New editor: %SurroundedText% in pattern

What does that mean in the editor configuration. If I click on bottom right corner of editor window, the options menu opens. OK - No help at all, the new SAP stanbdard.
What does the parameter %SurroundedText% in patterns like this stand for:
DO | TIMES.
%SurroundedText%
ENDDO.
just curious if it is of any use.
Regards,
Clemens

... as in my other question:
mark block, right-click, format -> surround with pattern
Obvious, isn't it?

Clemens

Insert email link missing in new editor??

The new editor it seems to be missing inserting a email link.. If I highlight text in the editor and click the insert link button in the toolbar, there is no option for inserting a email address as a link like in the old editor - unless I am missing something? Telling my clients that they have to insert mailto:[email protected] in the external link field seems pretty silly and backward.
Any plans to add this BASIC functionality back into the BC Editor?

Should not be too hard to add under external link in the link manager a email one.
This is all beta Alexander and BC know they got more things and bug fixes to add to it.

Regular Expressions in the new editor

Hi,
we just ubgraded to SAP GUI 6.40 and ERP 2005, when i hit ctrl-h the search and replace dialog is popping up in the new editor. But the checkbox "regular expression" is greyed out and cant be activated. Why?

Hi, I can only confirm that. The help indicates that it should work, but on the screencaps, it's grayed out too.
Besides that,
Open completion automatically after is not implemented yet (is mentioned in the help).
There are also problems with the incremental search backwards. It works only once.

How to activate New Editor for XSLT Transformations?

Hello Everyone!
I am currentlyworking on some Simple Transformations (Txn STRANS). As I am very happy with the New Frontend Editor, I would like to use the new Editor for editing Simple Transformations, like I do, when editing usual ABAP Code.
Where can I activate the New Editor fpr XSLT Programs? I have already set the Flag to use the new editor when editing ABAP Code, but this Flag unfortunately has to influence on the editor used for XSLT programs... ;-(
Greetings

Hi all,

New Editor bug

The new editor has a bug. When you add 'required' (a legal HTML5 attribute) to an input element it deletes it. You have to add required="required" to make it stick. This is XHTML not HTML5.
i.e.
<input type="text" name="myTextbox" required>
gets rewritten to
<input type="text" name="myTextbox" >
on save.

Yeah, sorry. Bad coding on my part, but I think it's something that will catch people out as BC supplies its form inputs with XHTML markup,
i.e. <input type=text" /> rather than <input type="text">
That's what caused it to break in the first place, not a bug

ABAP new Editor problem

Hi,
Whenever i want to activate the New ABAP Editor, the SE38 always hangs. So i have to change it back to Old Editor to open Se38. How can i open se38 in new editor??
current sap version ECC 6.0
SAP GUI Release is 710 Final Release
Patch level 0
Plz help...
Thanks in advance...

I had the same issue and realized that some of my colleagues could display the programs. I was convinced that it had to be authorisations because all auths was taken away the previous day and then reinstated for post go-live support.
However - I scratched around and found that if you switch back to the old editor I can view the code (that is the workaround). I then asked the SAP security manager to look into my profiles and something she did enabled me to switch back to the new editor. Here is in her words how she fixed it - "It was a profiles thing"... Afraid not of much help but might give you a starting point. In the mean time you can use the workaround
Bottom line is that it is an authorisations issue.
Cheers,
Corné

New Editor, no breadcrumb

Hi,
the old BC editor had this nice breadcrumb at the bottom to show all tags, a text is wrapped into. One could simply click the "remove tag" link right to the breadcrumb to get rid of redundant markup (p > p > strong > font > font). Is there any similar function in the new editor, too?

Claudia,
As with any editor - Enter - Paragraph, Shift enter - line break. Same for word, notepad... Everything
What Cristinel said is correct, At the moment it is creating blank paragraphs and breaks for no reason as it as a few tweaks etc still to go yet - But when they are addressed its a lot cleaner editor but that is because its handling things better. Paste direct from word into it and look at the code - really clean.

No new editor for Text elements in Smart forms

Hello all,
I've a problem on SAP demo system (version 7.2). When I add new Text element on window then on tab General Attributes I'm only able to see ComboBoxes for "Text Type", "Start", button pencil (for going into fullscreen old editor) and button for checking object. The last thing is that I can also see here label "Use the fullscreen text editor". When I've checked on other systems I saw that instead of that label there is new editor here, and clicking on pencil button leads to new fullscreen editor.
Does anybody know where I can enforce smartforms builder to use new editor?
Best regards
Marcin Cholewczuk

Hello Marcin,
Is the text edit portion showing as disabled?
FYI i don't have MS Office installed on my frontend & in my case the text edit is disabled. Is this the case with you as well

Problem using new editor

Hi people! I hava a strange issue in my machine. I'm currently using SapGUI 710 patch level 7 in my PC. I'm trying to use the new editor, but when I set it and try to open any source codes in SE38 or in SE80 (source codes editor in general) the SapGUI freezes and the only way to get off this, is endind SapLogon with a right click on tray of windows.
Anyone already seen this? If I use the new editor in other machine with the same SapGUI and same server, its works fine...this problem is specific to my machine...
Thanks a lot!

Hi Jack
I encountered the same problem last week in upgrading from 710 Patch 5 to 710 Patch 9. Uninstalling and applying a previous patch to the last one you installed will fail also. Incidentally prior to installing Patch 9, I was happily editing source code in the new editor.
This is how I managed to resolve it:
Had a look around the net and found information on SAPSWEEP.EXE (created by SAP themselves). Used SAPSWEEP.EXE from the setup folder of SAP GUI 640 - this will remove Registry entries and files if you tell it too. I cleared everything at first. If you use this, pull the network cable on the machine in question just in case. It detected a SAP GUI setup I had copied to my Temp folder in case I lost network access, and did think about removing that however I stopped the program running at that point. So it may (I don't know as I did not want it to check the Network drives) delete install instances if you are not careful.
I then removed the following folders (due to the failed uninstall earlier):
C:\Program Files\SAP
C:\Program Files\Common\SAP Shared
C:\Documents and Settings\<my userid>\SapWorkDir
C;\Documents and Settings\<my userid>\Local Settings\Temp (all files removed)
Rebooted laptop.
Re-installed SAP GUI 710 Patch 0. Editing code worked at this point.
Re-installed SAP GUI 710 Patch 9 and still able to edit the code.
I believe my problem came about after a possible corruption involving LIBRFC32.DLL, but I then also lost network connectivity and the ability to acquire a DHCP delivered IP Address. I understand that in 710 the RFC methods have been enhanced, plus MS recompiled the LIBRFC32.DLL using Visual Studio 2005 (rather than .NET 2003).
I have not upgraded to Patch 10 (corporately we are evaluating Patch 9 for release).
Hope that helps to get you back editing again!
Nick

New Editor typing buffer problem

I frequently run into a problem when using the New Editor.
The screen frequently lags behind what I'm typing for several seconds.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Are there any settings I need to make?

Hello Recardo,
I don't know on which version you are running but I had a similar problem after installing 710. But there is a patch available that solved it. Check with your basis team, if they can download the patch and provide it to you.
Hope that solves your problem.
The version I have is release 710 Final Release, file version 7100.1.1.1028 build 898946

New editor: no auto- angle bracket

Hi all,
after installing SAPGUI 710 patch level 10 the auto-completion for brackets only works for square brackets [] and normal brackets () but not any longer for angle brackets <>.
I already modified the xml scheme at C:\Programme\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui\ab4_data\xml_spec.xml
Parameter OpenClose is shown as ()[]''<>.
But it still does not work.
How to resolve?
TIA,
regards,
Clemens

Sorry, I marked this answered yesterday:
With the new 700 SAPGUI and editor rollout they corrected one big shortcoming of the new editor: Before the user-specific settings were stored with thje local SAPGUI installation, now they are stored in the windows user settings directory.
In my case (german windows), I modified file abap4_spec.xml
in directory
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\re31472\ab4_data
Note: You may find the same file in
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\re31472\SapWorkDir\ab4_data
Here I did not apply the changes described in my preceding comment(s).
Sometimes questions about the quality assurance process wait for answers
Regards,
Clemens
P.S.: It is a good strategy to wait for a stable release and accept humiliation of missing features. Still it may be a valid strategy to find out how to use new features while it is anything but stable.
