How to control the force return in table cell data?

I have some xml format files.When I import them into FrameMaker,They display as table data.but when the data is very long in table cell,I want to control the new line by myself.for example,I add some \r\n in my xml file data,then in FrameMaker,It can identify the \r\n, force return.In framemaker I don't know the actual symbol that means the newline.How Can I deal with the problem?thank you!

Hi Russ,
yes, but you have to agree that forcing a return in the SOURCE content is really not a wise thing to do - It would be better to break the content into multiple paragraphs or used an XSLT to determine the column width and insert your own breaks in a version of the XML for rendering in Frame. If, at a later date, your templates in Frame change to allow wider columns in your table, then you'd have to go back into the source code and change every occurrence of the c/r in the data - Yeuch! Better to transform the data once, before importing into Frame and then if the col-width changes it is a simple task to change the width in the XSLT - personally, I would make sure the EDD and DTD allows multi-lines in the table cell and then break-up the data to fit the table cell size in an XSLT before importing. Then you don't taint your source code...and it is quite easy to do this is an XSLT...

How to keep the focus in a table cell as long as it is invalid?

Hello,
if you run the following code and enter some alphabetic characters in the Integer column,
you can't get out of the cell as long as focus transfer is within the table. But if you click in the textfield,
the cell is left invalid. (If you click in the textfield immediately after the false edit, the cell even doesn't
show the red border)
I tried to attach a focusListener to the table, but that makes editing the table impossible.
I also could attach a focusListener to each and every other component of the form,
and checking the table there in focusGained - but that looks rather awkward.
How would you proceed?

A big improvement is to apply
table.putClientProperty("terminateEditOnFocusLost", Boolean.TRUE);for this at least reverts the erroneous input to the last valid value.
Still I would prefer either to inform the user of this reversion or to red-border the erroneous cell;
for sometimes the [OK] button is at the bottom of a long form and putting one's eyes there for
clicking, one doesn't necessarily notice the reversion which happens at the top.

Thanks to both of you!
@Jeanette
In my real application I use a JFormattedTextField as editor. Checking my overridden stopCellEditing() method I become aware that the contents of JFormattedTextField (getText() or super.getCellEditorValue()) arrives there already reverted. Thus it's no wonder that I cannot return false.
simply removes the editor on column resizingYikes! - Fortunately the table in question is not resizable.
SwingX has a NumberEditorExHow would you proceed if you didn't know that class and were looking for it? I still don't manage to navigate successfully on java.net.
@Walter
Never thought of this. Seeing that someone is checking for me (red border), I'd rather lazily let him continue doing the job. But a DocumentListener looks like being a way out.

How to Control the width of the Filter row in Table View

Hi !
I have a Table View with filter='application'. The filter works fine but I am not able to control the width of the columns of the tableview .
On filtering, if there are not items in the table view the columns shrink to the minum width....and it looks very odd.
Can you help me how to control the width of the Filter-Row in Table Veiw.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Bindiya

Hi Raja,
"FIXEDCOLUMN" did not help in the width of the column, but it just showed all the rows merged in the column.
I have a cloumn called "COUNTRY" and its width is set to "20". The Filter of the column "COUNTRY" is a dropdownlist whos value is update with new values.
On filtering if there is any row visible then the column width is adjusted to the maxmimum length of the dropdownlist ( this is because of the "EDIT" attribute in column definition ). But if there is no rows visiblel for the selected filter value then the filter row shrinks to the width = "20" and the dropdownlist is not visible completely.
Need to know how to control the width of the FILTER column.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Bindiya

How to control the measure based on the related dimension.

Hi Experts,
In order to improve performance, I have created three kinds of time tables in DB,such as Year .Month, Day.
Then import them into the physical layer in RPD, and combine them into one dimension in BMM.
Actually, it has three level fact related with three time tables,so they are also dragged into one fact in BMM,and one column will be corresponding with three column derived from different Fact table in physical layer.
So I want to know how to control the measure based on the related dimension.
For example:
when users drag the Year,Sales column, it will come from Year Dimension and Year Fact Table.
when users drag the Month,Sales column, it will come from Month Dimension and Month Fact Table.
when users drag the Day,Sales column, it will come from Day Dimension and Day Fact Table.

Hi,
Create a dimension Hierarchy, with Year >> Month >> Day Levels and
Next Double click on Year Table LTS >> click on Ocntetnt Tab >> set as Year
same way for Month LTS and Day LTS.
So now when you select year column then server canknow which LTS to hit and Hits Year LTS.

How to control the number of fields in the Advanced mode in af:query

Hi,
How to control the number of fields in the Advanced mode in <af:query>?
Say i have 20 fields in my table and i created a view criteria with 2 fields. It would work perfectly in Basic mode. But in the Advanced mode all other fields selection is possible on clicking the ADD Fields button. I did not want the client to make a search with all 20 fields. Only 10 fields are to be listed in the Advanced Mode even though there are 20 fields in my table.
How do i control the list of fields in ADDFields button?
Any ideas?
KR

You can uncheck the Querable property of the attributes which you need not show up in the Advanced Mode (but they will not show up in other modes too !) or programatically set the same as mentioned here -
http://adfcodebits.blogspot.com/2010/11/bit-27-setting-view-object-attributes.htmlAlso you can hide the AddFields button as suggested here - http://www.notjustjava.com/2011/12/cool-tips-to-showhide-components-of-the-query-control-of-adf/

How to control the canvas of the ADF Read-Only Form

Hi
Could you give an idea of how to control the canvas of the fields in ADF Read-Only form. My requirements are as follows
1) ALL the labels has to left justified irrelevant of their length
2) ALL the values also has to left justified and should be wrapped if it exceeds some length.
3) I want to show the results in more than one column with proper alignment as mentioned above.
Thanks in advance.
Sivaji.......

Sivaji,
There is a "rendered" attribute on the af:table component. You can write EL to pragmatically control the evaluated value of expression to set the visibility.
Assuming you are using BC for your middle layer you can do something like the following:
<af:table ...
rendered = #{YourDetailViewObject.somestring.inputValue != null}
..>

How to control the number of instances of an object ?

Hi all,
Can anybody answer, How to control the number of instances of an object being created?
suppose at any point of time, if i would like to have 5 instances at the maximum, how can i disable the further requests?
Thanks in advance
Pradi

write a factory method that controls the number of instances for you:
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Arrays;
public class Bar
   private static final int MAX_BARS = 5;
   private static int numBars = 0;
   private int id;
   public static void main(String [] args)
      try
         int numBars = ((args.length > 0) ? Integer.parseInt(args[0]) : MAX_BARS+1);
         Bar [] bars = new Bar[numBars];
         for (int i = 0; i < bars.length; ++i)
            bars[i] = Bar.create();
         System.out.println(Arrays.asList(bars));
      catch (Exception e)
         e.printStackTrace();
   private Bar() { this.id = numBars++; }
   public String toString() { return "I am bar number " + this.id; }
   public static Bar create()
      Bar nextBar = null;
      if (numBars < MAX_BARS)
         nextBar = new Bar();

Hi,
Hi ,
You will need to group that radiobuttons so that SAP knows they are linked together. To do this using the grahical layout editor simply select all the radiobuttons and then right click on them, Now choose define group. Once you have done this you should not need any of the "clear" or "='X'" statements SAP should control it all for you.
hope this helps
Reward if found helpfull...

How to manage the space between a table and its title?

Have tables where titles are very close to the main text and need a couple of points to separate these elements. How to reshape this space?
1. Titles were separated by a return that is not visible... (any code is revealed by ID)
2. When a Return is inserted after the title, nothing happens aparently, but this return is now visible and could be used as a «paragraph space after» value:
3. A solution could be Grep to catch the end of paragraph assigned to titles to insert a return;
but Grep only catches the right border of the table (the yellow mark shows the big blinking cursor);
Grep cannot see the end of paragraph in the tables's title.
It another method?
Basically, how to modify the space between a table and ists title

I think you and Bob are not in synch here.
Bob suggested that you could use paragraph spacing, but for that to work you do need to use separate paragraphs for the title and table, which you don't seem to be doing. Using GREP to find the end of the paragraph only works if there IS and end to the paragraph. As far as I know there is now meta-character to use in Find/Change that would allow you to find a table and insert a paragraph break ahead of it, but I bet it could be scripted.
I'm not quite sure what you were trying to find in the GREP you posted. Did you actually have a paragraph return inserted already after the title? In that case you only need to redefine the style for that paragraph to add the space (or redefine the style for the paragraph that holds the table itself). You don't need the GREP. But the reason it does nothing is that you've found a location -- the end of the paragraph, but haven't found any actual text to modify. To do anything you would need to use something like .$
But back to NOT having a separate paragraph... If you put the cursor in any table cell and go to Table Options > Table Setup tab you'll see fields to set space before and after the table that should do what you want. That was the second part of what he posted.

How to retrieve the values from a table if they differ in Unit of Measure

How to retrieve the values from a table if they differ in Unit of Measure?

If no data is read
- Insure that you use internal code in SELECT statement, check via SE16 desactivating conversion exit on table T006A. ([ref|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/2a/fa0122493111d182b70000e829fbfe/frameset.htm])
If no quanity in result internal table
- There is no adqntp field in the internal table, so no quantity is copied in itab ([ref|http://help.sap.com /abapdocu_70/en/ABAPINTO_CLAUSE.htm#&ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_1@1@]).
- - Remove the CORRESPONDING, so quantity will fill the first field adqntp1. ([ref|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABENOPEN_SQL_WA.htm])
- - Then loop at the internal table and move the quantity when necessary to the 2 other fields.
* Fill the internal table
SELECT msehi adqntp
INTO TABLE internal table
FROM lipso2
WHERE vbeln = wrk_doc1
    AND msehi IN ('KL','K15','MT').
* If required move the read quantity in the appropriate column.
LOOP AT internal_table ASSIGNING <fs>.
CASE <fs>-msehi.
    WHEN 'K15'.
      <fs>-adqnt2 = <fs>-adqnt1.
      CLEAR <fs>-adqnt1.
    WHEN 'MT'.
      <fs>-adqnt3 = <fs>-adqnt1.
      CLEAR <fs>-adqnt1.
ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP.
- You could also create another table with only fields msehi and adqntp and then collect ([ref|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPCOLLECT.htm]) the data to another table.
