Draw box across main window

Hi,
I need to draw a box around the whole main window using BOX. i.e, if the page extends to more than one page, the box should draw on the next pages also. Right now I'm able to draw only on the first page. How should I do this?
This is what I have now.
POSITION WINDOW
POSITION XORIGIN -20 TW YORIGIN -20 TW
SIZE WIDTH +40 TW HEIGHT +40 TW
SIZE WINDOW
BOX FRAME 10 TW
BOX WIDTH '260.75' MM HEIGHT 1 CM FRAME 10 TW INTENSITY 15
BOX XPOS '2.0' CM WIDTH 0 TW FRAME 10 TW
BOX XPOS '10.5' CM WIDTH 0 TW FRAME 10 TW
BOX XPOS '11.5' CM WIDTH 0 TW FRAME 10 TW
Thanks,
A.P

Hi,
put the box declaration b/w top and endtop.
/: TOP
POSITION WINDOW
POSITION XORIGIN -20 TW YORIGIN -20 TW
SIZE WIDTH +40 TW HEIGHT +40 TW
SIZE WINDOW
BOX FRAME 10 TW
BOX WIDTH '260.75' MM HEIGHT 1 CM FRAME 10 TW INTENSITY 15

BOX XPOS '10.5' CM WIDTH 0 TW FRAME 10 TW
BOX XPOS '11.5' CM WIDTH 0 TW FRAME 10 TW

Drawing box in main window of sapscript form

Hi all,
I am developing a script for vendor balance confirmation report, in which I have to provide check boxes to allow the user to select an option.
My problem is if I use the BOX statement to draw the box the alignment keeps changing when the size of vendor address changes.
i.e the boxes moves up and down
I have another reference script in which they used the following statement to draw the box <527>.
Please suggest a way to use statement like this <527>
Thanks,
Rajan

Try it as shown below for drawing dynamic boxes.
Here the code works this way the YORIGIN is incremented by 0.6CM each time it is in the loop thus drawing tables dynamically.
/E TAB

DRWAING BOXES IN MAIN WINDOW

HOW TO DRAW BOXES IN MAIN WINDOW WITH OUT USING BOX XPOS

u can draw dynamic boxes by using uline n vline options. But it takes a lot of time, and is suggestible only if it is very critical. Just try out.
By using uline and vline, you can draw lines dynamically. Also u can specify the width too ... eg ... uline(120). Dont forget to specify the font style ans size of the font.

/:           POSITION XORIGIN '-0.1' CH YORIGIN '+0.4' LN
/:           SIZE WIDTH +0.7 CH HEIGHT +5.0 LN

Printing dynamic box in main window in scripts

hi ,
I want to print the dynamic box in main window of my script.
Ex. Suppose the content of the main window is 5 lines so it should print box for 5 those lines only.

Hi,
Create a Main window with only 2 lines, Give a BOX command it will give u Border for entire Main window.
/:BOX FRAME 10 TW
For giving vertical lines Syntax is
/:BOX XPOS 16 CH YPOS 0 LN WIDTH '0' CM HEIGHT 2 LN FRAME 10 TW
It gives u a vertical line at 16 character. so for ur requirment add another command at another XPOS.
Try this below just below ur ITEM ELEMENT which has the display fields.
Main Window
/E ITEM_A
A,,,,&ITAB-ABC&,,&ITAB-XXX&,,&ITAB-CDE&,,&ITAB-GEF&
/:BOX FRAME 10 TW
/:BOX XPOS 16 CH YPOS 0 LN WIDTH '0' CM HEIGHT 2 LN FRAME 10 TW
/:BOX XPOS 26 CH YPOS 0 LN WIDTH '0' CM HEIGHT 2 LN FRAME 10 TW
/:BOX XPOS 36 CH YPOS 0 LN WIDTH '0' CM HEIGHT 2 LN FRAME 10 TW
/:BOX XPOS 46 CH YPOS 0 LN WIDTH '0' CM HEIGHT 2 LN FRAME 10 TW
Change XPOS according to ur requirement.
Now add another main window to the same page with changing UPPER margin, U can add upto 99 Main windows in one page.
So add upto ur Page is full.
For headings
Create a Variable window same as Main window, in place of fields, give descriptions.
Make sure that u give BOX command below the field declaration, if u give above, for last record it will not print box.

Open a new window, draw boxes in the window, and communicate between the two windows

I'm going to research this, but figured I'd jump start here in case someone can give me a quick link or point me in the right direction on how to do this while I'm looking. This is an area of Flex I haven't hit on yet.
Basically I need to have my flex app (AIR Application) open a new window, allow the user to draw a box on that new window, and then pass the info of the box (X and Y, Width and Height) back to the main window.
I've never done any of that and am going to try to find out how, but if someone could point me here before I find it online, that would help a great deal, kind of in a time crunch.... thanks.

You can open the new window as a TitleWindow popup. You can pass info back to the main app using mx.core.Application.application.
In main app:
public var windowInfo:Object;
In popup:
import mx.core.Application.application;
private var app:Object = mx.core.Application.application;
app.windowInfo.x = this.x;
app.windowInfo.y = this.y;
app.windowInfo.otherOne = this.otherProp;
Looking ahead, it is best to pass information between the main app and components using custom components. Below systemManager, popups and the main app are in different display lists, so add event listeners for custom events to systemManager. My Flex Cookbook post on custom events shows this:

Printing of boxes in Main window of SAP Script at 2 different locations

Hi Experts,
I have an requriement in SAP script, I want to draw two boxes. The first box will be at the beginging of main window with 0.5 cm, which is comming perfectly. After the first box I have to display the entries related to a particular table, after the completion of that table I need to draw another box of lenght 0.5cm and the entries related to another table, needs to be displayed.
I am able to get the first box with intensity, but for the second box I am not getting exact position where i need to draw a dynamic box by filling intensity.
For that reason i have drawn two ulines and wrote the text, is there any way to fill internsity in between those lines.
Thanks
Ravi.

Hi Sujeet,
I already tried with that command, the problem is in between two boxes I dont know how many lines of data will come.
There is a need of drawing a box dynamically.
Thanks

Box in main window (sapscript) problem.

Hi, all.
I meet a weird problem....
I have 2 pages form which have 2 same MAIN window and of course their source code is same one. But when I run the output form, I found that one of the page which main window's box is disappear, while the other page no problem.
How come like this? Should be the box appear in both MAIN window, right? Hope someone can guide me.
Thanks in advance.

Boxes in the main window only get printed in the first page, unless you include them in an element and explicitly call the, But of course that's not the way to go.
Every other window in the same page which has content that's not inside one element gets printed every page. So to solve your problem, declare another window (perhaps called BOXES) with the appropiate dimmensions and define in it the boxes you need. Replicate this BOXES in the other pages (if you use different page formats inside the sapscript) or leave it in the First page (if it's the only one in the sapscript). The boxes will now print in every page.

Box inside Main window issue in Scripts

I have issue in placing a box inside the main window. I would like to display text with a box frame at end of the line items.
I tried creating seperate FOOTER window in the Last page, but it dint work as expected, since if the line items ended in the first page then the LAST page did not trigger and one more complication was if there were 4 pages, then there was blank window (FOOTER) in 2 pages and it looks ugly.
I tried putting the box frame by using text element, calling after the end of the line items. The text displayed as needed, but the frame was misaligned.
Kindly help me. Thanks in advance.
Have a great weekend.

Raj,
Try to find out which text element is trigerring after the line items text element while debuging the script and then place the box code in that text element.
regards.

Positioning box in Main Window

I have a main window (Sapscript) with multiple text elements as follows:
<Start Text Element1>
Include statement with varying text length
<End Text Element1>
<Start Text Element2>
Include statement with varying text length
<End Text Element2>
<Start Text Element3>
I need a box to appear here with item header. ****
<End Text Element3>
How can I position the box in the 3rd text element section ? The text appearing in Text Element1 & Text Element2 are not fixed in length. I will not know where text element 3 starts.

Hi...
You can do like this.
BOX XPOS YPOS WIDTH 10 CM HEIGHT 10 CM
INCLUDE TEXT
INCLUDE TEXT
INCLUDE TEXT.
Here, you need to change your XPOS and YPOS accordingly
So that your Third text will be fit in the Box.

Box in MAIN window of sapscript keeps misaligning...

Hello Experts,
I am currently modifying a sapscript and inside the MAIN window, there is a box command that 'boxes' a
static text. But the problem is, the box misaligns since the number of line items is dynamic.
So, how can I make the box command to just 'box' the static text correctly even though the line item is
dynamic?

HI,
Declare the Box and Static text in the main window with a new text element after the text element of the line items . so it will print it in the end when all of the Line items are printed..
(or)
Just create another script with the BOX and the text you want inside the BOX. i.e. this becomes another script which is separate from the line items you are printing there.
call this script in your driver program with start_form FM.
REPORT YTEST_SCRIPT.
DATA:
ITAB TYPE TABLE OF SFLIGHT,
FS TYPE SFLIGHT.
SELECT * FROM SFLIGHT INTO TABLE ITAB.
CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'
EXPORTING
 FORM = 'ZSCRIPT_TEST'.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
 WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
LOOP AT ITAB INTO FS.
CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
 EXPORTING
 ELEMENT = 'TEST'
 WINDOW = 'MAIN'.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
 WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
CALL FUNCTION 'END_FORM'. "---------->Ends the previous form
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
 WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
CALL FUNCTION 'START_FORM' "------------> Starts your new script with BOX and Static text
EXPORTING
 FORM = 'ZSCRIPT_TEST1'.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
 WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
EXPORTING
 ELEMENT = 'TEST'
 WINDOW = 'MAIN'.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
 WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
CALL FUNCTION 'CLOSE_FORM'.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
 WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
This will print the BOX and the Static text in a new page after the line items got printed..
This will solve your issue...
Thanks&Regards

Thanks,

Hi Kumar,

I couldn't visualize what do you mean by extra box, where exactly they are...before the table/ after the table.

Main window Boxes and text alignment

Dear all,
please correct me .........i am displaying line items (materials) with their material code,description,quantity etc in the main window of a invoice.now my requirement is i have to create boxes and display each field in a box in main window,and in each box the field value or text shud be aligned properly.......means it shud not cross the box.
for this im following dis sequence .
1. box command (for creating boxes)
2. protect....end protect ......in between the heading and value to be populated
i ve executed but iam able to display only 1 line item.please correct me

quite a difficult task.
At first you need either items of fixed height, or you need to create those boxes dynamically. Since you dont know how much items will get printed you need to create them half dynamically anyway.
I´d strongly recommend you to do this is SMARTFORMS rather than in sap-script. Cause smartforms got the tools for such tasks, and makes it quite easy while in SAP-SCRIPT it is one of the hardest requirements to come by.
