Bind a data on a Tab set component

Hello all people!
Sorry for my dirty English!
I've created a little intranet and would use a tab set component for a view of the data in mysql datasource!
But if I put in the tab set the Property Sheet component and bind it to dataProvider, the init() of the java file not run!
Can I use the propety sheet with tab set?
If the response is "YES"; Why this don't work?
Also I did use a page fragment for any tab?
thank's a lot!

I need more info. A property sheet is a container just like group or grid but its structured into layers: Property Sheet, then Property Sheet section, and then Property.
Property's are ment to contain one or more components. There is a bug that you cannot drag/drop a component right on a property, you have to use the outline window to get them there).
What exactly did you bind to in the property sheet component? Which part? What other fields are on the tabs?
Please add a MessageGroup component to the page and re-run to see if you get any errors that may help..
Thanks,
Lark

Arrange tab position on Tab set component

We could create many tab with name in Tab Set component,
let say i create tab set component with tab name :
"Sales", "Distribution", "Marketing"
could i move "Marketing" to the left and "Sales" to the center and "Distribution" to the right ?
just like this :
"Marketing", "Sales", "Distribution"
because i can't find how to arrange that on properties menu
Thanks

Hi,
Go to Object Browser and select the Tab set component. Expand the tree and select the tab(say Marketing) and use the arrow key in the bottom left corner of Object browser to move as per your requirement.
Thanks,
Amit

Tab set component assistance

hi, does anyone know how to dynamically change visible tabs depending on user input...
I have tried to use the individual tabs setVisible property to false yet it merely flickers and returns the original tab without actually seting anyting to visible or invisible...

By default, all new tabs are enabled, which means the user can select them. A tab can be disabled to prevent the user from selecting it.
    // Create a tabbed pane
    JTabbedPane pane = new JTabbedPane();
    // Add a tab
    pane.addTab("Tab Label", component);
    // Get index of the new tab
    int index = pane.getTabCount()-1;
    // Determine whether the tab is enabled
    boolean enabled = pane.isEnabledAt(index);
    // Disable the tab
    pane.setEnabledAt(index, false);

I Unable to bind a data provider to a TREE component

I know this should be easy, but I am trying to switch the following
myTree.dataProvider=event.result;
to
private var treeSource:XML;
treeSource = event.result;
myTree.dataProvider = treeSource
BUT, no matter what XML type I use I keep getting a compilation error 1118: Implicit coercion of a value with static type Object to a possibly unrelated type XML. Obviously I am missing something.

I have the solution.
var xmlList:XMLList = XML(event.result).node;
myXmlList =
new XMLListCollection(xmlList);mainTree.dataProvider =
new XMLListCollection(xmlList);

Threadinar10 - Page Separator, Page Fragment Box , Tab Set & Tab Components

Hi All,
This is the tenth in the Threadinar series. See the Components Threadinar Index at http://forum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=103424 for the complete list to date.
This Threadinar will discuss 4 components in the "Components Palette: Layout Section" section of the Creator Component Catalog.
The components we will focus on today are
"Page Separator", "Page Fragment Box" , "Tab Set" & "Tab" Components.
Let us begin our discussion with the "Page Separator" Component.
Page Separator Component
You can drag the Page Separator component from the Palette's Layout category to the Visual Designer to create a horizontal line that resizes to any page width selected by the user. This component is the visual equivalent of an HTML <hr> tag.
In the page bean, a Page Separator component is a PageSeparator object.
* Note: If you want to use an HTML <hr> tag, drop a Meta component on the page and set its tag property to hr.
[b]Page Fragment Box Component
This component enables you to include a page fragment in a page. A page fragment is a separate, reusable part of a page that can be included in any number of pages. For example, you might want to put a common a visual element like a header graphic in a page fragment and then include it in all the pages in an application.
When you drag the Page Fragment Box component from the Layout category of the Palette and drop it on a page, the Select Page Fragment dialog box prompts you for the name of the page fragment to be included. You can enter the name of an existing page fragment or create a new page fragment. If you create a new page fragment, the IDE gives the new fragment a .jspf file suffix and creates a node for it in the Projects window, as well as adding the page fragment to the Outline window.
* Note: A Page Fragment Box component simply includes a page fragment in a page. Deleting a Page Fragment Box component from a page does not delete the page fragment itself, even if you originally used the Select Page Fragment dialog box to create the page fragment.
After dropping a Page Fragment Box component on the page, if you click inside the component, you see the properties for the included fragment. If you click the border of the component, you see the properties for the enclosing <div> block. You can also use the Outline window to select the enclosing block, the page fragment, or the components in the page fragment. In the Outline window, the Page Fragment Box component is represented by a node named directive.include:fragment-file.jspf, where fragment-file is the name of the page fragment file.
If you double-click the page fragment, it opens as a page in the Visual Editor, enabling you to edit it like a regular page. The page fragment has an associated JavaBeans object, a page fragment bean, which you can edit by clicking the Java button at the top of the page fragment when it is open in the Visual Editor. As with a regular page, if you drop a component like a button in a fragment, double clicking adds an event handler in the page fragment bean, enabling you to reuse the code on any page to which you add the page fragment. A common scenario for reusing component code would be a Search Box fragment that has a search Label, a Text Field where the user enters the search string, some Inline Help, and search logic code in the page fragment bean.
* The tab order of the components in the page is unlikely to work properly unless you enclose the entire page fragment box in the Faces Verbatim component.
For more details see tutorial : "Using Page Fragments"
http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jscreator/learning/tutorials/2/pagefragments.html
[b]Tab Set Component
The Tab Set component in the Palette's Layout category is a container for a set of Tab components. Typical uses of a tab set are:
* To provide alternate sets of components on the same page and enable the user to navigate to them by clicking on tabs. The user sees only the components under the currently selected tab. For more information on adding components to tabs, see Tab Component.
* To navigate among a set of pages. If you use a tab set this way, you would usually have the tab set near the top of each page with the component's width set at 100%. You would use the Page Navigation editor to define each tab to display a page in the application, with the current page's tab set as the selected tab. In addition, you would need to delete the default Layout Panel component under each tab so the tab would display the page contents.
You can set Tab Set properties in the component's Properties window.
A Tab Set component contains Tab Components, and Tab components can contain other Tab components. You can see these components displayed as hierarchical nodes in the Outline window after you add a Tab Set to your page.
You can add a new tab to a tab set in two ways, by right-clicking the Tab Set component and choosing Add Tab or by dropping a new tab component on the Tab Set or on a Tab component.
You can drop a new tab component on a tab set in the Visual Designer to the right or left of existing tabs to create a new tab at that level. The tabs in a tab set can also be containers for other tabs. If you drop a Tab component on an existing tab, the new tab becomes a child of the tab on which you dropped it. The maximum number of levels for tabs is three.
The tab set component determines which tab is rendered as selected, storing the value in the selected property. By default, the selected property is set to the first tab created for the component. If you click a tab while designing your web page, that tab becomes the selected tab. You can tell during design time that a tab is selected because its color changes.
[b]Tab Component
A Tab is part of a Tab Set component. You can add a new tab to a tab set in two ways, by right-clicking the Tab Set component and choosing Add Tab or by dragging a new Tab component from the Layout category of the Palette and dropping it on the Tab Set or on another Tab component. You can also drag from the Palette and drop the tab on the tab set's nodes in the Outline window.
* If you drop the Tab component to the left or right of an existing tab, it is added to the same row of tabs.
* If you drop the Tab component on an existing tab, the dropped tab becomes a child tab of the tab on which you drop it unless the existing tab is a third level tab. You can have at most three levels of tabs in a tab set.
o Note: You cannot add a child tab to a tab that has components in its Layout Panel. When you drop a tab on an existing tab component that has an empty Layout Panel, the empty Layout Panel is deleted to make room for the dropped tab.
By default, a Tab component has a Layout Panel below it where you can drop components that will be displayed when the user selects the tab. The Layout Panel by default has its panelLayout property set to Grid Layout, meaning that components dropped on the panel are aligned at the location where they are dropped. You can change the layout behavior by setting the panelLayout property to Flow Layout, which aligns dropped components left to right in rows. For more information on Layout Panel properties, see Layout Panel Component Properties Window.
To select a tab in a tab set, either click the Tab component on the page or select the Tab component's node in the Outline window. To select the whole tab set, either click the border of the Tab Set component on the page or select the tab set's node in the Outline window. Alternatively, you can select a Tab component and either press Escape or right-click and choose Select Parent to select its parent component.
* Note: If you select a tab on a page in the Visual Designer, a side effect is that it becomes the selected tab. If this effect is not what you want, select the tab in the Outline window so you can set its properties.
You can drag tabs in the Outline window to change their location and level in the tab set.
Some typical uses of tabs:
* You can drop components on the Layout Panel component below a tab to enable a set of components to be displayed below each tab. When the user selects a tab, they see only the components that are associated with the tab, without having to change pages.
* You can use a tab set to navigate among a set of pages. Each tab component links to a page in your web application. You would use the Page Navigation editor to define each tab to display a page in the application, with the current page's tab set as the selected tab. If you want to use the tab set for page navigation, be sure to delete each tab component's Layout Panel.
You can also right-click the Tab component and choose one of the following options:
* Edit action Event Handler. Code the action event handler, the method that is called when the user clicks the tab. This method determines which page or resource to open based on specified conditions. The action method typically processes mouse clicks and returns a string indicating the name of a page navigation case (the page in your application to display next). The default name for the method is tab-id_action, where tab-id is the value of the tab's id property.
* Bind to Data. Dynamically set the text that appears on the tab. You can bind the component's text property to an object or a data provider, as described in the topic Bind to Data Dialog Box.
* Property Bindings. Opens a dialog box that enables you to bind properties of the component in addition to the text property to other objects or bean properties that update this component's properties automatically.

Thank you for your participation

The following blog has a mini tutorial on using a tab set in a page fragment for page navigation:
http://blogs.sun.com/divas/entry/tabbing_thru_the_tulips
A reader commented that the mini tutorial needed to be improved upon to show how to keep the tab state and navigation state in synch.
How would you do it? If you have a good example, maybe post it to this thread.
Also, there is no tab tutorial but it is on the priority list. What would you like a tab tutorial to show how to do?

Tab Set Label Colors - How do I change the selected tab label color?

No matter what color I tell it to use for the Labels - Selected color I get white. Is this a known bug in the system or am I not doing something correct. I have a tab set component and a label based menu selector component on my display. I've set up the labels and backgrounds for both components exactly the same but I can only get white for the selected tab set label.
Edited by: Maureen LaComb on Feb 19, 2009 5:38 PM

Hi, Maureen
You can set the color of Tab Set by using the Following Steps.
--> Select the Tab Set
--> From the the Properties Window
--> Select Appearance
--> There are Two Tabs "Text" and "Color"
--> From the Color Tab you can Select the Background Color
--> Tab BackGrounds Or Labels from here you can select the color.
But this setting will Apply to all the Tabs in a Tab Set, I think you can't set the Specific Setting for a single Tab in a Tab Set.
Please Reply if any Issue,
Kind Regards,

Tab set issue

i am working on dv since a month where we have a tab set component, initially i was able to add or remove a new tab.i have started working on a dv with three tabs. now i need to another tab.
when i try to add new tab am unable to see the new tab in unpreview mode where as it is visible in prievew mode. and when i try to select the new tab canvas and trying to add components to the new tab they are not getting added in the new tab but they are getting added in the existing tab.. and am unable to c those components in the new tab in unpreview and preview mode.can any one help me out with this issue asap.
thanks in advance.

Hai,
for some scenarios I am not finding records in any of the tab pages and in such situations I get this error.
Are you trying to Disble all the tab pages? Actually u can't disable / hide all the tab pages. Atleast 1 tab page should be enabled / visible.
Instead, If you are using a different block, then u can make the update allowed, insert allowed to false.
Regards,
Manu.

How to bind table data to datatable component and show all the table data??

I bind table to datatable component !
The datatable has four rows,
but the datatable alway show the first row data in its four rows,why??

do you mean at design time or at runtime?
at design time, the datatable uses generic fields to
show if data type is numeric, text, date, etc...
If this is at runtime,
- what driver are you using?
- how did you bind the data to the table?
- what is the resulting code in the Java backing file?
hth,

I am not able to bind the data permanently

HI
I created a property sheet and a modified menu Component. I am able to bind data from the excel sheet.
And it showing the data in the component as expected when I click preview.
The problem is :
After I have done binding if I click anywhere else in the canvas and then click back on the component the data I inserted in the property sheet is showing there but it is not reflected in the component (data that I have binded from excel sheet as well as the ones I have modified manually).
The component looks just like its just been dragged and dropped from the Add-On list ( like I have just added a new component and I haven't attached any data to it). At this point if I try to modify data in property sheet, then also there is no change.
It starts working again only if I delete the entire component, create it once again and then bind the data all over again.
PS: I can attach some snapshots if my question is not clear.

Display the panel container when user select the specific tab in a tab set

Hi SAP Experts,
I've faced some problems and i would like to seek some help from the experts.
Basically, my requirement is to display the component "panel container" which contains some data whenever a user select e.g. Tab "A" of my component Tab set. Similarly, it hides again when the user select Tab "B" and another panel container appear for it.
I am not sure if this is achievable in Xcelsius. Experts, please advise me.
Your help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks a lot!
Feel free to clear any doubts with me
Best regards,
htoh

actually, you can not do that, since you dont have a reference of the current selected tab

Tab Set Container

Dear Xcelsius experts:
do you know if there is a way to hide a component outside of tab set depending on what tab i chose?
i have a combo box that drives the data on tab 1 and tab 3 (when i chose element from combo box on tab 1, i would like it be chosen in the combo box on tab 3 appropriately and vice versa, but do nto seem to be able to do it). and i would like to have this combo box invisible when i chose Tab2.
any ideas will be highly appreciated
thank you

Hi anache1,
I had the same issue but I solve this but different approach like
I used three panels in the 3 tabs
so I use combo box in tab 1 and tab 3 but not in tab2
I achieved the next problem if selection made in Ist tab combo should effect 3rd tab combo box by
Go to-->properties of both combo boxes in tab 1 and tab 3 >behaviour>selected items
Type: Dynamic
Item: lable as per your choice(Like Destination Cell of combo box)
By this what ever you select in combo box of 1st tab will same thing will select by combo box of 3rd tab

Tab set index

Hello,
Is it possible to get the selected item for a tab set ?
Best Regards
Franck Lugand

Hi Franck,
I realise this has been marked as complete but there is a simple(ish) workaround you can use as follows:
Chose a cell to contain the index of the selected tab - you can make this text or a number whatever you require e.g. $A$1
Next reserve three side by side columns with enough rows for each tab item and set up with the formula = $A$1 in the first column, the text that you want to be returned based on the selected tab in the second column and the formula =IF($A$1=$B3,1,0) in the third column e.g.:
     A          B               C
3     =$A$1          Tab 1 Selected          =IF($A$1=$B3,1,0)
4     =$A$1          Tab 2 Selected          =IF($A$1=$B4,1,0)
5     =$A$1          Tab 3 Selected          =IF($A$1=$B5,1,0)
Next in each tab insert a toggle button. Resize the toggle button to the full size of the tab canvas - make sure that it is on top of all other components i.e. appears furthest down in the tree on the left. Set the transparency to 100%, disable displaying the labels and set toggle on Mouse Over. Bind the source data a follows:
Button on Tab 1 = $A$3:$B$3
Button on Tab 2 = $A$4:$B$4
Button on Tab 2 = $A$5:$B$5
Bind the target cell for all buttons to cell $A$1
Set the dynamic visibility as follows
Button on Tab 1 = Status: $C$3, Key: 1
Button on Tab 2 = Status: $C$4, Key: 1
Button on Tab 3 = Status: $C$5, Key: 1
That's it. Now simply look at cell $A$1 to see what tab is selected. This works by simply showing an invisible toggle button which disappears as soon as it is scrolled over whilst updating the cell $A$1 at the same time.
It should be noted that this method does have the limitation where if the user selects a tab but then the mouse never goes over the tab area you will not know which tab was selected.
Also - Phil I've answered the question re push buttons in [your other thread|Tab Set Container Hyperlink?;.

Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input parameter?

Hi,
I am a new user of Crystal Reports 2008.
I have created a report with charts in it. The input data comes from a csv text file.
Can I set the name of this text file as an input parameter?
as I need to generate 44 similar reports with different text filenames(and data)?
Thank you.
Regards

Brian,
Thanks much.
I did exactly what you said.
Just to see any change, I first gave a bad report file name just to see if I am accidentally pointing to a different file,
but I got an error saying report not found.
Then I renamed my original datafile name and generated a report and it still generated one without giving an error.
Then I also gave a junk name to the logoninfo and printed that name, the new name was assigned to logoninfo, but the code did not error out.
It ended up generating the report.
Now here is what I think is happening,
1) The save data in report option seems to be still on even though I have turned it off in 2 locations
a) file -> Report Options
b) file -> Options -> Reporting tab.
2) For some reason the logoninfo is getting ignored as well.
Since I did not see any answers yesterday I posted a link to this thread on the .Net forum
Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input param? C#
and Ludek Uher says that I am connecting to the text file via a DAO database engine and so need to use the same code for changing the text file as for changing an Access database.
But the link he gave me tells me to try the same thing that we have been trying..
Here is my plan,
1) I will first try and find out why my save data with report option is still on ( but it shows off in Crystal ).
2) why is LogonInfo getting ignored.
Meanwhile any suggestions from anyone are welcome.

User Exit for XD02 in Sales area data in Sales tab

Hi Sap Gurus,
I have a problem . I need help .
The requirement is
In XD01 transaction , In Sales area data, In Sales tab i need to add a Check box which i already have added.This check box refers to KNVV table-Zflag
In VA01 transaction , In menu goto -> header -> Sales , In Additional data B .
I have another Check box. This check box refers to Vbaktable-Zflag .
<b>I need the code and exact locations where to put this to get my issue resolved which is given below in Functional Description</b>.
Functional Description where you can understand better.
   Our custom logic will be initiated once the Sold-to Party (VBAK-KUNNR) is entered for any order type. When the sold-to party is entered the user exit program will check table KNVV for the custom field ZFLAG that corresponds to the Print Prices on Delivery Note flag (hereafter referred to as the Pricing Flag) and populate the same setting of the flag into the ZFLAG that will be on the Additional data B tab on a sales order at the header. The user can manually change VBAK-ZFLAG Pricing Flag setting to something different than what is populated for the customer master level.
If the user happens to change the sold-to party for any reason then the user exit program should take the following approach when populating the ZFLAG Pricing Flag in a sales order:
-     Recheck the ZFLAG Pricing Flag setting in the customer master for the sold-to party that the user has newly selected.
The user will still have the option to manually ZFLAG Pricing Flag on a sales order after the user exit program defaults it.
