Launch applications in new Window from UWL

Hi
I have lot of work Items in my UWL. Each could be an SAP Transaction or a WebDynpro Application. I just want them to be launched in a seperate window.
Murali.

Hi
This option is working fine for normal pages. But I need to open the tasks in a New Window.
I changed this property for Two Iviews:
Tasks & Universal Worklist under Contents provided by SAP > End user content > Standard Portal Users > Iviews.
It is not working. I need to Launch WebDynpro Apps & Transaction Iviews.
Any Suggestions.
Murali.

Is it possible to launch SAP GUI (not webGui for windows) from UWL

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to launch a transaction or document in SAP GUI (not WebGUI for windows) from UWL? If yes - how do I achieve that?
Appreciate your help.
Giri.

Hi,
Yes, you can create an SAP transaction iview and open that iview. Refer following link for task launch :

Is there a way to open a new window from the "Go" menu in Mavericks?

Before Mavericks, I was able to go from the Finder to the top menu "Go" -> "Utilities", or Applications or Home… and a new window would open.
Now I have to manually open a new window to avoid loosing my existing window.

First, as others have already stated.....make sure the checkbox is deselected for "open folders in tabs instead of windows" in Finder Preferences.
If you're like me and don't like tabs very much, there is a way to make folders always open in windows with a simple click (I'm using Mavericks 10.9.5). Go to a root folder (for example, the Documents Folder), open it, and select View > Hide Toolbar, then all folders within that root folder will open in a new window.
As an alternative method, any folder can be opened in a new window by holding down either Command Key while clicking the folder. But sooner or later you will forget to hold down that key, and then clicking on a folder will open in a tab (which will automatically resize the window and cause much aggravation).
The Hide Toolbar trick will also work with any folder present on the Desktop. It will make all folders inside that folder open in new windows.
To make the Applications Folder open in a new window when opening it from the menu bar at the top of the screen, you will have to open the main hard drive folder and use the Hide Toolbar trick. This will cause all folders inside it to open in new windows.
Hope this helps.

"open in new window"- from favorites panel - bridge

Hi Bridge, I love your way of working
However 2 things make my hair rise
- I can't "open in new window" from a favorited location. only in the "content" panel... which is rather "weird"
- I have to "reveal in finder" to be able to zip/rar files.
Please fix this, I know i am not the only one who would love this.

- I can't "open in new window" from a favorited location. only in the "content" panel... which is rather "weird"
To be honest, I never thought about that option, I always use the shortcut cmd + N for a new window and point to a folder in either folder panel or favorites panel. There is always something to learn
Having the same option in Favorites as in Folder panel would be very logical indeed!
- I have to "reveal in finder" to be able to zip/rar files.
I think you are bound to do so always because Bridge is in fact a browser and in itself not capable of editing files. The export panel did some tasks with resizing but has been discontinued in CC.
Only if Adobe made an application to unzip or open other packages the possibility for using the tools menu and reach the start up script for such app would be the shortest road possible to my knowledge. But also AFAIK Adobe does not offer such application.
And using MacOsX 10.8.4 my downloaded zip files are unzipping themselves automatically...
Please fix this, I know i am not the only one who would love this.
This won't work because this is a user to user forum, use the feature request option here:

Open iviews in new window from detailed navigation context menu function

hello,
when we click in the detail navigation menu and in the context menu (because many of ours users are used to right click to open a link in a new window on the internet) on the functionnality "open in new window", the start page is always display instead of the corresponding iview ...
could you tell me if there is a configuration into the portal to :
1- suppress the function "open in new window" from the context menu in the detailed navigation !
2- make the iview displayed into the new window really the iview desired !
best regards,
Olivier.

Hi Olivier,
The frist part is very precise. Not possible. Period. The reason is that the links are calling JS and not directly calling a http target.
About the second part: Within the Light Framework, you create a Light Detailed Navigation. And in this case, the links are direct http links. So with that, you have what you want.
For the Light Framework see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/43/0174a642406db7e10000000a422035/frameset.htm and around.
Hope it helps

How can I get a query in the search field to open in a new tab or new window from the current window?

How can I get a query in the search field to open in a new tab or new window from the current window?

If you are searching via the Search Bar on the Navigation Toolbar, this preference can be changed to have searches there open in a Tab.
Type '''about:config''' in the Address Bar and hit Enter. Then answer "I'll be careful". Type this pref in the Search at the top.
'''browser.search.openintab''' = double-click to toggle to '''true'''

When I launch Firefox 5, two (2) windows open: the "What's New" window and a second window with the correct Home Page. How do I stop the "What's New window from opening when I launch Firefox 5?

Further: I'm running Windows XP.
This happens every time I open Firefox 5 and began just after I upgraded to 5.0.
Note: I've tried suggestions from the various posts in this forum from people who have similar problems, but with no luck. The problem still persists. Does anyone have any suggestions ??

hello, this might happen when firefox is not able to properly save preferences in its profile folder. please try this: Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and then click help [[Image:Help-29]] > troubleshooting information > profile folder - "show folder". then a new window will open up. in this window look out for a file named '''user.js''' (it might be used to overwrite your custom settings). in case it is present , delete or rename this file and restart firefox afterwards.
for more information and other steps please also see: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]]

How to get generated HTML file to display in new window from FileDownloadActionListener?

Hi,
I am using Jdeveloper version 11.1.1.5.
I have a use case where the user can produce a report upon the click of a command button. They can generate 3 types of reports, HTML, PDF or Excel depending on which option they select in the radio buttons preceding the 'generate report' command button.
The files are created in the background (XML file created based on View Objects which is then transformed using the relevant API for the report type and then produces a file which is held in servers temp directory) and is served out through a FileDownloadActionListener component programmatically, which itself is surrounded by a Command Link with visibility property set to 'false' (as per this blog:http://www.jobinesh.com/2010/01/customizing-execution-of-to-validate.html).
Everything works fine in that the reports generate correctly and after clicking on the 'generate report' button the browser's 'Open/Save' dialog box appears asking the user what they would like to do with the file. I am using Internet Explorer as that is what most of the client users will be using.
The issue I'm having is as follows. For PDF and Excel types when the user clicks on 'Open' the file opens in separate Adobe Reader or MS Excel application windows respectively, which is as expected and required. However, the HTML document opens within the same browser window within which the application is running and from where the 'generate report' button was clicked. The issues this presents is that if the user closes the browser window displaying the report then they will need to open a new window to re-establish connection to the application. If they click the browser 'back' button then it takes them back to the original page but not in exactly the same state as it was before the report was launched i.e. there are some components missing and the page doesn't display correctly.
Is there another way for me to achieve this or is it even possible? I tried setting the 'useWindow' property of the invisible command link surrounding the FileDownloadActionListener to 'true' which didn't work. I tried to surround it with a Go Link instead of a command link but that gave me NullPointerException's, I think because you can only use a component which has an 'Action' property?
I appreciate your assistance as always.

Hi,
I'm not sure if this solution is appropriate to your situation, but I had the same problem with trying to redirect from a commandLink to a new window. In the method that is called by the links action I used the following:
// Open the url in a separate browser window
ExtendedRenderKitService erks =
Service.getRenderKitService(fctx, ExtendedRenderKitService.class);
StringBuilder script = new StringBuilder();
script.append("window.open('" + url + "', '', '');");
erks.addScript(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(), script.toString());

Launch URL in new window?

Is it possible to launch a URL to open a webpage from within captivate and have it open in a completely new window with a predefined window size. If I select the - Open URL or file with the New option- it will launch the webpage in a new tab which is the same size as the currently open browser.

Hi there
Captivate is like any other application that allows opening web pages. Sure, it can be done but Captivate offers nothing to help you define that window size. What you will have to do is use JavaScript to make it happen. Configure the button or click box or advanced action so it executes JavaScript, then insert the script you want to run.

Open oracle report in new window from method

Hi,
I have a requirement to do some stuff in the view object, save changes, launch an oracle report 10g in a new window, and then navigate to a new page on a SINGLE button press.
I can get all this done using a command button to call may backing bean and a goButton to launch my report, but need to combine these into a single button.
My question is, is there any way to launch my new window and report from the backing bean?
Or is there some other way to accomplish these requirements?
this is a JSF/BC app, jdev 10.1.3.3
Thanks,
Jim

What if I have to do validation against the inputs that are used to dynamically generate the report url in the backing bean when clicking the "Button". I couldn't see there is a way for <af:goButton> to implement that. I think there should be some kind of action or listener in the backing where I can do the validation before I decide to open the new window for report.
I searched the forum and there is a post that will use a form to open the report window using target="_blank" in the form's attribute, but that works only if we don't have to validate the inputs.
I also tried to find a solution that will open a new windows in the backing bean by invoking a javascript, that javascript function will have the report url generated in the backing bean as the parameter. But so far, I couldn't find one with my ADF version 10.1.3.2.0. It looks like that in ADF 11, this approach might be feasible.
Any idea, hints?

Open swf in new window from parent swf

I'm making a gallery for some flash banners that I had
created in AS3. When I click on a "launch" button, I wanted the
flash banner swf to open in a new window separate from the parent
swf (the gallery). I also wanted the parent swf to remain open.
Is this possible and what would the code look like for
something like this?

ok, I should've also mentioned this, the flash gallery I'm
making is not for the web, it's more for just opening in a flash
player. So I don't really want it to open in a new browser window,
but rather a new swf window, if there is such a thing.
