Hiding the Comments in SE38 Display Mode

Hi Folks,
Is it possible to Hide the comments when a program is seen in uneditable mode either in SE38 or SE80.I am using 4.7.
If not in 4.7 kindly let me know if any of the upcoming versions have this facility.
Thanks,
K.Kiran.

Its impossible to hide the comments in 4.7.
Even in ECC 6.0/ABAP new editor its not possible but you can change the color of the comment. You can hide it by selecting White as the foreground and background color, but it will show the comment lines as empty lines.
Note that even that can be viewed by selecting the empty lines using mouse.
May we know why you want to hide the comments?
Regards

Hi Pooja,
I assume your query is on identifying job ID in display mode
To find out that, goto sm37, execute it and double click on
the job, and then click on job details, you will get the
job id (job number) in display mode

Make only the new row in a table editable and other rows display mode.

Hiii all,
I am working on the component GSWISET, there is a table view for substitutes, the requirement is to show all the rows in the table view in display mode. Whenever the user clicks the button (Add employee), a search popup triggers and the user selects an employee from that and it will come as a new row in the table view. Here I need to be able to make only the new row editable and all the other rows in display mode.
Could you please suggest a way to achieve this. Thanks for your time..

Performance Issues with Debugging even in Display Mode

Hi not certain if this would sit in Security, ABAP or Basis, but lets start here as it is security related.
S_DEVELOP with any activity on DEBUG on a production system is a concern, but what are the performance related issues when a super user has to go into debug in display only on a production system because of a really complex issue?
I've heard in the past of a scenario where system performance was impacted, and we have notes around the allocation of S_DEVELOP display DEBUG access to this point. (I've summarised these below)
The risk with debug is associated with the length of time that the actual debugging process is being performed.
u2022 Work processes are dedicated solely to the users for the duration of the debug. If these are being performed for a long time, these can cause issues with not enough work processes being available.
u2022 It can cause DB2 locks. If the debug session last awhile, DB2 locks are not released. This impacts the availability of tablespaces, thus, affecting various transactions running across the system.
Even with these concerns, security will often get asked for debug display access.
As security is about risk identification, assessment and then controlled access what do other organisations do?
Options (not exhaustive) are "No Debug ever" or "Debug display only via a fire fight or super user on a time limited basis".
We are currently in the "debug display only via fire fight" camp, but would like to canvas opinion on this.
As one of the concepts of security is Availability of data (and to an extent ensuring the systems are up and running) do the performance risks push the security function to the "No Debug Ever" stance.

If you need to debug in production, then 9 times out of 10 you need to do root-cause analysis: The developer is the problem.
Writing sloppy code and not testing properly should not be an excuse for debugging in production.
But of course, there are exceptions even when you do try to keep them to a minimum.
To add to Jurjen's comments, also note that the debugger only has a limited capability of doing a rollback. So you can quite easily and unintentionally create inconsistencies in the system - also in display mode - which is an integrity problem, and typically more critical than availability problems or even potential confidentiality concerns.
Cheers,
Julius

How do I get Windows 7 to display in Target Display Mode on IMac

I am increasingly frustrated by my inbability to get my Mac Mini running Windows 7 to display on my late 2013 27" IMac using Target Display mode.
My setup:
1. IMac 27" Late 2013 running OSX 10.9.2 with all the latest drivers as of Mar 7, 2014.
2. Mac Mini Server Mid 2011 running Windows 7 SP1, 64bit, all the latest Windows drivers as of 3/7/14, using the latest BootCamp Drivers for this machine, ver 5.1 downloaded 3/5/14 to this machine using Boot Camp utilities in its OSX mode.
3. Connected via Apple Thunderbolt cable.
My process is as follows:
a. Turn on the IMac, boot up in the normal manner, preparing it to run in Target Disk Mode in OSX.
b. Turn on the MacMini boot up via BootCamp, in the normal manner in to Windows 7.
c. When Both machines are on and connected via their Thunderbolt ports, I enter cmd-F2 on the IMac keyboard to enter Target Disk Mode.
Nothing happens.
I use this IMac to display my MacBook Pro in OSX, so I know it is working, but I can't see where the problem is.
I have reviewed all of the Apple support information and followed it explicitly, to no avail.
When I have called the Apple support team, I get little help, they assert that they can't troubleshoot because it is not all Apple hardware/software (everything including the Thunderbolt cable is Apple except for the Windows OS)
Any suggestions will be welcome...
Thanks!

I have finally achieved some clarity on how Target Display Mode works, or rather doesn't work.
And I have been mistaken in some of my prior comments.
Target Display Mode is a function of the host machine, at this point only the IMacs. And it is only available when the host machine is running OSX.
But the most recent Thunderbolt versions of the IMac have been significantly dumbed down in this functionality.
The prior generation of IMacs whose video was supported through the Mini Display Port supported almost any input from a Mini Display Port compliant Computer through the use of various mechanical adapters, and certainly from any Mac Hardware or software combination. It was a very versatile setup, and the IMac in this manner could serve as an absoloutely beautiful monitor for a wide variety of hardware/software combinations.
When the current version of the IMac was deployed using the Thunderbolt ports for input for external video, we apparently left a world of standards based video input and entered the world of Apple proprietary video.
The current model of IMacs with thunderbolt video have a very limited functionality in Target Display Mode compared to those of us who have used it previously. and it only functions when the client machine is running OSX.
No other video input from any source will display.
I am not quite clear on the reasons one would want to display OSX on an OSX native machine, but you can do it. I guess MacBook Pro or Air running OSX will now display on the IMac if that is your need.
Likely the most likely need for Target Display Mode for the rest of us is to run Windows on an external machine and display the video on the IMac, as we have been able to do with the prior generations of IMacs for several years now.
Apple has been unwilling to distribute the technical specifications of its video input requirements in Target Display Mode, (other than to assert it requires OSX), and these technical specifications appear to be proprietary.
I have personally unsuccessfully tried to display the output from both Windows 7 and a Windows 8 machines running from a Windows thunderbolt port into a thunderbolt port on a current model IMac using Target Display Mode.
Unfortunately, there are still a few applications that won't work in Mac world and require a native Windows machine. My current need is to run Dragon Naturally Speaking via Citrix to a remote Citrix server and a Windows app. Parallels and VMWare Fusion do not work, nor does the OSX version of Dragon Dictate function via Citrix. So I am stuck.
I hope that Apple, so long a leader in technology, will restore the functionality it abandoned when it embraced thunderbolt as its only video iniput in Target Display Mode.
Thanks!

Apple Mini DVI to DVI Adapter to connect Win7 tower to iMac / Target Display Mode

I currently run Windows on bootcamp on the iMac (Mid-2011), although the tasks I perform (3D modelling, rendering and such) cause the Mac to get very hot, and as a result hae a slight burn mark on the LED LCD screen.
I am buying a Windows machine, and am to uninstall bootcamp and use the Mac purely for OSX, but use the iMac screen as a monitor for the tower using Target Display Mode. My issue is - the Windows 7 tower only has DVI output. And as I understand, the Mid-2011 iMac only supports Target Display Mode via a thunderbolt cable.
My question is - Will the Apple Mini DVI to DVI adapter allow me to connect the DVI-only tower to the iMac? Thanks in advance x

Oh, I should mention also that the iMac is the 27" model. Mid-2011 3.4Ghz Intel Core i7 with 4GB RAM and 1TB Harddrive. And ATI HD5450 1GB Graphics.

Target Display Mode iMac 27 mid 2011 with Mac Mini 2011 bootcamp

Hello,
I can't seem to use Target Display Mode with Bootcamp.
My configuration:
Imac 27" mid 2011 with osx 10.8.4
Mac Mini Server 2011 with osx 10.8.4, bootcamp 5 and Windows7
Both are connected via Apple genuine Thunderbolt cable (2m).
When I boot the Mac Mini into OSX then Target Display Mode works perfectly and I can see the osx installed on the Mac Mini on the iMac display.
However, when I reboot the Mac Mini into Bootcamp (windows7 x64) I can't put the iMac in Targt Display Mode and get to see Windows 7 on my iMac screen.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3924#8
The following article says that this should work, however once I reboot osx on the Mac Mini the iMac leaves Target Display Mode immediatly and will not return to Target Display Mode.
Any advice? I contacted Apple Support and a Sr. Enginner said it should be supported and he's checking with a higher tier.
Thanks

Yes, it does.

- Can switch between PC only, Duplicate, Extend display
Question:
- What is wrong?
- What can be done to idenify the root cause?
Kind regards, Marcel.

Hello Marcel,
It sounds like you are wanting to use the iMac in Target Display mode with your PC. Target Display mode is a feature that is supported from one Mac to another Mac according to this article:
OS X Mavericks: Use another Mac as a display
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14264
Target Display Mode lets you use a Mac as the external display for another, “primary” Mac.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Hi Vengalrao,
The Create, Change and Delete option in Zform are coming disabled because the original language in which the form was copied or created would be different than the language in which you are trying to edit.
You can only make changes in elements in forms original language only.
Revert in case i am not clear.

No sound on iMac in target display mode

I've got a late 2009 27" iMac running Yosemite.
When I connect either my MBP (Yosemite, late 2011 15") or my wife's rMBP (Mavericks, 2012 15") to the iMac using a mini Display Port cable and switch the iMac to target display mode using Cmd-F2, sound no longer works.
Previously, when the iMac was running Mavericks, the laptops would route sound to the iMac via HDMI audio (I think) on the mDP cable and sound would be output via the iMac speakers or headphones attached to the iMac. Since upgrading the iMac to Yosemite, sound no longer plays.
This occurs regardless of the laptop OS, Mavericks or Yosemite. The sound icon on the laptop get greyed out and shows that it is going to the "Color LCD" but no sound is output via the iMac.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Humm... I might go TosLink between the iMac and the FastTrack and then run the USB connection to the MacBook Pro when your using it in Target Display Mode.
Or vise Versa, leave the USB connected to the iMac and use the TosLink connection for the MacBook Pro.

How to activate Target Display Mode on iMac 27", Late 2009?

Hi all,
I'm trying to use my iMac as a display for my PC. Unfortunately I can't activate the iMac's Target Display Mode (TDM) through a DVI-to-miniDisplayPort cable.
As far as I know, the TDM exists on my iMac (27 inch, Late 2009).
I am following these steps:
(1) start the iMac,
(2) start the PC,
(3) press Cmd+F2,
but nothing happens on the iMac (as if I didn't press anything).
The PC's DVI output works on another screen, though.
Here are my settings:
- iMac: 27 inch, Late 2009, 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 with miniDisplayPort, OS X 10.8.4 (12E55)
- PC: Gigabyte's GTX 770 graphic card with DVI-I output, Windows 8 fully updated
- between the two: DVI-D cable plugged into Apple's DVI-to-miniDiplayPort adapter
Any advice?
Thanks a lot :-)

Please very carefully read:
support.apple.com/kb/ht3924
In it you will see that TDM only works on a late 2009 iMac in Mini Display Port to Mini Display Port, no other configurations will work. If your iMac is an early 2009 iMac (please check the Tech Specs for each on Apple's website) TDM is not supported on that model.

Select-options in display mode

Hi
How to set the SELECT-OPTIONS in display mode by default
regards
Srinivas

hiii
for every LOW and HIGH value of select option you can use a code like given below..
First initialize your select option with some values then use following code
AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT .
IF s_docno IS NOT INITIAL .
    LOOP AT SCREEN.
      IF screen-name CS 's_docno'.
       screen-input = 0.
        MODIFY SCREEN.
      ENDIF.                           " IF screen-name CS 'p_docno'.
    ENDLOOP.                           " LOOP AT SCREEN.

Brightness iMac in target display mode: who has it working in 10.6.8?

"With Target Display mode, you can use your iMac (27-inch, Mid 2010) or iMac (27-inch, Late 2009) with Mac OS X as an external display.": http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3924 . "Use the keyboard of the 27-inch iMac to adjust display brightness and sound volume and to control media playback of applications running on the 27-inch iMac in Target Display mode."
This used to work perfectly for me. But under 10.6.8, the brightness control stopped working. Sound and media control still work as expected. I posted before on this.
Now I know more people are experiencing this problem... I am looking for people who DO have it working under 10.6.8!
I'm looking for anything I can do to get it to work, maybe the info from people who have it working gives me some clues.
Lion is just around the corner. Please let me know if Lion fixes this problem for you.
Thanks!
Maarten

I'm using two 27" imacs and one of them is still on 10.6.8 one has been upgraded to Lion just now.
I thought it was the Lion update which caused this issue for me because I installed 10.6.8 on both of them today as well.
Now I can't adjust the brightness in target display mode on either 27" imac.... worse that that it sets it to full brightness too.
I don't know of I want to try to go back to before 10.6.8 with time machine, talk about gutted ?
can you use monitor calibration as a work around ?
I found TS3919 but it doesn't work BTW , it says to set the brigthness before entering target display mode..
