How to change content/stacked canvases to tabs

Hi all,
I have created a form which has one content canvas and multiple stacked canvases. The content canvas displays the first page and then we hv to click on next to go to the next stacked canvas and so on (I have about 10-12 canvases, 1 being content and the rest being stacked). I now want to make all those canvases as tab canvas so that it can be very easy going to any canvas. Right now, at runtime, if I'm on the 8th canvas and need to make some changes in the first canvas, I have to click on the back button all the way till I reach the first canvas. So I desperately need to change my canvases to tabs.
Can you guys please give me a detailed instruction on how to convert my content and stacked canvases to tab canvases. I have never worked on tab canvas. I tried one, I changed one of my present stacked canvas to tab but all the fields and texts were gone and there were just two tabs in it.
Please suggest. Thanks to all in advance.

Thanks for replying. I just need to move the items to the new tab canvas but everything else would be the same, right. I mean, will I need to write new codes? Can you point me to any documentation on this. Thanks.

I want to try making it in tabs (tab canvas) and then I will decide which one looks better and performs good.

  • af:panelPage how to change "Content here" when I click tab1, tab2, etc.

    [I can only find this forum. If you have forums for JSF and/or ADF give me URL.]
    Hi.
    I don't understand <af:panelPage> and how to change view when I click tabs or items?
    I did look at source, docs, and panelPage.jspx, but I still doesn't understand.
    I know panelPage have <f:facet name="menu1"> for tabs and <af:menuTabs>
    <af:commandMenuItem text="tab 1" action="guide.menuTabs"/> which point to
    <navigation-case>
    <from-outcome>guide.menuTabs</from-outcome>
    <to-view-id>/components/menuTabs.jspx</to-view-id>
    <redirect/>
    </navigation-case>
    but how to stay in same page with different tab view?
    I have adf-faces-ea13.zip and I install example components war in Tomcat.
    You develop great components!!!!
    When I open
    http://localhost:8080/adf-faces-demo_ea13/faces/components/panelPage.jspx
    and click any tab 1-6 I get new page/view, URL is
    http://localhost:8080/adf-faces-demo_ea13/faces/components/menuTabs.jspx.
    How can I get new content within same page (panelPage.jspx), only that that tab become selected (blue) and show content for that tab?
    Same question for item 1-4?
    When I click any item 1-4, view are redirected to
    http://localhost:8080/adf-faces-demo_ea13/faces/components/menuList.jspx?
    How can I stay in same page but with different "Content here"?
    What can I use for "Content here" when I click tabs or items?
    Included (f:subview) JSF/JSP pages or you suggest something else?
    And what to use with subview:
    1)<%@ include file="header.jsp"% >
    2)<jsp:include page="header.jsp"/>
    3)<c:import url="header.jsp"/>

  • How to change the text of customer tab in Me23n

    Hi
    I have added new customer tab in Me23n at item level.
    Its text is Customer Data.
    I would like to change to some other text.
    How to change the text of customer tab in Me23n
    Regards
    Amruta

    Amruta,
    I had the same query today and finally found the answer.
    In order to change the title text or description of the "Customer Data" tab in ME23N, etc. you need to define a new text symbol in program SAPLXM06. The text symbol must be number 111 for the PO data. Make sure you define this text symbol in the language you are using when viewing the PO. I had issues with this as the original language of object SAPXM06 is not my logon language.
    The standard code which picks up this text is in function module MEGUI_BUILD_PO_ITEM_PLUGIN. I could not find any documentation around this functionality.
    Hope this helps!

  • How to place content between header and tabs?????

    i have header part which has to be constant through out the portal but below that i have 3 links
    like I AM employee,employer,broker..
    which has to be shown only in home page above tabs..
    how can i achieve this..
    how to place content between header and tabs..:(kindly help..

    Hi Samiran
    Try these approaches and see if that works.
    1. In the Header Section, you header footer shell and add a Header Portlet. This Header Portlet associated JSP file will have all static content in the top section. In the bottom section, add these 3 links say to right hand corner. Show these links only based on some request property like isHome. Now for the main book having Home and other page associate a BackingFile. Within this backing file in the lifecycle methods like preRender or handlePostBack, get instance of BookManager and all the pages and see which page is Active. For that active page check its page definition label which will be always unique. IF the page def label is like home_page_def (this is page def label you give for home page), then set the key value in the request property like isHome=true. By only doubt is after Book backingfile is triggered, the header has to be reloaded, because only then it can pick up the request attributes.
    2. Create a brand new portlet like HomePageLinks portlet. Make its Title Property Not Visible, and other user interface properties like NoBorder, NoTheme etc. The associated JSP will have the 3 links you mentioned right aligned. You can use css styles to make it right etc. Now drop this portlet in the Header Shell area. You already have HeaderPortlet in the top, below that you will have this HomePageLinks portlet. Now associate a backing file for this Portlet to show, only if the Books current active page is Home page by comparing the def label etc as mentioned above.
    In both scenarios, only concern is when we click on different Pages, the entire portal has to be rendered right from the Top Header. Only then the backing file will set the key, and the HomePageLinks portlet can show or hide accordingly.
    Try firing an Event when the Home page is clicked. This listener for this Event can be the HomePageLinks Portlet. I guess Event mechanism should work irrespective of where the portlet is placed. In the event listner, see if you can show/hide this portlet.
    The only challenge is Header section needs to reloaded everytime you click on a Tab.
    Start putting some backing files and System.out.printlns to see if the Header section gets reloaded on click on any Tabs.
    These are just my thoughts over the top of my head. Other forum users can have better alternatives or a different version of above approaches.
    Thanks

  • Calling stacked canvases from tab pages

    Hi,
    I am creating custom forms from TEMPLATE.fmb in Forms Developer 6i. The main form has various tab pages on a tab canvas for different functionalities. Now, I have some very large stacked canvases which I want to be called by clicking on a tab. Most of the tab pages fit in the given dimensions for the tab canvas but the bigger ones are a problem. Please help me in trying to link those canvases with the tabs on the canvas.
    Thanks.

    Use When-Tab-Page-Changed trigger.
    If :SYSTEM.TAB_NEW_PAGE = 'TAB1'
    then
    show_view('view_on_tab1');
    elsif :SYSTEM.TAB_NEW_PAGE = 'TAB2'
    then
    show_view('view_on_tab2');

  • How to change the order of the tabs in featured news?

    Hi,
      I use the 'Featured News' widget on my company website and it has 10 tabs. The newest item is at the top but when I add a new tab it goes to the bottom and I can find no way of changing the order of the tabs so that everytime I add new news I have to copy each tab and it's content down one place in order to get an empty tab at the top to put the new news item in. This takes an unneccesssarily long period of time. Can someone please let me know if there is an easy way to change the order of the tabs?
      Thanks very much ;0)
            Justine

    Just click on the title tab until it is isolated (one click before the text is highlighted) and move the tab to the position you want.
    Thanks for your reply. I've done this in the past but found that the position of the tab in terms of it's place in the hierachy doesn't change so if I move the top tab down one, the way you've described and then upload the page I find that the second tab down (which was the first previously) displays first. How can I change the 'position of the tabs interms of their hierachy in the widget?
      Thanks again

  • Scrollable stacked canvases on tab pages

    I am in the design phase of a project and I have been building some 'mock-up'screens for the user to review. I have been trying to build a form which has a scrollable canvas stacked on a tab page.
    This works fine, however there is a dynamic element to the page which is controlled by selection of a radio button, which displays another stacked canvas on top of the first one.
    This all works well and good, until you try and scroll the first stacked canvas by its scroll bar. The content of the stacked canvas scrolls ok, but the second stacked canvas remains in situ and doesn't move.
    I have trawled all the online documentation and both the Metalink and Technet fora, but can't find any guidance on this.
    Am I trying to acheive something which Forms 6i can't do, or is there a bug, or am I missing something?
    For your information here is what I'm running:
    Forms: 6.0.8.8.0
    WinNT: 4.0 SP5
    RDBMS: 8.1.6.0
    Here's a schematic of the form I'm trying to build....
    | Content Canvas !
    -------------+ !
    ! tab1 ! tab2 ! !
    !------+ +------------------------------!
    ! ! Stacked canvas (scrollable) ^ ! !
    ! ! Radio Group (o) ( ) # ! !
    ! ! ! Stacked canvas (dynamic) ! # ! !
    ! ! ! Hidden or Displayed depending ! # ! !

    <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by carusab ():
    I think a stacked canvas "stays put",
    a stacked canvas has no relation to
    another canvas so it will not "know" that
    its "parent" canvas has moved.
    I wish there were a WHEN-SCROLLBAR-* trigger
    and that scrollbars would be objects of
    their own... maybe in Forms7?
    /Charles<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
    I suspect you're correct. I am going to have to something long-winded with 'set_item_property'. As you say, let's hope Forms 7 can cope with this.
    Many thanks,

  • How to change company code in Assignment tab (CJ20n-project builder)

    Dear All,
    Is there any config to maintain company code in assignment tab (project builder) ? We have a problem in our project. It shows that in basic data, user put company code A (in basic data) but in Assignment tab they put different company code let say B. When we do settlement , two accounting document created to company code A and B. By right it should be only company code A. In addition, we cannot change the company code, when the status is already Release (REL).
    Please help how to change the company code B to A and how to reverse the accounting document that has been created under these two accounting document.
    Thank you.
    Best Regards,
    nies

    Now I understand your scenario, you have the Requesting Company Code and the Company Code Different.
    You usually use this primarily with IM module if you want to manage the asset under construction (cross company) belonging to a different i.e., company code (Requesting ) than company code on main WBS.
    You can not change the company code (Assignment Tab) as you already have actual posted against it.
    You've also created an AUC (in wrong company code) and even if you reverse the settlement you would not be allowed to delete the AUC or the delete the settlement rule (its grey out as its already used)
    What I can suggest is to reverse the settlement, lock this WBS which was created wrongly, create a new WBS and then continue with you regular process.
    Above are my views but you can expect views from others.

    Do you documents contain an XML Declaration like this at the top?
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-2"?>
    If not, then they need to. The XML 1.0 specification says that if an XML declaration is not present, the processor must default to assume its in UTF-8 encoding.

    Hi,
    Go to SE38 -> SAPLXM06 ->Display ->GoTo ->Text Elements ->Text Symbols
    and insert the required custom name for the tab and the SYM value should be equal to the screen number which you are adding.
    For E.g. adding a new tab in purchase order item , we have to add the text element with the SYM = 111 and the text as per the requirement at the above location.
    Save & Activate the changes.
    Please Note that we have to click on "Maintain Changes In Logon Language" , i.e. we have to make and save these chagnes in EN language only.

    Change ownership as in change the iPad's name (like from John's iPad to Mary's iPad)? For that just go to Settings > General > About and then tap on the box that says 'Name'.
    If you're looking to change the default Apple ID login, while in the App Store scroll all the way down and tap on the box that has your Apple ID login info. Then choose to sign out. Afterward, scroll back down and select Sign In. By doing this keep in mind that any updates for apps that you downloaded with your Apple ID will require you to sign in to yours to receive the updates.

  • How to change content of DataGrid cell on mouse over

    I am trying to change content of a datagrid cell when the mouse is over it. Changing the dataProvider does not provide immediate feedback because update is performed by renderer. I am trying to directly update content of a cell onMouseOver and restore it onMouseOut.
    I am thinking of leaving the column empty and insert content onMouseOver, cleanup onMouseOut. Alternative, may be I can populate the column and mask out all but the cell the mouse is over.
    Any suggestion on how this may be done?
    Thanks!

    I would override updateDisplayList, call isItemHighlighted and set the content of the cell accordingly
