Detailed navigation wont remove completely

Hi,
I've been through all the threads on SDN and as a result have removed all but the content area from my default framework page and set the 'set to invisible in navigation parameters' to yes for all the iviews in the role.
However I'm facing two issues.
Firstly, for all ESS screens the small right arrow 'expand' icon remains present for the detailed navigation window. Clicking on it will open a blank window which is not ideal. Can anyone advise how to remove the navigation window completely so that the expand arrow does not appear?
Secondly, rather randomly, for the family member depenendents page the detailed navigation appears as expanded despite being set to 'always close' in the view properties within the role (all other pages are fine). Can anyone advise how to overcome this?
Thanks
Phil

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

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.

Remove Detailled Navigation on certain page?

Hi all,
I would like not to remove detailled navigation at all, but on a certain page.
It´s the page, which appears when you click "personalize" in the masthead area.
Somebody know, how to do this?
Best regards
Davor

Hi,
You can delete the detailed Navigation iView from the Framework page which will remove it permanently.
But in case you want this to appear/disappear only on few pages then the only option provided in Portal configurations is to change the property Initial State of Navigation Panel in the corresponding Views.

Removing Detailed Navigation Section

Hi,
I have a few WD applications running on the server. For certain applications, the Detailed Navigation Link section in the Portal is undesirable.
Please provide your valuable inputs on how can I remove the Detailed Navigation Link Section in portal for certain WD applications.
Thanks and Regards,
Sayan Ghosh

Hi,
There is one property for the PCD objects:
Initial State - Open or Closed
By default, this property will be open. Based upon your requirement, you can make it closed for those PCD objects for which you do not want detailed navigation.

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.

Portal Favorites iview always appear in detailed navigation

Hello,
I have a problem regarding the Detailed Navigation with the Portal Favorites iview.
The iview always appears in the Detailed Navigation, although the only thing it shows is the message "there are no items to display" (meaning that there are no favorites). This causes the detailed navigation to always appear even when there is no need for it (no navigation links and no other content attached to it).
I tried removing the Portal Favorites iview (because we don't use that iview in the portal and have no need for it) from the innerpage of the default framework page, and it works, but after the next restart of the portal, the iview returns.
Is there any way to remove it completely so that it won't appear again?
We're running EP7 SP14.
Thanks in advance,
Tal.

Hi,
Create a new framework page by creating a delta link of the original page and then modify that framework page.
Also you will have to create a new portal desktop and use the modified page and also set the desktop rules accordingly.

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

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.

1.go in portal_content/portal_users/standard_portal_users
2.open default frame work page unclick the top_level_navigation

Different links in the detailed navigation, based on URL alias

<u>What I'm trying to do :</u>
Based on URL aliases /irj/portal/individual or /irj/portal/business
I will dynamically add an UME group to the already logged in user.
<u>Filter :</u>
If clicking on /irj/portal/individual I will store "group=individual" in the context, and add UME group individual, if clicking /irj/portal/business I will store "group=business" in the context, and add UME group business and remove individual, and then redirect to the same URL.
<u>Configuration</u>
Each UME group has a one-to-one mapping to a Portal role.
I will place an ACL on the PCD content, based on group, hiding/showing aggregated folders, hanging under the roles.
<u>Wanted end-result</u>

Hi sunil,
Create a JSPDynPage component(C) having 2 hbj:link whose hrefs point to these 2 iViews(A and B). U can get the href of the iView by previewing it(for A and B). Create an iview from the par component (C) and add it to the DLN so that it shows the links to ur iViews(A and B). U can make the Show Tray property of this iView (C) to false.

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.

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.

How to change label of Detailed Navigation

Hello Forum Friends,
I have en EP 6.0 on WAS 640 SP19 on Netweaver 2004 , and I have structured a navigation hierarchy with a 2 level Top Level Navigation and with a third level in the Detailed Navigation, so that the third level constructs itself in the Detailed Navigation. But I need to figure out if I can change the label of the Detailed Navigation Iview, this is if I have in the Detailed navigation nodes relating to years, instead of having the Detailed Navigation Name in the name of the iview it displays Years as label, also in another page if the nodes in the Detailed Navigation are related to (for example) months, it displays Months in the Detailed Navigation iview name , since my boss doesn't want to see the label Detailed Navigation, but he want to have a label related to the content that is displaying.
I don't know if I can change someting dinamically with the Detailed Navigation Iview to have this behavior or if you can provide another workaround for having this behavior.
Thanks in advance
Luis
Rewarding point will be given.

Hi Luis,
The non-programming way to do this is the following:
1. Make Deltalink or hard Copy of the DTN and place them in you customer specific namespace. Do this for every title you need.
Lets say for this example 3 (Year, Month and Week)
2. Rename the iViews as you want (Year, Month and Week)
3. Add these DTN iviews as Dynamic navigation iViews to a all the pages that they need to be visible with.
If you don't have all the content yet you could better create a page template and add the renamed iView to the different Page Templates. Then create the pages based on these templates. Saves time when you need to change something in the future
4. Create a copy of you Frameworkpage and remove the default DTN of it.
5. Assign this framework/desktop to everyone who needs these "special labeled DTN"
I hope you get what I mean with this... If you want to do this with programming you could remodel the SAP DTN or build your own DTN based on TAG libraries.
Good Luck,
Benjamin Houttuin

Remove completed items in notes

There seems to be a way to remove completed items in the To Do view through mail, but not in the Notes view under the reminders folder. Any idea how to make that happen?
If you don't use the Notes feature to create events, then you are very limited in terms of adding detail (bullet lists, etc.), so I am creating all To Do items as notes.
If anyone knows of good apps that will add functionality into Mail/Notes/To Do (not stand alone apps) that allow more complexity (such as sub-items) and flexibility, I would love to know about it.

Use notes in vertical position (portrait)

How to merge top level navigation into detail navigation panel.

Hi All,
I want to add all the contents of top level navigation into detail navigation panel and remove top level navigation.I am looking for the code with which i can shift the top level navigation to detail level navigation.

You could edit the top-level navigation iview and set the <b>Number of Display levels</b> property's value to 0.
you can reach the Top-level navigation iview by going through the following path
1) <b>Content Administration --> Portal Content --> Content Provided by SAP --> Admin Interfaces --> Top-level navigation</b>
However, note that once you do this the whatever menus that are available in the top level will not be available anymore.
Maybe, you could copy the standard Top-level navigation into a framework page that you have created and then make the change. After doing so, you can assign it to groups/roles you want. This will ensure that the CONTENT/SYSTEM/USER administrators see the normal portal framework and specific user groups alone dont see the Top level navigation..

Detailed Navigation is closed by default

Hi,
The Portal with all packages is running fine in test system.
The first Page (welcome) is displaying some KM-News in the content section and has some links in the detailed navigation (DTN).
Then, I exported the ivies/pcd with all roles etc. to the production system.
Now, whatever value I put in "Initial Display" in the roles (Automatic/Open), the first time, the user logs on, the DTN is completely close. If if reload the page, everything is fine and the DTN is open.
I also checked the default framework page, but it is set to "OPEN" as well.
No clue no more.
Thanks for any help
