How to move Top-Level Navigation tabs from left to center side

Hi,
Is there a way to modify the TLN tabs to display on the center side instead of the left? (as if it were a align = center in the code of table)
I tried to change printLevel1Table and printLevel functions in toplevelnavigation.js.org file, but it not work.
Please tell me which jsp or par file I need to modify this.
Thanks so much in advanced

Hi Dario Laurora ,
Yes TLN tabs can be made to displayed with center alignment. Try analyzing the code of TLN.
Have a look at this link http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a0b25512-07c8-2a10-4289-b45a3333b869 and http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/c0a1aea5-a2d1-2a10-c6bc-953bdadfdcb8 and http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/6066b302-09c8-2a10-a894-eb9fef30df85 This will help you in understanding how TLN are made to displayed .Everything is controlled by CSS.Though the link concentrates single level of TLN hovel menu, it will surely help you in achieving you requirement.

undo the changes what you have done.
after you logon to the portal try the url below...this should take you to content admin directly from there modify the framework page and reset the property of TLN
http://yourserver:port/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.pagebuilder.IviewModeProxy?iview_id=pcd%3Aportal_content%2Fadministrator%2Fsuper_admin%2Fsuper_admin_role%2Fcom.sap.portal.content_administration%2Fcom.sap.portal.content_admin_ws%2Fcom.sap.portal.portal_content&iview_mode=default

How to hide Top Level Navigation?

Hi,
I created a quicklink for an iview.
I am able to call the iview from IE window using the quicklink.
But it displays the top level navigation (Company Logo, Welcome message, Logoff, Role tabs,...).
How do I hide this?
Thanks
Sundar

Hi Vinit,
Your solution is working when I clicked the preview button in iview edit window.
But when I try to open the iview using Quicklink with external IE window, it shows the MastHead, TLN.
It is not hiding the MastHead and TLN.
Thanks
Sundar

How to make top level navigation not refresh

Hello Guys,
I have a question concerning on my External Facing Portal, my boss wants that when I click on a tab or a link in the Top Level Navigation , to load the content in the Content Area without refreshing the whole page, What I want is that when I click on a tab or link of the Top Level Navigation , the Top Level Navigation and the MasterHead not to refresh and that the content be loaded and refreshed only in the Content Area. The only way I know to do this is by making a frameset of my page and to make the masterhead and toplevel navigation a frame and the detalied navigation a frame and the content area a frame, and in the links to put the target property to the name of the content area frame, but I don't know if this is possible to do in the portal, I see that all is embedded and I don't know how to make a frameset like this in the portal.
Any highlights to solve this will sure be appreciated.
Thanks
Rewarding points will be given.
Luis

Hi,
When you are implementing External Facing Portal, i think you have used Light Framework Page. In Light Framework Page, only one Framework has been used, so when you click on the top level navigation, the whole page will get refresh, so there is no otherway as of my knowledge. If you use standard framework page in portal, it is possible to do (i.e. the content area only get refresh) and the concept of your External Facing Portal is eliminated here.

Top-level navigation tabs shape

Hi,
I need to have rounded tabs in th top level navigation, can anyone tell me if there is a easy way to do this??
Thanks in advance,

Hi Marysol,
Did you find the documentation? Do you have additional questions on the navigation tag library?
Also, when you first looked for the documentation, what was the problem that caused you not to find it? How would it be better to organize the documentation?

How to start Top-Level Navigation on Level two?

Hi,
does anyone known a trick how i can start the top-level navigation at Level two?
I make an own frameworkpage and try to set it in the iview properties, but there is not an property for this. it is only for the detailed-navigation iView there.
For what:
I need this, because i would open an pop-up with an other portal window. I link to the popup with navigation-target=... In this pop-up should only be the content of one role. This folder i have set to "invisible in the navigation area". So the User always see him in a popup. when i start at the default Top-navigation level 1, the user see all the other navigation folders.
Best regards,
Patrick

Hi Patrick,
up to SPS13, this needs some hands on on different parts of the TLN. What I've done this spring was showing all top-level nav targets within a select box in the masthead and then, after having selected one of these entries, the TLN shows just the content of this top level entry. So this is more or less the same. As said, some work to do.
As of SPS14, with the new navigation taglib, I expect this to be much less work; anyhow, I didn't convert the results into SPS14, so I cannot say if this is really as easy as I expect.
Hope it helps

Top-Level Navigation Tab Image

In the top-level navigation it allows you to assign background colors for the tab colors when selected or not selected. However, you can reference an image with a unique path in this field. So when the top-level navigation renders it displays an image, gradient for example instead of a background color. I did this a while back but cannot locate this information. If someone has done this before and can provide this information that would be great.

I just tested it, and did not manage to make it work.
I am in the Portal Outer Frame > Top-Level Navigation > Unselected Tabs of First Level > Background Color of Unselected Tabs
and this is the value I use :
background:url(http://<host>:port/irj/go/km/docs/documents/SDN/my_image.png)
Am I missing something ? Do I have to create a par file for this ?

How make the Top-level Navigation and Content Area in one page as a whole?

I want to make the Top-level Navigation and the Content Area in the one page as a whole displayed in user interface.In the default framework,the Top-level Navigation and the Content Area were contained in 2 pages, So the vertical scroll bar could only control the Content Area. I want to control the full page with one vertical bar like the page of "www.sdn.sap.com" Web.

Hi Jianguo,
One advantage of the external facing portal solution (SP14) is that the framework page is displayed in a single frame. Perhaps this could be of use to you.
Hope this helps.

How to merge top level navigation into detail navigation panel.

Hi All,
I want to add all the contents of top level navigation into detail navigation panel and remove top level navigation.I am looking for the code with which i can shift the top level navigation to detail level navigation.

You could edit the top-level navigation iview and set the <b>Number of Display levels</b> property's value to 0.
you can reach the Top-level navigation iview by going through the following path
1) <b>Content Administration --> Portal Content --> Content Provided by SAP --> Admin Interfaces --> Top-level navigation</b>
However, note that once you do this the whatever menus that are available in the top level will not be available anymore.
Maybe, you could copy the standard Top-level navigation into a framework page that you have created and then make the change. After doing so, you can assign it to groups/roles you want. This will ensure that the CONTENT/SYSTEM/USER administrators see the normal portal framework and specific user groups alone dont see the Top level navigation..

Top Level Navigation Tabs

Is there a way to round out the corners of the tabs in the TLN?

Hi Kathleen,
it depends which framework page / which TLN iView you use. The design is quite straight forward if you are using the light framework page with the light TLN iView which uses the NavTagLib. In the corresponding JSP, you can easily add the HTML layout you would like to use.
In the standard framework page with it's standard TLN iView implementation, this is a bit more complicated for the update of the TLN is done by JS. The table is built within toplevelnavigation.jsp but filled dynamically through JS (in toplevelnavigation.js, functions printLevel1Table/printLevel2Table).
Hope it helps

Can anyone help me out...
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You can have more than two levels of navigation in TLN. But This is not possible without custom implementation.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/5a/33befa45ca7f459b24d0c5d51d0749/frameset.htm
In I-4 says:
"In the Navigation property category, scroll to the Number of Display Levels property and enter the value 0, 1, or 2, depending on how many navigation levels, if any, you want for top-level navigation".
From the third level role, is displayed in the DLN.

Link to top-level navigation items

hi all,
does anybody know how to create a link to a top-level navigation item from an jsp iView? the idea is similar to Home-page and area-page concept in the new ESS with WebDynpro. From the home-page, users can navigate direct to an item which is displayed in the top-level navigation. fyi, we are on EP6.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can create links to any navigation node, the keyword here is NavigationTarget.
