Output a shaded box in SAPScript with Dot Matrix Printer

Hi guys,
Is there a way to print a shaded box in Sapscript using Dot matrix printer?
BOX XPOS '4'CM YPOS '2.8'CM WIDTH '2'CM HEIGHT '0.4'CM FRAME 10 TW INTENSITY 100
I tried the code as above but it wouldn't work, and doing a search on this forum tells me box command wouldn't work on dot matrix printer. So is there any alternative to do this?

Hi
if it is possible try to print the same in another printer and confirm the problem
no doubt certain printers may create such problems while printing the output
so to confirm the problem try with other printer.

hi,
If your requirement is to display date with box,first create a Box by using following syntax
* &sy-datum&
/: BOX XPOS '0' CH YPOS '3.65' LN WIDTH '77.50' CH HEIGHT '4.5' LN FRAME '10' tw
then adjust the box size according to your requirement by changing xpos,ypos,width and height

Hi,
It is very easy to create any BOX in script, Below is the command for same,
Create Boxes in the SAPscript using the BOX command specifying
the x,y co-ordinates and the width and the height
/: BOX XPOS '0' CM YPOS '0.5' CM WIDTH '9.2' CM HEIGHT '3.5' CM FRAME 8 TW

I am using the BOX control command in SapScript.
Is it possible to assign the values of Xpos and Ypos
dynamicalliy.
In BOX XPOS 16 CH WIDTH 0 MM HEIGHT 18 MM FRAME 10 TW,
i want to assign the values at runtime, instead of
xpos 16 , something like Xpos Var, where var contain the value of xposition.
or any other method to print dynamic box in sap script

Hi
yes it is possible
see this
SAPScripts

Boxes, Lines, Shading: BOX, POSITION, SIZE
Use the BOX, POSITION, and SIZE commands for drawing boxes, lines, and shading to print particular windows within a form or passages of text within a window in a frame or with shading.
The SAP printer drivers that are based on page-oriented printers (the HP LaserJet driver HPL2, the Postscript driver POST, the Kyocera Prescribe driver PRES) employ these commands when printing. Line printers and page-oriented printers not supported in the standard ignore these commands. You can view the resulting printer output in the SAPscript print preview.
Syntax:
/: BOX [XPOS] [YPOS] [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [FRAME] [INTENSITY]
/: POSITION [XORIGIN] [YORIGIN] [WINDOW] [PAGE]
/: SIZE [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [WINDOW] [PAGE]
BOX Command
Syntax
/: BOX [XPOS] [YPOS] [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [FRAME] [INTENSITY]
Effect: draws a box of the specified size at the specified position.
Parameters: For each of XPOS, YPOS, WIDTH, HEIGHT, and FRAME, you must specify both a measurement and a unit of measurement. Specify the INTENSITY parameter as a percentage between 0 and 100.
XPOS, YPOS
Upper left corner of the box, relative to the values of the POSITION command.
Default: Values specified in the POSITION command.
The following calculation is performed internally to determine the absolute output position of a box on the page:
X(abs) = XORIGIN + XPOS
Y(abs) = YORIGIN + YPOS
WIDTH
Width of the box. Default: WIDTH value of the SIZE command.
HEIGHT
Height of the box. Default: HEIGHT value of the SIZE command.
FRAME
Thickness of frame.
Default: 0 (no frame).
INTENSITY
Grayscale of box contents as %.
Default: 100 (full black)
Measurements: You must specify decimal numbers as literal values (like ABAP numeric constants) by enclosing them in inverted commas. Use the period as the decimal point character. See also the examples listed below.
Units of measurement: The following units of measurement may be used:
TW (twip)
PT (point)
IN (inch)
MM (millimeter)
CM (centimeter)
LN (line)
CH (character).
The following conversion factors apply:
1 TW = 1/20 PT
1 PT = 1/72 IN
1 IN = 2.54 CM
1 CM = 10 MM
1 CH = height of a character relative to the CPI specification in the form header
1 LN = height of a line relative to the LPI specification in the form header
/: BOX FRAME 10 TW
Draws a frame around the current window with a frame thickness of 10 TW (= 0.5 PT).
/: BOX INTENSITY 10
Fills the window background with shading having a gray scale of 10 %.
/: BOX HEIGHT 0 TW FRAME 10 TW
Draws a horizontal line across the complete top edge of the window.
/: BOX WIDTH 0 TW FRAME 10 TW
Draws a vertical line along the complete height of the left hand edge of the window.
/: BOX WIDTH '17.5' CM HEIGHT 1 CM FRAME 10 TW INTENSITY 15
/: BOX WIDTH '17.5' CM HEIGHT '13.5' CM FRAME 10 TW
/: BOX XPOS '10.0' CM WIDTH 0 TW HEIGHT '13.5' CM FRAME 10 TW
/: BOX XPOS '13.5' CM WIDTH 0 TW HEIGHT '13.5' CM FRAME 10 TW
Draws two rectangles and two lines to construct a table of three columns with a highlighted heading section.
POSITION Command
Syntax
/: POSITION [XORIGIN] [YORIGIN] [WINDOW] [PAGE]
Effect: Sets the origin for the coordinate system used by the XPOS and YPOS parameters of the BOX command. When a window is first started, the POSITION value is set to refer to the upper left corner of the window (default setting).
Parameters: If a parameter value does not have a leading sign, then its value is interpreted as an absolute value, in other words, as a value that specifies an offset from the upper left corner of the output page. If a parameter value is specified with a leading sign, then the new value of the parameter is calculated relative to the old value. If one of the parameter specifications is missing, then no change is made to this parameter.
XORIGIN, YORIGIN
Origin of the coordinate system.
WINDOW
Sets the values for the left and upper edges to match those of the current window (default setting).
PAGE
Sets the values for the left and upper edges to match those of the current output page (XORIGIN = 0 cm, YORIGIN = 0 cm).
/: POSITION WINDOW
Sets the origin for the coordinate system to the upper left corner of the window.
/: POSITION XORIGIN 2 CM YORIGIN '2.5 CM'
Sets the origin for the coordinate system to a point 2 cm from the left edge and 2.5 cm from the upper edge of the output page.
/: POSITION XORIGIN '-1.5' CM YORIGIN -1 CM
Shifts the origin for the coordinates 1.5 cm to the left and 1 cm up.
SIZE Command
Syntax
/: SIZE [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [WINDOW] [PAGE]
Effect: Sets the values of the WIDTH and HEIGHT parameters used in the BOX command. When a window is first started, the SIZE value is set to the same values as the window itself (default setting).
Parameters: If one of the parameter specifications is missing, then no change is made to the current value of this parameter. If a parameter value does not have a leading sign, then its value is interpreted as an absolute value. If a parameter value is specified with a leading sign, then the new value of the parameter is calculated relative to the old value.
WIDTH, HEIGHT
Dimensions of the rectangle or line.
WINDOW
Sets the values for the width and height to the values of the current window (default setting).
PAGE
Sets the values for the width and height to the values of the current output page.
/: SIZE WINDOW
Sets WIDTH and HEIGHT to the current window dimensions.
/: SIZE WIDTH '3.5' CM HEIGHT '7.6' CM
Sets WIDTH to 3.5 cm and HEIGHT to 7.6 cm.
/: POSITION WINDOW
/: POSITION XORIGIN -20 TW YORIGIN -20 TW
/: SIZE WIDTH +40 TW HEIGHT +40 TW
/: BOX FRAME 10 TW
A frame is added to the current window. The edges of the frame extend beyond the edges of the window itself, so as to avoid obscuring the leading and trailing text characters.

Rounded/curved edge/corner in page window frame/box of SAPscript

Hello,
Can anyone tell me whether SAP ECC6.0 has any functionality which allows a page window frame/box within a SAPscript form to have rounded/curved corners for the rectangular shape?.
I have reviewed various documentation and forum posts, sap notes etc. but none of them even bothered to mention or explain this. Other forum posts I have seen re this topic simply said it was not possible but I hope for a more explanatory answer than that.
It wouldn't appear to be a big ask for a form to have boxes of different shapes rather than just hard straight lines and edges but perhaps SAP have some reasoning for it which I've not seen.
Appreciate if someone out there can elaborate about this and what alternatives there would be, for example could we upload a graphic of a rounded edge box and then place text over that?.
Thanks in advance,
Michael

Thanks but my question is applicable for Smartforms too. I know SAPscript is OLD and new forms should be developed with Smartforms but at the moment we are tweaking some exisitng SAPscripts and when time permits at a future point we will move to Smartforms.
To other people out there, do you know if there is functionality in either SAPscript or Smartforms to apply Rounded/curved edges/corners in page window frames/boxes?.
Thanks.

Chinese Characters Printing as Boxes in SAPscript

Issue...why would a Chinese standard text print fine using the "INCLUDE" method, but output as boxes when that same Chinese standard text is retrieved successfully using the "PERFORM" method?
Summary...I am currently experiencing problems printing Chinese characters on a custom SAP Script form. This does not appear to be an issue with printer setup or font selection, as I am able to get the Chinese characters to appear depending on the method I use. The problem occurs when I execute a "PERFORM" within the SAP script to retrieve the Chinese standard text, the results are displayed as boxes. If I "INCLUDE" the standard text directly within the SAP script, the Chinese standard text prints without issue. I have executed the SAP script in debug mode and the Chinese text is being retrieved from the "PERFORM" statement as expected, but just does not display correctly as it does by using the "INCLUDE" approach. I'm trying to understand why the two approaches would not both work in the same manner. We are on a UNICODE system.
Though we may be able to use the "INCLUDE" method in a majority of places, we are interested in using the function "ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM" for printing addresses. This would require passing values back to the SAP script line by line.
Below is a simplified version of the two methods...
(PRINTS CHINESE CHARACTERS AS EXPECTED)
INCLUDE 'ZADDRESS_LINE1' OBJECT 'TEXT' ID 'ST' LANGUAGE &NAST-SPRAS& PARAGRAPH IG
(RESULTS IN BOXES BEING PRINTED)
PERFROM GET_TEXT IN PROGRAM ZGET_CHINESE_TEXT
USING &NAST-SPRAS&
CHANGING &ADDRESS_LINE1&
ENDPERFORM.
&ADDRESS_LINE1&
(&ADDRESS_LINE1& contains Chinese characters as expected when debugging SAP script)
FORM GET_TEXT TABLE PT_IN STRUCTURE ITCSY
PT_OUT STRUCTURE ITCSY
...USE FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT' TO RETRIEVE CHINESE TEXT FROM ZADDRESS_LINE1 STANDARD TEXT (works as expected)
read table pt_out index 1.
move ADDRESS_LINE1 to pt_out-value.
modify pt_out index 1.
(PT_OUT table is populated with chinese text as expected)
ENDFORM.

Language for form is 'ZH'.
To clarify the original post, the standard text is being retrieved correctly for both methods. By this I mean that during debugging of the SAP script I can see the Chinese text as expected for both methods. However, during print preview only the "INCLUDE" method displays correctly. I have both methods included in my current script for the same standard text and the "INCLUDE" displays fine, but not the "PERFORM" method.
Does the "CHANGING" parameter which is populated by the "PERFORM" need to be defined in a particular way? Might there an issue with the TDSYMVALUE type that is used for storing the values retrieved from the "PERFORM"?

How to print dynamic box according to the Element. I have an element with looping condition when i used box the line only printed on the first loop, but and no line printed on the next looping even though its is different element.. Below is the sneak peak of my code.

Thank you

Hi
it is very hard to print a dynamic box with sapscript.
It is more easy to develop a new-smartform then to develop a dynamic box.
i know only 1 sapscript which is using dynamic boxes. I do not know the sapscript only the fucntional name we use. That is shopfloor papers (for a production order). It has a good combination of printprogram and sapscript which both has to be working together to get it done. Try to find it and study it. Then you will find out how it works.
There is no way to get it done with only changes in your sapscript.
an alternative is to use tab's and '|' and ulines to make something that look a bit like boxes.
Hope this will help you out.
Gr., Frank

SapScript Position

Hi,
I want to change the position of a BOX in sapscript. So I used the following commang
/:   POSITION WINDOW
/:   POSITION XORIGIN '-0.5' CM
/:   BOX WIDTH '8.5' CM HEIGHT 5 CM FRAME 10 TW
It works fine. I can really see that the BOX moved 0.5 cm on the left.
The problem is that the paragraph didn't moved on left.
So What i wrote in the BOX don't fit.
hope it's clear
thank you
joseph

Yeah I know that but i don't know what happening w/ this form I getting crazy!
And it's hard to explain the problem by writting....:(
But I will try:
The original Form is HEBREW language so that mean that the form will be display from RIGHT to LEFT.
The RIGHT margin is 0.5 CM.
The second language of the is ENGLISH so the the form will be display from LEFT to RIGHT.
I was excpected that left margin will be also 0.5 cm but no.
