corner and a small circle in the other. There are also some vertical pink streaks that are less marked. It's really noticeable when the screen is displaying a white background. The only recent changes I have made is downloading the new IOS 8 update. There has been no trauma or damage to the iPad. It is still covered under the 1 year limited warranty. is there any way to fix this in my own?! Thank you!

    Hello there katelynlc,
    It sounds like you have some graphical anomolies on your screen that have a pink hue. If it is a software issue it will be resolvable by either first resetting the iPad:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Or backing up and restoring your iPad as a new device:
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    If restoring as new does resolve it, restore your backup and verify it still works. 
    If not, then the iPad will need service:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,

  • Hierarchy variable description not displaying correctly

    Hi all,
    I'm using 0ORGUNIT hierarchy variable in several queries either based on the characteristic 0ORGUNIT, or based on the navigational attribute 0EMPLOYEE_0ORGUNIT.
    When I execute the query with 0EMPLOYEE_0ORGUNIT hierarchy variable the selection node description displays the Medium description, which is correct.
    Whe I execute the query with 0ORGUNIT hierarchy variable the selection node displays the Short description, which is incorrect, as I need it to display the Medium description.
    The settings for the object in both query properties are set to display Text Medium Length, and 0ORGUNIT infoobject Business Explorer tab dipslays text,  text type is medium Length and bex description is long text, but still when I try to select the node in the parameter selection before query execution the description differs in both cases, any idea why??
    Please advice, much appreciated.
    Thanks!
    M.

    Hi,
    I understand what you're saying, and unfortunately I can't attach any screenshots here but both queries use the Medium Description in the object properties and it's maintained in the text table /BI0/TORGUNIT as well (short and medium).
    However, the BEx Descpription is only in short and long text, there is nothing I can change or maintain about that.
    It looks like everything is as it should be, because for one query I can see the medium text properly, but not for the other, even though I'm using the exact same settings, apart from the fact that in one query I use 0ORGUNIT and in the other it's used as a navigational object 0EMPLOYEE_0ORGUNIT.
    It's a funny thing indeed....
    Thanks

  • Mac air screen not displaying correctly

    I have a Mac Air 13' screen. Recently I was using it and someone put a lemon head on the keyboard and slammed the screen down on it for no reason.
    The screen is now displaying a grey screen with a white vertical line down the middle. When I turn the computer off and then back on the screen is
    exactly the same. When I type I cannot see anything that I type. I have a two year warranty on my computer. I am just wanting to know if there is anytthing
    that I can do without sending it in. If there is not, who or what am I supposed to call to send in the computer to fix it. Also would Ribbit computers or another computer repair store, would they be able to fix my screen without me sending it in to Apple. Any information would be appreciative and very helpful! Thanks for reading!

  • Why does my passcode screen not display correctly, since ios7

    I STILL hate ios7 -- doesn't make me dizzy, but sure does hurt my eyes.  I find it MUCH hard to read the screens.  Here's an example of what I sure think is a BUG, with this new display design -- my passcode screen is SUPPOSED to look like the one on the left (and it occasionally/rarely does), but it USUALLY looks like the one on the right.  Keypresses are not in any way indicated -- you can't really tell what number you're hitting, and you can't see if you've accidentally hit it more than once, or how many you've entered.
    Am I the only one experiencing this?

    Okay, I figured out from other posts that, if I change from my background to an Apple-provided background, I don't have this problem.
    So the next question is -- WHAT is required of a custom background (due to the overload of whiteness/brightness in ios7, it's REALLY important to me to have my background be all black, to provide the contrast I need to see things) for it to really work, in ios7?  Why doesn't the all black background that I used, with no problem, in ios6, work anymore?

  • Mac Pro Screen not displaying correctly

    I have had a problem with my mac which is i have recently bought. The problem is that occasionally the screen will become fragmented and be all over the place and i am unable to see anything and i have to restart the laptop. This happens at least twice a day and can happen when i shut the lid of the mac or i am on it. Another problem that i have is that a message often pops up stating that my mac has to restart and i'm not really sure why. If anyone else has this problem and has sorted it out please let me know.

    Your warranty includes 90 days of phone support. Call AppleCare, or make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested. Back up all data before you go.

  • Screen not displaying correctly.

    I recently plugged my iPad in to charge.  About an hour later, I unplugged the iPad and went to use it.  When I turn the screen on there are small vertical lines dancing all over the screen.  I can barely make out my background behind these lines.  It looks like the touch screen is fine, however I cant see my desktop because of the lines.  Any ideas?

    Try reset iPad
    Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down together until you see the Apple Logo.
    Note: Data will not be affected.

  • IPad Screen Not Displaying Correctly

    I have been using my iPad today and it was working fine. I switched off temporarily and a few minutes ago I switched on and all I got was a screen full of jittering wavy grey lines. I could make out the time behind the lines but that was about all.I tied to reset it, but the red line appeared at the top of the screen. I slid that and the Ipad tried to boot with the circular thingy in the middle of the screen but it failed and all I have is a black screen now.
    It is an iPad 1 which I have had for a year or more. I am away from my base in London UK and cannot get to the Apple store.
    The battery is fully charged.
    Is there anything I can do or has it gone to the iPad heaven.
    Surely it should have lasted longer than this.
    Anniel34

    Further update to my original question. The iPad goes to the apps screen and if I touch an app, it goes there but the colour screen is ful of white/grey shimmering lines so nothing can be properly seen.
    Is this info. helpful?
    Thanks

  • Accented characters do not display correctly if there is a variable beside it

    Hello,
    We are experiencing a problem when we have text with accented characters an a variable beside it within the same text box.
    The problem is that the accented characters in the text do not display correctly in the preview or publised course to Flash9
    These characters display correctly in Captivate in edit mode.
    This is the process we have followed:
    Export to XML
    Translated
    Import XML
    Publish to Flash9
    Captivate version:  4
    OS: Windows Vista SP2
    We have tried to work with locale in Spanish with no luck, the only solution we have found is to put the text and the variable in different text boxes
    I have pasted an image of the preview and also of the text in Captivate edit mode.
    Any help will be very welcomed !
    Tess

    Hi there
    I agree with Lilybiri that you should definitely file a Bug Report.
    However, a thought occurs here. Have you tried placing the accented text in a User Defined variable?
    Assuming this is a workaround, my thought is that you could then just have a caption with two variables. The User Defined variable containing the accented text followed immediately by the system variable providing the Project Name.
    Cheers... Rick
