Detailed Navigation gets cleared on clicking any node element

Hi All,
I have created a custom framework page by modifying the SAP standard Framework Page. Also I have customized the Top Level Navigation .
The problem is when I click on any node element in the Detailed Navigation, the entire Detailed Navigation gets cleared (greyed out) and no node elements are displayed. Any idea why this is happening?
Any kind of help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Adren

Is it a query region or a custom search region? What is the code written to null the date fields?
Is there any flow where the values are retained?

Expand all folders in the detailed navigation by default on click of Role

Hi All,
I have a requirement on expand all the folders in the detailed navigation by defalut when we click a Role in the Fist level navigation.
Please have a look about our requirement as mentioned below.
->Role1(First Level Navigation)
   ->Wokset1(Second Level)
       -> Folder1(Detailed Navigation entry Folder)
              -> Folder2
                   Page1
                   Page2
              ->Folder3
                   Page3
                   Page4
              -> Folder4
                   Page5
                   Page6
When the user clicks on Role1 then automatically all the folders in the detailed navigation should be expanded by default then user could see all the pages displayed in all folders. currently the functionality is collapsed all the folders by default in the detailed navigation then user has to expand the folders manually.
Regading this issue, i had seen couple of threads on the same but getting confusion what is the exact solution for the solution.
in those existing threads some people has mentioned that need to change code in the lightdetailnavigation.par or some other mentioned that it is not worked out even do the required changes in the code of light detail navigation part file. there is no clarity in the existing threads for getting the exact solution . please let me know what are the properties needs to be changed at folder level or workset level to make sure all the folders should be expanded by default in the detailed navigation??
Currently we are using portal 7.0 version.
Any pointers in this regard would be the great help to us??
Thanks in advance.

PortalUser

Hi,
To expand all the folder by default, we need to set the property of the detailed navigation tree.
Open your framework page in the content administration.
Check on the detailed navigation check box and click on the properties button.
In the properties, set the value of initial state= OPEN .
This will expand all the folders by default.
Hope you understood.

So the f:selectItems list is empty in the next request. Rewrite your bean code so that it prefills the list in the constructor or initialization block or even by lazy loading in the getter of the f:selectItems.

Expand folders in Detail Navigation by default

Has anyone figured out a way to have the folders in details navigation expanded by default the first time the user clicks on the tab?
I tried this:
Expand all folders in the detailed navigation by default on click of Role
But it didn't work for me. I have seen other claims that it can be set desktop wide, but no solution.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Clark

Prathamesh,
First of all thanks so much for your suggestion. It would have worked perfectly if I was using the lightweight version of the detail navigation. But is did lead me to download the code for the detail navigation tree par file and I found some interesting things.
First of all this should work by changing a parameter on the iview according to the code I found. See the code below (particularly the set state line).
    private void openFolder(IPortalComponentRequest request, HashMap dropJScriptsMap, ITree tree, INavigationNode node, ITreeNode treeNode)
        if(treeNode == null)
            return;
        IPortalComponentContext componentContext = request.getComponentContext();
        IPortalComponentProfile profile = componentContext.getProfile();
        Boolean leafNode = null;
        try
            leafNode = (Boolean)node.getAttributeValue("com.sap.portal.navigation.IsLeaf");
            if(leafNode == null)
                leafNode = Boolean.FALSE;
        catch(NoSuchAttributeException ex)
            leafNode = Boolean.FALSE;
        String openFolder = profile.getProperty("com.sap.portal.navigation.detailedtree.openfolder");
        if(openFolder.equals("true") && leafNode != Boolean.TRUE)
            treeNode.setState("o");
            addNavNodeChildrenToTree(request, tree, node, dropJScriptsMap, true);
But it only looks to work if the folder is at the top level. Otherwise it rights children as closed. See the line for setState in method addNavigationNodesToTree.
            if(newNode.getVisualizationType() == 2)
                if(parentNode != null)
                    treeNode = tree.addNode(nodeName, title, "F", parentNode);
                else
                    treeNode = tree.addRoot(nodeName, title, "F");
                treeNode.setState("c");
                treeNode.setFolderOpenImage(mm_folderImageUrl);
                treeNode.setFolderCloseImage(mm_folderImageUrl);
            } else
So I really have 2 options. I can redeploy new code with the line just above changed (I didn't plan on modifying the SAP delivered), or I can move my nodes up to a higher level and change the parameters on the iview.
I hope others might find this useful and perhaps SAP will adopt another iview parameter in the future to completely allow for this as it seems pretty trivial.
Thanks again.

Hi All,

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 <b>Portal Users-> Standard Portal Users.</b> This folder contains the <b>Default Framework Page</b>.
   2.Right-click <b>Default Framework Page</b> and choose <b>Open->Object</b>.
   3.From the Page Content List select the <b>Top-Level Navigation iView</b> and click <b>Properties</b>.
   4.Scroll to the <b>Number of Display Levels</b>property and enter the value 0, 1, or 2, depending on how many navigation levels, if any, you want for top-level navigation.
     <u><b><i>Choosing 0 removes your top-level navigation and displays your navigation structure in the Detailed Navigation iView.</i></b></u>
   5.Click Save.
2 Configure Detailed Navigation
1.From the Page Content List of the <b>Default Framework Page</b>, select <b>Desktop Innerpage</b> and click Open.
2.From the Page Content List of the <b>Desktop Innerpage</b> select the <b>Detailed Navigation iView</b> and click <b>Properties.</b>
3.Scroll to the <b>Start at Level property</b> and assign a value that is one higher than the value of the <b>Number of Display Levels</b> 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.
    <u><i><b>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.</b></i></u>
III. Configure the Content Area
   1.From the Page Content List of the <b>Desktop Innerpage</b>, select the <b>Content Area</b> iView and click <b>Properties.</b>
   2.Scroll to the <b>Number of Display Levels in TLN</b> property and enter the same value as that of the <b>Number of Display Levels</b> property in procedure I. Configure Top-Level Navigation.
   3.Click Save.
These steps will make ur Portal the way u want, i guess.

Bobu

Fixing the detailed navigation view.

Hi
We all know that we can expand or shrink the detailed navigation view. Is there any way to make the detailed naviagtion view immovable I mean it should have fixed width and it cannot be expanded or shrinked.
Thanks in advance
Srikant

Hi DV,
We can remove the expansion and shrinking of the navigation panel by removing the navigation panel header, using the theme editor. U cannot remove it as such but u can reduce the size to a minimum so that it wont be visible at all.
The detailed navigation panel is an iview. It can be found in PCD>>Portal Users>>Std Portal Users>>Default Frame work page>>Desktop inner page. There u cna see the detailed navigation panel and u can edit its properties over there.
Hope this Helps

Detailed navigation panel doesn't show the link

Hi,
I created a role and I put an existing workset in it (delta link) but I removed 3 iviews out of 4 from the workset.
When I check the same workset in another role I see 4 links for 4 ivews in detailed navigation panel.
However I don't see any link in my new role's detailed navigation panel for the ivew.
I compared all the properties settings and saw no difference. Does anybody know how do i see my iview in detailed navigational panel?
I appreciate any help with points,
Regards

Hi Mike,
Newrole1 : New Role that you created.
Workset1: Existing workset
iv1 existing iviews for the workset.
iv2
iv3
iv4
But you have only iv4 assigned to your NewRole1 that you created( delta linking the workset1 and removing 3 iviews)
But the iv4 does not exist under your role?
You can try checking the permissions on this iview.
Also, did you try checking with a different user being assigned the role or the same user using the exisiting workset.
Regards,
Sandeep Tudumu

How to Display Detailed navigation passing Top level navigation node name

Hi All,
I have prepared a DLN par file but unfortunatly my requirement is such that I need to pass one of the toplevel node name as input parameter and that should display the corresponding DLN which is from 3rd level.
I have checked in sdn for passing a value to the navigation tag lib which will consider it as a selectednode but could find none.
Can some body suggest me how to acheive this.
Thanks in Advance.
Sai Krishna. K

Hi Kiran,
Thanks for your Reply..
Following is my Scenario:
I use 2 same versions of portals connected via federated portal concept.
I have my detailed navigation par file in portal2 and was calling it from portal1 from a iview.
Since I am not physically navigating in portal2(which mean there is no selected node to iterate ), when I call that iview in portal1 it is picking up only 1st node in top level navigation.
So i need to pass "My reports" (as 1st level) & "India" (as 2nd level) as parameters such that it gets only its DTN at all times from 3rd level.
Hope you understand my scenario, below is my iteration code logic.
<div id="myslidemenu" class="jqueryslidemenu">
<ul>
     <nav:iterateSelectedNavNodesLevel level="<%=START_LEVEL%>">
     <%-- the 'currentDepth' attribute provides the byte value of the current level --%>
    <nav:recurseNavNodeChildren currentDepth="depth">
         <% current = start + depth.intValue() - 1; %>
         <%=writeClosingTags(last - current)%>
         <%
        last = current;
        %>
        <%-- we want to distinguish between folder and leaf nodes so we can use different graphics --%>
          <%-- complete the html syntax for the 'class' attribute pass it as an anchor attribute--%>
          <li><nav:navNodeAnchor navigationMethod="byURL" />
          <%-- checks for additional navigation level and the appropriate html tags to accomodate them --%>
        <nav:ifNextRecursionDepthWillIncrease>
            <ul>
        </nav:ifNextRecursionDepthWillIncrease>
        <nav:ifNextRecursionDepthWillNotChange>
            </li>
        </nav:ifNextRecursionDepthWillNotChange>
    </nav:recurseNavNodeChildren>
    <%=writeClosingTags(last - start)%>
    <% last = start; %>
</nav:iterateSelectedNavNodesLevel>
</ul>
</div>
As per the passing parameter concept please explain me a bit more clear with step by step procedure.
<b>Here if not passing parameters, providing static values will also do for my requirement.</b>
Many Thanks,
Sai Krishna.

How can i control which iView gets updated when a nav node gets clicked?

Hello,
Following setting: the content area of the desktop inner page inside the default frameworkpage usually consist of just one iView.
But what happens when there are 3 iViews inside? How do i have to call the pageloader which of the 3 iViews should get updated when a nav node of the detailed navigation is clicked?
Thanx

Hi
Since you will be using the Merger Id property, they will be linked to a single link in navigational area.
Refreshing a page / clicking the link in navigation Pane will result in refreshing of all the iViews.

Detailed Navigation expand node

Hi everyone,
I've been trying to open by default the first node in my Detailed Navigation. I have come very close using the following code which I placed in an iView:
response.write("<SCRIPT>");
response.write("var all = window.DetailedNavigationTree.getNodes();n" +
               "dynamicLoad(all[0]);");
response.write("</SCRIPT>");
This causes the node to be open when you first click in the TLN.
I can close the node by clicking either on the text or on the down arrow next to the node. Now, if I click on the arrow again, the node opens fine, BUT when I click on the text again the node does not reload.
Anyone have any ideas why or how to work around this problem?
I've been looking at detailedNavTree.js, dynamicTree.js and dynamicLoad.js .
Any help would be appreciated a lot!
Thank you,
Regards,
Ale

Everyone,
I have found the solution. The issue was that when we clicked on the text in the detailed nav, the whole page would refresh. This would cause the menu to expand but then the iView with the dynamicLoad() was called again and automatically collapsed the menu again!
So i added a boolean in the class which makes the dynamicLoad() execute only the first time the iView is loaded.
     private boolean mDone = false;
    public void doContent(IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response)
         if(!mDone) {
               response.write("<SCRIPT>");
               response.write("var all = window.DetailedNavigationTree.getNodes();n" +
                    "dynamicLoad(all[0]);");
               response.write("</SCRIPT>");
               mDone = true;
Hope this helps!

Help with Detail Navigation Node Landing Page

Hi, When a user clicks on a Detail Navigation Node I have a landing page that says "Welcome to the <Text> Report Area>. I have a different page for each DTN node so right now I'm maintaining quite a few landing pages.
I'd like to have 1 dynamic page that says welcome to "Node Text". Where the Node Text is the text of the detail navigation node they selected.
Does anyone know if this is possible to pull off?
Thanks, Ken Murray

Below is what your HTML should look like.
<div id='welcomemessage'></div>
<scripta>
document.getElementById('welcomemessage') innerhtml = 'Welcome to' + EPCM.getSAPTop().document.title;
</scripta>
Replace the scripta with script above, since if I put the script out there this forum throws some exception.
Also add a . and remove the space before innerhtml because even doing so the forum is throwing error. SAP needs to get there act together at least on forum and not blindly filter certain characters.

Mouse over of detailed navigation nodes?

Hello EP Development Gurus,
I am in need of displaying some text on the mouse over of the detailed navigation nodes. How can I achieve this? Where can i find the java script code relating to it?
Helpful answers will definitely be rewarded. please help me.
Thank you all in advance.
best regds,
Alagammai.

Hi Harish,
Thank you for your immediate reply.
I think even if I create a full paged iView, the navigation panel will be there.
I don't want the left side navigation inside the content area.
In the existing default navigation panel, i need to display some mouse-over text.
To be exact, I need the par file that contains the javascripting relating to the detailed navigation part. I checked in par files like <b>com.sap.portal.navigation.detailedtree</b> and <b>com.sap.portal.layouts.framework</b>. But no use. I am not able to find the relevant code there.
If I am not clear, please get back to me.
best regds,

SAP Web Page Composer: Detailed Navigation is not getting built

Hello!
I am new at this forum. At first I´d like to say hello to everybody! :]
Our issue concerns the following:
We started to work mit the Web Page Composer to build websites für our workers. Everything worked fine until the detailed WPC-navigation is not getting built anymore. We have this issue after a portal restart. Every steps to build and publish a website were done the right way.
1. Publish navigation und paste it to the external connector of the role in the form "wpcnavigation:///wpcontent..."
2. Permissions and security zones were set. Even the super admin is not able to see the detaild navigation anymore.
It is still possible to put single webpages to iViews and then to display them in the portal. And every function of the Web Page Composer works fine. The caches are deactivated. I tried to build a new site with new pages and a new navigation but there is the same problem, no detailed navigation is shown in the portal navigation. The role is assigned to a user and he can see the role at the top navigation but when clicking on it no detailed navigation appears, just a blank page.
As I mentioned this iusse appears after a portal restart. What could be the problem?
Thank you in advance!
Best regards
Georg

Hello Sandeep!
I created a new role and also did the Initial Configurations but it still does not work. May be there is a problem with the external connector where I connect the WPC navigation with the portal navigation? I know it sounds confusing but is there may be a way I could "reset" the WPC configuration? Because at the moment I tried to merge roles the system saved "some configuration" and started to avoid displaying the detailed navigation. So if could delete/reset/change this configuration, it could be that the navigation will be displayed again? I do not unterstand, if I just use one role and so avoid merging roles it just should work again? Or I am on the wrong way? Hopefully I am not telling bull**** right now! :]
At this moment our system running SAP NetWeaver 7.00 SP18. The patch is only available at least SAP NetWeaver 7.00 SP20. We are probably going to upgrade in october to SAP NetWeaver 7.00 SP23 and then we can update the WPC, too. Our Basis said, I have to wait till october. Before this upgrade no updates will be done.
Thanks for your help so far!
Kind regards!
Georg
