Implementing tree control in third level navigation

Hello
1. Is it possible to Implement a tree control inside third level navigation ?
2. How can I make selecting one of the nodes change the display in another iview on the same page ?
(How do they pass data to one another)
3. Is it possible to select several nodes at once ?
P.S
Is there a how to guid out there ?
Thanks
Ziv.

Hi,
I undestand you want to hide/show tree nodes on demand.
in the standard DTN (detailed navigation) it isn't possible.
There are two options -
1. As suggested you can modify the DTN provided by SAP - all the code is under com.sap.portal.navigation.detailedtree.par and the iView name is also com.sap.portal.detailedNavigationTree
2. create this tree from scratch, and put it on the left side instead of the DTN or as a dynamic navigation iView.
For creating navigation iViews by yourself, you can start from here:

Can we control the top level navigation in portal from a java application

Hello,
I am having a scenario where User logged in to portal and assigned with 2 roles (HOME , ISA(Java application)). When user opened a form in ISA (Java application) and tried to enter the data in form and moved to another tab (e.g. HOME) in top level navigation.
When user come back to ISA (Java application) TAB , we show the page where he left earlier. I would like to know if user click any other TAB in top level navigation (Role assigned to him) while working on a page in ISA(Java application) is there any way we can catch that event before he leaves from ISA (Java application JSP page) to other TAB?
How can we control the top level navigation events in the portal from a java application .Since Top level navigation is seperate par file.
Thanks,
RN

Dear Rajesh,
Top Level and detailed navigation values comes with iteration in the respective par file.
Please check the par file and based on the value (i.e tab name) selected, you can write your code.

Single click on tree control navigation

Hello I have a tree control where I have include the navigation, I know that there is a method
HANDLE_NODE_DOUBLE_CLICK FOR G_TREE
but is there an method for only one click, I want to change my alv grid data when I click on several nodes in my tree control

Hello Muhammet
I have re-written my sample report ZUS_SDN_TWO_ALV_GRIDS into ZUS_SDN_TREE_AND_GRID_CONTROL which is now display a tree control together with the ALV grid.
When you analyze this new report you will see that every step of the program logic is as I described in my previous e-mails.

Tree Control - Design Mode - Indent Level

Hi!
In edit mode tree control has indent / outdent level right - click menu. I need this functionality. Indenting and outdenting items. I've implemented, but the in/out Denting does not works well, it the tag has children.
I am wondering, is it possible to call indent/outdent level right-click menu in run mode?
+++ In God we believe, in Trance we Trust +++
[Hungary]

Interesting challenge! The key involves creating your own custom run-time menu items and defining the actions of those items. Consider the following code, attached as an image and LV2010 VI:
a.lia-user-name-link[href="/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/88938"] {color: black;} a.lia-user-name-link[href="/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/88938"]:after {content: '';} .jrd-sig {height: 80px; overflow: visible;} .jrd-sig-deploy {float:left; opacity:0.2;} .jrd-sig-img {float:right; opacity:0.2;} .jrd-sig-img:hover {opacity:0.8;} .jrd-sig-deploy:hover {opacity:0.8;}

Controlling visibility of Second Level navigation tabs in portal

Hello,
I have a request to create second level navigation based on user authorizations. The first level nav is called Applications, the second level navs under it are called SAP and BI. I only want to show SAP for some users and BI for others, and in some cases both.
When I created workset Application and assigned SAP and BI worksets under it, no matter that what authorization I give or not give to the user, both of them show up, unless I remove the role for Application worset, then nothing shows up.
If I remove SAP and BI worksets from Application workset, no matter what I do with roles, they do not show up. I kinda guessed that this will happen but just tried something anyway.
Can someone please explain who this can be done or is it not possible?
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,
The navigation structure does not depend on authorizations but only on the roles assigned to the user (directly or through groups).
For your structure, you would create two roles, one SAP role and one BI role. Both roles start with an RoleFolder "Applications" as the role EntryPoint, where the child of this node within the SAP role is the SAP workset and the child of this node within the BI role is the BI workset. To get them merged, you will have to maintain the mergeID property on the corresponding elements; see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/53/89503ede925441e10000000a114084/frameset.htm for details of the merging concept and properties (that is what you are looking for).
Hope it helps

Complex xml in tree control

every example you see online is trivial and utterly useless
for practical programming purposes...typically you'll see something
like this:
<mx:XML format="e4x" id="myMenuModel">
<root label="Menu">
<menuitem label="MenuItem A">
<menuitem label="SubMenuItem 1-A"/>
<menuitem label="SubMenuItem 2-A" />
</menuitem>
<menuitem label="MenuItem B"/>
<menuitem label="MenuItem C" type="check"/>
<menuitem type="separator"/>
<menuitem label="MenuItem D">
<menuitem label="SubMenuItem 1-D" type="radio"
groupName="one"/>
<menuitem label="SubMenuItem 2-D" type="radio"
groupName="one"/>
<menuitem label="SubMenuItem 3-D" type="radio"
groupName="one"/>
</menuitem>
</root>
</mx:XML>
...just hard coded simplistic xml which is fine and dandy if
you have a simple xml schema and all the leaves of your tree can be
keyed off the same "label" attribute. But what if you have a
complex, deeply nested XML file that doesn't follow this nice
pattern? What if I want to pull different attributes from different
levels in the tree to display, is that even possible? Or what if I
dont want to use the attribute at all for my display label in the
tree, what if I want to use an element node name? Like for example,
say I had:
<department label="marketing">
<employee name="Eric Cartman" Age="8">
<interest>
<type>food</type>
<name>cheesiepoofs</name>
</interest>
<interest>
<type>pets</type>
<name>mr. kitty</name>
</interest>
</employee>
Is there a way I can build my tree to use the department
'label' attribute for the top level, the employee 'name' attribute
for the second level and the <type> element nested under
<interest> for the third level?
I confess I'm a Flex newbie but any other language I've
worked provides a mechanism to tailor this sort of thing to
individual business cases. Any insight would be greatly
appreciated.
thank you.

Another approach is parse your complex xml into objects and
then create your own
tree datadescriptor. This is described in the help. Search on
"custom tree datadescriptor"
We use this approach because the xml we want to display in a
tree does not fit nicely. So we wrote a parser that converts the
xml into "TreeObjects" (our class) and created the custom tree
datadescriptor to handle it. When we create the tree object we can
control the data used for the label so it displays correctly.

Levels in "top level navigation"

Hi All,
As of now our portal consists of 2 levels in "top level navigation"
Now, I am trying to increase the no of levels to 3
I tried this by performing the bleow navigations
1 Logged on to portal
2 Content administration
3 Expanded Poratl Content
4   Expanded Content Provided by SAP
5   Expanded End User Content
6   Expanded Standard Poratl Users
7   Selected "Default Frame work Page"
8    In that selected Top Level navigation Iview and the iveiw properties I changed the property "Number of Display Levels " to 3 and choose save
Restarted the Server
Still I see the 2 levels only
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.

Pradeep

Drop down menu for top level navigation

Dear All,
I recently had a quick peek at SAP's corporate Portal, which has a drop down menu in the top level navigation that dynamically changes the secondary level navigation based on the option selected.
We are currently running a standard portal (not an external facing lightweight framework portal), does anyone know how to achieve a similar result so that we can provide a drop-down menu to allow the user to dynamically change their role structure?
Many thanks
James

Hi James,
We have implemented such thing two years ago, also without EFP (with the light framework, it's easy). It took some days (more than 5) to change every JS, JSP etc which has to be touched for this. In the end, the first level of the navigation had been moved up into the dropdownbox, so that when changing the ddb, the two lines of the originabl TLN showed in fact the second and the third level (and the DTN starting with the fourth level).
It was really nice, but keep in mind that this means modifying the standard and maintaining this solution with new SPS coming up...
Hope it helps

How can I save the all the values of a tree control ?

I have a problem, in run time, I adds new items on a tree control, but i don´t know how I can save the values of the child text of each item in a file.
Thanks.

I'm no expert on the tree control, but I made a small example to save all items to a textfile, including item tag, item string, and indent level. One drawback of this method is that it fully expands the tree regardless how the user left it. To go the other direction, you'd have to write a routine to go through the text file and programmatically build the tree.
To master the tree control, I think you have to resort to creating a control reference for it and using the Invoke Node to do some operations. For another approach to traversing and operating on a tree, check out the "Traversing Tree Controls and Setting Custom Symbols" (search the NI Developer Zone site).
Best of luck,
John

Customized Top Level Navigation iView

Hello to all
We are using a customized TLN iview. Its source code was modified to admit different URLs, and do the filtering depending of the default framework page which is using the TNL iview,
I mean, the TLN would be copied inside a proyect folder on the Portal Content, where would be a DFPage that contains a copy of TNL iview, and this copy would have a different roleFilter attribute.
Then, the TLN was modified again in order to merge roles that had the same name.
Those changes doesn't seem really important, they have just declared some vars, and each of them added one code line. The first one extended the first part of an IF condition, and the second one extended it with another condition, using OR.
The problem is that after the modifications, our TLN doesn't highlight correctly the first node when accessing or refreshing the Portal, instead of it shows a default start page that doesn't belong to any of our roles
The TLN iview has a procedure named PrintNavNodes, which is called on the event OnClick (I assume), and when we accessrefresh the page too.
The iview works well when clicking its buttons, it's just the first time it is used when the wrong page is shown, that's the problem we need to correct.
This procedure (PrintNavNodes) lodges the code changes. The only var modified is String prefix, so maybe anyone could tell me a default value to it, o a way to catch that mistake in order to show another page when the default page is to appear.
Also, I would appreciate if anyone knows about an API, andor a How to... manual, or any kind of documentation about this subject.
We have no possibility of reject the changes, so we need to find an alternative solution. Here is the code...
Thanks in advance, and regards
    private void PrintNavNodes(IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response)

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.

How to render image in tree control without embed it

Hello frndz i am working on tree control and want to show imagein its node through xml list collection.i have searched a lot for this but in every example with tree control images are embeded.i dont want to hardcode the image.Need to make the image comes from database(Xml).so is there any live or demo example for tree control.
Thanks in Advance
Vineet osho

if you decompile the imaging.ear file, there is a web.xml file which you can add the following parameter:
<context-param>
<param-name>oracle.adf.view.rich.security.FRAME_BUSTING</param-name>
<param-value>never</param-value>
</context-param>
or take a look at Receiving "Warning: Unable to load content in a frame. Frame content will load at the top level." When Trying to Use the <af:inlineFrame> Component [ID 1266770.1] on Oracle Support.
Make sure you take a copy of the imaging app before you make changes. You can then upload back through the weblogic console.

Items in Tree control move around when data is submitted using custom ItemRenderer

I'm working on a Tree control with an XMLListCollection as
its dataProvider.
The dataProvider has information looking like this :
quote:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<INFO>
<FIELD label="STR_USER_NAME"
type="text"
value=""
>
</FIELD>
<FIELD label="STR_USER_EMAIL"
type="text"
value=""
>
</FIELD>
<FIELD label="STR_OPTIONAL"
type="branch"
value="0"
>
<FIELD label="STR_USER_ADDRESS"
type="text"
value=""
>
</FIELD>
<FIELD label="STR_USER_POSTAL_CODE"
type="text"
value=""
>
</FIELD>
</FIELD>
</INFO>
So in the Tree control I'd like the information to show up
with a label and
an
editable textbox for each item :
[Label] [textbox]
To do this I made a tree like this :
quote:
<mx:Tree id="userTree"
editable="true"
rendererIsEditor="true"
editorDataField="curVal"
itemRenderer="{new ClassFactory(ItemRendererUser)}"
itemEditEnd="e_ProcessData(event);"
dataDescriptor="{new DataDescriptorUsers()}"
showRoot="false"
verticalScrollPolicy="{ScrollPolicy.AUTO}"
/>
where the e_ProcessData() function looks like this (I used
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/html/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm?href=c
elleditor_073_16.html#202105 as a guide) :
quote:
public function e_ProcessData(event:ListEvent):void
event.preventDefault();
userTree.editedItemRenderer.data.@value =
ItemRendererUsers(event.currentTarget.itemEditorInstance).curVal;
userTree.destroyItemEditor();
userTree.dataProvider.notifyItemUpdate(userTree.editedItemRenderer);
} // END OF e_ProcessData()
I attached the rest of the files because they're a little
bit longer.
When I run the program, the data shows up fine when it is
initialized the
very
first time, and I made a test button that just dumps the
contents of the
dataProvider in a trace statement to verify that the data has
been set
properly.
The problem I've run into is whenever the textfield is
edited, the item
that
I've selected jumps around the list.
For example, if I edit the item "STR_USER_NAME" after I
finish the edit, it
will move from the very first position in the Tree to the
bottom of the
Tree.
I traced the contents of the dataProvider and the
dataProvider structure
stays
the same, with the "STR_USER_NAME" at the top, but if I look
at the flex app
in
the web browser, its position is at the bottom of the Tree.
This happens for every other item I try to edit... I read in
the
documentation
that the ItemRenderers are recycled, so it means I should be
checking to
make
sure the initial states are covered, but I'm not sure how
this affects my
application.
Can anyone help me out with this ? Its very confusing - I've
tried making
an
ItemRenderer using pure actionscript, mxml and the
combination you see in
this
example and I always end up with the same behaviour - So I
must be missing
something critical...
// ItemRendererUsers.mxml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
verticalScrollPolicy="{ScrollPolicy.OFF}"
horizontalScrollPolicy="{ScrollPolicy.OFF}"
creationComplete="initItemRendererUsers();"
>
From my FAQ:
Q: I've created a custom itemRenderer component to use in a
List
based component (Datagrid, TileList, HorizontalList, etc.).
When my List
first displays, everything looks fine, but when I scroll it
or change the
dataProvider, some of the itemRenderers show values or
formatting that
aren't right. How do I fix this?
A: List-based components don't draw a renderer for every item
in the
dataProvider. Instead, they create enough to display what is
on screen now,
plus one or two more waiting in the wings. This means they
recycle the
renderers rather than creating new ones when you change
dataProvider or
scroll up and down. When you use a creationComplete event to
set up the
itemRenderer, that event doesn't happen again when the
renderer is used for
a different set of data. The solution to this is to override
the set data
protected function that most components have.

Your set data needs to set a flag that gets picked up in
commitProperties()
and does your thing that you were doing before in
creationComplete. You
should see examples of this in the links I posted. Instead of
this:
_data.@value = inputText.text;
you should look at implementing IDropInListItemRenderer,
which will allow
you to dynamically determine which field to look at, instead
of hardcoding
it. You also might wind up overwriting the stored value with
a null value
when the List passes the stored value in. I'd encourage you
to really go
through those links I posted and make sure you understand
what they're
saying. The itemRenderer life cycle is one of the hardest
things to
understand, but once you understand it, it makes many things
in Flex much
easier. It's worth investing the time.

Report with Dynamic tree control

I have a report with a TREE CONTROL.

A Tree is referenced to: CL_GUI_ALV_TREE_SIMPLE and is located on the left side of the screen.

See diagram below. The Tree has MULTI-LEVEL nodes and the user can click on any of the nodes which will
trigger a report (rellevant for that node) to appear in the REPORT container.

Everythign is working fine.

I now have a requirement to add a TREE ON/OFF functionality. I have added this by 'Freeing' TREE
container and by initializing when the user Turns ON the TREE. It is working fine, HOWEVER, when
it initilizes the TREE it is COLLAPSED and obviously does not point to the NODE that was clicked.

My goal is to retain the value of the NODE that was pressed and EXPAND the tree to that node and
highlight it... Please note that I have MULTI-LEVEL nodes and the user can double click on NODES
and ITEMS.

I tried using GET_SELECTED_NODES, but it only works if the user selects the LOWEST level node/item.

Any advise will be appreciated.

Also, as an alternative, I was thinking of resizing TREE container to WIDTH of 1 when the user PRESSES
TREE OFF and resizing back to width 200 when the user presses TREE ON. I could not find any methods
that would work with CL_GUI_DOCKING_CONTAINER.
Please help! Thank you in advance.
