Customized Iview in Navigation panel

Hello all,
I have created a customized iview and would like to place it in the Desktop innerpage navigation Panel. It appeared once but after some modification when i tried to insert it above the portal favorites, its not appearing in the preview and giving an error page not found, also all the user who have this desktop assigned(Using framework which i am modifying now)to them are getting the same page not found error. Kindly tell me is it permissible to place customize iviews in the innerpage Navigation Panel or some settings must have to be made to achieve this.
Thanks and Regards,
Sarabjeet Singh.

Hi,
You can cahnge the width of the navigation panel by changing the value of "defaultExpWidth" in the file WAandNAVPanel.js that is in the default layout par file com.sap.layouts.framework.par from 220 pixels to the value you want.
upload the changed par file and restart the server.

Custom iView in Navigation Panel has no left spacing

Hi all,
I have a custom iView that I want to have in the left Navigation Panel.
However, unlike the Detailed Navigation and the Portal Favourites iView -- which have approx 10px spacing to the left -- my custom iView has no spacing at all, i.e. it is positioned immediately against the browser chrome...
At first I thought it had something to do with the CSS and/or DIV's inside that iview, so I tested with the most basic HTML inside DynPage, JSPDynPage and AbstractPortalComponent iViews, showing only text, but to my surprise ALL have no spacing to the left...
Furthermore, it's not only the content of the iView that has no spacing, but the complete tray including the titlebar is all the way to the left....
Has anyone seen this behaviour and knows how to circumvent?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance

Hi Robin
To achieve this insert a spacer image in the html text.Create a cloumn in left side and place this spacer image which matches with the background color and make the valign ="top" for the column.
This code you add in the jspdyn page .Here you can give the width for the left area and as well for the image. Based on that empty space will be created on the left side.
This spacer image can created easily, just take a screen shot and paste in mspaint and crop small part from that screen with matching bg color and save the image with and use it.If you have photo shop installed it will be very easy.
Hope this helps you.....

Customizing: Adding an action to the Navigation panel

Hello,
A customer has asked me to add an action based on a webdynpro component to the Navigation panel.
He provided me with the component name, the package and the url.
I already figured out that this has to be done in SPRO > SAP xApp Resource and Portfolio Management (SAP xRPM) > Global Customizing > Process and Service Settings > Define Navigation, but i have no clue how to add this action based on the information i have.
Could anybody give me a hint or a link to some good documentation about this topic.
Any help will be apreciated
Regards,
Magnus

make use of ActionMap and ImageMap:
//the action
Action theAction = new AbstractAction("New") {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
//do action
//accelerator for action
theAction.putValue(AbstractAction.ACCELERATOR_KEY, KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("control N"));
//input map and action map from table
InputMap im = table.getInputMap(JTable.WHEN_FOCUSED);
ActionMap am = table.getActionMap();
am.put("New", theAction);
im.put((KeyStroke)theAction.getValue(Action.ACCELERATOR_KEY), "New");

IViews are not updated in customized top level navigation

Hi experts,
I am working on External Facing Portal. I developed customized top level navigation. The problem is that the content area of External Facing portal is not refreshed. Although, i can see different navigationURLs but content area iView remains same. For testing purpose, i assigned role (which i created for anonymous access) to a new portal user. All pages/ivews/ for that role are working fine and content area is also updated when i click on different navigation. Remember that is standard portal not anonymous. It means through myserver:50100/irj/protal?NavigationTarget=navurl://cb0c473832f39033f88904647de63252 all navigation is working fine including content area but when i access External Facing Portal through myserver:50100/irj/protal/anonymous?NavigationTarget=navurl://cb0c473832f39033f88904647de63252 navigationURLs is updated but the content area remains same. Content area contains 1 page and page itself contains 1 iVew. I assigned that light page to Light Framework page.
Do i need to implement navigation connectors for that issue or i miss something?
waiting for your response.
regards
Abbas

Have you tried disabling the iView caching (check the iView and page properties). Your browser and proxy server (as you mention it is external facing) may also be caching the content, hence the reason when you use your user ID and the Java restart occurs everything is reset correctly.
I know when doing Visual Composer developments that SAP EP caches the Function Module interfaces and that in the development environment I needed to change parameters in Visual Admin for the VC component lifetime to handle these. It could well be that you are referencing components that have lifetime keep alive set for them in the environment too. Refer to the API / SDK documentation if you suspect this could be the case for you too.
What exactly is the iView in the content area doing? Is it just a transactional iView or is it a custom iview?
If you can perhaps try putting on an http trace or monitor the NWA logs to determine if any issues exist. You Java VM may also require some more fine tuning in the external facing scenario - the GC may not be collecting items efficiently.

Navigation Panel of the Portal ITSbased service iviews to come in Diff.Lang

Hello Everybody,
We have a ITS based ESS services, in that we have to get the services in the language selected by the user in the browser. i.e., if he selects French, the iviews should come in French. So, the problem here is iviews are all coming in the browser language(i.e, French,German or English etc...). But the Navigation Panel which contains the list of the iviews is not getting converted into the selected language, It is still coming in English. which is the master language of the iview.
If anybody has any idea on how to correct this. Please help.
Thanks & Regards,
Ravi

No they are not standard iviews, They are IAC iviews created by us with some transaction codes.
When the language is changed in the browser or with the user in UME, the iview content is coming in that language in the portal content area, but in the navigation panel where all the list of the iviews will appear. that list is coming in English only. the list of iviews means the list of names of the iviews we created.
Thanks & Regards,
Ravi

Created Role ( X and Y ) and respective iviews
With Framework page:
I copied standard framework page. made all iviews invisible except Desktop Innerpage.
I opend the Innerpage. I made all all iviews invisible except the Content Area.
With Desktop:
I create new desktop and assigned the new framework page to deaktop and made it default.
With Rule Collection: I created new rule collection where:
if Role = Y
display: new desktop
if role = X
display: default desktop
Result:
when I login with role X it shows default Desktop
Problem Area: When i login with ROLE Y, No portal feature is visible But We can still Expand and collapse Navigation panel.
Requirement: I do not want the user should see the navigation panel. It should not be visible on screen even though it is empty.
I tried lots almost all properties. Please help.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Aditya Deshpande

hi;
Then you have to create Role Y without workset or Page only with iViews, so no Navigation will be generated. :h1
But if you habe Workset and Page in your role , just go to all Page and workset and set this properties>navigation>Invisible in Navigation Areas to false.
I Hoppe it will help
Take care

DTN-dynamic height of the navigation panel is not increasing

Hi All,
I'm having an issue in DTN panel.As the Dynamic Navigation Tree increases the visibility of links diminishes.
I tried increasing the height of DTN panel in theme editor but it is not helping the cause.
Ex:
Parent1
   link 1
   link2
   link3
Parent2
link1
link2
link3
Parent3
link1
link2
In the above example when all the "parents" are expanded then the links under Parent3 are not properly visible.
Please help me out in this issue.
Thanks,
Pradeep

Hi,
Was the custom detailed level navigation working earlier in terms of the expected height adjustment with clear visibility of child nodes?
If not, suggest you to see if following things might work for you.
1. Revert the Height property changes on custom DLN and make them similar to the Standard DLN.
2. Verify the Custom DLN CSS used. Because it's the CSS that would be majorly controlling the styling and visualization of the UI elements on the DLN iView. And this should be place to see why the child nodes are shown in diminished size when parent nodes are expanded.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Swapna Priya.

Navigation Panel not showing up the links

Good Afternoon SAP Experts,
After applying support package 20, portal is not showing the links on navigation panel when accessed by an regular user. However, if you access portal with a super admin user the links appears.
It's important to say that this is occuring just on Default Framework (We also have the Light Framework running and it works well). We already checked the roles, worksets, pages and iViews permissions and couldnt found any problem. We checked also the frameworks, and it's everything ok.
Some important items:
- We have a customized default framework page.
- We have a custom theme.
- The issue is happening with the customized components, however we did the tests on the standard components and the same error occurred.
My System:
J2EE Engine 6.40 PatchLevel 108290.313
Portal 6.0.20.0.0
Does anyone can help me to find a solution or already experiencied something like this?
Thanks so much,

Change Navigation panel language

I am configuring portal content, my portal has abap ume , a customized desktop, portal roles and iviews, as usual, portal users have espanish language, and sap backend users too; Nevetheless in the navigation panel appear the texts "Deatailed Navigation" and "Portal Favorites", instead of "Navegación detallada" and "Favoritos de Portal" what could it be? ... 20 points for your help!!!
Greetings

Hi Rolando,
Seems like there is some issue with Portal Translation WorkList i.e. the Detailed Navigation iView and Portal Favourite iView is not added in Translation Worklist where conversion of language is done.
Function of Portal Translation Worklist is to take care of conversions from one language to another(like in your case it is to change from English to Spanish).
Couple of thing needs to be done from you are:
1.   Identify the Desktop which is responsible for rendering this screen and then try to figure out the
      iView (Detailed Navigation and Portal Favourites).
2.   Create a Translation Worklist and add the iViews into it and follow the steps mentioned in the PDF
      file, you will get on accessing the below link.

Please let me know the status of the issue.

Navigation panel - how to turn it on?

Hi,
We had a SP16 NW2004 running. We applied SP17 patch to our netweaver 2004 portal server.
We lost the navigation panel after applying SP17 to our server. As a result several of the users are facing the difficulty of navigating to the appropriate collaboration rooms.
Would anybody know how to get the navigation bar back.
Thank You.
Sumit.

Copy the original framework page (located in : Content Provided by SAP> End User Content> Standard portal Users ) to where you have you custom one and add it to your desktop.
The Framework page is used for the whole portal; there are just not all parts active on all pages (e.g.Related Rooms or My Rooms Dropdown Menu in your Rooms).
If you just want to add certain iviews go to : Content Provided by SAP> Admin Interfaces > Admin iView Templates.
I advise to just copy the SAP Framework page and rename it (including the ID).

Kai

Change the order within the navigation panel

Hi everybody,
within my navigation panel i have two iview, the detail navigation and an own iView (Web Dynpro within the dynamic navigation of a page). Until now the detail navigation appears at the first position in the navigation panel. How can i change the order within the navigation panel so that my own iView will be shown at the first position?
regards,
Sid

Hi Raji,
iviews can be ordered alphabetical. You can set this function in Systemadministration -> Service-Konfiguration -> Applications -> com.sap.portal.ivs.iviewservice -> iViewsSrv. Then you can set this value to ture (sorting true).
You can also change the sort-priority value in the property of each iview to 0..n.
I hope this will help you.

Can we achieve Vertical Collapsable trayOREnlarge Navigation Panel Feature

Hi All,
To overcome horizontal scroll issue of diffrerent sections of page, we thought
a) Vertical Collapsable tray feature [like Collapsable tray we have - which gets shrinked of vertical height but horizontal width still retained]
b) Enlarge Navigation Panel Feature - [like we have: Having 2 arrow marks which help to shrink or expand navigation panel of portal ]
c) Collapsable Navigatiop Panel- Expand Navigation Panel
Can we achieve any of above features by custom development or is there any standard reuse component.
Please guide.
Regards,
Ganga

hi all
lets leave the above requirement aside.
even if that works, it won't solve my purpose because
i found that even if i get the gp's Contextual Panel / Process Activies Panel in a collapsable window
or i hide the it, this won't appear in the collapsable window or get hidden when i initiate the process using the generated URL.
As per my requirement, i need a URL which will initiate a new GP process and doesn't show
Contextual Panel / Process Activies Panel on the left side.
But the generated URL doesn't hide it.
I think there should be some additional parameter which I should pass along the URL and the started process won't show the Contextual Panel / Process Activies Panel.
If anyone knows how to get rid of Contextual Panel / Process Activies Panel, please reply.
Thanks & Regards
Vivek
