How to Display Query Variables in Text Titles?

Hi experts,
I have created a web template that has a query parameter screen and then displays the results in the form of charts and tables.
My question is how do I display the parameters entered by the user in a chart title?
For example if the user enters a date range of ISO Week 19 to 23, I want to display the chart title as: "Report Results - Week 19 to 23".
I also want to do the same for a general title. I've tried using information fields, but they don't allow me to add additional text.
Maybe I need to use some java script to get the parameter value?
Keep in mind I am just starting out with this and I am using BW7.0 with the WAD.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Thanks for your response.
I think you are referring to 3.5? Maybe 7.0 handles it differently?
I've tried entering free text and then putting in a text web item that is hooked up to a data provider with a characteristic but that only prints out the characteristic header and not the actual value selected by the user.
For example, I have the following:
Report for week <text web item>
Returns:
Report for week ISO Week
I would like it to return:
Report for week 19
Thoughts?

Hi,
To display any variable in BSP.
you need to do this:
<%= varibale name %>
For your variable,
<%= wk_matnr %>
OR
<htmlb:label for = "wkm"
text = "Material No" />
<htmlb:text id = "wkm"
text = "<%= wk_matnr %>" />
Hope this is helpful.

How to track query variable input in FM

Hi All,
There are a MultiCube1 and a Query1 based on it.
There is Virtual Infoprovider1 based on Query1.
And finaly there is a Query2 based on Virtual Provider1.
How to check inputed variables of Query2 in FM for Virtual Provider1.

Hi,
there is no way to read query variables in the is_protected method, since data slice run time and query run time are separated.
Of course you can do the 'usual' trick by implementing an exit variable, export some variable values to memory and read it in the is_protected method.
But is_overlapping is the correct method to read the used selection (of a query of planning function filter) to do some initializing work. This method is called when a function is processed or a query will be opened. Is_protetecd is called on a record basis, i.e. maybe very often.

How to display multiple lines of texts in a single rows in ALV

Hi,
I have a unique requirement in which i have to display multiple lines if texts for a single rows in ALV Grid. Right now in my output it is coming in single line which is not visible fully because that text is more than 255 character. So i want to display the test by splitting into multiple lines and show it on output. Please suggest some solution for this if this is possible in ALV.
Thanks,
Raghav

Hi Raghavendra,
Its not possible to display multiple line in one row of an alv, but i think you can acheive it by splitting the whole text into multiple sub-text.
For example, if your requirement is as below:
Field #1          Field #2
1                    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx(200 characters)
2                    yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy(220 character)
then you can break Field#2 value into say 50 character and then populate the internal table with repetative entries of Field#1 and the finally sort it by Field#1 value... as a result of which you output will be somewhat as below:
Field#1          Field#2
1                   xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
                     xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
                     xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
                     xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
2                   yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
                     yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
                     yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
                     yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
                     yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Hope it will help you in meeting your requirement.

How to display the variables in the specified manner?

We need to display some variables in an array in the horizontal order with backslash between the variables using a For loop in XML
For Example
Variable 1 / Variable 2 / Variable 3
Could someone provide valuable suggestions on the same.
Regards,
Sudeep.

Not sure if I understood the question, do you mean you want to display variables as output, where in the logic runs in a loop while reading the XML data and creates an array of data separated by backslash? You can always concatenate the variables similar to string concatenation.

How to display many Links like text with multi lines?

I need to:
1)display many links in one container like text
2)each link have onClick event Handler
Example:
Link1 SomeLink2 Link3 \*
Link4 AnatherLink5 \*
AndOneMoreLink6 \*
\* - right border of container
i'v tried TileGroup, but it has colums.... Group - overlapped links in one place.... and so on.
Any ideas how to do it?

I think you overlooked some of the possibilities provided by Apex.
For instance you can create a simple HTML region where you put the links as you prefer (makes sense if they are a fixed number and you need a special formatting).
You can also create Lists (see shared components). Lists are specifically meant for links, like Task lists in the Apex Builder itself, but you cannot build them dynamically, so you must know in advance each and every static link.
Or you can create a report if links come as result of a query which is good for building them dynamically.
A fourth option is a PL/SQL region outputting HTP calls where you have total control over every aspect.

How to display a variable value in WAD?

I am using a replacement path variable to filter a report by project number. While this works fine, the project number is not easily visible (only via Filter -> Display All Filter Values and this only displays the description, not the key).
How can I display the key and the description of the project number variable at the top of the report?
Thank you,
Dennis

The first part is right -
1) drag a text element onto the page, at a location in which you want the variable value to be displayed
2) On the left hand bottom page - go to the web item properties for the text element
3) scroll down to the specific properties for the item - in that uncheck the first two check boxes - display general text elements & display static filter values
4) in the next item in the properties (List of text elements) click once on the box where List is written and then clcik on the small browse button that appears.
5) in the window that opens, in the element type field, select variable/variable value as key (as per your requirement) and then under the element ID field type in the technical name of your variable that you want to display.
click ok and save your template and try executing it.
See if this solves your problem.

Nikhil

Displaying Changing Variables as Text

Hi there,
I'm working on a game in Animate that tracks several scores at the same time – six, to be exact. There are six personalities in the game, and the player's actions determine the positive or negative score displayed to each personality.
The player is presented with a situation and their action effects their score with one or more of the personalities. I'd like to know how to set a text field to change by a negative or positive value (not just changing to a specific number), based on which button the player chooses. I've created symbols for each of the six score fields, each one has a uniquely named text field inside the symbol.
Thanks for any help you can give!

Hi there,
Generally speaking, you want to create a variable with an initial value (setVariable), and then when you click on a button, update the variable value (getVariable, and then increment/decrement it, and then setVariable to this new value), and finally set the text field to the current value of the variable (getVariable).
Does that help? Let me know if an example file would help.

How to display links in a text-field in Portal forms?

In a database the content in a varchar2 field could include a link:
'Shortname <a ref="#" title="Full or long item name">Long name</a>'
In a Portal report this field is displayed like:
Shortname {color:#0000ff}_Long name_
{color}
where the last part is a link. When pointing to this link with the mouse, the full item name is displayed. If this field is displayed in a Portal form, however, it is displayed exactly as written first:
Shortname <a ref="#" title="Full or long item name">Long name</a>
Could anybody tell how this field could be displayed as a link in Portal forms? The field itself does not need to be updated, it serves as an identifier for trailing fields in the details of a MD-form. If the long name should be displayed in the field, you would need to scroll horizontal to see the other details.

Yes your point is clearer now. You wish to see an abridged form of a field data with the facility to see the full data when you hover on that data. just like what we see sometimes in hyperlinks.
Both of the methods I told you work to display a modified data value* (without modifying them in the databse) and I floated them after testing. Have used slightly different functionalities in some applications a while back.
To get the 'mouse hover' display, you may want to use the java-script event-handlers of the form elements.
Both methods work with the premise that we do not want to change field data in DB; only displayed-data needs to be different.
1. The idea to edit info using sql-queries or functions from default value attribute work is the main thing. how and what should we edit the data to produce is a plsql-coding problem. So for instance, for a data example like yours, the following works!
assumption: the desired field is LINKS and is a column in PORTAL.TBL_TEST_FORMLINKS
SELECT DECODE(LINKS, NULL,NULL,SUBSTR(LINKS,INSTR(LINKS,'>','1')+1, LENGTH(LINKS)-INSTR(LINKS,'<','2'))) FROM PORTAL.TBL_TEST_FORMLINKS
If you need a different output or have a different requirement, then the example should be sufficient to guide you how to help yourself.
2. The other case of javascript embedded html in an additional plsql code also works. One such example is this:
<pre>
BEGIN
HTP.PRINT('<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1">
// find the element you want to edit first;
// hint: you may use this scheme and some basic jscript to extract the field LINKS : FORM_NAME.DEFAULT.LINKS.01
// now use javascript to get its value; treat it to fit your requirement; and equate it back to the LINKS element;
</SCRIPT>');
EXCEPTION
When Others THEN
null;
END;
</pre>
-- now follow my other instruction on FORM attributes in my second reply to see what you want to see.
these hints should be more than enough for anyone familiar with these technologies.
