Cannot edit a reports layout in layout model

Hi,
I am trying to edit the report in layout model (Reprots 6i) but it does not allow me, it's kind of disabled/ locked out. I have saved as copy but cannot edit the the copy also. Is there a property which is making the layout as read only. I cannot even select a filed inside the layout to open the property editor.
Thanks
Kiran

HI,
Maybe you are trying to work in*Edit Margin* section. Check the second last button in first top toolbar called Edit Margin if clicked then unclick and then try to select/edit.

Adobe reader XI-cannot edit text, spacing,layout.....

adobe reader XI--cannot edit document scanned in from cannon pixma nor from email

Correct. Reader can't edit PDF files. It can't even create PDf files, so you must have used the software that came with your scanner to do that.
You should scan your documents to another format, like PNG or TIFF, edit them in a photo editor, like Photoshop, and then convert them to PDF using an application like Acrobat.

How to edit the "Oracle Three Column Layout" page template?

Hello all,
My question is very simple: how can one edit the Oracle Three Column Layout page template? I tried searching the file system for a file called "threeColumnTemplate.jspx" but I cannot seem to find it. Is it hidden into a jar file of some kind? Or at least can anyone tell me the name of the nice component located in the upper right corner that displays the loading activity?
Thanks.

Extract oracle-page-templates.jar with winzip & browse to location oracle/templates
open the file threeColumnTemplate.jspx using jdeveloper.
after you open it , you can edit the logo , save the changes & create this jar again or save it to the zip which will automatically update the jar.

Deploying report in web layout.

Hi Friends,
I have developed a report throuhg report builder 9i for both web and paper layout. When I am running this paper layout mode the output format is appearing perfectly but in case of web layout not is appearing properly as well as item with VISIBLE property 'NO' is also appearing.
Please give the solution bit details probably with eaxmple.
Thanks in advance.
Sanjeev

Sanjeev,
Paper and WebLayout are using different informations. For Paper Layout the "classical" Model with fields and frames and corresponding properties is used. For the Web Layout the WebSource (see in Object Navigator) is used. So changing a property in paper layout will not change the web layout (with the exception of using the include-tag in the web source, which references a frame with content from the paper layout).

Rainer

No frames visible in Reports 2.5 Layout on Win2000

Hello:
I upgraded my OS to Win2000 and run Reports 2.5. I am unable to
see the frames in the layout editor (the reports
displayed/worked fine on Win 98). Please help.
Thanks
Peter

Hello,
Is there any particular reason you cannot upgrade to Reports 6i? Reports 2.5 is quite old, and there have been a number of issues resolved with images since then.

Displaying a Report in Web Layout

Hello All,
Can anyone please tell me how to display reports in web layout during runtime. I've created a report in month_report.jsp, having both Web Layout & Paper Layouts. At runtime when I call the report the Paper Layout version is getting displayed. Is there any extra parameter I've to pass.
For Example if I give the following address
http://host-110:7778/reports/rwservlet?&report=month_report.jsp&destype=cache&desformat=htmlcss&userid=admin/test@testing&p_month=JANUARY
I get to see the Paper Layout version of the report. What I want is the Web layout. Is there any thing or any setting I've change in the Reports server. Kindly help me out on this.
Regards,
Arun.V

Thanks for your reply dsegard,
I tried out your suggestion. It seems the I'm able to access the jsp report. But I'm getting the following error on screen.
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
A name was started with an invalid character. Error processing resource 'http://host-150/test/monthly_rpt.jsp'. Line ...
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/lib/reports_tld.jar" prefix="rw" %>
-^
I checked by accessing a simple jsp page without a tag library. It's worked fine. I also checked to see whether the corresponding jar file was missing from the library.But it wasn't. Could you please point out what's causing this error.

Run 10g Report in Web Layout

Hi,
I am using Report Builder:10.1.2.0.2 installed on Windows XP (Service Pack 3) and developed simple report. We are using Oracle E-Business Suite R12 and developed report by connecting to the EBS database.
I have created "Data Model" and designed "Paper Layout". After compiling the report when i tried to run report using "Paper Layout" report generates the report in Paper layout but similarly if i try to to run the report using "Web Layout" then it opens blank Internet Explorer page. I want to see same output with Paper Layout is displaying using Web Layout too. Please guide me with steps i need to perform to achieve the requirement..
Regards,
Priyanka

Hello,
The web layout (that is, the web source) is primarily used for the .jsp format for added flexibility via the web for web developers using Oracle Reports.
You will need to add your own code to the "Web Source" in order for anything to be displayed in the web layout. Additionally, any changes made to the Paper Layout will not cross over to the Web Layout per confirmation with Development. You may use the rw:include tag in the Web Source (see Help) to obtain some of the paper layout in your web layout.
Having a rdf file with only a paper layout, does not mean that this report when run will not display in a web page.
You can still perform the following with Oracle Reports 9i or higher and use the .rdf to display the paper layout from the web:
http//webserver.domain:7779/reports/rwservlet?report=you_report.rdf&destype=cache&desformat=html&userid=scott/tiger@db
Kind regards,
Alex

Cannot drag divs in fluid grid layout

I am running Dreamweaver CS6 in OS X Mavericks.
When I am building pages in fluid grid layout I seem to reach a point where I can no longer grab div boxes on the left or right to resize. Is this because you cannot edit a fluid grid layout from a template?
Thanks,
Joshua

I can tell you from personal experience that once the FGLayouts are built for mobile, tablet and desktop, fully tested and validated, you should put a HALT on that phase of your project.
Then SaveAs Template. Everything from that point forward is sans the FG Design Panels and just about adding content.
And yes, keeping content styles in a separate physical file is highly recommended. That way if something awful happens to your CSS styles, you're not putting your FGLayouts in peril.

Report with custom layout - formatting conditions

Hi,
There's a report with custom layout. What I need is to format some cells depending on the data they contain(like different background color). There's a tab named "Formatting Conditions" which should be meant for doing this and it works perfectly when report has tabular layout. But nothing happens in case of custom layout. Should this be done then in the "Report Layout Editor" and with Javascript? Portal version is 3.0.9.8.0.
Thanks in advance,
Madis

Hi,
Some condtions like background color do not work in custom mode reports. This is because in case of custom reports the table html is specified by the user and the report renderer has no control over it.
Hope this helps.

Shared Components APEX Report Query and Layout

Does anyone know how to call the report query and layout from the Shared components section from a page within the application?

mtbdude40 wrote:
What I need is this: The ability to create a PDF report with a custom header defining the data (example - select * from emp where deptno = :deptno and the header includes the department name).
I use this white paper as my source: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/learnmore/custom-pdf-reports-1953918.pdf
You need to build and use a Shared Resource -> Report Queries.
The Report Query will have two queries associated with it (see below).
one query will be for the header information, the other will be for the data.
use the "download" of the "xml data" as your source for Altova/other tools.
If you add/remove/change queries, You'll have to redo your report (from scratch) as that changes the XML Schema required. (at least, with my experience)
Once you get the hang of it, 2x queries is easy (Header, data)
I've experimented with 3x queries (header, master,details) but have been unsuccessful. I have some ideas though ("link" master->detail info via XPath stuff within Altova) but haven't gotten around to testing it.
If you want to run the report for multiple departments....That might require some finesse.
Unfortunately, the Source of the Queries can't be a scalar SQL that returns 1 row of 1 column of data type XMLType....

Problem running report in web layout

Hi
I have a problem of running my report in web layout.
If i run the report in web layout it does not show the changes that i made to it , the colors and text sizes and styles, if I used no templates and changed the report manually it will just show the report as before it was modified.
But when I run it in paper layout every works fine.
Any ideas about what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks

Also I tested with the sample Report Test.rdf (Comes along with installation).
Even that runs well in Paper Layout and report hangs when run in Web Lay out.
Please help me with your valuable inputs on this regard.
Thanks and Regards,

Thanks Frank,
No one seems to giving me a reply in the reports forums. They are hard to come by. Could you please direct me to some post which might be helpfull. I just want to know whether there's something wrong with the way I'm calling the report... May be thats the reason that I'm getting the Paper Layout as output instead of Web Layout.

How to dislay other language font in Report Builder paper layout?

How to I display other language font (e.g. chinese) in Report Builder paper layout?
I have no problem displaying Chinese characters in web layout.

If your NLS_LANG is properly set to chinese character set and if you are choosing the right chinese fonts, in Reports builder, your report paper layout should display chinese characters properly.
If you are generating to PDF, then you might want to use PDF subsetting to display the chinese characters properly.
See the documentation on how to use PDF subsetting.
