Ordered and Unordered Lists viewed in WYSIWYG Editor in RoboHelp 10

I recently upgraded a project from RH 9 (9.0.2.271) to RH 10 (10.0.0.287). Ordered and unordered lists display in the WYSIWYG Editor with more spacing around each line. When I generate the output to HTML Help, the spacing looks fine. I also tested generating output to WebHelp, and again, the output looks fine.
I have paragraph and list styles defined in my style sheet that I apply to the text in the topic. I also looked at the styles in RH 10 and Media is set to "None."
Using the Style Pod, I looked at the set up of the parapgraph and list styles. For those styles, (and my body text styles - which look fine in the WYSIWYG Editor) have spacing before and after spacing set. (NOTE: These styles were created in RH8 and the WYSIWYG Editor displayed the styles appropriately in RH8 and RH9.) Even though I changed the style sheet, the WYSIWYG Editor is still displaying more space around the styles then I am expecting.
I know this is not a huge issue since the output looks fine, but I want to understand why the WYSIWYG Editor isn't working as I expect. I would like the editor to display with correct spacing.
I attached a few screen captures showing what I see.
HTML Help Output
Thanks in advance for your help.

I suspect part of the issue is that your list styles have spacing above and below and then you have applied paragraph styles that also have spacing above and below.
Using both is OK and is how I work. However, I do not have any spacing above and below in my list styles. I rely on the paragraph style for that. It looks like Rh's Design Editor is applying both but browsers are not.
It is still not quite the same in a browser as in Design Editor but it is much closer. There will also be browser differences anyway so it's a case of getting some balance.
Try removing the before and after spacing in the list style. Alternatively, if you do not generate printed documentation then rely on the list style only. (Select the lists in a topic and set paragraph to None).
Let us know if that is close enough.

When will Adobe Muse support ordered and unordered lists?

When will Adobe Muse support ordered and unordered lists instead of forcing users to create manually formated bullet points? I've asked this question before, but never saw an answer to it. I know others have asked it as well. Adobe has set a high bar with its other solutions. It doesn't look good that Muse does not support ordered and unordered lists at this late date.

Lance,
Thanks for responding - I guess I pushed a button
My perception of the forums and response from Adobe is based upon looking at most of the postings in the "bugs" forum. There are lots of reads, very few replies.
Given the fact that many users have asked about bullets and other basic text formating I am surprised that there is still no sign of them. Perhaps it is felt that there are workarounds that will do. The truth is, as you noted, that none of the workarounds are great, some are not even practical. For my specific case, I would have been happy to use workaround #1, except that the line items were hyperlinks, and I needed to open them in a separate window using the javascript window.open function. As I've detailed in other posts, there is a real problem with this in Muse. Hyperlinked javascript calls are invoked via the "href=" attribute, but this doesn't work properly in a number of browsers. There isn't a way to tell Muse to use onclick instead (which works for all browsers). This led me to have to use embedded html.
That leads me to try #2, which is to use CSS styling in the embedded html. This too gave me fits. Using a <style> section to set the attributes for <ul> or <li> did not work. I can only assume that the tags inside the embedded HTML have a Muse-generated id or class. I tried to get the bullets by setting the list-style-type in the <ul> tag itself using the style attribute, but this did not work (it should). It does work if you put the list-style-type in the <li> tags. This is pretty tedious, and led me to create text files containing the html separate from Muse so that I can use an editor to copy repeated strings. Then I cut and paste into the embedded html container.
Note that, even though I finally found something that works, it is not visible in the design view, so you can't even tell it works without previewing it!
I haven't tried option #3, but given the need to force the use of onclick I imagine that would not be possible with your widget. I was aware of the list widget however.
I'll have to look at the Mucow docs and give it a try. The docs are a bit light - any plans to flesh them out?
Thanks,
Gareth

What is the differenec between 'sap list viewer' and 'abap list viewer'

hi
what is the differenec between 'sap list viewer' and 'abap list viewer'

Hi,
There is no difference between them.SAP List Viewer (ALV) is the new name of the ABAP List Viewer (ALV).
The SAP List Viewer unifies and simplifies the use of lists in the R/3 System. A uniform user interface and list format is available for all lists. This prevents redundant functions.
The SAP List Viewer can be used to view both single-level lists and multilevel sequential lists.
Single-level lists contain any number of lines that have no hierarchical relationship to each other.
Multilevel sequential lists consist of any number of lines that have two hierarchical levels. Multilevel lists have header rows and item rows; the item rows are subordinate to the header rows. For each header row there can be any number of subordinate item rows.
You can view subtotals and totals rows in both single-level lists and multilevel sequential lists
From End User Point it is SAP LIST viewer , From Developer Point of View it is ALV .

Sales Order and Pick List reports will not attach to Email message

My client wants to email both the Sales Order and Pick List that is created from the Sales Order in the same email message. It appears that SAP B1 will not do this. Is this a bug or just the way B1 works. My client is running version 8.8 PL 19. Thank you for your help.
Bill Turek

Hi Bill,
Pick List is associated with delivery, not sales order. If you need Pick List be emailed, you have to email delivery.
Thanks,

AMSerchControl and Virtual List View

Hi, the "identity server developer's guide" states that the class com.iplanet.am.sdk.AMSearchControl can be used to customized search behoviour with "time limit and virtual list view".
How can use virtual list view ? The javadoc doesn't contains any methods to do virtual list view.
Thanx!

The class is described here: http://docs.sun.com/source/817-7651/com/iplanet/am/sdk/AMSearchControl.html.
You are right, there is nothing there to control VLV searches. That's a bug in the documentation. There is some code in Access Manager that does do VLV searches, but it isn't exposed through this interface.

Drop down list for User ID's and SAP List viewer format

Reverse the order of stacks list view

Is there a way to reverse the order when viewing the contents of a stack in list view by date added?
For example, the downloads stack: the default setting puts the most recently added at the top of the list, meaning I have to scroll up to it, rather than at the bottom, where it'd be right there above the icon to click on.
Thanks for the help

I completely agree with Solar Servant,
The regular stacks view is viewable in this (very practical) direction, so why not the list variety?
thanks for making a more usable OSX a reality

Dbacockpit and the 'List View'-Button

Hi there,
since the update to NetWeaver 7.00 we get the new tac dbacockpit. After implement the required sapnotes it works fine.
But where are my 'List View'-buttons in the old tac db2 esp. Installation Parameters and Subsystem Activity?
This buttons produced a helpfull output to compare the parameters of different systems.
But now there is no way to get an overview on all bufferpools with all the information at one time. It's a long way to go through all bufferpool detail pages.
Is there any way to get back the old behavior of the tac db2 ?
regards
Kay

Kay,
Some of the lists have been disabled since the old design is not in accordance with the 'Accessibility' layout (see service.sap.com/accessibility for more details ).
Unfortunately there's no workaround for this.

How can I populate and unordered list from an sql table

Instead of hardcoding a static menu using an unordered list, I would like to populate it from a table
(just two fields, MenuID,MenuDesc) so that the menu can grow or shrink depending on what is in the table.
Tried googling this but cannot make head or tail of php server side recursive scripts, datareaders etc
Couild some kind person just spell it out for me:
<ul>
     <li>Form.MenuDesc<li>
     <li>Form.MenuDesc<li>
     <li>Form.MenuDesc<li>
      etc
<ul>
many thanks

Hi Adam,
Many thanks indeed for taking the trouble to respond.
As you probably know, I'm a self taught amateur, so I need things spelled out.
Presumably, you mean something like
<CFQuery datasource"xxx" name="GetMenuData">
      select MenuDesc from Menus
</CFQuery>
<CFOutput>
      <ul id="MenuBar">
            <CFLoop query="GetMenuData">
                  <li>#GetMenuData.Menudesc#</li>
            </CFLoop>
      </ul>
</CFOutput>
Seems a bit too simple...
(My replies from Outlook did not contain the actual code (bizarre)

WM BIN to BIN transfer order and picking list

Hi Guys
I have a scenario where I need to print BIN to BIN transfers details
After completing the transfer to destination BIN Ineed to print
Which Interim storage type(Like 9 sereis 901----999) I need to link print code and printer
what config settings required for this
and also another similar scenario
Picking list from warehouse against the sales order
which interim storage type we need to link the printer
we have already satnadalone storage types availble(100,120,1....)
Kindly suggest a solution ,thanks in advance

Dear Friend,
Print determination is WM is done in transaction OMLV. Major steps include
1. Define spool request.--> Here you define spools and how it should be configured like new spool request, delete after spool out put.
2.Definition of Print code--> Here you assign form to each print code
3. Assign Print code to movement type--> For each mvt type assign print code. In automatic determination of printer, system checks whether any print code is assigned to each mvt type in a warehouse.
4.Assign Printer to Warehouse--> Once form and other information is determined in above steps, system checks for printer for a warehouse in this configuration.If no printer is assigned, then it will proceed to next step that is step 5 here below
5.Assign printer to picking area--> Assignment of printer to picking area.If this paramter is not maintained then it will go to next step. That is step 6 here
6.Assign printer to Storage type--> It will fetch printer if nothing is mentioned in step 4 & 5 above.
7.Print Report--> Assign print program to ware house. This the last step in config.
I hope this helps.

JTextPane ordered-list, unordered-list

Hi
I am using RTFEditorKit and want to implement " ordered-list, unordered-list " in a JTextPane. Does anyone has some solution to this?
Thanx

Start a new, blank HTML page. Put your lists on it. Are they
behaving as
expected? If so, and I suspect that it's so, then it's
something else on
your original page. Can we see it?

Displaying a nested unordered list

I have a Flash page that goes out and reads an XML file, then displays the information in it. Most of the time, it works great. However, when it comes to nested lists, it doesn't work. I am using CDATA so that I can use HTML code to display the information as intended. But Flash absolutely refuses to display a nested list correctly. For example, if I put in there <ul><li>item 1 <ul><li>subbullet 1</li><li>subbullet 2</li></ul></li></ul>, it displays everything as if I had made each of them individual list items under one master <ul></ul>.
There's got to be a way to get Flash to understand and display a nested list. It's a simple thing to do, I know it. I just can't figure it out. Does anyone else know?

As found on the flex community blog: (http://blog.flexcommunity.net/?p=38)
"Ordered and unordered lists (<ol> and <ul> tags) are not recognized by Flash Player, so they do not modify how your list is rendered. All list items use bullets."
This means that you will need to do that formatting yourself to get it to look correct. Take a look at the textformat tag that Flash uses, which will allow you to play around with the padding to get the effect you want.

List View Threshold and using OR in list view

I've read the white papers, searched the blogs, but I don't quite understand why I am getting the 'only showing latest results...' yellow bar due to list threhshold with following scenario:
List has 9000 items (so above threshold).
ALL 4 columns below are indexed!
I have a view called 'My Items' such that:
Show all items when
UserColumn1 = [Me] OR
UserColumn2 = [Me] OR
UserColumn3 = [Me] OR
UserColumn4 = [Me]
All of the 4 user columns are indexed, but I'm thinking that since I have OR's in they query vs ANDs that it is causing the view to trip up and display the 'only giving you recent...' yellow filter bar.
Any thoughts?
Am i correct in my thinking that because of the OR's, SharePoint has to go back to the database and pull data 4 times.
There are only 20 items where UserColumn1 is me, 10 where UserColumn2 is me, and 3 where UserColumn3 is me and only 1 item where UserColumn4 is me, so there are only total of 34 items, so I know its not because the first indexed column is returning more
than 5000 items.
Any advice/links to using 'OR' in view is much appreciated, I couldn't find anything.
Herschel

The problem is the "or" and the list view threshold. When using an OR the query has to retrieve ALL the items to make sure it gets all the Or clauses. Once it has all the items then it filters based on the "or". If you
use an"and" you can be sure that all the results will be represented by the result set that is derived from the first column. So the query can be limited to that and then trimmed of additional results after retrieval. When using Ors there
is no way to limit the query Set. What you want it to do is limit the results to 4 query sets that it then combines. It doesn't work that way. When using 'or' you will always try to retrieve ALL the results whether the columns are indexed
or not.

Printing Order acknowledgement and pick list

SAP 2007 A
Please follow scenario:
Create sales order with 3 line items. If we print order acknowledgement only display is correct. If we print either the pick list only or the order and pick list combination we sometimes see the three items repeated on the pick list and sales order prints fine. This only occasionally happens and we cannot see any pattern as to why it happens. Anyone ever experience this and/or have a suggestions as to what may be causing the problem

What is your PL? It sounds like a bug to me.
Thanks,
Gordon
