How to start screen painter

Hi
How to start screen painter?????. I have installed SAP Business One. I tried installing ScreenPainter via ADD-ON administrator provided in SAP B One.

Hi Shabbir
When you assigned it to the company did a installshield window come up and install the addon?
-If no,tick force install and active. Log off sap and then log on, it will then install.
-If yes it did do it, sometimes you need to log on and off before seeing it in add-on manager. Also make sure that in add-on admininstration window on the second tab called user preferences if that user you are logging on as that add on is ACTIVE.
One you do the above, go to tools->screen painter.
Hope this helps

Screen Painter and RFC connection issue

Hello,
I get the following error when I try to start screen painter:
EU_SCRP_WN32 : timeout during allocate / CPIC-CALL: 'ThSAPCMRCV'
I have installed all sapgui components and when I test the rfc connection it
starts the program but then sends the same error.
I think it's got something to do with the fact that I'm trying to start this
program through a saprouter because when I start it locally (within my LAN)
the program starts without problems.
I have already applied latest kernel patch.
Could you suggest what could I do to complete my RFC connection? Should I
put something under gateway host or gateway service?
Thanks in advance

The issue here is that I don't know how to establish de gateway option
considering I'm using saprouter to connect to sap system.
Well... If you are asking how to "enable" gateway option then...
You go to SM59 > Open EU_SCRP_WN32 > Go to "Technical Setting" tab
Click on change option.
Put the Gateway host IP address or Host name (SAP Server) > Save
Check the connection by "Connection Test" option.
If any error... pls post here.

About Screen painter

my senior are compelled me to develop an add-on witout screen painter.
is it wright ? pls send me rply as early as possible.
if wrong then send me about some help on screen painter and how to detect screen painter control from vb.net

Mithun,
I am not sure exactly how to answer your question. The Screen Painter is typically used to assist the developer with creating new SAP Business One forms in an easy graphical environment. It is a tool provided to the developer to assist with rapidly creating new forms. You do not have to use the Screen Painter. You can code your forms from scratch as part of your add-on code using the IDE of your choice such as VB.Net. You can also look at this article which talks about how to auto generate and XML representation of your forms ...

As far as help on the Screen Painter, that is available when you install the screen painter.

Screen Painter how to, manual or flash book

Is there a screen painter manual, how to or flash book?
I started using it but the help is to simple, for now I want to create a form that will ask for an inventory code and bring in description and barcode field. Then the last field will ask for a quantity, that I will read with my add on to print barcode labels.
Regards,
William Burgos

Hi William Burgos
Screen painter is very basic. It only creates a screen. So all you do is make a new form, drop things on it like a text box, combo box, matrix and so on. But screen painter itself has no logic and you can't set it to do certain actions.
Screen painter only creates the form. Then you through code must load the form that screen painter created, this form is actually a XML form. Through code you must also apply all the logic.
Hope this helps

How to work with Alphanumeric Editor in Screen Painter?

Hello Guys,
I am trying to work on Screen Painter Layout and it's showing me that Graphical Screen Editor is not
available and continue working with Alphanumeric Editor.I don't know how to work on this.Guys,
Please let me know why is the message and what can we do about it.
Thanks in advance,
Sri

Somtimes you will get this message if something got screwy with your SAPgui, for me simply closing out of SAPgui and going back in has fixed this issue. If you do not know for sure that your SAPgui had been installed including the screen painter, then you should start there. You will need the SAPgui installation executable, either from CDs or a downloaded file. Run the SAPgui installation, and make sure to select the screen painter as part of the install, i believe it is under "development tools" in previous versions. In newer versions I believe it is installed by default, but I do no for a fact that it is not this way in earlier releases, such as the 46D gui.
So for make sure that Screen Painter has been installed with your SAPgui, if you are sure that it had been installed, perhaps it was working fine yesterday, then I would suggest first closing out SAPgui, and going back in, and trying the screen painter, If the problem persists, it may be worth it to reinstall the gui.

How do I make web shortcuts into start screen tiles that can be pushed to all users profile on a computer in Windows 8.1 enterprise?

We are trying to roll out Windows 8.1 Enterpise in our school system (K-12).
The focus of this question is how do we take an internet web based shortcut and make it into a screen tile (on the start screen) which will appear for any user's start screen that logs on to the computer?
The details:
We came upon a great paper that's entitled "Customize Windows 8.1 Start Screens by Using Group Policy".
By applying this paper we were able to accomplish our first goal: Lock down the start screen so no user could change it. We accomplished this by using the Start Screen Layout policy setting laid out in the paper.
Our second goal: to customize the start screen is only half way met. We can set up the start screen the way we want and then export the .xml file. We are able to "reimport" the .xml file when the new user logs in. The installed programs
will appear on the Start Screen but not the internet based web shortcuts that were on the inital setup start screen.
(FYI - tried creating these tiles by running the start screen internet explorer app to the intended address and pinning them to the start screen. At this time trying to figure if there is a place to put desktop internet short cuts into a directory to make
them appear on the Start Screen).
We can see that the directory: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs is a place for program files to appear on the start screen. Is there a location web based shortcuts can be placed to cause them to automatically appear on the start
screen for every user as well? If not how do we accomplish getting these into tiles for every user logging in?
Sorry for the lengthy explanation. Hopefully it gets our question answered and helps others out there in the same boat!

Karen-
Results: Did not work. The web based shortcuts did not appear.
Below is the steps taken with your tips incorporated. (Again it's lengthy sorry about that, but anyone can recreate what was done here. Maybe someone can see something left out by doing/reviewing it).
Here is what was done:
1. Installed a fresh install of Windows 8.1 enterprise on a pc. No updates were ran.
2. During setup created the admin account.
3. Logged into the account a simple start screen was arranged and setup by:
Starting desktop Internet Explorer. Going to Technet's website. Clicked tools and then selecting "Add site to Apps" from the drop down menu. Went to Apps screen, right clicked and pinned it to start screen. Repeated this procedure with an
educational web based site.
Right clicked a few provisioned apps and unpinned them from the start screen.
Made a few groups and labeled them. Web based shortcuts were arranged with one provisioned app in that particular group.
4. Opened a Powershell, right clicked it and ran as administrator. Typed the following:
export-startlayout -path C:\Users\Public\Master.xml -as xml
(Master is the name chosen for this test .xml file and was put in a location all users would have privelages to access it).
5. Opened the command prompt and right clicked and "ran as administrator", typed in gpedit.
6. In the Local Group Policy under User Configuration, under Start Menu and Taskbar I choose the Start Screen Layout.
7. Enabled the policy and typed in: C:\Users\Public\Master.xml for the Start Layout File.
8. Opened computer management, under Local Users and Groups I chose Users, right clicked in the middle screen and created a new user called Alpha.
9. Logged out of the inital account and logged into newly created Alpha account.
10. When the Alpha account logged in the start screen came up with everything changed in the inital account but no web based shortcuts were found on the start screen or App view.

When I click on the Nightly Windows 8 Start Screen icon it opens the Firefox 18 on desktop, how do I open Nightly on Metro?

Nightly was working on metro at first when I haven't installed Firefox 18 yet but when I installed Firefox 18 and thought it would run on metro if I set it as a default program which did not, opening nightly both on the desktop and start screen would open the firefox in the desktop instead.
I uninstalled Nightly and downloaded and installed the version 20 for 32 bit. When I looked on the default programs to set Nightly all I could see is Nightly on the list but the icon has changed to that of Firefox's. I set it as default and still it doesn't open as metro.
Any ideas how to fix this?

This is because the regular central Nightly channel builds is only the desktop version. The version on Nightly development channel is at 21.0a1 now actually.
You need a build that has Metro support.
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-elm/
Many users state they cannot get Metro version to work on 32-bit Windows anyways.
There is this running thread at mozillaZine about the Metro builds. http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=2304983

How do I pin a firefox site to the Windows 8 start screen?

I just got a new AIO with windows 8; not may favorite thing but I'm learning.
I use Firefox as my browser exclusively but Window 8 help, of course, won't explain how to pin sites through other browsers. I had to set up my desktop on my start screen so I can open Firefox from there and then I can start browsing with Firefox - but there has to be an easier way....I've tried to search through the Firefox support but I'm an accountant, not a techie and this is getting very frustrating. lol I hope someone can explain to me how to do this. And in very small words please - remember I'm bean-counter. :)
Thanks y'all.

jscher2000 - thanks for a really fast response!
Your links got me to get to clicking on other related links and I did find a site that was very easy to follow so I'm adding it here for you to give to others; has illustrations and''''' very''''' easy to follow instructions. Perfect to someone like me. I wouldn't have found it without you getting me started though.
