Maximum number of rows and columns in data form

Hi,
I wanted to know if there is a limitation to the number of rows and columns that can be displayed in a data form, in Hyperion planning 11.1.2.1 ?
And what would be the most appropriate number of rows and columns to be included for optimum performance.
Thanks.

Hi,
While its a fun fact to determine how much one can stuff into a web form, the reality is: how much can a user reasonably consume in a web form?
And what would be the most appropriate number of rows and columns to be included for optimum performance
You will find that the answer to this is by "what design makes a web form most usable?" And no, the users don't really know what they want from a design perspective, they see it in their head, but usually what they ask for is something that would look entirely different (huge).
The next thing to think about is the use of member selection functions in the page axis. IDescendants(Entity) in a dropdown could cause issues just as easily as too many rows - and again make the drop down unusable for a user.
If your question is a bit more technical, then consider this (somewhat oversimplified): Web forms are constructed by a process on the server. Objects are created based on the form's definition and used by the process that builds the form. The process uses Cartesian looping (lots of iterations) to construct the form cell by cell, starting at the top left and finishing up in the bottom right. If the form has a million cells on it, then the loop and all the code within it runs a million times. The capability of the server has a lot to do with how well it can handle this request, and how many it can handle at one time.
The result of this is gobs of HTML and JavaScript. All of this has to be sent over a network to the requesting client. The client starts receiving the web page code and has to render it in the browser and run the JavaScript. The ability to do this is limited by the browser, the OS, and the hardware that the client is running on.
And that's just rendering the page for use.
Now it has to be interacted with on the client machine, and changes parsed, packaged, and sent back to the server.
So the technical answer is, there can be many limitations to how many rows and columns a data form can have - none of which can truly be anticipated by anyone. This is why I put the part about usability first in this post.

How to get number of rows and columns in a two dimensional array ?

Hello,
What would be the simplest way to get number of rows and columns in a two dimensional array represented as integers ?
I'm looking for another solution as For...Each loop in case of large arrays.

Setting number of rows and columns

How do I set the number of rows and columns of a table, say 2348 rows by 3 columns?
Then how do I quickly select the last row?
Also, if I enter a formula in row 1 column 2, how do I quickly copy that formula down to row 1435, or to the end of the column? Dragging seems slow and awkward.

I wish to add a few words to Jerrold responce.

The process that you describe is inefficient.
The efficient one is :
create a table
enter the formulas in a single row
delete the rows below.
Now, each newly inserted row will contain the formulas.
From my point of view, it's when this is done that it will be interesting to apply a script adding rows.
Here is a script inserting rows.
--[SCRIPT insertRows]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : insertRows.scpt
déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
Sélectionner une cellule au-dessous de laquelle vous voulez insérer des lignes.
menu Scripts > Numbers > insertRows
Le script vous demande le nombre de lignes désiré puit insère celles-ci.
--=====
L'aide du Finder explique:
L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
--=====
Save the script as a Script: insertRows.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
Select a cell below which you want to insert rows.
menu Scripts > Numbers > insertRows
The script ask you the number of rows to insert then it does the required insertion.
--=====
The Finder's Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the "Show Script Menu in menu bar" checkbox.
Save this script as a … Script in the "Folder Actions Scripts" folder

Web Form :Number of rows and columns

Hi All,
I have a web form with many rows and columns . Is it possible for a user to view only a limited rows in the form ? Not using Adhoc/Analyze option . since there are formula rows which wont appear in Analyze grid.
The user want to see only 5 to 10 random rows in the form ? How to do this ?
Please help.

I remember an option in 11.1 which allows users to dynamically add rows and I cannot find that in 11.1.2.2
I think the user will have to always update the user variable to what he want to see.
Regards

Setup for discoverer table for showing number of Rows and columns of Report

As oracle discoverer report show "Rows 1-25 of"(Total rows) and "Column 1-6 Of"(Total Column).
This total rows and columns information's is not appearing on our reports.
Kindly let us know its setting/setups .
This is very urgent to us, Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks, Avaneesh

Hmm, what version of Discoverer are you on? Do I understand you correctly that you are able to run a Discoverer report and see this rows and columns information? What software are you running when you do this - Viewer, Plus, or Desktop? Where is this showing up - the top of the report maybe? Or maybe the bottom of the report? The only thing I can think of to handle this is the Page Setup for a workbook, and looking at the Header and Footer sections of that setup. But I am on Discoverer 10.1.2.2 and I don't see anything I can insert on the header/footer that would show this kind of information. Desktop will let you do Page x of y pages (Plus does not), but that is not what you are seeing. You can maybe look at the page setup and see if there is something there not documented in the Discoverer guides.

Limitation of row and column in FR report

Hi all,
i want to know what is the maximum number of row and column that we can display in FR report.
and is there any possibility to increase the number of row and column in FR reports,if yes then how?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Andy,
I think your asking if this or something similar could be used to go to another page rather than as a popup? The answer is yes. since you have already done the decode in your query, you can just go to the Report Attributes tab (I'm using version 2.2.1.00.04) and click the edit button for the column. Then, you can simply go to the
HTML Expression [Insert column value] text area and insert:
<!--
<b>#A#<b>
This will give you everything that is in the column link section, but I find it easier to work with since it's all together (personal preference).
I reread your post and realized that you wanted to pass the A as a value and not the summary value of the column. I simply removed the #'s. I think this should work. I also kept the summary value using the #A# as the link. I belive that you can copy and paste this into each column (replacing the A with the appropriate column header of course...).
If I were doing this I might create a CASE statement in the query and evaluate for null before creating the link. Here is an example of using that approach:
CASE WHEN "STATUS" = 'U' AND ("CREATEDBY"=:APP_USER OR :APP_USER='MY_USER')
THEN ''
|| '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#edit.gif" border="0" alt="Click here to Edit">'
|| ''
ELSE ''
END LINK,

Dynamic add row/columns to data forms(11.1.1.3) v/s (11.1.2.1)

Hello All,,
There used to be an option in Hyperion planning 11.1.1.3 to Dynamic add rows in data form. I don't see this option in planning 11.1.2.1 ?
Could you please suggest how we can grant right users to add dynamic add rows and columns in data forms? or it is possible in 11.1.2.1 ?
out user want to have a feature of adding row in data forms (planning forms)
Thank you
Edited by: 842804 on Aug 17, 2011 12:49 PM

Do you mean 11.1.2, if so then adhoc web forms really take over from adding rows as they add much more functionality.
Cheers

Rows and column limit on Data Grids

Hello,
anyone know if there's a limit for the number of rows and columns per page in the Data Grids?
Thanks in advance

There is not a limit. There is a default of 1024 rows, but you can change this.

Sumproduct row and column?

hello --
it seems fairly straight forward to use sumproduct for two columns or two rows of a given length. how can i do the same for a row and a column of the same length. i keep getting an error when i do that. do i need to use a different function to get the desired result? basically what i am trying to do it:
sumproduct((A1:A5),(C1:C5))
thank you in advance for your help.

The arguments to the sumproduct() function require the same dimensions. I think this mean the same number of rows and columns. Therefore a range from A1 to A5 is 5 rows , 1 column, whereas a range from C1 thru C5 is 1 row and 5 columns.
I suggestion something like this to make the range in the C1 thru C5 reside in B1 thru B5:
Now you can perform the sum product on column A and B.
B1=OFFSET($C$1, 0, ROW()−1)
this is shorthand for select cell B1, then type (or copy and paste from here) the formula:
=OFFSET($C$1, 0, ROW()−1)
select cell B1, copy,
select cells B1 thru B5, paste
For this example:
D3=SUMPRODUCT(A, B)

New tab page rows and columns problem

Hi.
After a recent update and making new tab links smaller, I've decided to increase number of rows and columns, put my most frequently used bookmarks in there and close bookmarks toolbar to improve visibility. Since yesterday (March 26 2014.) I lost my bottom row, although there is enough space on my screen. In about:config newtab section, it still says I'm having 6 columns and 5 rows, but I only get 4 rows when I open new tab. What might be the problem, and why did you make those newtab links smaller anyway?

Hello,
You're using Nightly, which is a highly experimental version of Firefox intended for testing. In the latest version, modifying the ''browser.newtabpage.columns'' and ''browser.newtabpage.rows'' preferences in about:config behaves as you describe (in my case, I actually only get 3 rows, presumably because of higher DPI settings). This issue has already been reported.

JTable - Rows and columns

I have created a JTable that displays the results from a query. My question is how can I get the JTable to display only a given number of rows and columns and have a scrollbar to see the rest of the cells?
Thank you

an easy way would be to use setSize()

Maximum number of infoobjects in rows and columns?

Hi all,
Please tell me what is the maximum number of characteristics that can be included in the rows and columns of a query?
Thanks in advance

I am not sure if we can change the number of characteristics, but you can have more characteristics in free characteristics. Eventhen you will need to careful that you rollup a few fields before adding new fields to default drilldown.
Normally the idea is to have really necessary fields in default drilldown and keep the other fields in free chara. you can add them to the report as and when required.

Set maximum matrix row and column size

I hope someone can help me with this. Is there any way to set the row and column size of a matrix control? I have not been able to find a solution. The only way I've been able to set the size is by resetting matrix to its previous state if the user inputs a value outside of the bounds I would like to set. This is done in the 'value changed' event case.
The matrix is large and therefore I cannot increase the size of the control to be the maximum size and then hide the row and column index controls. These have to be displayed.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Here's a quick and dirty way.
Simply hide the index controls and replace them with some fake numeric controls and set the data range accoding to your requirements.
In the attached example (LV8.0), the fake index controls are limited to 0..2, the array size is 5x5 and the displayed array portion is 3x3. Seems to work fine.
(Of course you could add a bit more code to set the limits automatically based on the various sizes.)
You could also make it more fancy and turn the entire thing into an Xcontrol.

How to display 2 dimensional data. i.e with rows and columns?

Hi,
I want to know how to display multiple, variable
rows and columns that are got from the database through
queries in forms.
(i,e. a Matrix of Values,something similar to an Excel Spreadsheet).
Is there a component in forms similar to JTABLE that is
available in Java through which MULTIPLE, VARIABLE
rows and columns can be displayed ?.
I am not using a base table since this data is got thru
a number of packages and procedures that are used in
Loops.
NOTE : I am using forms 6i.
Thanks
Sharath.

I've heard Grant mention adding a Grid component to the Forms toolbox. From the context I would guess this is not yet even under development, so it's not going to be available anytime soon. And not for 6i.
Sorry, APC

How to save data from JTable multiple rows and columns

Hi Y_Not thanks for your help before...
But what should I do if I want to get/save many data from many column and rows??

i don't quite understand your (repeated) question. what is the problem with "multiple rows and columns". Y_NOT and i have shown you ways to access them.
all you need are 2 loops: one around your number of rows and one around the number of columns or vice versa depending in which order you want to save things:
for (int col = 0; col < data.size(); col++) {
    for (int row = 0 ; row < data[col].size(); row++) {
        // save your data
        saveData(data[col].getElementAt(row));
        // or use yourtable.getValueAt(row, col);
}this is not a problem of Swing/Java but of simple algorithm...
