Discoverer Plus : Printing title issue

Hi,
Page title doesn't print all the time. Sometimes it's printed and sometimes it's not without changing anything in the report!
Do you know why?

Are you talking about printing out of Discoverer Plus? I am thinking you are, because you did not mention Discoverer Viewer nor Discoverer Desktop versions. I have noticed the same thing happening myself. Have not bothered to report this to support, since most of the time the workbooks will be executed in Discoverer Viewer, where the printing seems to be okay. You may want to check your print setup to make sure you have specified to print the heading, and if you want on every page or just on the first page, just in case you have not considered this possibility. Hope this helps a bit.

Discoverer Plus 10g Title & Table Viewing Size

Is there a way to increase the screen resolution of the title and table area in Discoverer Plus 10g? The font size says 10pt, but on the screen it looks more like 4pt. I couldn't find any settings in Plus to change it. Thanks, Amy.

Cause
By default in Discoverer Plus 10.1.2 fonts are rendered smaller in Java
than in other Windows applications.
Already saved workbooks will not have any change in font and formats even if
your default fonts are changed unless these workbooks are explicitly opened and
modified for using new fonts. The cause for this behavior is that when
workbooks are saved, font information is also along with it. This is very lengthy approach if you have over 1,000 upgraded workbooks.
Solution
To implement the solution, for existing/upgraded workbooks please execute the following steps:
Set AdjustPlusFontSize = "True" in pref.txt file.
This setting will make Discoverer Plus to display the font size correctly. It specifies whether Discoverer Plus Relational adjusts the font size to correct a discrepancy in the Java virtual machine, resulting in a smaller font size than other Windows applications.
true = adjust font sizes
false = do not adjust font sizes
1.Navigate to <Discoverer Home>/discoverer/util directory.
2.Edit pref.txt file and modify the setting as
AdjustPlusFontSize = "true"
under [Application] section
3.Run the script applypreferences.sh

Discoverer Plus Title frame height is too small

The Discoverer Plus default title frame height is too small to display more than a couple of lines of the report titles without scrolling. Discoverer Viewer displays the entire title area. Is there any way to increase the default height of the title frame in Plus?
Thanks, Jim

There is a default hieght that the title frame occupies in Discoverer Plus. If I remember, the title frame by default will not use more than 15% of the available vertical space in the Plus window - again, not sure if this includes the browser chrome or not. You can drag and increase the size of this title frame such that it occupies more of the available screen real estate.
In Viewer, since the title is rendered as HTML - it will simply expand to show its entire contents.
thanks

Discoverer report print issues

Hi,
I have a peculiar issue in printing the Disco reports (plus).
version is Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer Plus 10g (10.1.2.48.18)
when i do a print preview it shows me a single page, but when i give a print it is printing in 2 pages and the font size is getting changed.
i tried with my logins on one my colleagues machine and it works fine for him.
can anyone please help me out with this.

Sounds like you have sometihng messed up on your PC. This is probably something you need to create a service request for with Oracle support. They would have the ability to look at your PC and your Discoverer install setup, which we cannot do in this forum. I have not had any problem printing myself. The fact that you print okay on another PC indicates something is messed up/conflicting on your PC.

Discoverer Plus not wrapping column headers on print

OracleBI Discoverer 10g (10.1.2.3)
Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer Plus 10g (10.1.2.55.26)
I'm having issues with a new workbok I created and can't quite figure out how to fix it. I have columns with the Format Heading\Wrap words in cell set on. The columns wrap fine and display as expected in the Discoverer Plus workbook window, but they don't wrap on printing to pdf or a physical printer. They display in the upper left of the column and run to the right until they get cut-off by the next column on the right.
For instance:
Preprocessing
Lead Time
shows as
Preprocessing Lea|<next column>
-Tracy

Well, I hate to say it, but you may have run across a bug in your version of Discoverer Plus. I am on 10.1.2.54.25 and the word wrap works just fine when printing a worksheet out of Discoverer Plus in that version. I even retested it just now just to verify, and it printed just fine, and the way you would want it to print. So my suggestion is that you log a service request for this issue with support and see what they say. Good luck.

Discoverer Plus - Problem with Page Orientation when printing pdf's

Hi,
When printing pdf's in Disco Plus I have a problem:
My workbooks are a mixture of landscape and portrait pages.
I am printing the entire workbook and then using cutepdf to produce a pdf.
If I print to paper I get the correct landscape/portrait settings.
If I print to pdf then landscape pages appear vertically when I view on screen so that the text is running from bottom to top of the page.
So it is picking up th portrait/landscape settings from the individual worksheets but cutepdf has not realised that the pages are landscape so they appear on the screen vertically.
This was not a problem on discoverer desktop so I am confident that this is not a problem with cutepdf.
Any thoughts?
Justin

Thanks 2257648922,
Version details are as follows:
OracleBI Discoverer 10g (10.1.2.3)
Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer Plus 10g (10.1.2.55.26)
Discoverer Model - 10.1.2.55.26
Discoverer Server - 10.1.2.55.26
End User Layer - 5.1.1.0.0.0
End User Layer Library - 10.1.2.55.26
Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
Copyright © 1999, 2005, Oracle. All rights reserved.
So I assume that means my version doesn't have the bug you mention.
Any other thoughts would be appreciated.

Discoverer Plus - How to include variable text in the Title

Hi,
I need to include a variable text in the report like the user information or another information i woul like to obtain from a query that is not the standars date,time,... oracle discoverer plus improves us.
I tried with calculations associates to a parameters, but is not possible.
I hope i explained correctly.
Thanks,

This can be done by creating a parameter, then a calculation, then a condition. Then under "Edit Header" or Page Setup, choose "Header" or "Footer"as needed and choose to insert the Parameter.
Step by step Example instruction:
1-Create a parameter as follows:
--Item = NONE
--Name = "Workbook run by" (This will appear in the heading or title when workbook run)
--Prompt = "Please enter UserID in all capital letters"
--Description and Default value left blank
2-Create a Calculation
--In New Calculation choose "Function" then choose the function "USER" from Database. (This is all that the calculation will need.)
--Name Calculation = i.e.: "DB_USERID"
3-Create a condition as follows:
--Name = Request_UserID
--Item = DB_USERID
Condition = IN
Value = Choose parameter: Workbook run by
-Double click on worksheet title, choose Insert, then choose Parameter (This can be done the same way under Page Setup for Header and Footer
-The calculation will create an extra column which I put at the top as a Page Item
-This will force the user to enter the UserID they are logged in to Discoverer with.
-This is case sensative. Therefore, since all Databe IDs are stored on the Database in all-caps, then the user will have to enter in all caps as well.
Thanks,
Sutirtha

Discoverer 4i Plus: Printing

I noticed the web version of Discoverer will print every page of your report. It doesn't allow the end user to control the column width, or specify which pages you want to print.
For now I ask my users to export to Excel to print out the reports. When will this be fixed?
I'm using Oracle Discoverer 4i Plus Release 4.1.43.07

I see that this is going to be fixed in a future release as an enhancement request 1677079. This was entered in March.

Export issue in discoverer plus (10G)

I'm unable to export the report result into either excel or text file from discoverer plus.
Error message is "Operation Failed".
Please help me in resolving this in discoverer 10G.

Hi, I happened to come across Murali's thread here while searching for something else.
If anyone is interested, the resolution was MetaLink Note 401600.1 (Exporting To Xls/Cvs/Txt Formats With Discoverer 10g (10.1.2) Plus or Viewer Fails With 'Error Operation Failed').
It involved deleting dc* files from the temporary directory we have identified for exporting temporary files. The temporary directory was full.
Once the dc* files were deleted, it resolved the export to XLS from Discoverer Plus issue for us this time.

Discoverer Plus Loopbac Adaptor Performance Issue

Hi,
I have installed Oracle10g AS 10.1.2.0.2 on a Windows 2000 box with a loopback adaptor.
Running Discoverer Plus on the server runs perfectly.
However, when running from a client browser, it takes up to 20 seconds to load the 'Open Workbook' prompt from Internet 6.
It seems to be down to the loopbacak adaptor on the server. I can ping the server successfully from the clients in question.
Has anyone encountered this type of issue ?
Kindest regards,
Will

Hussein,
We are running discoverer 10.1.2.3, yes its coming for all PC
Reviewed the note 465234.1 and also 579211.1. Both indicates that any thing above 1.6.0_10 will be good.
Please advice
Thanks & Regards,
Rakesh

Discoverer Plus Business Intelligence Print Format Problems

I am having a problem with setting the print settings to landscape. Under page setup before printing i set the Orientation to Landscape. The worksheet is printed in a landscape format, but the margins only go halfway across the page (under print preview the report fits on one page). It seems as if the program is taking the potrait orientation and just printing an image of the potrait printout in landscape. Does anyone know what the problem is? Thanks!

Hi
Discoverer Viewer is licensed the same as Discoverer Plus. If you have 1 Plus user and 20 Viewer users you need to be licensed for 21 users.
You can either buy named users or you can buy an unlimited license. The cutover point is 25 users becauses the last time I looked I believe the per user price was $800 and the perpetual was $20,000 per CPU.
The minimum purchase for named users is 5 so are you absolutely certain that 1 license you have isn't a perpetual license or even perhaps a Discoverer Admin license?
You should discuss this with your Oracle sales rep who may well be able to get you a better price.
Best wishes
Michael

To visualize the report created using Discoverer Plus in Web

Hi,
I had created the report usingOracleBI Discoverer Plus Version 10.1.2.45.46c & able to visualize the report in OracleBI Discoverer Viewer Version 10.1.2.45.46c.
URL fo accessing the report is as:
http://machinename1:7777/discoverer/viewer
If i try to connect to from another machine (machine2) as
http://machinename1:7777/discoverer/viewer
i'm unable to connect & i get the error page can not be displayed.
Is it necessary to have the URL only with domain name as
http://machinename.domainname:portno/discoverer/viewer
I had already installed OWB, Oracle BI etc. If i had to create a domain then i have install all these & need to work from scratch.
Is there any way to access the report across the internet or web.
Plz do provide a solution for this issue.
Thx in Advance

Logo To be Displayed on Discoverer plus (Web Server Access)

HI All,
I Am Developing a report in which ,i have to insert a logo(.bmp) into the report title and i did that by entering "FORMAT TITLE" menu and iserted a .bmp file.
But the problem is this ,the logo thus inserted is not visible on Discoverer Plus (Web Based Access).
Please help me out to resolve the same.

Hi,
Based on your description, I understand that DEVICES tab disappears from Remote Web Access website after RemoteApp
configured. If anything I misunderstand, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
à
But now I cannot figure out how to get to my server's Dashboard, because when I go to my main web acess site (that ends with "/Remote"), the server is not listed
under devices.
Did all users encounter the same issue when access RWA? Please open Dashboard and navigate to USERS tab, then
click the problematic user account and select View the account properties. In Properties of this user account, please navigate to Anywhere Access, then please check if Computer option was checked in
Show selected links on Remote Web Access. Meanwhile, please also use an administrator user account to check if this issue still exists.
In addition, please follow the path: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Server\Logs\WebApps folder and check
RemoteAccess log file if find more clues.
Hope this helps.

Discoverer Plus workbook editing window size

Is there a way to make all (or at least a few) workbook editing windows open as full screen (or larger than the default) ???
Each time I edit something in a workbook, I have to resize all the windows I open and it's kind of annoying.
Thanks
Michael
PS : I'm using Plus 10g release 1
