Can you programmatically change properties of the Detailed Navigation?

Is there an SAP EP6.0 API call to allow one to programmatically change the width of the Detailed Navigation, or programmatically hide or unhide it? I realize that this can be preset, but I am interested in dynamically changing these values.
Thanks,
John

Hi!
If you look to the sourceCode of your EP (rigthClick->show source) you'll see that some JavaScriptFiles are loaded. One of them is called:
"WAandNavPanel.js"
Inside this file are some nice functions like "collapsePanel()" and so on. I didn't try, but perhaps you can use them or they can show you the right way.

I guess the OAM is the Oracle Access Manager of oracle's fusion middleware? Also 'webgate plugin' and 'access servers' do point me that way.

Changes not reflecting in Detailed Navigation iView

Hi,
I want to change the font size of the links that appear in my Detailed Navigation iView.
When i change the font size in the List Detailed Navigation section of the Navigation Panel in my theme,the changes are not reflected in my Detailed Navigation iView.
But changes to welcome area etc are happening.
Could you please help me on this.
Thanks
Saurav

Hi,
try to change the "font size" or "base font size" in the "navigation panel styles" under Navigation panel, then the font size will effect to all in navigation panel.
If you want to apply only to Detailed navigtaion iview, change in "font weight of an item" in detailed navigation list of navigation panel.
hope this helps you.

Changing look & feel of Authentication Menu

Hello all,
I am wondering if anybody has tried to change the look & feel of the Authentication Menu modules.
The portal comes with the following as default
Authentication Description
LDAP LDAP Authentication
Membership Membership Authentication
XXX XXX Authentication
I'd like to delete the all the descriptions and change all the links from text to images, how would I do that?
I've tried to modify login_menu.html, login_menu_modules.html, had a look at amAuth.xml etc.. but couldn't solve the problem.
Anybody has done something similar please help.
Thanks & regards,
Tim

Thanks for the reply, I've read your article at the following URL
http://softwareforum.sun.com/NASApp/jive/thread.jsp?forum=2&thread=14219&message=26399&q=416c6578#26399
I examined the membership.properties and understood about the mylogin.html that you mentioned in your article. However, this process occurs after the person clicks the option on the first screen. It's called Authenicator Menu which defined by <subst data="rows">No menu?</subst> in login_menu.html.
My question was/is how to change this first screen look & feel, basically split/delete text that generated by the portal?
I am also having another question, how do we put the "Content" "Layout" to the menubar.jsp?
Thanks & regards,
Tim

Changing Look & Feel of xMII HomePage

Hi all,
Can anyone plz tell me which files to be checked if we need to change the look and feel of header or footer or the whole xMII Portal HomePage.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Muzammil P.T

Muzammil,
You would also be better off by making your own theme file (copy the DynamicHomePage.xsl file from the wwwroot/Illuminator/Themes folder and put it into your project folder). Then you can copy the necessary pieces and change the html references accordingly in the theme file. Assign this newly created theme to your primary user Role in the Navigation editor and login to xMII to see the changes.
By having the theme file and the supporting header/footer/images/etc. located in your project folder it ensures that backup and copy routines will include these nested files and when migrating to version 12.0 they will be included and become part of the project.

For example, I would like to change the Error page "The webgate plug-in can't connect to any access servers."
Can Someone help me by throwing light on the above question?

Changing the Look of Detail Navigation area....

Hi all,
I would like to know,about how we can achieve the same look n feel of Detailed Navigation that we see in the SDN page.
To be specific, for the Detail Navigation area we have a bar with arrows at two ends, one, to increase the size(width) of Detialed navigation area and other to collapse the DN Area.
Here in the SDN page we can see just a white arrow to collapse the DN area ( without the two arrow sign to increase/decrease the width of DN area).
I have tried with some of the options from the Them Editor of Portal Display but was unable to get the same.
What customization needs to be done to achieve this feature in our EP.
Appreciate your valuable inputs.
Regards,
NR

Hi
To achieve this in SDN we have created our own desktop, which includes our own iviews for each of the different areas. Therefore we entirely use the functionality of the EFP (Externally Facing Portal) and essentially the portal light framework.
However, you should be able to create a something without going to all of this effort. The bit of HTML that is generated for the expand/collapse icons is done in the com.sap.portal.layouts.framework component in the WAandNavPanel.jsp (for the full portal) and light_WAandNavPanel.jsp for the light portal. You could therefore create your own layout page (based on this standard) and simply remove the HTML.
Once you have then deployed your custom component, you need to create a page template from this, using your new custom_WAandNavPanel. Create a new desktop (or change the standard one), and replace the standard framework page with your customer framework page.
Let me know if you need more information about this and I can try and help as much as possible. There are various other threads that include how to customise the desktop, etc.
I hope this helps

Query regarding portal look & feel

Hi All,
I have deployed my j2ee application on sap. I also need to change look & feel of my pages(iviews) when user changes portal theme. For this I am passing url of css used by portal to my application, but I am fetching it in login page only and putting it in session so that all pages use the same css, hence user need to click on the first page of my application to reflect changes.
Problem is that if user has opened another page and he changes portal theme, it gets reflected in portal standard components but not in my pages until I click the first page that is for login.
How can I achieve portal's look & feel.
Please suggest...

Changing look of Detailed Navigation

Hallo,
Can anybody tell me how to change look of Detailed Navigation globally for all pages or for certain page?
Best regards,
Josef Motl

Hi Josef,
lines between entries are not possible with the theme editor, I believe.
On which SAP EP version are you?
If applicable use the new navigation tag lib (SPS14) otherwise I would suggest to update to this version.
You can achieve any design you want with this tag lib.
Directly editing of the DetailedNavigation-iView is a nightmare (I tried it by myself). And you will have the problem of keeping everything compliante in new versions (which will be the next nigthmare).
This is the link to the documentation of the tag lib:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/42/f35146a7203255e10000000a1553f7/content.htm
Please note, that the example of the DTN iView there has a bug. See this thread for a solution:
Re: EFP - DTN - Null Pointer Exception

Detailed Navigation: Change Font per level?

Hi Guys and Girls,
I've got a simple question. I just can't find out where to modify it. I hope it is possible without any developments.
I want to change the font per level in the detailed navigation. Resulting in a more Website look 'n Feel.
Eg:
Level 1: Bold and Dark blue, Level 2: Yellow, Level 3: Black
Hope you can help,
Thx,
Geert

I'd start by editing these style sheets:
nav_ie6.css
tree_ie6.css
They should be under your theme's laf directory...do a search.

Patrick

Losing Title Bar when changing Look and Feel on the fly

Hello,
I have an option in my Swing app for the user to change the Look & Feel on the fly by selecting from a radio button list. The look and feel is changed when the user make the selection, however the Windows Title Bar disappears. Any ideas what I'm missing?
private void setLook(String mode)
String lookAndFeelClassName = null;
UIManager.LookAndFeelInfo looks[] = UIManager.getInstalledLookAndFeels();
for (int i = 0; i < looks.length; i++)
if (mode.equalsIgnoreCase(looks.getName()))
lookAndFeelClassName = looks[i].getClassName();
break;
try
m_view.dispose();
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(lookAndFeelClassName);
SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(m_view);
m_view.setVisible(true);
catch (Exception e)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(m_view, "Can't change look and feel:" + lookAndFeelClassName, "Invalid PLAF", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);

You are disposing the view. My guess is that this is your problem. Try creating a new one instead of just showing the old disposed one

Event on changing Look and Feel

I want to know what event is fired when I change Look and Feel.
Thanks,
Pati

Ideally you'll be using the UIManager.setLookAndFeel() to change the installed LookAndFeel. In the UIManager, the installed LNF is bound to a JavaBeans property using the SwingPropertyChangeSupport with the key: "lookandfeel". Any time this changes, a PropertyChangeEvent will be fired to the PropertyChangeListeners registered with the UIManager. You can simply add a PropertyChangeListener to the UIManager and listen for events that are bound to that particular property, such as...
    UIManager.addPropertyChangeListener( new PropertyChangeListener() {
        public void propertyChange( PropertyChangeEvent e ) {
            if( "lookAndFeel".equals( e.getPropertyName() ) ) {
                System.out.println( "look and feel changed" );
    });The event encapsulates the new value and the old value so you can do whatever you need with that information.
I used an anonymous inner class mostly as an example - You may need to consider a cleaner design for your purposes.
Hope this helps!
Matt
