Custom Button Tooltips

How do I go about changing the tooltips of custom buttons.
One of the projects I'm working on right now has a button with a
graphic and is labeled "Print". Now I'd like to change the tooltip
hover to say something other than "Print".

Hi ClubHans
If you click
This
super handy little ole link right here, you can download a copy
of my Skinny on Skins file. Once you get it saved, you may need to
right click it and Unblock it. After you get it displaying things,
click the Index tab and type "tooltip" into the index. I believe
you will find a topic titled "Tooltips for custom buttons".
Hopefully that should get you going.
Cheers... Rick

How can I get a tooltip to show up on a custom button obj on a dashboard?

I have added a ClearAll button object (to clear the filter criteria) on a dashboard that I am working on, and have added some text in the comments section of the properties. I can see the resulting tooltip when I hover over the button in the Client Side IR studio tool; however, when I upload the .bqy to the server and view the report in the web EPM version, the tooltip does not show. I can see the other tooltips for the buttons that were originally on the dashboard template I used, but I cannot see the one for the custom button I added. Does anyone have any ideas how I can get this to show up?
Thanks in advance,
Cindy

I copied an existing clear filter object (I believe this is an image object, but not sure how to confirm) from the provided square tab sample template in Express Template.bqy. After your post, I took a second look at the object and remembered I had changed the name from picClearAll to ClearAll. I had changed the name because the button was continually disabled when navigating within the dashboard before I renamed it. I am assuming this is because the object picClearAll in the provided templates is associated with results filters. I do not have any results filters, so it was showing as disabled. I have filters on the query itself, and was hoping to use this same image on my button to clear the query filters (I put java scripting behind the button to do this).
Another interesting thing about this is that when I change the name of the object back to picClearAll, and during runtime force the button to be enabled, I DO see the tooltip I am trying to get to work; however, as soon as I navigate or refresh the dashboard in some way, the button goes back to disabled.
How can I get the button to be enabled (without having filters on my results), and still show my tooltip?
I am using Hyperion version 11.1.1.3.0.956.
Thank you for your help,
Cindy

CRM 2013: Custom button to Open multiselect lookup with custom view

Hello Everyone,
Looking for your suggestions to implement the following requirement.
We want to implement a custom button on the sub grid of Custom Entity (Lets say, "PersonMapping"). The custom button should open another entity multi select lookup(Lets say, "Person"). Till here we could achieve by directly opening the
multi lookup url of the Person using "Window.showModelDialog". But in this lookup, we want to set our custom view as default view. Please suggest some solution to achieve this.
Thanks.

Hi,
First of all I would advice you to post this question in the new CRM 2007 forum.
We have created our own button that calls an URL in a separate window. Here is some coding from the method CALLBACK~GET_BUTTONS which may inspirere you:
CONCATENATE 'javascript:window.open'
              lv_http
              '","Print","resizable=yes,height=850,width=700,dependent=yes,status=1");'
         INTO lv_java.
ls_button-type     = cl_thtmlb_util=>gc_icon_print.
ls_button-tooltip = cl_wd_utilities=>get_otr_text_by_alias( 'CRM_UIU_BT_SALES_QUOT/SALESQUOT_PRINT' ).
ls_button-on_client_click = lv_java.
ls_button-page_id = me->component_id.
ls_button-enabled = abap_true.
APPEND ls_button TO rt_buttons.
CLEAR ls_button.
ls_button-text     = cl_wd_utilities=>get_otr_text_by_alias( 'CRM_UIU_BT_SALES_QUOT/SORDER_CREATEFOLLOW-UP' )."#EC NOTEXT
ls_button-tooltip = cl_wd_utilities=>get_otr_text_by_alias( 'CRM_UIU_BT_SALES_QUOT/SORDER_CREATEFOLLOW-UP' )."#EC NOTEXT
ls_button-on_click = 'FOLLOWUP'.                          "#EC NOTEXT
ls_button-page_id = me->component_id.
ls_button-enabled = lv_persistent.
APPEND ls_button TO rt_buttons.
CLEAR ls_button.

¿Custom button with different size/shape for rollover state in Muse?

Hello, i'm trying to make a custom button, that has one size/shape when normal, and other size/shape when rollover.
The problem is that the area not visible in normal state is a hot area, so when then mouse rollover anywhere near, activates the button rollover state.
So i think what i need is mask or something like that
Is there a work around to do this? Is even possible in normal CSS - HTML5?
Here is the website:

And here what i'm talking about:
Thanks in advance!

I'm not fully understanding the screenshot, but what you're describing sounds more like a Composition:Tooltip widget than a button.

Custom Button in ALV Grid standard toolbar

Hello Experts,
I am working on the program in which i have to add custom button to standard toolbar in ALV. I have created the button using the method as below
     data: lr_functions type ref to cl_salv_functions_list.
     lr_functions = gr_table->get_functions( ).
     lr_functions->set_default( abap_true ).
     data: l_text       type string,
           l_icon       type string.
*    l_text = text-b01.
     l_icon = icon_complete.
     try.
       lr_functions->add_function(
         name     = 'Update Equipment Cost'
         icon     = l_icon
         text     = l_text
         tooltip = 'Update Equipment Cost'
         position = if_salv_c_function_position=>right_of_salv_functions ).
       catch cx_salv_existing cx_salv_wrong_call.
     endtry.
I don't understand how to add functionality to this button. I want to design the functionality as when user press button then corresponding values on the screen will be automatically get updated in the table.
Thanks,
Avadhut

Hi Avadhut,
When you want to add a custom button on ALV - better copy the GUI Status of the standard ALV to your program. So all the function codes are copied , now you can go to the GUI_STATUS which is copied and you can mention your own function code or you can let the standard function codes as it is. You can copy the GUI of standard ALV from SE80 transaction. Let me know if you need any assistance in doing it.
Now, if you want to write the code for any of the button on ALV - then you need to handle it is the class.
I used CL_SALV_TABLE - if you are using same then the below code gives you an idea of it.
1. Create a local class in your program
*       CLASS lcl_alv_events DEFINITION
CLASS lcl_alv_events DEFINITION FINAL.
   PUBLIC SECTION.
     METHODS: on_user_command FOR EVENT added_function OF cl_salv_events
                              IMPORTING e_salv_function.
ENDCLASS.                    "lcl_alv_events DEFINITION
DATA: gv_event_handler TYPE REF TO lcl_alv_events.
CREATE OBJECT gv_event_handler.
* Header object
CREATE OBJECT gr_header.
2. Class Implementation
   CLASS lcl_alv_events IMPLEMENTATION.
      METHOD on_user_command.
     CASE e_salv_function.
     **When PROCESS Button is selected
       WHEN '&PROC'.    ***> In my program I added Process button and fcode for it - &PROC
      ***********Write your code here ******************
    ENDCASE.
   ENDMETHOD.
ENDCLASS.                    "lcl_alv_events IMPLEMENTATION
3. Calling events
   data: gr_events    TYPE REF TO cl_salv_events_table,
           gr_alv       TYPE REF TO cl_salv_table.
   TRY.
       CALL METHOD cl_salv_table=>factory
         IMPORTING
           r_salv_table = gr_alv
         CHANGING
           t_table      = p_in_tab[].    ***This is my internal table data.
      gr_events = gr_alv->get_event( ).
         SET HANDLER gv_event_handler->on_user_command FOR gr_events.
     CATCH cx_salv_msg INTO lv_msg.                      "#EC NO_HANDLER
     CATCH cx_salv_not_found INTO lv_excep.              "#EC NO_HANDLER

Add on custom button to ALV toolbar in std tcode ME51N, ME52N and ME53N.

Hi All,
I have the requirement to add on the custom button to ALV toolbar in ITEM OVERVIEW for standard transaction ME51N, ME52N and ME53N. Does anyone know what enhancement point or user exit i should apply and how i can add on the custom button?
Thanks.

There are no user exits or badi's for COOIS. You may have to make copy of the PPIO_ENTRY to ZPPIO_ENTRY including all the varians without changing their names like copy SAP&COOIS to SAP&COOIS. Create a T-Code ZCOOIS and replace COOIS in variant SAP&COOIS to ZCOOIS not in the name of the variant but in the field "Check Authorization for".
The PF-Status is found in the include LCOISOUTPUTF16 which is located in the function group COISOUTPUT you may have to copy that too. Finally you need to copy SAPLCOISOUTPUT with its GUI status GENERAL and add your custom button there.

Custom button on ALV report for Tcode FL10G ?

Hi All,
I want to add custom button in the AVL report for FL10G transaction. And then need to implement logic for that button (calling BAPI to create shipment for the selected records).
For VL10G alv program GUI Status - STANDARD001 I think I can add button in this gui by using access key.
But how to implement logic for this custom button? Where I can put the code for this button logic?
Please let me know if any one has any ideas on this issue.
I appreciate your help and time on this.
Thanks.

Hi Murali,
The standard program it will not allow to copy the GUI Status. Because source and target program should not same.
It will definitely debug will work. Yo can create the GUI Status through SE41. In SE41 Just give Program name :SAPLV50R_VIEW click the button status. here you should not give any gui status. just blindy say create the then it will popup screen appears in the screen. Here you can mention your Z GUI Status. It is not required to create all the menus manually instead of the there is button which is located in the screen next to blue i button. here you can click and select the standard interface. You can get all the menus as similar to standard. Like that you should create Menu Bar, Application Toolbar and Function Keys Menus. Then you can add your custom button in the Application tool bar button.
When you execute the Transaction VL10G and check your cusom menu button will appears. Once you click custom button only exit will trigger. Find the below code for your reference.
CODE
        loop at ct_postab assigning <fs>
                where selkz = 'X'.
*To Fill the BAPI Header Parameters
              str_ordhdr-ship_cond = w_sval-value.
*To Fill the BAPI HeaderX Parameters
              str_ordhdrx-updateflag = 'U'.
              str_ordhdrx-ship_cond = 'X'.
              call function 'BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE'
                exporting
                  salesdocument    = <fs>-vbelv
                  order_header_in = str_ordhdr
                  order_header_inx = str_ordhdrx
                tables
                  return           = str_return.
            endloop.
            read table str_return into w_return index 1.
            if sy-subrc eq 0.
              if not w_return-type = 'S'.
                message w_return-message type 'E'.
                leave to current transaction.
              endif.
            endif.
*Do the BAPI Commit
            call function 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
              exporting
                wait = 'X'.

How can I create a custom button for opening a form?

I have a parent form having child forms. In my main form I want to create custom buttons for opening child forms. I want to use master-detail form but there are more than one child forms, and in master-detail form I can only create one detail form. So I will create a form based on a table and in that form I will call the child forms by custom buttons. Can I do that?
Thanx,
Gulsah.

This can be easily done. First open up two instances of your Portal. In one window, you will need to go into your component you wish to link FROM. In the other window you will need to go into your component you wish to link TO. In the component you wish to link TO there will be a moduleid. Note this somewhere. Then, you will see an area that says: "Call Interface: Show". Click on this. (In the window you are linking to.). In this window, you will see a bunch of stuff. At the bottom you will see a URL call. This is the call you need to use. At the top, it explains each piece of the URL call. Just subsitute YOUR appropriate information into the URL call. In the form you wish to link FROM, create a button. Once you create this button, it will appear at the bottom, click on it and you will see an area to insert a Javascript. Click the onClick and insert:
//this is the variable you want to pass from one form to the other
get_field_name = getField(this.form,'COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE');
//this is so you can open the "child" form
window.open('/pls/cc_prod/DAD_NAME.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=MOD_ID_HERE&p_arg_names=_sessionid&p_arg_values=&p_arg_names=COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE&p_arg values='+GETFIELD_NAME+'&p_arg_names=_COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE_cond&p_arg_values=%3D');
In the fourth tab, where it says, "....before displaying form" insert the following: (This will tell the form how to handle the getField function.)
htp.p('<script language="JavaScript1.3">
< !--
function getField(form,fieldName)
var objName = "";
var tmp = "";
var dAction = "";
var sel_idx = 0;
var cnt = 0;
var instance = 0;
var slicedName;
var fillData = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i < form.length; i++)
slicedName = form.elements.name.split(".");
tmp = slicedName[2];
instance = parseInt(slicedName[3],10);
if (!tmp)
continue;
objName = tmp;
if (objName == fieldName)
return form.elements[i].value;
//-->
</script>');
I hope this helps.

How can I open a URL from a Custom Button in a second help window?

I have a custom button, which currently opens a URL in a web
browser, using a redirect page. How can I change this so that it
opens in a second help window instead? If I understand some of the
posts I've read, it is possible by linking the button to a related
topics function but I've no idea how this is done.
As usual, your help is most appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Hi, ecoulyn,
You need to make a topic file like the one below the target
of the Jump button.
The onLoad function on the Body start-tag causes the Related
Topics command to fire when the topic file is loaded in the topic
pane. When specifying the file name of the topic to display in the
secondary window, you must always prepend it with the name of your
.chm file, followed by "::/". Otherwise, an error message appears
when the Jump button is clicked.

How to create a custom Button in a SNP planning book

Hi Experts,
I created my own Planning Book and Dataview in SNP with 3 Key Figures: KF1, KF2, KF3. Now I want to create one my own button with Macro so that when I press that button, the Macro will run to calculate: KF3 = KF1 + KF2.
I know that I can drag this Macro to one of default events like: Default, Level Change, Start. But actually, I want to create my own button so that I can handle the event as I want.
My question are:
1. How to create a custom button on the toolbar of SNP Planning book and writing macro for the button?
2. Please give me any document, material teaching about writing macro and relating to my above scenario.
Thanks very much!
Duyennx
Edited by: xuanduyen on Sep 6, 2011 9:20 AM

Hi,
Access the transaction "/n/sapapo/advm". In the list select your planning book/ data view and click 'Start Macro Builder' button.
In the Macro builder screen, drag and drop your macro from Macro depot to the work area.
Right click on your macro name and select 'properties'. In the pop up, next to the Assigned Push button field, there is a button 'Choose'. Click that. It will display all the available icons. In standard system, it displays more than 1000 icon. Choose any one icon which is suitable for your macro function. Close the pop up and save the macro. This will assign a push button to your macro.
In the Planning book tool bar, you can see the selected icon in the header tool bar. Just by clicking that icon, you can execute the macro interactively.
And I don't know whether we can include/design our own icon. But there are already 1000+ standard icons to choose.

How to add a custom button in WD screen to call a workflow in siebel?

Hi All,
We have a requirement to have a custom button at the summary screen(after the rule execution) "Create Opportunity", on clicking on it a new opportunity record should be created in Siebel. As we know the "Save" link calls "PolicyAutomationSaveSession" inbound web service method and saves the information in session table and we can modify the PreSession and PostSession workflows. But we are not sure how it calls the service method and where is the mapping defined.
Can you please help me on how to add a custom button and how to invoke a workflow in siebel side to implement this requirement?
Also is there any document which can help me to add a custom button in screen and to add the code behind the button?
Thanks in advance!!

Subhradeep,
Closing a Web Determinations window is essentially the same as closing any HTML window. It involves javascript, which you would have to add to the Web Determinations templates.
Essentially the javascript command to close a window is {{window.close}} or {{top.close}}
For timing, you might be able to use the setTimeout function of Javascript (see: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_win_settimeout.asp)
At the risk of exposing exactly how bad my javascript skills are, I have attached a super-simple html fragment, a page that closes itself after 3 seconds. It may help you get started in the right direction. In general closing a window is a fairly dubious activity and is often not permitted by certain browsers. This html page at least works in Internet Explorer.
<html>
     <head>
     <script language="JavaScript">
          setTimeout(closeMe, 3000);
          function closeMe() {
               alert("This window will close");
               top.close();
     </script>
     </head>
     <body><B>This window will close in three seconds</B></body>
</html>

Add Alt Attribute Info to a Custom Button

I have created an alternative to editing the
“whtbar.js” file to give an image alt attribute
information. We have a custom button in our help file that needed
alt information, but we had already incorporated the text into the
button’s image and did not want to add the text label. We
also did not like the visual border treatment that adding a text
label did to the button.
I wrote this JavaScript function that will not only
accomplish this, but it will also capture the functionality that
RoboHelp creates for the OnClick event handler and duplicates it in
an OnKeyPress event handler for that same button. I have
successfully tested this script in both IE (IE 6.0) and Mozilla
(Firefox 1.5), and it appears to work fine.

The OP probably tried to attach it to their post, but it was stripped by the forum software. Hopefully they can show a screenshot image (using the camera icon in the web interface) to display the coding.

If I follow you, no. That's the way it works. The buttons are composited with the background so become part of it. I'd rethink the design.
Basically, you don't want the highlights to determine the color of unselected buttons. You'll always have fringes and jaggies. Having a non-transparent color set for the unselected state kind of does what you want, but won't look the best.
