Hi,
Follow this workflow within Discoverer Desktop 4;
Double Click on Title Bar > Bitmap (Tab) > Browse for the Bitmap image you want to use > Select ok.
To use a default Bitmap in your Title;
Select > Tools > Options > Table (Tab) > Default Title... > Follow steps above.

How to Change Date Format in the Title of the report.

Hi Everyone,
I want to change the Format of the Date in the title(Query run Date)taken by report through the variable "&Date" .
The Format available is DD-MON-YY
Desired Format is DD-MON-YYYY.
Please let me know the same as early as possible.

Hi NP,
What I try to do is to reformat the default &date inserted into the Title for Discovere Plus and Viewer. When you edit the Title for the report, you can select the date from the Insert dropdown list to display the date when the report was run. The Date (shown &Date in the Title) has a default format of DD-MON-YY. As I have other date parameters displyed in the Title that have the format of DD-MON-YYYY specified by the user, I want to have the &Data in the same format. Please advise me how to achieve this.
Thank yiou very much,
J.K.

Custom Logo in Plus 10.1.2 Worksheet Title

We can add a custom logo to a worksheet title using Discoverer Desktop.
However, this logo is NOT visible in Plus and there is no option to add a new logo to a workbook title.
Anyone know how we can add a custom logo to the workbook title in Plus???
Thanks

I believe you need to modify the UIX templates to add the logo. There are a few downsides to this, though. The logo will appear on the screen, but will not get printed. Modifications to the templates will show up on all reports, so if marketing wanted one logo, and sales wanted another, they would have to settle on one template.
One thing worth looking into would be BI Publisher. It will allow logos to be printed, and is now integrated with disco. Check this link for more info:

OracleAS Discoverer 10.1.2.0.2 does not load JInitiator

Hi
I'm using OracleAS Discoverer 10.1.2.0.2 with JInitiator. With some Internet Explorers Discoverer Plus opens a window with the following content.
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html dir="ltr" lang="en-US">
<head><title>OracleBI Discoverer</title><meta name="generator" content="Oracle UIX"><link rel="stylesheet" charset="UTF-8" type="text/css"

<META content="no-store"

but it shows a white page. I've checked if I had popup blockers installed and I couldn't find anything.
If I run forms it installs the plugin without problems.

This could be caused to the fact that the Application Server machine has not been fully named in file:
<IASHOME>/discoverer/config/configuration.xml
look for entries like:
<jvm name= ... plugin_setup=chaos
complete the machine name (in this case "chaos") with your domain (for example : .oracle.com)
<jvm name= ... plugin_setup=chaos.oracle.com
So we have a fully named machine.
To modify perform the following:
- Stop opmn processes
- edit the file configuration.xml
- and type the machine full name.
- restart opmn processes
- Try again to connect to discoverer plus.
And this time you should have either Sun JRE or Oracle JInitiator (depending on which one you have set in Application Server Configuration for Discoverer plugin).

How can I create a Title for the worksheet in Discoverer Plus

Dear members,
I am using discoverer 4i Plus to create workbooks. I am not finding an option to insert a title for the worksheet. In Discoverer Desktop we have a separate option to insert or edit a title. I am not sure how can we create titles in Plus.
Any suggestions.
Thanks
Sandeep

Hi,
I am not able to login to Discoverer Desktop Using my Applications username. My Desktop Version is 4.1.37. The same username works in Discoverer 4i Plus and i can create workbook there.
I went to Tools--->Options--->Connections and checked the option connect to both standard and application EUL's and while i am logging in i checked the small box which comes in the login screen. I do not know why this happening.
I am also able to login as the database user in Desktop but not as an application user.
I want to login into desktop as an application user and create a template workbook which has title and then assign that workbook to a particular responsibility since creating title cannot be done in Plus.
I am not sure what's going wrong here because the Desktop works for database user but not for an application user. Any comments are highly appreciated.
Thanks

How to add the USER who logged in discoverer desktop to the title

i want to add the user name on the title above the page body of discoverer desktop next to the &DATE and & TIME in title

Hi,
When adding to the title:
The default available on the Insert menu is the full page item list &PageItems.
However the undocumented way to add a single page item is to type &PageItemName which in this case will be the calculation item for the USER function.
For example:
Calculation TheUser defined as USER.
Place TheUser on pageitems area.
Add &TheUser to page title (does not require &PageItems to be present)

Discoverer Plus - How to include variable text in the Title

Hi,
I need to include a variable text in the report like the user information or another information i woul like to obtain from a query that is not the standars date,time,... oracle discoverer plus improves us.
I tried with calculations associates to a parameters, but is not possible.
I hope i explained correctly.
Thanks,

This can be done by creating a parameter, then a calculation, then a condition. Then under "Edit Header" or Page Setup, choose "Header" or "Footer"as needed and choose to insert the Parameter.
Step by step Example instruction:
1-Create a parameter as follows:
--Item = NONE
--Name = "Workbook run by" (This will appear in the heading or title when workbook run)
--Prompt = "Please enter UserID in all capital letters"
--Description and Default value left blank
2-Create a Calculation
--In New Calculation choose "Function" then choose the function "USER" from Database. (This is all that the calculation will need.)
--Name Calculation = i.e.: "DB_USERID"
3-Create a condition as follows:
--Name = Request_UserID
--Item = DB_USERID
Condition = IN
Value = Choose parameter: Workbook run by
-Double click on worksheet title, choose Insert, then choose Parameter (This can be done the same way under Page Setup for Header and Footer
-The calculation will create an extra column which I put at the top as a Page Item
-This will force the user to enter the UserID they are logged in to Discoverer with.
-This is case sensative. Therefore, since all Databe IDs are stored on the Database in all-caps, then the user will have to enter in all caps as well.
Thanks,
Sutirtha

Title in the Discoverer Viewer is improperly displayed

Hi,
The Title in the Discoverer Viewer is improperly displayed. The parameters that are applied are also being displayed in the title. Previously it was working fine but now the titles are displayed as &parameter_name. Can someone give a solution to this problem?
Thanks

Hi
That's right. The names of parameters and page items in your title or text area are not dynamic as they are in other parts of the tool. Therefore, whatever Discoverer sees after the ampersand character will first of all be looked for in parameters and page items. If there is a parameter or page item by that name then the current value for that item will be displayed in the title or page item. If there is nothing named that way then Discoverer treats the characters following the ampersand as a literal and will display them.
Thus, as mentioned by Russ, if you had a parameter called parameter_name and used &parameter_name in your title the current contents of that parameter will be displayed at runtime. But if you or one of your team has renamed that parameter then Discoverer will simply display the literal value: &parameter_name.
Best wishes
Michael

Discoverer Plus Title frame height is too small

The Discoverer Plus default title frame height is too small to display more than a couple of lines of the report titles without scrolling. Discoverer Viewer displays the entire title area. Is there any way to increase the default height of the title frame in Plus?
Thanks, Jim

There is a default hieght that the title frame occupies in Discoverer Plus. If I remember, the title frame by default will not use more than 15% of the available vertical space in the Plus window - again, not sure if this includes the browser chrome or not. You can drag and increase the size of this title frame such that it occupies more of the available screen real estate.
In Viewer, since the title is rendered as HTML - it will simply expand to show its entire contents.
thanks

Discoverer Plus 10g Title & Table Viewing Size

Is there a way to increase the screen resolution of the title and table area in Discoverer Plus 10g? The font size says 10pt, but on the screen it looks more like 4pt. I couldn't find any settings in Plus to change it. Thanks, Amy.

Cause
By default in Discoverer Plus 10.1.2 fonts are rendered smaller in Java
than in other Windows applications.
Already saved workbooks will not have any change in font and formats even if
your default fonts are changed unless these workbooks are explicitly opened and
modified for using new fonts. The cause for this behavior is that when
workbooks are saved, font information is also along with it. This is very lengthy approach if you have over 1,000 upgraded workbooks.
Solution
To implement the solution, for existing/upgraded workbooks please execute the following steps:
Set AdjustPlusFontSize = "True" in pref.txt file.
This setting will make Discoverer Plus to display the font size correctly. It specifies whether Discoverer Plus Relational adjusts the font size to correct a discrepancy in the Java virtual machine, resulting in a smaller font size than other Windows applications.
true = adjust font sizes
false = do not adjust font sizes
1.Navigate to <Discoverer Home>/discoverer/util directory.
2.Edit pref.txt file and modify the setting as
AdjustPlusFontSize = "true"
under [Application] section
3.Run the script applypreferences.sh

Discoverer Plus : Printing title issue

Hi,
Page title doesn't print all the time. Sometimes it's printed and sometimes it's not without changing anything in the report!

Are you talking about printing out of Discoverer Plus? I am thinking you are, because you did not mention Discoverer Viewer nor Discoverer Desktop versions. I have noticed the same thing happening myself. Have not bothered to report this to support, since most of the time the workbooks will be executed in Discoverer Viewer, where the printing seems to be okay. You may want to check your print setup to make sure you have specified to print the heading, and if you want on every page or just on the first page, just in case you have not considered this possibility. Hope this helps a bit.

Incorrect discoverer title in excel output

Hi,
Some of my users have reported to me that, when they output worksheets to Excel in Discoverer Plus 10.1.2.48.18, the content in the title area is incorrect. I am binding some parameters such as BEGIN_DATE and END_DATE in the title area. For example, the title area in Discoverer correctly shows 01-JAN-07 and 31-JAN-07 for the begin date and end date. However, when we open the same data output in Excel, the title area shows something like 01-MAR-07 and 31-MAR-07 for the begin date and end date.
Thanks.
Andy

Hi,
I believe, you have issue with the value of date and not date format.
I had experienced the same issue with Title.
The discoverer report shows the Date correctly, but after exporting ti Excel, it takes the previous value of Date.
When I edited the Title , saved, and exported again, it worked..!!
I dont see any technical reason here, but my guess is, the excel takes the previous values of the parameter from cookies.
Have a try..!!

Export Premiere title to bitmap format

Hello all,
I'm in the process of building an end credit roll and am surprised to see there's apparently no way to export the title to any bitmap format.
The roll is many times the screen height, so exporting and stitching several 1920x1080 frames is not practical. The reason I wish to export the title is for review by other people not on-site. It would be so much more convenient to hand around a PNG rather than render and transfer a lengthy video clip.
Have I missed something and such a feature does exist? I hope so.
Cheers

For full editing of a PrPro Title, in Photoshop, I have been filing Feature Requests for many years now, with no inclusion.
One CAN Export/Save a PrPro Title as a Template. That will be written as a PTRL, where directed. However, only Premiere can Open a PTRL. Photoshop cannot, and that has been my request.
Craig and Ann have given you some workarounds, that should work for what you need, but if PS could just Open a PRTL, one would have a simple solution.
Good luck,
Hunt

Discoverer 4i Titles

We have the early adopter 4i installed. So far, most of the things that were wrong with 3i seem to be fixed. However, I can not figure out how to Edit Title within 4i. Is this possbile?

Nancy,
I do not have an answer for you on editing
the title, but I have a question for you.
What version of the application are you running. I heard that discover 4i needs 9i
application server, we are going to upgrade to 8i database and 11i apps and with that we will only get 8iAS.Did you run into this situation.
TIA.
Sue
