Image in report link

I have a report that conditionally displays a specific image based on the values in the row e.g.
SELECT CASE WHEN task_id_value = next_parent AND show_flag = 'N'
THEN
'<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#Fndtre05.gif">'
WHEN task_id_value = next_parent AND show_flag = 'Y'
THEN
'<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#Fndtre03.gif">'
Else
NULL
END Enable_Drill
FROM ris_tasks
I would like to setup a column link on this image column. However, it appears that the link can only be text. Is there a work around for this issue?
Thanks,
David

David,
HTML DB removes HTML tags from your column values when you use them in links or HTML expressions. In the next version of HTML DB this will be optional, so you can decide whether or not you want to have the HTML tags removed. With the current 1.5.1 version, I would recommend that you build the link as part of your query, i.e. you could add the "a href" tags to your image tags.

Marc

Problem with Append Front Panel Image To Report.vi

I'm using LV 7.0 with the MicroSoft Report Generation toolkit installed. Under the Report Generation palette there exists an Append Front Panel Image To Report vi. Also on the same palette there is an Easy Print VI Panel or Documentation.vi which uses another Append Front Panel Image To Report vi located under the VI Documentation subpalette. Here is the problem; I have serval vi's that use Append Front Panel Image To Report.vi from the Report Generation palette and I have a couple of vi's that use the Easy Print VI Panel or Documentation.vi which is linked to the Append Front Panel Image To Report.vi located under the VI Documentation subpalette. Clear as mud!
This creates a conflict of intrest. In a nut shell th
ere are two vi's with the same name in different locations doing different things. I have a program with subvi's that need to call each respective Append Front Panel Image To Report.vi and that just is not working.
Is this a known issue with LV7.0 that has already been addressed and/or resloved?
Thanks.

ATC Herman,
Based on the picture you posted and what you are describing, it looks like you might have an incomplete install. What version of the toolkit do you have? Was it first installed on an earlier version of LabVIEW, or did you install it first on 7.0? Your VI Documentation Palette appears the same as if you hadn�t installed the toolkit. I�ve attached a screenshot of what it should look like. The VI in question is a polymorphic VI, which may be causing some of the confusion. If you right-click on it and select �Open Polymorphic VI�, it will show you what options you have, depending on the input. I opened both test and test1, and they appeared the same for me. I was able to have them both on the block diagram. The path to bo
th of them was C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.0\vi.lib\printing\ReportDocExtensions.llb\Append Front Panel Image to Report.vi. The .llb ReportDocExtensions has the polymorphic VI, as well as copies of each of the possible instantiations. Make sure you have these VI�s in the .llb in that directory.
There is a KB on having the toolkit on multiple versions of LabVIEW and what files you need. Make sure you have all the files listed.
Please let me know if you are able to get to the bottom of the issue with the above information.
Thanks, and have a happy day!

Export report links missing on Dashboard

All,
I've built a dashboard in 11g with one page and links to numerous reports. I need several of the reports to have the "Export" link on the page; however, I only have two choices (Return and Create Bookmark).
I've tweaked the Dashboard properties > Dashboard Report Link section numerous times and nothing works. I've also tried to inherit settings & customize settings under the Page Report Link section. Any other ideas? Is there something I need to do to the reports themselves, or should I be able to control the export function through the Dashboard?
Thx

No - this did not work. Under the properties (xyz) for the reports, there is not even a "report links" option? The only spot I've seen to select these choices are under the Dashboard page properties and dashboard page report links which neither one worked.
Under the Dashboard editor, I dragged the Link or Image object to the Dashboard page. Then, I went to properties and uploaded the report I wanted. Is there a different way to upload a report? It has to be in a link format.

Instead of using image in a link column can we have button with name?

Hi,
In Apex , in report region instead of using image in a link column can we have button with name?
Thanks,
Anoo..

From your wording, it sounds like you used the built-in column link within APEX. You will need to edit your column and remove that so that the column is only containing the definition that is coming from the query (you can also just change the alias used for the column and then the old column with the link will be removed and the new alias will be added against your new button column).

Displaying images in reports 10g

Hi All,
I am trying to display my .bmp images in reports 10g. Do I need to make a .jar file and configure the formsweb.cfg accordingly in order to display it in reports? If not, how do I display that image while implementing Oracle 10gAS?

Image on reports

Hello.
We have a problem with images on reports (6.0.8.11.3).
We want to display an image that can change dinamically. We used the technique of formula column - ABC object in the layout model and everything was ok, but:
- When the image is larger or smaller than the abc object reports show it (in the prewiever) some times smaller, sometimes it doesn't show at all. We tried with all kinds of images (bmp, gif ...).
Is there any technique we can use to ensure that the image will be properly displayed? Note that we can't use a link file because we can't chage its source dinamically like we do with an abc object.
Thank you all in advance.

Try setting vertical elasticy and horizantal elasticity both as variables in property sheet of image. It worked for me.

Adding Custom "Report Links"

Does anyone know how to add custom "Report Links" to OBIEE? Right now the standard report links available are "Modify", "Refresh", "Printer Friendly", "Download", "Addd to Briefing Book", and "Copy". I want add another option called "Detailed Report" and have it appear along side all the other report links.
Is this possible?
-Joe

I am not aware of a "best practice" for doing exactly what you wish to do. If you have a large number of reports and you wish all to have a "summary" or "detail" that the user can choose, one way to have this functionality is to build a "table of contents" dashboard page composed of "link or image" objects that have, as titles, "Report1 -- Summary" and next to it "Report1 -- Detail" and have them all listed next to each other in column form.
The user can then right off choose if he/she wishes to see the summary version or detailed version of any report and when opening them up (in a new window) can decide whether to print, download, etc. This gives an overall view of all your reports so the user can see everything and at the same time choose between what version of the report he/she wants to view.
As far as "best practices" in general, I have this book which has some good tips:

Does an image which is linked to an illustrator file have to be scaled correctly in size, or will it

does an image which is linked to an illustrator file have to be scaled correctly in size, or will it automatically rescale to itself to the placeholder image size?

Consider using the report generation tools. If I remember correctly they're available, in limited form, in all LabVIEW editions; the optional add-on makes it possible to generate reports in Office, but since you don't have Office installed that's irrelevant to you. It makes it easy to generate a printable report.
Also, there's no need for the sequence structure in your block diagram.

Use Images in Reports in dependency of more than one criteria

Hello,
I would like to use Images in Reports as described in Tips & Tricks (green and red point image), but I don't know how to do this if I have more than on criteria. The point is, how to link it to the report. 
I wrote this pl/sql-code, he would check the criterias:
 
BEGIN 
DECLARE 
CURSOR ss_alle IS 
--Abfrage aller Datensätze 
SELECT ID, sbb_site_id, code_swisscom, ok_sent_swisscom, ok_back_swisscom FROM acqueasy.ssvertrag; 
BEGIN 
--Eintrag für Eintrag abarbeiten 
 FOR ss_id IN ss_alle LOOP 
 --Auf Code prüfen 
 IF (ss_id.code_swisscom IS NOT NULL) THEN 
 --Zustimmung an Swissom gesendet 
 IF (ss_id.ok_sent_swisscom IS NULL) THEN 
 --show red point 
 ELSE 
 --show green point 
 END IF; 
 END IF; 
 END LOOP; 
END; 
END; 
 
Is it possible to set some variables from the current line of the report, where do I have to put this code and how do I have to replace the comment --show ..point (e.g. "<img "down.gif">")
 
Thanks for your help

1- put your images in a directory under the web app directory. Example: app/images/
2- in your jsp, use: String file = application.getRealPath("/images/"); to get the images directory. See http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/ServletContext.html#getRealPath(java.lang.String)
3- it's not the right forum to post this kind of question. Post them in the JSP/Servlet JSTL forum instead

How to open reports in same portlet when clicked on item report links in menu portlet

Hi,
I am not sure what forum I should ask this question. Anyway, I am trying in the content areas forum.
Let me explain what I trying to do.
I have reports links as menu item links in a menu. I have published this menu to portal and added it to a page. I can now see the report links. If I now click on the report link, it opens the report in a whole window. How do I open the report in the same portlet or if this is not possible, how do I open this in a different portlet on the same page ?
thanks for helping.
Mainak

Hi,
This is part of JPDK. You will have to install it. Which version of portal are you using? You can also try this out using
URL portlet which is available with webview in 309.
Thanks,
Sharmila

Report Link + Authorization Scheme

I have an authorization scheme that checks whether a certain person has privileges to edit a record on Page 2 by referring to the :P2_ID in the authorization scheme. Page 1 has a report with a report link, but the user can see both items they are able to edit and items they are not. I know I can make the link dynamically in the sql but wanted to see if there was an easy way to use an authorization scheme, but pass the #REPORT_COL# value in the report over to an authorization scheme to show or hide the icon for me so I can get the link out of the sql.

Great example Scott! However, I'd would caution the other Sc0tt that calling functions in a SQL statement is fine for a small number of rows, but can CRUSH performance for medium to large result sets. Even if the function is fast, you're still context-switching between SQL and PL/SQL for every row. Make sure you test this with the volume of data you expect your users to encounter. If it's a problem, you might force the user to apply some filters before running the query.
If you're running 11g you can at least minimize the hit of the function with "Function Result Cache". Even if you're not on 11g yet, you can use the following code in 10g and it will switch-on result cache when you compile it in 11g:
create or replace function auth_user(p_key in number)
     return varchar2
     $IF not dbms_db_version.ver_le_10_2 $THEN
          result_cache
     $END
as
begin
    pkg.g_value := p_key;
    if apex_application.public_security_check (p_security_scheme => 'AUTH_USER_COLUMN') then
        return '1';
    else
        return '0';
    end if;
end;
/ If it is a reasonable result set, Scott's solution is perfect.
Thanks,
Tyler

No data found when display image in report

Hi,
I have a table with a blob field in it which I use to store some image (gif),
I tried to display the image in report but follow the guideline in http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/doc/doc.41/e21674/advnc_blob.htm#BCGBCHBD
but when I run the report, error
"report error:
ORA-01403: no data found"
prompt, I do not have MIME,FILENAME column in the table, so I define only
IMAGE,Table Name,Column containing BLOB,Primary Key Column 1 and Primary Key Column 2 in the report column.
Anyone has also this problem?
Thanks
Pek

Hi,
I found that the problem is there when I select the option
"Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only)" in the report.
Is this a bug?
