Adding action in Dropdown fields in visual composer iview

Hi,
I develop a application in Visual composer 7.0. I want to convert the input field in drop down for selecting the different values. I can change the same by selecting the particular input fields in design screen. But I not able to specify the values, Action for the drop down. Can someone explain how to add the Values/Action for functioning the drop down field in the visual composer iView?
Thanks,
Kundan

Hi Babu,
You want to populate the Drop-Down list dynamically or based on input field value you need to populate a Drop-Down list.

Hi,
you need to configure the element to be a drop down list instead of an input field:

Export to PDF option in Visual Composer iView

Hi Expert,
I am using NW 7.0 .Want to develop a Visual Composer iView based on RFC function module to fetch the data from backend and publish in portal.
In that iView I want to give the Export to PDF option for the corresponding SAP data.
I am referring following link for the same.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/47fe4fef-0d01-0010-6f87-ed8ecb479123?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
But in my case our Visual Composer and BI-JAVA server are different. In this document it is clearly mention that the given code (Formula) is applicable only for the case where both VC and BI-JAVA server are same.
Specify this formula:
"pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_a
dd_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.b
ex?QUERY=" & STORE@REPTNAME &
"&BI_COMMAND_1-
BI_COMMAND_TYPE=EXPORT&BI_COMMAND
1-EXPORTFORMAT=PDF&BI_COMMAND_1-
SHOW_EXPORT_DIALOG=X&BI_COMMAND_1-
null="
NOTE: This URL is for the Web
Analyzer PCD Location if Visual
Composer is on the same server as
BI-JAVA.
Can someone explain how to modify the above formula to give the export to PDF option in my iView where Visual Composer and BI-JAVA are different server?
Thanks & Regards,
Kundan

Hi,
Sorry for late replay. Yes i tried complete URL .But i am getting error..
I am using ECC 6.O.Both VC and BI-JAVA are in same landscape. I am calling the FM ZBAPI_FM_TEST_APPLICATION.

Showing Visual composer iviews within Web Page Composer (wpc)?

I am able to integrate KM iviews from the PCD into my web page composer pages, but when I try showing Flex 2 iviews generated by Visual Composer the flash runs on top of everything else on the page. The flash is simply put at page coordinates 0 x 0 whatever page region you try to put it in.
This is if iview isolation methold is set to embedded. If iview isolation method is set to URL then nothing is shown as the region is simply collapsed as if the content wasn't there.
I know there is a limitation to using Web Dynpro iviews with WPC pages, but the documentation says nothing about Visual Composer iviews.
Tips?
Henning Strand

Fixed by choosing fixed height for the iview (pcd config) and keeping isolation method set to URL.
This is as opposed to integrating KM iviews (document lists) where isolation method should be set to embedded and height kept to automatic.
Cheers
Henning

Calling Visual Composer iview into WDA view???

Hello all,
Can we call a visual composer iview into WDA view? if YES, can someone let me know how to do that.

Hi Govindu,
Thanks for the links.
1. We have created a new iView by the option Copy and Paste as Dela link in customer specific folder under PCD for the iView which is stored in standard PCD>Visual Composer>Models folder.
2. We can transport the content with export and import options but as per the SAP recommendation we should also need to transport the Localisation and Par files for the Model. But we are unable to find these. Could you please share your knowledge-------How to generate Localisation and Par files for a VC Model and collect these into a Portal transport.
Thanks again.

Visual composer iView in a BI web template

Hi all!
Is it possible to embedd an iView created with Visual composer to a web application created with BI web application designer? Can I use for example a hyperlink in such way that the content of the link is opened as default (user doesn't need to open the link to see the content of the visual composer iView)?
Greatful for your help! Points guaranteed!

Hi Rakesh,
Starting from SP15, new features are no longer a part of the service packs, but they are delivered as an Enhancement Pack (EhP). EhP1 is scheduled to be released for ramp up these days and it will have many very cool features. You can read about them here: [What's New in Visual Composer - Enhancement Package 1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0|What's New in Visual Composer - Enhancement Package 1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0]
The feature I talked about in my previous post is not listed there but it's there alright... I' going to post an article or a blog on how to use it in the coming days so stay tuned...

Default Value in Numeric Input Field in Visual Composer Application

Hi All,
I have developed a visual composer application which has a numeric input field for Hours.
It is mapped to a backend module.
We are using portal 7.31
The problem is that the deafult value of this input field is "0", but the rquirement is to display as "0.0"
The functionality has been tested with input values in decimals and works fine. The problem is when the screen first populates, that field should show "0.0" .
Please advise.
Thanks

Hi Soumya Chanda,
I don't know of an agreeable way around it. You could have a textual input, but then it doesn't have the numeric control behavior, plus you need to handle incorrect typing (alphanumeric notes).
Sorry!

Working with DropDown event in Visual Composer

Dear SDN's,
I am working with the dropdown list in Visaul composer.
I am having a scenario like,
I am getting a table of rows from a output of one RFC, in the output table i have a dropdown field whose value can be changed at runtime.I want to pass the value hcanged and the corresponding row as an input to the other RFc.
Current Approach:
I have used a select event from the output port of table to the input port of other RFC. so it is taking the values of that row by selecting the row itself but i want to trigger the RFC after change the value in the dropdown list.
How to do this.Pls suggest me the needful as early as possible,.
Your help will be appreciated.
Regards,
Sireesha.B

I think you need to create a button in the table control and make it a Submit event. Only then it will be triggering the RFC.

Visual Composer iView

I have created an iView in Visual composer. An input
form has several parameters, some of type Text and a
couple of type Date.
I have created a Callable Object for this iView. When
I examine the input context parameter, I see that a
structure has been created with an element for each of
the parameters created in Visual Composer. So that seems
fine. But I also notice that the structure is flagged
as a List. I want to uncheck this selection, but it is
disabled.
Is this by design, or is there a way to redefine the
structure in the callable object.
Thanks.

Hi Ankur,
Use this <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/44/429bbd709914bce10000000a155369/content.htm">link</a> to find pout how to modle VC-iViws for Guided Procedures.
Like it is made in the Example you have to define corresponding input and output parameter in the iViews.
Add your two iViews to a process and map your parameters.

Resetting fields in Visual Composer

Hi experts,
My requirement is, depending on the field value, I should change the color of the text. I could change the color of the text but i have to reset the field before displaying next value.
Ex:
In a form one field and a button is there.
1.If I enter the value as "Green" and press the button then it should display the text in Green color
2.If I enter the value as "Red" and press the button then it should display the text in Red color
The problem is, whenever I enter the value and press the button it shows the previous color. But if i put another button and reset the field it is working fine.
But, I should get the result in single button click(i.e. i should reset the field and change the color).
Valuable results will be awarded points.
Thanks in Advance

Import Visual Composer iView to portal

Hi experts,
My question is: how can I import the VC generated iView into the portal as a fix iView?
To give you an example: When I am in the portal I would like to access the VC generated iView by clicking on a fix navigation item, in order to be able to open this iView(Report) anytime I want.
I would appreciate any suggestions
Thanks!
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Follow the following steps:
1. When you are deploying from VC, click check button and noe down the name of the par file.
2. open your portal page using administrator credentials using the following link as example - http://<ip address>:50000/irj/portal
3. Click the tab Java Developer
4. Click the "PDK Component Starter&Viewer" link on the right-hand side frame.
5. Go to Overview tab.
6. Select your par, for example - com.autogen.guimachine.testbapi1.iView_GYI
7. Click Details link
8. Click Start link.
Check out the url in the browser, save it if you need that for future use.
Thanks in advance,
Deep.

Problems using Visual Composer with Web Dynpro runtime

I am currently trying to build a Visual Composer iView and we need to use the Web Dynpro runtime rather than Flash because it needs to work with a screen reader for users with sight problems. Which is a pity because Flash works fine. But when I use Web Dynpro runtime I'm getting the following problems:
a) When I define fields and pushbuttons in forms where Align Contents is set to Absolute, they do not appear at runtime in the positions in which I've placed them - all form elements are aligned vertically. The only other options are to align all fields vertically or align all fields horizontally. This lack of flexibility makes it rather difficult to create a good screen design; the only option seems to be to create a separate form for each set of differently aligned fields, which leads on to the next problem. .
b) When I define more than one form on a page, again at runtime the forms do not always appear in the positions in which I've placed them; the compiler seems to calculate how much space it needs to display the screen elements and then re-sizes and re-positions the forms accordingly, ignoring what I've told it to do.
c) Toolbar pushbuttons do not appear on forms (they do appear on tables). Irritating, but at least I can still create pushbuttons on the form itself.
There are other issues, but the main problems is that it appears that when I use VC with Web Dynpro I cannot trust the editor layout at all and the only way I can build something that looks decent is to fiddle about with field / form sizes and positions, checking every change on the output, until hopefully I get it looking ok. Having to do this will dramatically increase the time taken to develop VC applications. Has anyone else experienced these problems with VC and Web Dynpro? Has anyone managed to overcome them?

Thanks, but neither of these describes the problems I've been having. And they are misleading since they say that you can use VC with Web Dynpro only with Web Services ie not directly with BAPIs / RFCs, but using it with BAPIs / RFCs is one of the few things that works well in our system.
The most recent problem I've found is that if you make a form or table read-only it will stay read-only in Flash but the fields are editable in Web Dynpro. The individual field disable option does work for Web Dynpro, but it turns the fields from black to a vey pale and almost invisible grey (this doesn't happen in Flash). And you can't seem to change this.
It does seem to be a bit pathetic that input fields can't be made read only. I've tried expression boxes, which are read-only anyway, but they appear in as pale a grey as the disabled input fields. And although plain text fields can be added to tables, they are pretty useless since they can only hold a single value and so all the lines will contain the same value.
I guess I should resign myself to the fact that I am never going to be able to produce a decent screen using VC and Web Dynprp.
