Making a control invisible at runtime

Hello,
I wnat to write a control that is invisible at runtime - like the history component.
How can a control recognize if it is in a design- or a runtimeenvironment?
Regards,
Nico

Hi Nico,
This is in the SDK release notes, you create a helper function like this in your component:
* Returns true if this SWF is running in Xcelsius at design time, false if not.
public static function isInCanvas():Boolean
     // TODO: remove this function when this gets exposed in the Xcelsius 2008 Component SDK API.
     var globalStyle:CSSStyleDeclaration = StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration("global");
     if (Boolean(globalStyle.getStyle("inCanvas")) == true)
          return true;
     return false;
Then you can use isInCanvas() to find out if the component is in Xcelsius at design-time or not.
So in your case in the constructor you could do something like this:
visible = ! isInCanvas();
Regards
Matt

While making field invisible at runtime in FPM_FORM_UIBB that row is coming as blank

Hi All,
In one of the requirement we are making one of the fields indivisible at runtime in the method - GET_DATA of the class - CL_HRESS_PER_DETAIL.
But row in which the filed is made invisible is coming as blank .
Is there any way to change the row number of the fields at run time .
Thanks
Amol

We don't have option for specifying the row / column options at runtime.
In structure FPMGB_T_FIELDUSAGE We have only Mandatory/Visibility/Read-only/Enabled options to set for any field.

Making Portal Content Visible/Invisible at Runtime

Hi SDNers,
I'm having a Portal Content Hierarchy which goes till 5 levels. The hierarchy includes roles, subroles, worksets, pages etc at different levels.
Now, the scenario is, not all the subroles should be visible to every user. I would like to make some WorkSets, Pages invisible for some user according to the specified role.
Means if a user doesnt have authorizations to do certain operations, those Pages, WorkSets should not be visible.
A Solution would be to prepare multiple Hierarchies according to the specified role. But those combinations are so many that I'm not feeling comfortable with the approach of making all the hierarchies statically.
I tried to find the solution with "Portal Content Permissions" but unfortunately couldnt come up with one.
Please let me know if anyone has any ideas for the same.
Thanks in advance,
Mausam

Hi,
Use PCDFilter, which can be used to filter role and workset content depending on the users.

Way to change database control connection at runtime

Is there a way to change the database connection (the @jc:connection data-source-jndi-name) at runtime? I want to build only one database control and be able to use it against different connections.

Hi,
There is no way to do this as of now.
Ejbcontrol and service control has a method setJndiName and setEndPoint(wsdl url) respectively to do so. But database control doesn't and is a good enhancement.
Thanks a lot,

How to resize JDialog after making some fields invisible?

Hi,
I have many fields in a JDialog box. And I am making some of them invisible (based on some logic).
Even though I am using invisible, the dialog size is not resized automatically.
I can see so much space and it is not good.
Is there any way so that I can resize this dialog?

Praveen

Workset Visible/Invisible during runtime

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement where Iview is assigned to Page, Page is assigned to workset, workset is assigned to Role. The Iview consists of reports fetched from the backend . The end user has to see the workset if he has reports in the Iview if not the workset should be invisible.
Is there a way where I can Visible/Invisble the workset during runtime based on the content fetched from R/3 system in Iview.
Regards,
Madhan

Hi Madhan,
Visiblity of workset can't be changed at runtime in current exisitng features.
In practical situatrions I dont think, bakcend report iViews change so much frequently that, you have to decide visibility of workset based on iView report availbility.
So please check this.

Disable / enable table control field at runtime

hi ,
i am working on a custom transaction in which i have a table control...depending on a table value i have to disable an input field inside the table control...
i know in a normal field we use
loop at screen.
if screen- name = 'XXX' or screen-group = 'XXX'
screen-output = 0.
endif.
but inside a table control field how to modify it.
Regards
Harish Ramakrishnan

All you need to do is put some code in a module of your PBO.     This will change the cell attribute of a single row.
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
* PBO FLOW LOGIC FOR TABLECONTROL 'I_INTRCON'
* MODULE I_INTRCON_CHANGE_TC_ATTR.
* MODULE I_INTRCON_CHANGE_COL_ATTR.
LOOP AT   I_INTR
       WITH CONTROL I_INTRCON
       CURSOR I_INTRCON-CURRENT_LINE.
<b>    MODULE I_INTRCON_CHANGE_FIELD_ATTR.</b>
ENDLOOP.
MODULE SET_CURSOR_FIELD.
MODULE STATUS_0200.
module i_intrcon_change_field_attr output.
modify i_intr index i_intrcon-current_line.
if i_intr-check = 'X'.
    loop at screen.
      if screen-name = 'I_INTR-RCVQTY'.
        screen-input = '1'.
      endif.
      modify screen.
    endloop.
endif.
endmodule.

Conditionally making a field invisible.....

XMLP Gurus,
Some of the values in a column has dots(.). Conditionally i have to make it invisible.
I tried replacing null value for a dot using decode function, but in this case the other column values are shifting themselves up by taking place of null values thus losing sync with other columns.
After the decode statement i want the null value to remain null in sync with the other columns instead of replacing the null value with a value below it (shifting up)
Thanks in advance.

Hi venkat,
Thanks for the reply.
Originally the problem persisted with the null values in the column and it is getting shrinked when the statement goes to the second page.
This template is already created and I need to modify it. There are six different columns in the template and each column has its own for each and END for each (similar grouping for all say G_XYZ).
Say in the 5th column if the first row in the second page(continuation from first page) is null then it is shiftng itself up losing sync with the other columns.
To over come this I used decode in the 5th column field. I replaced the null value with a dot. It is working fine now(shrinking problem is nailed) but the users dont like the dot in place of null value.
I tried to make the dot invisble using:
<?if:AMOUNT_DUE=''?><xsl:attribute xdofo:ctx="block" name="background-color">white</xsl:attribute><?end if?>
But it is throwing error: " XML-22047: (Error) Invalid instantiation of 'Attribute' in 'Element' context." .
It does not like ctx="block" and if I replace block with line or inline, it is working as expected.
The solution I am looking for now is to avoid shrinking of null values at first place. If not then substitute this null with some value that is invisible (say invisible dot) and avoid shrinking.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks.......

Making the fields invisible or etc. at the item overview screen

At the header data of the sales documents, there exist incoterms and payment terms. I want to make those invisible at the item overview screen (under Billing Document tab). I just want those data root from the header data, not from the item data. I don't want to enter data (about payment terms or incoterms) on the item overview screen.

Thank you for your consideration but can you please explain step by step.
Also to be more clear; the incoterm datas of the sales document's items come from the customer master data. Person can change or enter data about incoterms although there may exist different incoterm data at the header. That's why I want to hide or make unchangeable the incoterm field at the billing document tab of item data.
Thanks in advance.

Making a button invisible with ActionSctript 3?

Couldn't wait, eh!... kidding... btnName.visible = true; btnName.visible = false;

Making a component invisible...

Hi,
I'm trying to make a component in my movie invisible using
the instance._visible = false ActionScript command. It's a button
that was converted to a symbol from a series of filled rectangles
and ovals. It will not go invisible although I can use the same
script on a simple, independent text-box and it works fine. Am I
missing something?
Thanks in advance - Jim.

Thanks for responding. It's working. But I still have some
minor questions.
1) When I put the code within the onMotionFinished function,
it doesn't work. But when I place it at the very beginning (before
the tweening), it works. Why is this?
2) Also, what is the difference between using:
this._visible = false; versus
this.red_mc.triggerBox_red_btn._visible = false; or just
red_mc.triggerBox_red_btn._visible = false;? The latter 2 do
not work. Why is this?
thanks you very much for your help.

Making Credit control area filed mandatory in F-29

Hi
Our customers give advances. We have three credit area depending on 3 separte business lines.
When any users post advances to customers, user forgets to enter credit control area in F-29. So i want to make credit control area field mandatory in F-29.
I do not find this field in field status variant. So that option is gone.
I also tried with SHD0. But SAP tells that SHD0 cannot be used for parameters transactions.
I tried with Validations. Its working fine. But i am keen to explore above two options.
Please help.

In GGB0 it is possible to make
KKBER mandatory for data
entry in more data button for
customer recon a/c line item
F-29. I have myself done it. Please proceed as
follows
Go to GGB0 Financial
Accounting..Line item
Create validation name
Go to step----Prerequisite
write
( BKPF-TCODE = 'FBA1' ) AND
( BSEG-KOART = 'D' )
Go to check now and write
BSEG-KKBER = '123' (you can mention as many as credit control area here)
Go to message
Create an error message and assign
to the validation you
created.
For BSEG-KKBER = '123' i
wrote 123 as dummy you
can mention as many credit
control area as have defined
