Grey out checkbox in muti-record block

Using Forms 6i
I have a multi-record block which has a checkbox on each record. On some records I want to disable the checkbox. I use SET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY for this and it works OK. However, when I disable the checkbox I also want to change its appearance and make it look grayed out. How can I do this using SET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY (or any other built-in)?
I've tried SET_ITEM_PROPERTY but that disables and grays out ALL the checkboxes on the block

Thanks Tony
Yes, I used INSERT_ALLOWED, UPDATE_ALLOWED and NAVIGABLE all set to Property_False via set_item_instance_property.
I've set up a named visual attribute and tried various combinations of Foreground/Background colors and Fill Patterns setttings. None of the combinations alter the colour of the 'check' (or tick) or the background behind the 'check' in the checkbox (it still shows black 'check' on white background). The settings only alter the colours of the border surrounding the check box. Presumably the colour of the check/tick is coming from the font setting (in visual attributes) but there's no option to change the font color (or the font background).
Any ideas??

Poplist and muti-record block navigation

Hi. I have a form with a multi-record block and a poplist on
each record. When a certain item is TRUE on a record, I want the
poplist button to be disabled and enabled when the item is
FALSE. The button is normally enabled and I disable it when
needed in the WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE trigger. This normally
works fine except in one likely common scenario: The user
navigates from a record with the poplist button enabled directly
into the poplist button of a record for which the poplist should
be disabled. By clicking directly into the poplist without
clicking on any of the record's regular fields, the WHEN-NEW-
RECORD-INSTANCE trigger hasn't had a chance to fire so they are
allowed in.
How can I ensure a user cannot navigate to a poplist without the
system recorgnizing the record change?
Thanks for any advice.

What I would advise is that you create another item in the block
which mirrors the poplist.
Make this item a text item.
Change the attributes of the poplist to have a Records Displayed
of 1.
What you need to do then is only display the poplist on the
current record. Do this by dynamically repositioning the poplist
on a When-New-Item-Instance trigger.
The information in :system.trigger_record and get_block_property
(<>, TOP_RECORD) will provide enough information to work out the
Y coords of the poplist for each record.
Then at runtime when the user clicks, they will be clicking on
the Text item rather than the Poplist. You can then navigate to
the row and display the poplist in the correct position enabling
or disabling it in the process.

KOB1 ALV greyed out checkbox "user specific"

Hi Experts,
following problem, in ta KOB1, during saving a layout the "user specific" check box is greyed out.
the outorization object s_alv_layo (act.23) & s_alv_layr are granted to the user profile.
No outorization problem in su53
the oss-notes: 1667238 1818614 are implemented correctly.
any suggestions are welcome

Hi Julius,
Please check SAP note 331416 - CO line item reports: EXIT_SAPLKAEP_009. This will help to find out whether your system has specific coding activated. Point 3 in note is as follows:-
3. All users may change all layout/display variants in the standard setting.You should now change this so that only the user 'THE_BOSS' has the authorization to make changes.All other users should only be allowed to change user-defined variants/layouts.
              Solution:parameter I_SAVE is responsible for the control of the variant/layout maintenance. Its characteristic values are:
a) ' ' = display variants cannot be saved
b) 'X' = standard save, user-specific saving is not possible
c) 'U' = only user-specific saving
d) 'A' = standard and user-specific saving
              In the standard system, I_SAVE = 'A'. You have to set this to 'U' for all users except for 'THE_BOSS'.Also refer to Note 310293 regarding this problem.
if sy-uname ne 'THE_BOSS'.
    i_save = 'U'.
endif.

Another multi-record block question

I have always struggled with this. I have a muti-record block(10 records displayed). Eventhough my block is a db block, I have not assigned it a table. Hence, it is a non-db block. If I set enabled on a txt box, it
is enabling the entire column. I need to enable only the text box on which the cursor is/user navigated to.
How to do it?
Thanks,
Chiru

ok..here is the explanation of the issue
in my multi-record block, there is a drop down list column with 2 values "Monthly %" and "Half-Rent". So, for example, in record 1, the drop-down could be chosen as "Monthly %" while in rec2, it could be "Half-rent". Right next to this list column, I have a text box. When the user chooses "Monthly %", the text box need to be enabled to allow keying a % value (say 5%). While in rec2, since the user chooses "Half-rent", the text box needs to be disabled for this record. How to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Chiru

Enabling and disabling the button in the multi record block

hi all,
i am using
Forms [32 Bit] Version 6.0.8.24.1 (Production)
Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
i have a multi record block each block contains a button(button is to approve the record in terms of changing the status)
i have the items like date,remarks and button
the button should be enabled if the remarks is not null otherwise it should be disabled.
for this in pre-record trigger i have written
if :record is null then
   set_item_property('button',enabled,property_false);
else
      set_item_property('button',enabled,property_false);
end if;what problem is enable and disable is impacting on all the buttons in the block. in other words if first record's remarks is null then all the records button is disabled. if first record's remarks column is not null then all the records of the button column is enabled.
i have to make enable and disable the button for the corresponding record.that means if first record's remarks column is not null then only first records button should be enabled others should be disabled.
Thanks..

You need to set the No. of items displayed to 1 as Ammad had said, additionally you can set the X and Y Position (Just Y will do and having fixed X) of the button depending upon the current record.
can u explain this part alone bit more (setting the position of x and y)You need to calculate the variable Y_POS depending upon the current position of the cursor that is the current record.
You can find the current record Y_POS using combination of
V_CURRENT_RECORD := :SYSTEM.CURSOR_RECORD;
V_TOP_RECORD := GET_BLOCK_PROPERTY ('BLOCK_NAME', TOP_RECORD);
V_ITEM_Y_POS := GET_ITEM_PROPERTY ('ITEM_NAME', Y_POS);
-- Also needs to add the Y_POS of the relative other items in the muti-record block
V_HEIGHT := GET_ITEM_PROPERTY ('BUTTON_NAME', HEIGHT);
-- Note :- TOP_RECORD Returns the record number of the topmost visible record in the given block.
V_Y_POS := V_ITEM_Y_POS + ((V_CURRENT_RECORD - V_TOP_RECORD) * V_HEIGHT);
-- You will need to add Distance between Items in records if anyThen you can Set the current Y_POS of the button.
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY ('BUTTON_NAME', Y_POS, V_Y_POS);
[/code[
Hope this helps

Audio MIDI Setup Issue -- "Thru" checkbox greyed out

I received my new PowerBook (DL Superdrive) last week and transferred my files from my old PB (the final 1GHz Titanium model) over the weekend. On my TiBook, I used to plug an analogue radio into the Line In port and Apple Pro speakers (via an iFire) into the Headphones port. I then ticked the "Thru" checkbox alongside the M(aster) Volume Slider in the Audio Input section of Audio MIDI Setup (even in Tiger, once I worked out where the checkbox was -- see <http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=740942>) to listen to the radio through the external speakers and control output volume using the keyboard's volume & mute keys.
Audio MIDI Setup on the new Powerbook has some differences, however, including:
1. In the Audio Input section, the M(aster) Volume Slider IS NOT greyed out, but the "Thru" checkbox on this line IS greyed out., and the 1 & 2 Volume Sliders ARE also greyed out.
2. Clock Source is "Internal Clock" rather than [greyed out] "Default".
The first of these differences has left me unable to set up my audio as I used to. Instead, I've had to run a non-Apple audio application, LineIn, in order to achieve the same result. The trouble with this is that I've also experienced the audio stuttering loop described in <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302978>, possibly as a result of this app running.
Two questions: First, does anyone have any idea how to get Audio MIDI Setup running on the new Powerbook as it did (does) on the TiBook, so that I can dispense with LineIn?
Second, do any of the other Powerbook owners with the audio stuttering problem have similar issues with Audio MIDI Setup -- is it a common factor/symptom/cause?
PB G4 15" 1.67GHz DL SuperDrive Mac OS X (10.4.4)

The audio stuttering issue was resolved by an OS X update shortly after I posted this message, but I never did resolve the other issue, and continue to use LineIn to this day (now on a MacBook Pro C2D.

Playing recorded loops (they stay greyed out)

When recording on a loop , it creates multiple recordings, and places it on a new track. I love this functionality! However only the last loop recorded lets me play it / hear it. How do I enable the other tracks so that i can hear them (ungrey them out / enable them). Much thanks in advance for any help!
ps - I searched for this but couldnt fund any relevant results

Timothy, this has nothing to do with this topic.

Billing block is greyed out

Hi Friends,
Businmess does not want to create invoice for sales order. So they went back and cancelled the invoice, now in VA02 sales order billing block is coming greyed out.
Why it is coming greyed out?
How can I put billing block to the sales order?
Regards
Ashu

In normal circumstances, once you have generated a billing document and cancelled, you can still be able to assign billing block which would be in editable mode only. I feel, in your case, some exit is applied. Alternatively, you can assign Reason for Rejection for that line item.
thanks

How to grey out the values in checkbox?

Hi,
In my library application, a "borrow book" page is available. This page displays all the books available in the library in the form of check boxes, if the available count is "0" in the database, that book will not be displayed, but ideally this is not a good apporach. I want all the books to be displayed, but the books which has the available count as "0" in the database should be greyed out, by doing this the users can see all the books available in the library, but they cannot select the "unavailable books". I have no clue, how to get this done, can someone please help me to resolve this issue.

Hi Suzi,
I would suggest not rendering a checkbox if it is not required.
Otherwise, add the attribute disabled="disabled" (this may not work in all browsers).
Regards
Michael

I have downloaded Mountain Lion and Time Machine says that my Free Agent Goflex (Seagate) external 2gb drive cannot be used as it is read only. I tried disc utility to repair permissions but that block is greyed out. The disc verifies as being OKI

Since installing Mountain Lion, Time Machine says says that my Free Agent Goflex (Seagate) external 2gb drive cannot be used as it is read only. I tried disc utility to repair permissions but that block is greyed out. The disc verifies as being OKI What next?

Ok, I solved this problem! I ejected the drive and then disconnected it both from the power supply and the USB connector. I then reconnected everything and powered it up again and Then went into TM preferences and chose the drive as the backup. TM did a new backup (well over an hour) and now works as advertised.

I used a usb turntable to import old vinyl records into iTunes. Then with the cloud and iTunes match I put them on another Mac. The songs come up in the music list but they are greyed out. How do I get them recognized.

I used a usb turntable to import old vinyl records into iTunes. Then with the cloud and iTunes match I put them on another Mac. The songs come up in the music list but they are greyed out. How do I get them recognized. The symbol states the songs were downloaded from iCloud. I would like to get them to play so that I can make a playlist, and burn a CD.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

How do I turn off pop-up blocker on new iPad if it is "greyed out" in safari settings?

How do I turn off pop-up blocker on new iPad if it is "greyed out" in safari settings?

'''Diego Victor''', this is for Firefox on Android. The Tools->Options is for Firefox on Windows only.
I think the only way still that you can turn of popup blocker on Android version is in '''about:config'''
Try this.
Type '''about:config''' in the Location (address) bar and filter for '''dom.disable_open_during_load''' and set it to '''false'''.
After you are done you should enable the popup blocker again.

Approved checkbox on Purchase Order greyed out

Hi Experts,
What would cause the Approved checkbox on the logistics tab of a Purchase Order to be 'greyed out'?
My customer has a few users who cannot update this field. I have tried to replicate the issue locally on my database using various scenarios but cannot replicate the issue.
What might be causing this?
Thanks
Greig

Hai!
Please verify this..
1.Open Admin->Sys init-> Documen settings
2. select Per Document tab.
3. select Purcahse order from the list of docs.
4. check the Purcahse Order Approved
5. The Problem for gray out is user Authorization.
6. If, the first 4 steps done there will not need for Authorization to enable the field.
7. If, u want to enable the field, give authorization to sales A/R -> Document Confirmation.
This can be done only if u r not using approval procedure for PO.If, u use then PO will save as unproved only and check box will gray out.

Master Boot Record is greyed out, so how to use?

How do I use Master Boot Record (in Mountain Lion, to partition an external Seagate Backup+ hard drive) when it is greyed out and I can't choose it? I tried turning off Time Machine, but that didn't do anything. I also tried installing various Seagate software (like HFS4Win.exe) because what I really want to do is use one partition on the drive as back up when I'm using the Mac OS, and the second partition as back up when I'm in Windows 7 (with maybe a third partition for storage for either/both - it's 3tb). I've spent a few days at the Seagate page and nothing suggested there works, but re-formatting the drive with Master Boot Recorded sounds promising, and it won't let me!
If anyone has a solution please let me know! I'm reasonably adept!

Hi Lee,
If "Manage Catalog" option is greyed-out, it may be possible that you are in the "eLive" room. As in "eLive", most of the File option are displayed.
Switch to "Media" room, the option "Manage Catalog" will be enabled.
Then, please follow the steps mentioned in the article to convert the catalog Elements Organizer Help | Creating and editing catalogs.
Please let me know if you need any other assistance.
