How to change visual attribute of particular record

Hai,
I HAVE ONE BLOCK WHICH DISPLAY RECORDS OF ALL EMPLOYEES
MY OBJECT IS WHEN EMPNO=12 THEN RECORD VISUAL ATTRIBUTE MUST BE CHANGE LET'S SAY XXX ELSE VISUAL ATTRIBUTE DEFAULT
PLS HELP

You should use the SET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY built-in procedure ... There is an example in the on-line help of Forms Builder..
If you need to change a particular record during query , you have to use the code in the POST-QUERY trigger of the block which displays the employee data.

Changing visual attribute in Enter Query mode

Hello, I want to change visual attribute of all items in the first record when the user presses button for Enter_Query. I want that the user sees that the form is in enter query mode and it "waits" for the input of criteria. My code (copied from Help and modified) in trigger WHEN_BUTTON_PRESSED:
DECLARE
cur_itm VARCHAR2(80);
cur_block VARCHAR2(80);
BEGIN
ENTER_QUERY;
cur_block := :System.Cursor_Block;
cur_itm := Get_Block_Property( cur_block, FIRST_ITEM );
WHILE ( cur_itm IS NOT NULL ) LOOP
cur_itm := cur_block||'.'||cur_itm;
Set_Item_Instance_Property( cur_itm, CURRENT_RECORD, VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE,'yellow');
cur_itm := Get_Item_Property( cur_itm, NEXTITEM );
END LOOP;
END;
where yellow is the name of my visual attribute.
The problem is that I need to press the button TWICE to color the record.
Can anybody help me with this problem?
Natasa

(Wrong forum).
The problem is that enter_query stops executing your procedure until
another action ist started by the user.
You must create a short-time timer before issuing enter_query and set
your colour scheme in the when-timer-expired-trigger.

How to change general attribute of text element

hi
who now how to change general attribute of text element on screen dinamically? I wish to change text value dinamically for example.

Hi Denis,
I am not too sure on what you want.
If you require that the text value be different based on some conditions you can declare as many text elements as conditions and call the relevant text element.
But I dont think that you can assign dynamic texts to a single text element.

Changing Visual Attribute in a multi record block---Urgent

How do I change the visual attribute of a mutirecord item , before it shows, e.g. showing negative items as red and positive as blue.
Thanks

You can use set_item_instance property for this purpose . This is an example from Developer help manual
** Built-in: SET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY
** Example: Change the visual attribute of each item instance in the
** current record
DECLARE
cur_itm VARCHAR2(80);
cur_block VARCHAR2(80) := :System.Cursor_Block;
BEGIN
cur_itm := Get_Block_Property( cur_block, FIRST_ITEM );
WHILE ( cur_itm IS NOT NULL ) LOOP
cur_itm := cur_block| |'.'| |cur_itm;
Set_Item_Instance_Property( cur_itm, CURRENT_RECORD,
VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE,'My_Favorite_Named_Attribute');
cur_itm := Get_Item_Property( cur_itm, NEXTITEM );
END LOOP;
END;

How to change the attribut of Form in Review Form in ISR

Hi,

Please let me know how to do it .
Thanks
Manish

Hi Manish,
You may write the Formcalc scripting for the respective field.
//Check ISR control parameters for read/write access
if($record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_MODE == "DISPLAY" |
   $record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_FORM_VIEW =="ISR_APPROVE" | <b>$record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_REVIEW == "true" )</b>
then
     this.access = "readOnly"
else
     this.access = ""
endif
Hope this helps.
Thanks and Regards,

Ask: how to set visual attribute

Hi guys,
I have a data block named BLOCK1, in BLOCK1 there is a text item named ITEM1.
I display it in tabular form, showing 10 records.
I wanted the record where the cursor's located shown in different color.
For example if the cursor at record #1, record #1 therefore is shown in RED. If the cursor is moved to record #2 then record #2 will be shown in RED and record #1 color will revert back to normal.
I tried putting WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE trigger at BLOCK1 with the following code:
set_item_property('BLOCK1.ITEM1', VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE, 'WHITE');
set_item_instance_property('BLOCK1.ITEM1', current_record, VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE , 'RED');
I thought set_item_property('BLOCK1.ITEM1', VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE, 'WHITE') will set all records of ITEM1 to 'WHITE', then the set_item_instance_property('BLOCK1.ITEM1', current_record, VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE , 'RED') will set the particular record where the cursor is in to 'RED'...
It doesn't work. All the records that has been set to 'RED' by set_item_instance_property will stay red, set_item_property does not revert them to white.
Any ideas?

In the property palette of your block there is "current record visual attribute".
Assign a valid visual_attribute and then when you move from one record to another it will be applied to the current record.
Hope it helps you,
Fabrizio

JDAPI: How to use visual attributes.

I want to attache an olb-file to my forms by using jdapi (java).
The reason: I want to automatically change the property visual-attribute at all of my buttons in the forms.
How can I attache the visual attribute to the forms?
(It is AttachedLibrary lib1 = new AttachedLibrary(fmd,"esw_std_1");
for .pll librarys)
How it works for visual attributes in .olb-files?)
I want to subclass the visual attribute.
It is a migration issue (6i to 10g).
Best regards,

Wolfgang,
You would be better posting this question to the Forms. This forum is for database migration issues from 3rd party databases to Oracle.

How to change the attribute name for a relation

When the Data Modeler engineers a logical model into a relational model it create table columns for the relations. The names of the generated columns are listed in the attributes list in the properties dialog of the relation. The actual name of the attribute gets calculated by the attribute name of the entity which is part of the relation. This is okay, if there is only one relation between two entities. But when there are two relations between two entities the second attribute gets a stupid number suffix. This makes it impossible to give the attribute a useful semantic meaning.
When I engineer the model into a relational model I can change the column name in the relational model. Changing the column name in the relational model is not perfect but it would be okay for me, if it would not be overwritten during the next engineering run.
So I have two questions:
How can I change the attribute name in the attributes section of the properties dialog of a relation? See here for screen shot:
http://public.ceving.de/2012050300/relationattribute.png
And if it is not possible:
How can I preserve any changes on column names in the relational model during a re-engineering run?
Edited by: 931739 on 03.05.2012 08:07

Hi,
I've logged an Enhancement request on this.
I don't believe it's possible to change it from the Entity or Relationship dialog, as it's not updatable in these dialogs.
What you can do is change it in the Relational Model, and then reverse engineer the change back to the Logical Model.

How to change report attributes like heading, sort etc programmatically

Some of the columns from a classic reports using pl/sql as region source should be sortable. Is it possible to change this attribute (sort = yes) using JavaScript or APEX API?
David
Edited by: david on Sep 6, 2011 11:56 PM

There is something I don't understand here. Why do you need to point at the sxd? What is changing? Like I mentioned before. If the contents of the xsd change, all the report will do is - at best - drop the changed fields so you will be missing data. Perhaps some of the following will help;

How to change cn attribute

How can I change 'cn' using Oracle Directory Manager?
The 'cn' attribute is normally grayed out, so cannot be changed.
Thanks,
Chetan

Hi Chetan:
What you are trying to do is modify the RDN (Relative Distinguished Name). The following is an example of how to change the RDN from "cn=dcp1" to "cn=thanh mai". The example assumes the entry to be changed resides under "dc=Americas, dc=IMC, dc=com"
ldapmoddn -p 389 -h host_name -D cn=orcladmin -w welcome -b "cn=dcp1, dc=Americas, dc=IMC, dc=com" -R "cn=thanh mai"
This modifies the RDN component of the DN from "cn=dcp1" to "cn=thanh mai"
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Jay

How to change the attribute of screen field to drop down list dynamically

Hi All,
Col X                   Col Y
A                        input field
B                       drop down list
This is a tabular disply where the Screen field attribute for Col y is NO DROP DOWN BOX.
My requirement is to change the attribute of COl Y to DROP DOWN list depending on the value of
COL X dynamically.

Dear Ajay,
Actually this requirement is to enhance the standard screen for Tcode :EHSVU21.
So depending on the 1st Column(Test no) value ,i have to change the 3rd Column(Low.norm.result)
property either to DROP Down or not.
So in the PBO only the changes to be made and there is no field in SCREEN internal table for changing the attribute to DROP down. I checked SCREEN internal table where the field VALUE_HELP and REQUEST is useful but not suitable for my case.
Any solution available?
