FORM PROPERTY CHANGES

In forms 6i,
Property of field in forms changes automatically. This
happens even when the property of field is set by property class
and also for other items.
I am unable to understand the problem in this. Has anyone faced
problem like this. Please reply us back on this.

We converted forms 4.5 version to forms 6i. A new width need
to be changed from varchar2(5) to varchar2(12). I made the
change in the form by setting the form property width to 12.
When i rechecked the field after some time, the width changed
back to the 5. Another major problem is database Yes/No
property for fields also changes drastically. Certain control
fields are set to database yes automatically. It would be of
great help if you can help us in sorting out this problem.

The add annotations field shows as not allowed in the security options. So how do I send this form back with the changes??

I think you you need to click 'save' first, then it is saved to acrobat, where it will prompt to send.

How to map a custom enum list to a custom form property in an extended incident class

Hi,
I'm struggeling to understand how to map a custom enum list to a custom form property in an extended incident class.
Here's what i want to have happen:
I am going to publish a request offering on my SMPortal for allowing users to submit basic IT incidents. I want the form to include "Whom does this problem affect" (answers(This is the custom enum list): Me, Multiple Users, Whole department or Whole
company), "What is the problem about", "Description" and "Attachments".
Here's what i've done:
In the authoring tool i created a MP for the custom enum list and put only the list in it. I sealed the MP and imported it.
I created another unsealed MP called TST.Incident.Library for storing incident library customizations and extended the incident class to add an extension class i called ClassExtension_Affected scope with a custom property i called AffectedScope. Then i am trying
to set the datatype of this property to "list". In the "select a list" dialog i cannot chose my previously sealed MP with the custom enum list in it. Why?
- Do i need to scratch the sealed MP and put the custom enum list in the latter TST.Incident.Library MP instead?
- If so, can i do that and keep this MP unsealed, or will i get an error on import saying "Unsealed management packs should not contain type definitions"
- Should i create one sealed MP for both the custom enum list and the extension class + custom property?

Hi,
Authoring Tool simply isn't informed about your list. Open the sealed management pack where you define the root of the list in the Authoring Tool and in the same time open TST.Incident.Library. You will have two opened MPs in the Authoring
Tool and be able to add a custom list for your custom field.

Marat

WF_EXTSRV: use PDF Form in Change mode in Portal:

Hai,
I'am trying to use transaction WF_EXTSRV to generate a task which can be used within the UWL from the portal. The main purpose of this task is to show an exsisting PDF form in change mode. I allready found some nice information from SDN, but not enough to make it all work. I still have still these questions:
1) How must I setup the required fields within transaction WF_EXTSRV when I want to generate for example this url:
http://abc.abc.nl:51800/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/pcui_gp~isr/IsrForm?SCENARIO=SPEG&MODE=CHANGE&NOTIF_NO=000600000003
2) How must a then setup transaction SWFVISU? Which apllication and package name.
I hope some can help me.
Greetings,

Hi,
When do you get this error ... "No scenario specified". ???
I mean did you try creating an iview for IsrForm Java WD application sending the Scenario name as parameter?
Betn us,
Why dont you try the parameter IFV='P' for IsrFormApprove Java WD application itself. Get to know more about this parameter in these threads...

Property change listener error with jtabbedpane

Greetings
I have a property change listener on my jtabbedpane (2 panes (index 0 of course and index 1). my problem is when i want to run my app it gives me a java null pointer exception. I believe it is b/c it is starting the app and it see the property change of the first tab at index 0 which is the first tab it sees and tries to run the method that makes the buttons visibility to true. but the buttons are already true. Basically how can I get the property change to run only after the app is visible? I made the buttons visibility false on startup to see if it can run the app but I still got the same error. I hope I am clear enough, if I am not please and I will attempt to reiterate the situation better. thanks for anyones help.
tabs = new JTabbedPane();
          tabs.addChangeListener(this);
          tabs.setPreferredSize(new java.awt.Dimension(800, 400));

          tabs.addTab("R", tab2);

            JTabbedPane sourceTabbedPane = (JTabbedPane) changeEvent.getSource();
           int index = sourceTabbedPane.getSelectedIndex();
           //System.out.println("Tab changed to: " + sourceTabbedPane.getTitleAt(index)+" Index: "+index);

                changeButtonsT();
                 //makes buttons true on side panel
       }

Basically how can I get the property change to run only after the app is visible?Add the PropertyChangeListener to the tabbed pane after the JFrame is visible.
If you need further help then you need to create a "Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE)",

that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.

How to control item between Form mode change

Hi Experts
I am using B1DE to do something like some item's enable status will be changed following the Form mode change.
For instance, add a new matrix into system form, if changing the Form mode to Find, I want to disable this matrix, if changing to Add mode, the matrix should be enable.
Do you how how to do this?
Thanks
Tim

Hi,
You need to capture Menu Event in your code and can make matrix either editable or non editable.
Sub MenuEvent(ByRef pVal As SAPbouiCOM.MenuEvent, ByRef BubbleEvent As Boolean)
        Try
            Dim oForm As SAPbouiCOM.Form = objMain.objApplication.Forms.ActiveForm
            If pVal.BeforeAction = False Then
                If pVal.MenuUID = "1281" Then                // For Find Mode
                    //make matrix editable or non editable
                End If
            End If
        Catch ex As Exception
            objMain.objApplication.StatusBar.SetText(ex.Message)
        End Try
    End Sub

How to force updatedisplaylist in a skin when custom property changes

Hi Folks,
I have created a custom component based on a Spark Button. In that custom component I have added a single, public, bindable property - let's call it Fred.
I also have a custom skin, based on the Spark Button skin. It's basically just like the delivered skin, just a bit different graphics stuff. I have applied the custom skin to the custom button component. So far, so good. However...
When a user action causes the Fred property to change on a custom button instance, I need my custom skin to re-draw something. It appears that I need the skin's updateDisplayList function to fire. Unfortunately, it appears that the only time that it fires is when "real" properties are changed, like 'left' or 'width'. How can I get the custom skin to updateDisplayList when this fake, custom property changes?
p.s. - the custom skin can 'read' the custom Fred property just fine. And, if I set the Fred property and then 'mouse over' the custom button instance, the updateDisplayList fires...too late of course, but it does fire.
I have read the docs, but there is not much written about updateDisplayList, or when it fires, or how to make it fire.
Thanks,
-David

Good question...in my skin's 'creationComplete' event I call a function in the skin. That function 'evaluates' the host component's Fred propertey, and based on what it finds, it draws some stuff:
protected function doSpecialDrawing():void
     var hostFred:String = hostComponent.Fred;
     if (hostFred == "certain_value")
          //set some property in one of the path objects in my skin to a certain value
     else if (hostFred == "other_value")
          //set some property in one of the path objects in my skin to some other value
When I created the skin, I did not anticipate the need to dynamically respond to setting the Fred property/value.
I've placed a call to the 'doSpecialDrawing' function inside the skin's updateDisplayList, but unfortunately, the updateDisplayList does not seem to get called in real-time when I set the Fred property in a custom button instance.
I'm all ears here... still a beginner/novice with Flex...
Thanks,

LineSeries form property missing in 2.01

I just "upgraded" flex builder to 2.01 from 2.0. It looks
like the LineSeries class no longer contains the 'form' property.
Has it been renamed?

The answer to my own question is that 'form' is now a style.
It can be set by:
myLineSeries.setStyle("form", myForm);

How to intercept property changes in subclassed control?

I've got an application in Flex 1.5 that uses constants
stored in XML files (see attached). The XML files are loaded into
mx:Models and used as dataProviders on ComboBoxes with "abbr" as
the labelItem. The business objects store only the numeric ID of
the constants. When a business object is loaded, I need to set the
selectedItem of the ComboBox using the numeric ID but I can't
because it doesn't match the items in the dataProvider.
Is it possible to intercept the selectedItem property change
and process the dataProvider items in order to compare the numeric
values instead of having to process it in a function outside of the
control itself? I'd like to write this code only once.

Okay, instead of trying to do any magic with property
changes, I decided to just create my own property (selectedValue).
When this property is set, it iterates through the dataProvider and
finds the index of the item that matches. The selectedValue
property sets the value of selectedIndex to that item.

Urgent: Servlets -- property change error

          I am new to Servlets and I have the following problem

Auto submit virtual form on change (not the whole form)

If you tick the "auto submit on change" option of a drop down, it submits the whole form, thus all the required fields have to be filled. Are there any way to submit only the perticular virtual form on change?
Thank you very much.

I don't see the problem... Are the files being digitally signed? If not then there's no difference at all between submitting the form data and using it to populate a local copy of the file and submitting the entire file.
It's technically impossible to extract a page from a PDF viewed in Reader.
Another alternative: Split the file in two parts and put a link on the last page of the first file to the second part, which will contain only the page with the form fields. You can add a link and some text to the page saying that it is a continuation of the first document.

Button label property changes

The buttons I have built work fine when I test them in flash catalyst but once I deploy it to the server they do funny things. In some browsers the font on the button changes when rolled over or clicked on. In other browsers the bold property changes.
The buttons were created with the button component in flash catalyst. The text has been identified as a label. The label properties of font are set as handwriting dakota, regular, black for the up and over state. The label properties are set as arial regular white on the down and disabled states. When I published the swf for webserver, I chose to embed the fonts.
However when viewing the deployed version on some computers the text on some of the buttons change to bold when rolled over or after they become enabled after being disabled. In some computers it is the font that changes in this way.
Thanks for any suggestions or help.

Back with results!
We've identified a bug in the Flex SDK that is causing this text rendering problem. The upshot: you should be able to avoid this issue by replacing Arial with a similar-looking font like Helvetica (though not Verdana, unfortunately).
The details: this bug occurs when the same text object transitions between an embedded font (the handwriting font you're using in the Up/Over states) and a non-embedded font (Arial in your Down/Disabled states). We're planning to fix this for the next release. To avoid the bug in the meantime, you'd want to have the text object always use embedded fonts, or always use non-embedded fonts. Most fonts are embedded, since that's the only way to be sure everyone who views your site will see the correct font. But a few fonts (like Arial and Verdana) are not embedded, since they're essentially guaranteed to be on any computer that has Flash.
Just to be clear, it's perfectly fine to mix the two types of fonts in the same Catalyst project. You just don't want to have a single text object that switches between the two types during a transition -- in Catalyst 1.0, that will risk hitting this bug.
I hope that helps, and sorry for the trouble this caused you! Let me know if you have any questions or are having trouble with the workaround.

BUG: Changing "alpha" with AS breaks other property changes on timeline

I've discovered a bug in AS3 where a Movie Clip that spans 2 different frames, but its properties are different in each frame (i.e. it has been repositioned on the 2nd frame but the instance name is the same), and the MC's alpha is changed using ActionScript prior to moving the timeline from one frame to the other, the timeline moves, but the MC does NOT actually move.
I'm experiencing this error in a professional project that I'm working on so I cannot post the actual FLA, but here is a little mock up that I made:
stop()
currentFrameTxt.text = currentLabel
var alphaChange:Number = .1
var alphaMax:Number = 1
var alphaMin:Number = 0
alphaUpBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, alphaUp)
function alphaUp(evt:MouseEvent) {
    box.alpha += alphaChange
    if (box.alpha > alphaMax) {
        box.alpha = alphaMax
alphaDownBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, alphaDown)
function alphaDown(evt:MouseEvent) {
    box.alpha -= alphaChange
    if (box.alpha < alphaMin) {
        box.alpha = alphaMin
leftBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoLeft)
function gotoLeft(evt:MouseEvent) {
    if (currentLabel != "left") {
        gotoAndStop("left")
    currentFrameTxt.text = currentLabel
rightBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoRight)
function gotoRight(evt:MouseEvent) {
    if (currentLabel != "right") {
        gotoAndStop("right")
    currentFrameTxt.text = currentLabel
On Frame 1 (labeled "left") is an MC with the instance name "box" and the box's position is on the left side of the stage. On Frame 11 (labeled "right") is the same instance "box", but its position has been moved to the right side of the stage.
I have a pair of buttons ('leftBtn" and "rightBtn") that toggle the timeline between the "left" frame and the "right" frame.
I also have a pair of buttons ("alphaUpBtn" and "alphaDownBtn") that change the box's "alpha" property.
If you click "leftBtn" or "rightBtn" before you click the "alphaUp" or "alphaDown" buttons, the box moves left or right as one would expect. BUT if you click either "alphaUpBtn" or "alphaDownBtn", the box does NOT move if you then click "leftBtn" or "rightBtn" even though the timeline is indeed moving (which I am confirming using the "currentFrameTxt" dynamic text box).
I have tried this example by changing other properties on the 2 frames and they too stop working once you change the "alpha" using AS. I have also tried change other propeties using AS, but alpha is the only property to breaks the other properties changed by moving the timeline.
Why would changing the "alpha" property suddenly break all other property changes on the timeline?
Now I know that one work-around for this bug is to simply change the box's position dynamically by setting the x and y positions, but this is NOT an option for this project because it is very important that the client be able to manually position the artwork on each frame by hand.
This is a serious bug and I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered it before and if they know of a viable workaround.

I did some more testing by changing other properties of the box with AS and it appears that for most properties, like alpha, x, y, rotation, width, height, etc, if they are changed with AS, then the properties of the MC can no longer be changed by the timeline settings. Changing the "visible" property has no effect, however.
It seems that this "bug" is not really bug so much as it is a fundamental misunderstanding on my part about the fact that you CANNOT change the properties of a symbol using BOTH ActionScript and timeline properties. I can only change the properties of using either the timeline OR ActionScript because as soon as I change the properties using AS, the MC becomes an AS-controlled object and can no longer be controlled via the timeline. I guess that makes sense, but it is frustrating nonetheless.
Colin, your suggestion to nest the MC inside another MC is indeed a successful workaround, at least for this little box example (see fixed FLA attached with the "left" and "right" timeline property changes nested inside the box itself) and I will see if it is a viable solution for my actual application. I'm guessing it will not be a problem for my client to simply navigate inside a parent MC in order to adjust the positions of the now-nested MC in question.
Thanks for the help.

Forms property 'Maximum Query Time'

Running Forms 6.0
I would like to use the forms property
'Maximum Query Time'
It doesn't seem to work.
Do I have to make some kind of setup on the server?
What unit is 'Maximum Query Time' - seconds?
- Flemming
null

Hello pradeepantony,
According to the help file, that property is:
Provides the option to abort a query when the elapsed time of the query (in seconds) exceeds the value of this property.
How you would use it would be if you did not want your user to sit and wait a significant amount of time while a query executes. Some processes can take a fair amount of time on a busy database. Setting this property will assure your user will not wait any longer than the number of seconds you set in this property.
I have a couple of stored procedures that take "many minutes" to execute. If a user had issued a query against a table that one of my stored procedures had locked and I had set this parameter, the screen would abort the query and not wait for my stored procedure to complete. Otherwise, the user would have to wait until the database freed up the table before completing the query.
Hope this helps,
Don.
