Creating folder in detailed navigation

Hi All,
I am trying to create a tree like structure in left navigation panel. To achieve this i have created folder under folder that solved my purpose, but by using this approach, the user is able to see the folder icons in the structure. How to remove the folder icons for these folders.
Thanks,
Ansar.

Hi Frank,
I tried by hand with the Folder properties in portal.
I remember reading something similar long back some where in this forums (i think it's in KM forum) that this is not possible by standard means.
All, Plz correct me if i am wrong.
Regards,
SK.

How to create links under Detailed Navigation Panel

Hi All,
Our reqt is to create many links under "Detailed Navigation Panel" so that portal users may click on any of those links to navigate to that particular iView.
For example. I have created 3 iViews ( A,B and C). In the "Detailed Navigation Panel" i would like to have three links( One, Two and Three). If user clicks "One", it should go to iView A.
Kindly help me how to do this. Many Thanks in Advance. Appreciate if any one could send me the detailed steps involved on this.

Hi Venkat,
As far as I understand your requirement, you don't want to have these links as part of the detailed navigation within the navigation hierarchy, but below, within the navigation panel, statically, right?!
For such a static solution, you could just create an iView displaying these links, and put that iView into the navigation panel of the desktop innerpage, see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/b4/771158e4cb4bf6af9974380948db86/frameset.htm for the structure details (below the Detailed Navigation iView).
Hope it helps

Expanding WPC detailed navigation nodes

I'd very much like for our Web page composer navigation nodes in the detailed navigation to expand on load. Preferably I would like to have the option to expand all nodes.
For me it doesn't even seem to work to use the new functionality of the detailed navigation iview where you can set the first node to expand on load. This works if the first node is a work set but not if it's a folder pointing to a WPC navigation structure.
Any tips?
Regards
Henning Strand

Jagadeesh,
the detailed navigation (and everything that belongs to the framework page) is under responsibility of the Portal. The Web Page Composer tool is just managing the pages not how they are shown in the Portal environment. Therefore WPC should not be blamed for lack of this specific functionality.
What you want can be achieved by means of some custom code in the framework. You could create your own detailed navigation iview which following some logic determines which pages need navigation tree shown and which not. Writing such an iview is not trivial effort you may also try to insert some logic (iview) in the framework page which removes the detail navigation iview from the POM tree but I am not really sure if that will work or not.
Hope this gives some more light.

Open iviews in new window from detailed navigation context menu function

hello,
when we click in the detail navigation menu and in the context menu (because many of ours users are used to right click to open a link in a new window on the internet) on the functionnality "open in new window", the start page is always display instead of the corresponding iview ...
could you tell me if there is a configuration into the portal to :
1- suppress the function "open in new window" from the context menu in the detailed navigation !
2- make the iview displayed into the new window really the iview desired !
best regards,
Olivier.

Hi Olivier,
The frist part is very precise. Not possible. Period. The reason is that the links are calling JS and not directly calling a http target.
About the second part: Within the Light Framework, you create a Light Detailed Navigation. And in this case, the links are direct http links. So with that, you have what you want.
For the Light Framework see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/43/0174a642406db7e10000000a422035/frameset.htm and around.

Fodler in detailed navigation wont open

Hey people!
I having some problems with folder in detailed navigation. The problem is that the folder wont expand. I have tested it on several computers, and i am only experince this problem on one computer. That means that its not a issue inside the portal, but with the browser, or some local security issue. All the computers are/should using the same security settings. Do you got any tips what could be wrong?
The computer it fails on, have earlier had IE 7.0 installed, but this is now removed and IE 6.0 is installed. So it could be some IE leftovers.

Kirstoffer,
I would check the registry under Microsoft Software registry entries. There is a diagnotic tool or you could check the following manually.
HKCR = HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
HKLM = HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
HKCU = HKEY_CURRENT_USER

Detailed Navigation (disable expand./collapse icons opening tree

Hi,
I would like to adjust the detailed navigation as this site performs with having no action when clicking the +/- icons.
Please can someone point me in the right direction. I have been able to get the detailed navigation.par file out and look at the jsp code, but not sure where this requires a change.
Will reward points for a helpful answer....
Kai

If I am reading your question correctly, you want to create a detailed navigation similar to SDN so that when you click on the expand/collapse icon it doesn't do a server round trip.
Firstly I believe that the standard one performs a round trip to retrieve the nodes underneath the one that you have expanded.
With SDN we created our own detailed navigation iview so that the entire navigation structure is loaded immediately. This is also the same if you use the standard light navigation iview I believe, so you could simply use this iview instead.
I hope this helps

Create link in detailled level navigation after creating BSP iview

Hi All,
I have created few bsp iview in portal. After assigning these iview to role, a create link is unnecessary visible in detailled navigation.
I would like to hide it.
I have tried to play with iview properties but no luck
please advice.
Regards
Shashwat Gupta

Dear Shashwat,
Try assigning BSP iview or page directly to roles and test it.
Also check in page or workset properties to hide from detailed navigation instead of iview itself.

Can you default a detailed navigation folder to an "open" state?

We have a workset containing iViews, and the detailed navigation on the left displays the iViews within a folder as we would like. However, the folder defaults to being closed, thus making the user click twice to arrive at an iView inside. Is there a way to default that folder to being open?

Hi Kris,
Its is not possible to have a folder expanded by default when you have all other parallel folders are closed.
Either you can expand only the root folder on DLN or expand all the folders. Expanding all the folder option would need DLN .par customization.
Set the below settings to open launched folder:
Go to Your current Framework Page -> Desktop inner page -> Open Detailed Navigation iView and set the property -> Open Folder when Launched as yes.
Initial State of Navigation Panel option shall expand/close the entire DLN.

Remove Folder icon on detailed navigation

Could anyone tell me how to more the folder icon from the detailed navigation so that I can have my detailed navigation look like it does on the left of this page?
I would also like to know how to get the "+" and "-" icons to display instead of bullets.
Thanks
Patrick

Hi Patrick,
Download the par file named com.sap.portal.navigation.detailedtree.par from the pcd directory and import it in Netweaver developer studio. You will find two gif files in the /dist/images folder. Rename your image files as the files in that folder. Then copy your images to that folder. Then rebuild the par file and rename it to com.sap.portal.navigation.detailedtree.par and upload it to the server. Restart the server and your tree should have changed.

KM Doc iView-How the content can be displayed in detailed navigation area

Hi Experts,
I have doubt related with KM Document iView.
I have created a HTML page in KM, which will hold 2 links. Give names to these links and href as follows.
Link1: http://<host>:<port>/irj/portal/*
Link2: http://<host>:<port>/irj/portal/*
I have created KM Document iView (ABC) and provided path to document of above HTML page.
Then I opened my role, created folder inside, and added KM Document iView (ABC). Then I opened the properties of this iView in role and change the property, Initial state as Open,
I had then expected that the KM document iView (ABC) content Link1 and Link2 to appear in detail navigation area.
It is not happening. Can you please let me know what is going wrong here
In other words can you please let me know how I can ensure that
Link1 Link2 should appear in detailed navigation area side by side.
Thanks

Hi Frank,
Thanks. But this has already been implemented in one project. I have seen this. In that project the detailed navigation area looks like as shown below. The image link and iview link appear in one line
'jpg image1' 'iviewLink1'
'jpg image2' 'iviewLink2'
'jpg image3' 'iviewLink3'
'jpg image4' 'iviewLink4'
When the user clicks on jpg image, one iview gets open. When user clicks on iview link other iview gets open.
I tried a lot. But, I am unable to do this.
Can it be done using custom PAR file or Visual composer?
Will appreciate if you can help.
Thanks
Brian

By default collapse all folders in Detailed Navigation

Hi,
Could anyone tell me if it's possible to collapse folders which are build in this manner:
Role 1
.. Folder 1
.... Page a
.... Page b
.... Page c
.. Folder 2
.... Page d
.... Page e
.... Page f
.. Folder 3
.... Page x
.... Page y
.... Page z
ect...
I am working with EP6sp14, especially to run the External Facing Portal.
Thanks helping me and my customer..

Hi Leurs
Ur req is very much possible
What u need 2 do is make ur
1)toplevel navigation level to 0
2)detailed level navigation display level property to 1.
I will explain each step
1) I. Configure Top-Level Navigation
 1.In the Portal Catalog choose Portal Users-> Standard Portal Users. This folder contains the Default Framework Page.
 2.Right-click Default Framework Page and choose Open->Object.
 3.From the Page Content List select the Top-Level Navigation iView and click Properties.
 4.Scroll to the Number of Display Levelsproperty and enter the value 0, 1, or 2, depending on how many navigation levels, if any, you want for top-level navigation.
 Choosing 0 removes your top-level navigation and displays your navigation structure in the Detailed Navigation iView.
 5.Click Save.
2 Configure Detailed Navigation
1.From the Page Content List of the Default Framework Page, select Desktop Innerpage and click Open.
2.From the Page Content List of the Desktop Innerpage select the Detailed Navigation iView and click Properties.
3.Scroll to the Start at Level property and assign a value that is one higher than the value of the Number of Display Levels property in procedure l. Configure Top-Level Navigation. For example, if top-level navigation is configured for one level, the detailed navigation begins on the second level, that is with the value 2.
4.Click Save.
 Detailed navigation is not automatically synchronized with top-level navigation; the values you enter for top-level and detailed navigation must agree. For example, if you enter the value 1 for top-level navigation, while detailed navigation still has the value 3, one level is left out, creating a gap.
III. Configure the Content Area
 1.From the Page Content List of the Desktop Innerpage, select the Content Area iView and click Properties.
 2.Scroll to the Number of Display Levels in TLN property and enter the same value as that of the Number of Display Levels property in procedure I. Configure Top-Level Navigation.
 3.Click Save.
These steps will make ur Portal the way u want, i guess.

Folders in detailed navigation

Hi all,
I've created a role and a workset which is assigned to that role.
In that workset i've some folders which contains iviews and i need the folders to be available in the detailed navigation panel for that role to view those views... but i'm not getting that folders in the detailed navigation list.
Can anyone help me to get the folders in the navigation panel?
Rergards,
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
The basic concept is that what is seen to enduser is IVIEW
excepr that nothing is visible,What you are doing is that
Role - -> Workset - - > Folder (Iviews)
With this how could you can view folder in Detailed level navigation.
What you can Try is
Role - -> workset - - >Km Navigation Iview (Stating path of Folder to be Displayed ).
It will work fine.
Please reward pionts if helpfull.
Regards.
