How to change the view of Mail to be similar as Outlook?

In the past, I get used to view my email content on right hand side and the email list in the left hand side. In such way, it can allow me to scan the email content line by line effectively.
Now I can only see Mail arranging the email list at the top and email content at the bottom. Is there any special way to rearrange the outlook of Mail?

there was a 3rd party plugin to make this possible in leopard Mail called Letterbox

but I don't think it has been updated for snow leopard yet.

just checked the link and they've got a snow leopard beta version already.

How to change the view of the basic search portlet

Hi,
I want to change the view of the basic search portlet. To be more precise, I just want a text box and a Go button in it. Cananybody advise on how to do this?
Regards,
Priya

Indeed the 'Basic Search Box' item is what you want to use. You can choose what label you want or an icon if desired.
As mentioned in a previous reply, you need to edit the properties of the Page Group where you want to add the item and add the 'Basic Search box' to the list of available items that a user can add to the page group.
Navigator -> Properties (for the desired page group) -> Configure Tab -> Edit link in the 'Content Type and Classification' section -> Item Types section add the 'Basic Search Box'.
Now in a page in that page group, add an item, and from the list of 'Built-In Navigation Item Types' you will see the 'Basic Search Box'.

How to change the view criteria at run time for af:query

Hi,
I've a usecase where I need to change the view criteria of the af:query at run time.
Use case:
=======
1) Consider a check box (Show Emps Under Dept 10) in the query panel when user selects and clicks 'Search' button should show the employees under dept 10. If user searches without selecting the check box, the results should show all the employees in all the departments.
2) I need to have a check box always in the query panel. Its mandatory.
The way I implemented:
==============
1) Created a transient variable 'Show Emps Under Dept 10' in the EmployeeVO and also created a bind variable bind_DeptNo.
2) Create a view criteria 'AllEmployees' which has only the transient attribute as the view criteria item and whose value set to 'false' by default.
3) Created another view criteria 'EmpUnderDept' which has 'DepartmentId' as the view criteria item and whose value set to the bind variable 'bind_DeptNo'.
4) Dropped the view criteria 'EmpUnderDept' as the 'af:query' panel in the jspx page.
5) Overridden the queryListener as '#{EmpBean.empSearch}'
6) Has the below code in the empSearch method as below. When user selects the check box, applying the other criteria 'EmpUnderDept' and setting the bind variable to '10'.
public void empSearch(QueryEvent queryEvent) {
// Add event code here...
QueryDescriptor queryDesc = (QueryDescriptor) queryEvent.getDescriptor();
ConjunctionCriterion conCrit = queryDesc.getConjunctionCriterion();
List<Criterion> criterionList = conCrit.getCriterionList();
List criterionValues = new ArrayList();
Object criteriaValue = null;
int criteriaNo = 0;
DCBindingContainer bc = (DCBindingContainer)BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();
FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
for (Criterion criterion : criterionList) {
AttributeDescriptor attrDescriptor = ((AttributeCriterion)criterion).getAttribute();
System.out.println("============== attrDescriptor.getName() =================== " + attrDescriptor.getName());
criteriaValue = ((AttributeCriterion)criterion).getValues().get(0);
if(criteriaNo==0) {
Boolean val = (Boolean) ((AttributeCriterion)criterion).getValues().get(0);
if (val.equals(true)) {
OperationBinding method = (OperationBinding) ADFUtil.findOperation("ExecuteWithParams");
if(method!=null) {
Map params = method.getParamsMap();
//params.put(key, value)
method.getParamsMap().put("bind_DeptId", 10L);
method.execute();
ADFUtil.invokeMethodExpression( "#{bindings.EmpUnderDeptCriteiaQuery.processQuery}", queryEvent);
} else {
//ADFUtil.invokeEL("#{bindings.ExecuteWithParams.execute}");
ADFUtil.invokeMethodExpression( "#{bindings.AllEmployeesCriteriaQuery.processQuery}", queryEvent);
But this approach is not working and its always showing all the employees in all the departments.
Please let me know if there is a way to change the view criteria at run time depending on the values set at run time for one of the view criteria items.
JDev version am using is '11.1.1.5'
Thanks,
Lakshman

Hi Shay,
It worked for me without overriding the executeQuery() method in the ViewImpl.java.
Instead of creating 2 view criteria, I created only one which has both transient variable and the DepartmentId = <bind_DeptId>. With the above code, it worked properly. Now I am using only one view criteria.
Thank you.

How to Change the View

View will not reset to "actual size"; suggestions?

When opening a PDF document it is zoomed at 173%, which is "Fit Width". I want them to open at 100% or Actual Size. Every time I open a PDF I have to click on View, then Zoom, then click Actual Size. I have gone to Adobe Acrobat Professional and clicked on Edit, then Preferences, then under Default Layout & Zoom and changed from "automatic" to 100%, hit OK -- but nothing changed, even after a reboot, which is sometimes needed to hold changes. I work with PDFs quite a bit & it's just frustrating to have to keep changing the view. Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

How to change the primary outgoing mail server in iphone

I am trying to change the primary outgoing mail server from Yahoo to another mail which is my internet provider. I do not know the steps to complete this in my iphone thanks

If you have more than one email account on your phone, you can change the default account under Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendar>Default Account. Note that this setting does not appear unless you have more than one account on your phone. So, you'll need to add the email account from your ISP under Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Add New Account if you have not already done so.

How can I change the view of mails list

In the list of received messages has only one way of displaying information - detail.
With this method of displaying the message list displays all the information in one line, and is divided into columns.
This is useful when very wide monitor.
In my case the laptop screen is not very large and much of the information is hidden (requires horizontal scrolling list).
Windows Explorer, can display list of files in the view "Content", when the information about the file appears on multiple lines. This method allows to save space horizontally.
Is there a way to customize the display list in Thonderbird like that?

See the View > Layout menu.
If it does not look right, please restart Thunderbird after choosing a different option.

How to change the order of Mail accounts

Is there a way I can adjust the order of how my Mail accounts appear? I have six accounts on my iPhone, but generally only receive e-mails to two of them, so I'd like to put them at the top of the list.
Thanks!

You're welcome.
I'm not sure how the account order is established on the iPhone when transferring email accounts from your computer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process. I access only two email accounts and I manually created both on my iPhone.
You can delete all accounts on your iPhone, and then select only one email account at a time under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences followed by a sync - selecting the account you want listed first. Follow this by deselecting the account under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences and then select the next account that you want listed on your iPhone followed by a sync.
Repeat the same for the 3rd account, 4th account, and so forth.
Another thing to check, what order are the email accounts listed under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences? Does the order match the order of the accounts on your iPhone? If so, can you change the order of the accounts under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences? If yes, you can delete all email accounts from your iPhone followed by transferring all 6 email accounts at one via the iTunes sync process.

How to change the Views or Pop-ups?

Hi All,
I have a huge user interface with many views and pop-ups, and want to know what is the best method to make changes to them.
I need to add or change input fields in the views, but some of the fields are not yet available from the RFC models. Therefore, in this case, is it acceptable to use Apply Template (even though some fields are not be available) or should I create/change the ui elements individually or manually change their properties? Would the second option, which is to manually create/change the input fields on the screens, be acceptable practice?
Also, how should I go about re-arranging or re-aligning the buttons, check boxes, etc? I have tried drag-and-drop, but it is very difficult to line things up. Is there an easier way?
Thanks so much for your help.

I have not receive a response.
My question is, if I make changes to my views WITHOUT using Apply Template, will that pose a problem later on when I do the binding against the new fields that will be coming from the RFC model?
Is it necessary to wait until the RFC model has been updated with the new fields before proceeding with the changes to the screens?
The reason I'm asking is because in the interest of time, the client has asked me to complete the screen layouts first. Then the bindings can take place later once changes to the Remote-enabled Function Modules (adaptive RFC) have been completed. What is the common practice in this case?
Please offer your expert advice as this is urgent.
Thanks so much.

How to change the View Type

Hi All,
I have created a view of type "List" . can i change it to Form view by any method?
Regards
Ashim

Hi Ashim,
The view presentation finally depends on the tag you use in .htm file. So, you can't change a list view to a form view by some method. It is better to create a separate view. But, if you want to experiment with it, the you can replace the tag in .htm that currently makes it a list view (generally it is <chtmlb:configTable>) by the form view configuration tag <chtmlb:config>. You then need to open the view configuration and pull fields from context nodes to complete the UI.

How to change the view element visibility Dynamically?

Hi,
Can any one please suggest that how can I make one of the viewUIElements from the view, visible on the whole screen? Basically i want to make the data in the table, available for printing. I want when user clicks on the print button, he should see only the data in the table on the whole screen and some icons, nothing else. Again when he clicks one back button icon on the screen, he should return to the previous view.
Thanks and Regards,
Smriti

<b>Hi smriti Behl
I Think you can get something from the below explanation
Create one UI Element For example "Visible" and make the type as
com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.Visibility
Now bind this Context Value with the UI Elements ie UI elements which you want to make Not Visible When you click Print Button. You can write the Following Code inside the print button
wdContext.currentContextElement().setVisible(WDVisibility.NONE);
When you want to make the UI Elements Visble When Click Back Button Write Following code In side Back Buuton Method
wdContext.currentContextElement().setVisiblity(WDVisibility.VISIBLE);
May i Know Your Problem Solved ..............

How do I set different viewing times for the mobile gallery.
I' like to change it from about 3 seconds to10 seconds.

I hope this is something that will be corrected in the next vision of either theoperrating system, or in the gallery. three seconds is way too short for showing pictures to friend while telling abut them. Even apple's screen savers ware slower between the transitions.
I'll do a search ontne store for an app. Do you think I should search for a different photo display, or for something that allows one to change settings on the current gallery app?

I'm no expert in this area, but you can use HTML to create your signature.
There are several how-to guides on the internet. Here's one of them:

How can I change the font in notes in the view in mail?

Use the Fonts menu. Either -
• go to the Format menu and select Show Fonts
• or, in the Note creation window, click the icon for Fonts -
In either case, once the Fonts window is open, select the text you want to change then choose the font characteristics (face, style, and size) from the Fonts screen.
