Hiding Cell Value in a Table

If a cell in a table is less than a certain value how do you make that hidden? Which then also means if a cell value is greater than a certain value it can be seen.

Hi,
Are Row6.ph2 and Row7.Cell3 numeric fields ?
It seems that you're using Javascript. In this case, you should access the value of a field using rawValue (ie Row6.ph2.rawValue).
You also need to give a relative (this.parent ...) or absolute path (xfa.resolveNode("form.table.Row7")) to access Row6 and Row7, for example :
this.rawValue=(Number(this.parent.Row6.ph2.rawValue) + Number(this.parent.Row7.Cell3.rawValue));
if Row6 and Row7 are in the same subform as the total field.
After testing the script quickly, it seems that if you put the rest of the script in the layoutReady event, it works fine.
if (this.rawValue <8) {
     this.presence = "hidden";
} else {
     this.rawValue = this.rawValue - 8;
     this.presence = "visible";
I don't really know why it doesn't work in the calculate event, there is no error in the javascript console ...
Anyway, be careful with the layoutReady event though, because if you have a really big form and a lot of script in this event, this could slow the execution / display of your form.

Get cell value from Woodstock table

Hello,
I am using a Woodstock Basic Table from the NB palette.
One of the columns is editable and I need to get the updated values upon a button click event.
How do I get the value of a specific cell from the table?
Thanks

Hi Rajashekar ,
here is the code :
// Get a handle to the table footer bean
OATableBean tableBean = ...;
OATableFooterBean tableFooterBean = tableBean.getFooter();
if (tableFooterBean != null)
// Get a handle to the total row bean
OATotalRowBean totalRowBean = tableFooterBean.getTotal();

How can we give the option to edit the cell value of a table to user

i have a Jtable which shows the entered values of all the expenses daily.Before saving them i want to provide an option to user for editing.How this is possible.
I went through the TableCellEditor interface .I think it needs to be implemented some code there.
help me out in implementing those methods.

Might I suggest reading the JTable tutorial? And/Or perhaps purchasing a book on swing?

Change background color of a table based on table cell values quickly.

Is there a more effecient way to change the background color of a table based on the cell values of the table?
I can do this cell-by-cell using the property node, but it is very slow. It helps a little by deferring panel update, but it is still slow. Is there a better way?
Thanks.
Ian

If you want to color each cell according to the value, you need to do it one cell at a time and the above answers don't apply.
You can dramatically speed up things by defering front panel updates for the duration of the operation.
(sample code can be seen in the top picture here)
EDIT: I noticed you tried this already. Can you show us your code?
How many cells need to be colored on average? If there are not that many, first write the background color using -2,-2, the only write the few cells to be colored, skipping the rest.
How big is the table? If it is much bigger than the table indicator, all you need is to color the visible parts whenever the data or the scroll position changes.

Can I use a cell value to reference a table on another sheet?

I'm not sure if this is possible and I have had no luck with searches, here is what I am attempting to do...
On my first sheet I have a number of tables, each holding information on a service. Each table is named to match the service name.
On another sheet I have a list of clients that use these services, with the service name (to match the table name on the first sheet) in a cell in the client's row.
I would like to pull data from one of the cells on the Service table to include it in a concatenate formula in the clients row.
I was hoping to be able to use the value of the cell with the service name in it as part of the formula to reference the service sheet...
For example:
="something"&Services::B2::C6&"something"
Is this possible, or is there a way I can work around the auto corrections that numbers keeps applying?
Cheers

you can construct the text of a cell reference as a string by concatenating information then use the function indirect() to turn the string into a reference.
so you would do something like:
=indirect("something"&Services::B2::C6&"something")
this is assuming that "something"&Services::B2::C6&"something" results in a string that would be a valid reference.

Get Current Selected Cell Value in an af:table

Using JDeveloper 11.1.1.3.0
I currently have a requirement where i need to call a server method and pass the value of the current selected Cell value in my af:table.
The reason why i can't just make use of the currentSelectedRow is because i have a set of Columns (NumericValue1,NumericValue12,...NumericValue1n) and my server method can't really tell which cell i picked.
So far, what i did is that i utilized F. Nimphius's article about using contextMenu and passing a clientAttribute.
Re: How to pass parameter to inline popup when mouse over
I'm hoping to do the same thing but without raising a popup on right click. So basically, i'm hoping to select an outputText in the table and this value will be stored in a pageFlowScopeBean.
Has anybody encountered something similar?
Thanks.

Hi Barbara,
You're aproach sounds intersting.
So you mean to say, i'll create a component which has a bindings to my pageDefinition which needs to have it's clientComponent attribute set to true i believe so that my javascript can find this component.
Then, i'll write a javascript that handles the focus event which then stores the clientAttribute value and stores that in the hidden component mentioned earlier. I'm guessing that once i set the newValue to the hidden component, it should be posted to the pageDef bindings upon hitting server side calls.
I'll try this out and give an update on it.

Fill in blank cells of a Pivot Table Value field area

Hi,
In this workbook (http://1drv.ms/1oHk0QV), a normal Pivot Table has been created on the "Pivot Table" worksheet. I'd like the blank cells of the Pivot Table to be filled up with the preceding non blank
value. So to take an example of Product A, the following is what I want:
1. H5:N5 should have 1
2. P5:S5 should have 2
3. U5:W5 should have 2
4. Y5:BA5 should have 3
The same should be done for the others as well.
I have attempted something on the "PowerPivot" worksheet but I do not get the correct result.
Please help.
Regards, Ashish Mathur Microsoft Excel MVP www.ashishmathur.com

there you go:
YourMeasure:=CALCULATE([State value],
LASTNONBLANK(FILTER(ALL(Table2[Week]), Table2[Week] <= MAX(Table2[Week])), [State value])
it basically finds the last week with a valid [State Value] and shows it

I am using a table in Numbers to plot daily graph lines. Mood swings of how I am on the day, i"m a depressive.
If I fill a cell with a step box at say zero it plots the graph. I can't actually set the cell value until the actual day but the graph plots it at zero when I don't want it to plot anything. Is there a work around. so thatbgraph only plots on the day?

The answer is (sort of) in your subject, but edited out of the problem statement in the body of your message.
When you use a stepper or a slider, the value in the cell is always numeric, and is always placed on the chart if that cell is included in the range graphed by the chart.
But if you use a pop-up menu cell, you can specify numeric or text values in the list of choices for in the menu. Numeric values will be shown on the chart. Text values will not.
For the example, the values list for the pop-up menu was:
5
3
1
Choose
-1
-3
-5
The first pop-up was set to display Choose, then the cell was filled down the rest of the column. Any text value (including a single space, if you want the cell to appear blank) may be used instead of Choose.
For charts with negative Y values, the X axis will not automatically appear at Y=0. If your value set will include negative values, I would suggest setting the Y axis maximum and minimum to the maximum and minimum values on your menu list, rather than letting Numbers decide what range to include on the chart. Place a line shape across the chart at the zero level, and choose to NOT show the X axis.

Barry

Tables - How to get cell value? How to get/set UI controls properties?

Hi,
I want to get a the cell's value of row x and col y.
The table is not bounded so I cannot use:
Table1.Items(key).DataSourceRow.DataItem("ColID")
Another question:
How to I set the properties of a table column which contains UI elemtents that I create dynamically?
for exmpale:
c1 is a TableBodyCell
tr is a tableRow
c1 = New TableBodyCell(Table1, tr, 0)
c1.TableCellContent = New InputField
tr.Cells.Add(c1)
How do I set/get the properties of the InputField?
Thanks,
Omri

Thanks Reshef,
My Table's scheme:
Column 0 - TextView
Column 1 - InputField
I was able to get a cell value of type TextView by using what you suggested:
Write(CType(Table1.Items(0).Cells(0).TableCellContent,TextView).Text)
However, when I tried to do the exact thing to InputField I didn't get any value (nor error)
Write(CType(Table1.Items(0).Cells(1).TableCellContent, InputField).Value)
I fill the Input Field and then push "Execute" button which supposed to write the value.
About my second question:
By using the cast (CType) I can access the properties I need (like Width) so it kind of solve my problem.
for example:
CType(Table1.Items(1).Cells(1).TableCellContent, InputField).Width = "15px"

JTable Cell Value needs to hided

Hi,
I have 5 columns in a JTable. The first column is a checkbox. The second column is non editable. The third, fourth and fifth columns are editable. Whan I click a check box, I am performing a database operation and based on the output, I am setting values to for the column 3, 4 and 5.
My requirement: I need to perform the database operation only for the first time of the check box click. If I uncheck the checkbox, the values in column 3, 4 and 5 needs to be disappeared. If I check the check box again, I need the values to be visible. Basically, I will do database calls only for the first time. From second time onwards, I need to just hide the text in the particular cells (if the checkbox is unchecked) and make the cell values visible (if the checkbox is checked) In JTable API, there are no methods to hide a cell value or I am unable to figure it out. Please help me.
Regards
subbu

Alirght here is some code. This is a bit messy but I guess the solution is clear. It make use of a combination of renderers, ie the Sun's DefaultTableCellRenderer (for the first column to get the checkboxes) and a custom renderer for the rest of the columns.
Also, a MouseListener is added so that on clicking the first column, a repaint is forced to ensure the values in the cells disappear.

Cannot replicate the ring cells' value list on a table

Hi,
I am trying to create a variable-size table/matrix of ring cells. The default value list is "0 (x)" and "1(P)", for binary purpose, specified in cell (1,1). When I insert a new row and/or colum on the table, It looks like the inserted cells does not inherit the specified value list "0 (x)" and "1(P)" from cell (1,1).
I have also tried the following options, but none of them works.
(1) change the Table Mode (Edit Table -> Control Settings -> Table Mode) to either "row" or "column" from "grid"
(2) use the parameter "VAL_USE_MASTER_CELL_TYPE" instead of ring type
(3) search the forum but not clue found
Please also see the attached snapshot files, which show how the settings are set.
(1) "snapshots_02_ring_list.jgp": specify the ring value list of cell(1,1)
(2) "snapshots_03_edit_default_cell_values.jpg": I tried also to specify the default cell values in Control Settings (Edit Table -> Control Settings -> Edit Default Cell Values -> Ring/Combo Box Attributes), but the button "Value List" is greyed out.
(3) "snapshot_04_cells.jpg": the created/inserted cells do not have the value lists
Here is the code piece for your information:
// insert a few rows
InsertTableRows(panel,PANEL_TABLE_CHKBRD, (iNumOfRowNow+1),iNumOfRowChange, VAL_USE_MASTER_CELL_TYPE);
// draw the cells
ProcessDrawEvents();
// set the active row
SetCtrlAttribute(panel, PANEL_TABLE_CHKBRD,ATTR_FIRST_VISIBLE_ROW, iNumOfRowNew);
Thanks.

You cannot inherit the ring values of a cell. This is why the Value List button is dimmed when you edit the default cell values of a column in the UI Editor.
You can use the InsertTableCellRingItem function to programmatically create the value list of any new cells that you add to the table. Or the InsertTableCellRangeRingItem function, if you want to do the same thing for multiple cells at once.
By the way, for items that can be inherited (i.e. cell attributes, as Wolfgang put it), inheritance does not happen from one cell to another. Depending on the table mode, inheritance happens from a column's default cell to new cells under that column, or from a row's default cell to new cells on that row, or from the table's default cell to all new cells.

Hiding a cell value in Jtable

Is it possible to hide a cell value in a JTable?. The value should be present in the JTable but just hidden
tnx

Yes, there are a few ways to do this. I'm sure there are others, but here are 2 quick ways:
1. When the cell value (Object ) is being rendered, it's toString() method is called. Create a subclass of whatever Object you are using in cells and override the toString() method.
2. Create you own cell renderer and then you can renderer the contents of a cell however you wish.

Can we get a cell from sap.m.table i.e. row-column value on Click?

Hi All,
we are looking for a requirement where if a user clicks on a particular text(cell) displayed in a table, we should be able to change the color of that text(cell) only.
Can we achieve this in SAPUI5 ?
Any help is greatly appreciated

here is the exact solution which i applied:
Thanks to Dennis Seah code modification was negligible .
In onInit() function i placed the method which takes the cell on which the user clicked and stores it in the variable $o (line 26, $o is global variable).
   2. Replace tableID with your table's ID.
onInit : function() {
view = this.getView();
var oTable = view.byId('tableID');
oTable.onAfterRendering = function() {
if (sap.m.Table.prototype.onAfterRendering) {
sap.m.Table.prototype.onAfterRendering.apply(this);
var tbl = this;
tbl.selectedCell = null;
var items = this.getItems();
for ( var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
var item = items[i];
var path = item.getBindingContext().getPath();
var cells = item.getAggregation('cells');
for ( var j = 0; j < cells.length; j++) {
var cell = cells[j];
var $cell = cell.$();
$cell.attr('path', path);
$cell.attr('bindName',cell.mBindingInfos.text.parts[0].path);
var $parent = $cell.parent();
$parent.css('cursor', 'pointer');
$parent.click(function() {
if (tbl.selectedCell) {
       tbl.selectedCell.css('color', '');
$o = $(this).find('span');
var obj = tbl.getModel().getProperty($o.attr('path'));
sap.m.MessageToast.show(obj[$o.attr('bindName')]);
tbl.selectedCell = $o;
   3. then in changeColor function i use the code to change the color of the cell
changeColor: function() {
$o.css('color', 'red');

First Cell value in the first row of the structure not getting displayed

Hi Friends,
We've got one structure at rows level, there as per our requirement i've taken around 12 "New Selections", that's ok i'm getting everthing fine, but whatever the new selection i put on the top of that structure in that, the First Cell Value for the first column not getting displayed...
I'm really wondering, this is the first time that i'm facing this kind of problem... what might be the reason & what is the solution for that...
just awaiting for your inputs...
Regards,
Balaji Reddy K.

There is no declarative way to do this as the table rows are stamped. This means there is no way to can access a value like (row+1).attributename
So there is some coding needed. Check http://lucbors.blogspot.de/2012/02/adf-11g-fancy-master-detail-or-how-to.html and http://lucbors.blogspot.de/2012/02/adf-11g-even-fancier-multi-master-multi.html which might help you to implement your case.
