Fixed size drop down prompts

Is there any way to create fixed size drop down prompts in a dashboard? I have 9 such prompts in a dashboard (type varchar2) each one with different length and as a result the dashboard looks really ugly.

My dpi resolution is already at 150 % the max default setting and there is no change. Is sure wish this could have worked.

Multiselect & Drop-down Prompt usage in Obiee 10g

Hi all,
A prompt is created using the same column twice.
First prompt,say Cust name with drop-down as option and it is set to constraint.
Second prompt Cust name created with Multi-select as option for the user to select.
When I select particular values from the multiselected option prompt, those values are reflected in drop-down listed prompt. This is working fine.
But when I choose values using begins with option in the multiselect prompt(Eg: Inside the multiselect dialog, first i'm filtering the values as cust name begins with AR), then it is not reflected in the Drop-down prompt.
My expectation is that it should get reflected whether the user chooses with/without search option in the multiselect dialog.
Guys, pl share your ideas....
regards,
arul

Hi,
Try this.
Look and feel is different of Obiee 11g as compare to obiee 10. but we can create Dashboard inside another dashboard(as u want in drop down).
for this create new dashboard as follows:
New-> Dashboard -> in Name section gives the name of new dashboard as u want in drop down -> in Location section choose the path from drop down list or u can browse -> click on OK button.
Thanks,

Font size - Drop down menus

My PSE-8, newly installed on windows 7 platform has very small font sizes and I can only read with difficulty (aging eyes) the drop down menu headers; they are about font size 6 maybe even 5. There are same font size problems elsewhere in the menus but I can`t remember where.
Does anyone know if and how these font sizes can be increased ? Much appreciate your time to direct me to the solution to this most annoying feature.

Adobe, Fix your drop down CC

In the CC drop down window I want you to scroll down to Extension Manager CC 'More Information' - click on it and you will see nothing comes up but "there is something wrong contact support'- Please fix it.
There is no way to contact support w/o picking a software - but it is not on the list -- wasting my time.
I want more info on Extension Manager CC but I cannot get it.

How can i fix the drop down menus.

When am moving the mouse on them everything became black.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

How do I fix my floating drop down navigational menu?

Hello, I am currently reworking my website to make it responsive, but I have hit a roadblock with my navigation menu:
My goal for the menu is to have a floating navigational menu in which as the user hovers over the link the image changes. One of the tabs is intended to be a submenu that drops down horizontally. I also am trying to get the menu centered on the page using fluid positioning.
As of now, I have a functional drop down menu with the rollover effects. It wasn't until I began work on floating the menu that I ran into a problem. At first, the menu was not scaling proportioally with the rest of the page, but upon looking around, I found: http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/beautiful-css-centered-menus-no-hacks-full-cross-browse r-support.
Using the code on the link, I recoding the menu. In the end, the drop down menu is causing the problem. When I have the drop down menu still included in the code, the menu is broken up in three lines. The submenu is grouped with its parent, but they are grouped boxy (at least in the browsers I have checked) and only two are visible.
I decided to humor myself and removed the code for the drop down menu to find that the menu works perfectly--it does everything I was aiming for for the time being--rollover, center, floating.
Is there something that I am overlooking that will fix the drop down menu?
I was thinking that I would have to center the styles for the sub menu, but I didn't see any results.
What am I missing that I am not seeing?
The links to the two pages:
http://ryanolsenstudios.com/WithDropDown.html
http://ryanolsenstudios.com/WithoutDropDown.html
If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated, I have been looking around trying to figure this out, but to no avail. Thank you.

I don't advise you use images for navigation as they are NOT scalable to any good effect.
Below is a simplified version of your image buttons with dropdowns in place.
The jQuery used to create the rollover swaps is going to get very long and unmanagable (it's just as an example) I suspect there will be more streamlined solutions using jQuery if you Google, like just adding _static.jpg and_over.jpg to the end of the image src, which will keep the code to a minimum of lines.

Combo Prompt Design (with Drop down and Multi-select prompts)

Hi folks,
I have the following prompt design requirement in OBIEE dashboard:
PromptA: should be a drop-down prompt
PromptB: should be a multi-select prompt
PromptB should list the values contained in either of two dimensions (lets say: Product Names and Product Group Names ). Lets define Product Names to be the names of individual products, while the Product Group Names is the names of a predefined collection of certain products.
The string values that should appear in the PromptA then are: Product Names and Product Group Names. Consequent to the selection made in PromptA, values from one of these two dimensions should be dynamically displayed in PromptB. That is, if Product Names is selected from PromptA, then all product names from the Product Names dimension should be listed in PromptB. And if Product Group Names is selected from PromptA, then all product group names from the Product Group Names dimension should be listed in PromptB.
Can anyone tell me how do I relate the above two prompts and have my reports to work accordingly?
regards,
Mahendra

Hi
For this you have to do two dashboard prompt
In promptA:
select one dummy column,
In control dropdown list select dropdown
In show dropdown list select SQL Results
In sql results write the following query
Select case when 1=0 then tabelname.column else 'Tablename.ProductNames' end from subjectarea name
Union all
Select case when 1=0 then tablename.column else 'Tablename.ProductGroupName' end from subject are name
In set variable ->set presentation variable called var1
Saved it as PromptA
In PromptB:
Select one dummy column in that column forumla write @{var1}
but problem with this approach it shows two Go buttons for two prompts to avoide this create custom Go button
for creating custom Go button see this link

Try this its not work let me know
i tried for another solution

How do I remove an entry from the "Store Files" drop down list in the "Import Settings" section of Aperture 3.3.2

The dropdown list "Store Files" in the "Import Settings" section of Aperture 3.3.2 displays the history of the entries previously added to the list. Some of the entries are no longer valid and I'm trying to delete them but I can't find a way to do this. This is a screenshot. Does anyone know how to do this?

Once again - the Jive system ate my bullet points and messed up the formatting
Is the MacOS X version in your signature correct? Then you cannot be using Aperture 3.3.2?
You should not be seeing duplicate entries in the "Store Files" pop-up menu. This looks like your Aperture Preferences file is corrupted and needs fixing.
Quit Aperture (and log off and on again, if you are running MacOS X 10.7 or later)
Then reveal your User Library (from the Finder's main menu bar, the "Go" menu. Hold down the options-key until the library apears in the drop-down menu)
In the Library folder select the "Preferences folder and locate the file "~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Aperture.plist"
Now you can either
remove the com.apple.Aperture.plist file to the Desktop, to force Aperture to create a new one, but you will have to set again your Preferences from the "Preferences" panel,
or make a backup copy of the file and edit it, if you are an experienced programmer and have Xcode installed. To fix the drop-down list you need to edit the item "RecentReferenceFolders" and delete the redundant folder names. Enter "recent" into the search field to find it quickly. If you click an item in the list, plus/minus buttons should appear. But only try this, if you know how to edit property lists, otherwise it will be much safer to delete the faulty list and to set your preferences again from the "Preferences" panel.

New Adobe DC works not with fillable Documents (Drop Down Lists) in iOS

Hi, the new Adobe DC for iOS (iPad) has a big Problem. When you have a fillable Form with some Drop Down Fields it only works with the first Drop Down. Any other Drop Down will not work since you manualy restart the Adobe in the Task Manager. Please Fix that quick! It's not usable for my Company anymore!!!

Hi together,
i received a temporary sollution from Adobe to fix that Drop-Down List issue. It works ;-)
Adobe wrote:
Hi Adrian,
Your sample form exhibits a bug in the latest release of Mobile Acrobat/Reader. The catalyst for this bug is a drop down setting called “Commit selected value immediately”. Because this setting is rarely used for Mobile forms (it is generally used when connecting to a backend or when you want your selection to immediately toggle something else in the form), it may have been overlooked during final testing. Nevertheless, we are holding this bug in highest priority to be fixed in the next release of Mobile Acrobat/Reader.
In the meantime, it may be possible to keep your forms usable while you wait for the next release. Some of your drop down fields use the “Commit selected value immediately” setting and some do not. Looking at your form, it does not appear that this setting is necessary for any form logic (for example, I do not see any javascript or Actions associated with the fields that would mandate this setting). If the drop down fields that have this setting were modified to be like the other drop down fields that do not have this setting, I believe your form will become usable again. I have done this for the sample form you sent and have attached it to this message.
Let me know if this solves your immediate problem. And as mentioned, the bug has been triaged and is being addressed with the highest priority level to be included in the next release of Mobile Acrobat/Reader.

Value drop down list control in ADOBE Form

We are on SP16 currently. We are developing an ADOBE interactive online
form using ABAP WebDynpro.
To display search help of a few fields like Vendor Number, G/L Account
Number, Cost Center, we are using 'Value Help Drop Down List' control
availalbe in WebDynpro Native group.
After the form gets loaded on the broswer, first time the search help
control works absolutely fine for any of the field. But only once. Once
one search help gets displayed, none of the other search value drop
down control gets clicked. But please note that normal drop down (with
fixed values) gets clicked and allows to choose any entry from it. It
also allows to enter values into other text box controls. Only Search
Value Drop Down list stops working.
For Example: We have 2 search help drop down list controls (one for
LIFNR and another for WERKS) and 1 drop down list control (Fixed Values
to be displayed for selection).
After form gets displayed on ABAP WebDynpro, if we click on LIFNR, the
search help for LIFNR will come and it will allow to select vendor
number from it. But after that, it doesn't allow to select WERKS nor
even to LIFNR. If we click on WERKS first, it will work perfactly fine
but then, it will not allow LIFNR or WERKS after that. In any of the
case, it will always allow to select the values from Fixed Value Drop
down list.
Please note that we dont have SAP Portal into the landscape.
Is there any bug in the control?
Please provide the solution ASAP.

Hi Reema,
We are using ZCI type of form. So, I dont think there is any need to run the report for ZCI_Update.
And the display type of Interactive Form in ABAP WebDynpro is 'NATIVE' which is the same we dragged the control from (WebDynpro Native).
Is there any work around to display search helps on ADOBE Interactive forms apart of this control?
Appreciate your quick answer.
Thanks & Regardss,
Sandip Kamdar

Standalone table as drop down and restrict values in the report

Hi,
I have report where the measure values has to be restricted based on the threshold value table.Threshold values has the below values.
Threshold table:
threshold id threshold values descr
13345 10000 initial
13346 20000 start
13347 30000 initial start
13348 40000 end
13349 50000 last end
This table is independent of the star schema for the OBIEE report and created for the user given threshold values.
Threshold values shud be shown has drop down values and the drop down prompt is always GTE to 10,000 by default.The report shud display measure values GTE 10,000 in the 4 measure columns in the report by deafult based on the default prompt and shud work as per the user selection in the drop down.
I was planning to implement this using Presentation variable but when i select GTE in the Prompt ,this option is not present.Please throw some light on this issue.
Thanks in Advance.

Use is equal to operator in the prompt..change the show section to all values to sql results..after that change the column formula to case when 1=0 then <some column> else 1 end..now you can make it a presentation variable..use that variable in your report with is greater that operator in your report..hth..

Elements 9 - text, font family - how can I get the drop down menu to work?

I can't change the text fonts in Elements 9. Most everything else seems to work except the font family drop down menu. When I click on the arrow, the menu drops but immediately dissappears. The font size drop down works but not the family menu. Help please.

I think it's usually a restriction of short displays on netbooks and laptops etc. You may have to live with it unless you can change display resolution via the control panel.

I got a time capsule 3T and Drops every other moment(we have at least 7 laptops, 5iphones and 2iTV....why it drops down all the time

MANY PEOPLE HAVE WORK ON THIS TIME CAPSULE AND NOBODY GET TO FIXIT::::::::IT DROPS DOWN ALMOST EVERYDAY!!!! ITS A BIG 3T MACHINE......WE KNOW THAT CUTTING THE 20 CONNECTIONS DOWN HELPS BUT ITS A 3T MACHINE......IN THOSE 20 CONNECTIONS ARE 7 OR 8 LAPTOPS LIKE 6 PHONES 2 ipads and like 4 iTV

Exactly which model is it? The new AC or the previous Gen4?
What role does the TC take in the network? What is the broadband modem and how is the TC connected?
If many people have worked on it.. it is doubtful we are going to fix it with anything offered here.
Have you taken it back to Apple store for testing or replacement under warranty?
The new AC one desperately needs a firmware update to fix some of the issues.. and I have no idea what you have tried. But my standard list is as follows.
1. Factory reset.
2. All names short, (2-20 characters), no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
3. Test via ethernet.. if this issue is purely wireless or is there a drop out on the WAN connection.
4. Set all wireless manually.. that means a different name for 5ghz.. and fix the channels and test at least 11, 6, 1 on 2.4ghz and somewhere in 36-46 and >100 for 5ghz.
5. Test wireless via a software like istumbler for levels and consistency.
No luck with any of that take it back or ring apple to help you.
NOTE.. there are loads of threads with this issue.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5140686?tstart=0
That is the first one I saw.. but also on the airport area.. plenty of people are having serious issues with iphones..
If this is new ie within 14days just return it for now. Get something that is known to be stable.

Henry,
See the change I made to your reports region template on page 1, adding the session id to the links as was suggested earlier:
var Session_Id = html_GetElement('pInstance').value;
if (a == "Name")
location.href="f?p=35225:3:"+Session_Id;
else if (a == "Employee")
location.href="f?p=35225:2:"+Session_Id;
else
location.href="f?p=35225:1:"+Session_Id;
And again, you do not want to be hard-coding the application ID anywhere in your code.
