Creating tabs in XML Forms builder

hi all,
is there anyway we can create a form in xml forms builder with different tabs? would that require manual coding?
thanks!

Hello Samer,
the XMLForms buidler does not support tabs.
Manual changes to the files created by the XMLForms build is not recommanded, because you would loose all your chance, if you make afterwards a change within the Forms builder.

  • Alternate product for xml form builder

    Hi,
    I have just set up my portal environment with different xml forms.
    These forms are created with the xml forms builder
    I was wondering if there is an alternative for this because I'm experiencing that the xml form builder doesn't have a lot of options...
    Can I for example use the adobe pdf forms or the SAP smartforms?
    What do I have to do then?  Is it enough to just upload the layout folder to /etc/xmlforms and the content folder to /documents? (my current folders)
    Can I also make an iView with a reference to these folders?  How can I make a link between the folder where the content is stored and the form? (in XML form builder via path)
    Can anyone give me some advice on this?
    Thx

  • XML Forms Builder - Create XML in external System

    Hi,
    Is it possible to create a XML file in a system external to Portal (the DataModel is the same) and after uploading it to the Portal and obtain the same behavior (rendering) of a XML created in Portal by the form generated by XML Forms Builder?
    I've tried to do it, but the file is not rendered as expected.(It appears the XML File but not rendered by the XSL generated by XML Forms Builder).
    Regards,
    André

  • Creating radio buttons in XML Forms Builder

    Hi everyone,
    I can't seem to find any instructions on how to create Radio Buttons in XML Forms builder, anyone has a link or instruction on how to?
    Thanks,
    Samer

    Hi Samer,
    So taking the example for the slides, you need first to create a new child under DataModel for the DataSchema. You can name it "Gender".
    Click on the Radio Button in the Toolbar and drag "Gender" from the left hand site into the Edit Form.
    It should have already a first radio button and in the box on the bottum right you should see the reference in the Schema Reference field (/DataShema/DataModel/Gender).
    You can now drag a second button from the toolbar and place it behind the first one. Make sure you add the same value in the Schema Reference field.
    On the Show form or RenderListItem you need a Control Selector as mentioned on slide 18. You can just use right mouse click -> Add. Go on the new item on the right hand side, and click on "Add Multiple Labels". You can choose now how many radio buttons you have, here 2.
    In our example enter in one Label "Condition" = "true" and "Label" = "Male" and in the other "Condition" = "false" and "Label" = "Female".
    Finally, make sure that the Control Selector has the Schema Reference also as defined above (/DataShema/DataModel/Gender).
    Hope this helps,
    Robert

  • Creating a iview for XML Form builder Edit Form

    Dear Experts
    I have created an XML Form builder application which has Edit from,Renderlist and Show form. I able to create a datafile in by going to content manager. My requirement is to create an iview for Edit form so that i can assignt he ivew to end user to fill this form. I dont want to give content admin to end user.
    I need to create an ivew to XML Form builder Edit Form
    Regards
    Noel

    Hi,
    Now I'm confused,what do you mean with create new data? Are users editing existing documents
    (as if they go to a document example.xml > edit) or they are creating new documents (as if they go
    on folder > new > forms)?
    The problem is, in both cases a user would need read/write permissions.
    The normal flow content (data) is created in KM is as follows:
    1. user is assigned to a role
    2. role contains KM Navigation iView
    3. KM Navigation iView executes com.sap.km.cm.navigation component
    4. user chooses New > Form UI command (edit_xml_forms)
    5. edit_xml_forms UI command executes its code (com.sapportals.wcm.rendering.uicommand.cm.UIXMLFormsCreateCommand) and open xml edit for the user
    6. user fill the form and click Save, form is created into folder
    For what I understood so far, your requirement basically asks you to go directly to step 5, it is
    possible to pass a URL that goes directly to step 5, the UI command button, but if you do that
    you won't have a context, so chances that it will work are slim, since a context is required to
    fill the parameters asked by the app (like folder, user, permissions, etc). Even though, in some cases you can
    still pass the parameters via post in the URL but you must know which service/parameters the
    app asks for it, also a URL is static...
    That was the create scenario, I think it's more cons than pros, users would still be
    able to bypass the URL iView created for that, I'd suggest evaluating again if it's really
    a problem having users access cm to manage data
    kind regards,
    Rafael

    Regards,

    Hi,
    is it always the same checkbox that is already filled in? Is this ckeckbox based on a metadata-definition?
    If yes: You could maybe have a look at the metadata-definition. Is there maybe a default-value defined?

  • In XML form builder data schema not clickable

    Hi,
    my problem is simular to Aditys: My Java Version is JRE 1.6.0_15. When I go to Content Managment --> Formbuilder, the XML Forms Builder starts automatically but it is not possible to open Data Schema. After downgrade to Java 1.4 I can not start the Form Builder, that means, after clicking on "Form Builder" in the Portal, a pop-up opens, but the XML Form Builder does not load.
    Can you help me?
