Paragraph Formatting in Tables - RH8 for HTML

In working with paragraph formatting in tables, I find that whatever I set the Table Properties to be in terms of Flush Left, Centered, or Flush Right, that formatting is assigned to every paragraph within the table.
So if I want to center the table on the page, then the text within every cell is also centered.
Is this common to others? What's the solution?

Cracked it.
I found different results with different browsers.
IE8 and Opera = Text is centred in output
FF and Chrome = Text is left aligned.
That meant it had to be a browser issue so what could be different? The way they handle XHTML. Go to Tools > Options and tick Convert RH edited topics to HTML.
The first test is that Preview will now display the text left aligned. Then generate an output and test in any browser, it should now be OK.

Launch Approval Appraisal Documents in Iview format not SAP GUI for HTML

Hi,
Sorry iam not sure whether this is the right place to post this question.
I have a requirement where i need to change the appearance of UWL tasks related to appraisal approval.
Whenever a user clicks on approve apraisal tasks it is popping SAP GUI for HTML and taking to the backend showing Performance appraisal display.Our client are in need of normal iview rather than sap view( sap gui view).
I have identified the tasks related to approval appraisal.The tasks in the backend are
approval appraisal - perf appraisal - ts91000005, URL generation - ts12300108 , Submitted obj - WS 91000003.
i have created an iview based on http://xxx.xxxx:8000/sap/bc/bsp/sap/hap_document/documents_todo.htm?sap-client=xxx&sap-user=xxxx&sap-language=E
i have given the ID and iview PCD link in SWFVISU.Reregistered UWL again and logged in as a test user.When clicked on Appraisal approval i can see the appraisals completed.It wont allow us to edit.All hap_documents are BSP pages.
I guess i did something wrong.
i have followed these links.
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPHCM/PMSworkflowsin+UWL
Error: Launch appraisal Workitems in UWL in Portal...
Appraisal approval after completion not possible in BSP
Please let me know the procedure to show the approval items in a normal iview format.
Thanks in advance.
Chakri.

Chakri,
You will probably have to change the XML being used in your UWL. Go into the ItemType portion for the PM task and check/set the following properties
connector="WebFlowConnector"
defaultAction="launchIView"
Check if your Action tags within the ItemTypes have the following properties
name="launchIView" handler="SAPAppLauncher"
Check whether the Property within Action tags is linked to your BSP view that you want to trigger when the task is clicked
For e.g. <Property name="SAPIntegrator" value="ROLES://portal_content/com.sap.pct/line_manager/com.sap.pct.erp.mss.bp_folder/com.sap.pct.erp.mss.pages/....."/>
Once you change your XML dont forget to re-register your ItemTypes to the connector you are using.
Good luck

You can use HTTP Receiver to pass the data to the servlet that runs on the HTTP Server. The servlet has already screen design logic written in HTML or jsp to display in HTML Table or so. PI requires to just post data on the servlet of HTTP Server using HTTP Receiver. PI will not create screen look and feel logic while posting data.

RH8 for HTML: Problem with Multilevel List in published topic(s)

I have discovered that working with the multilevel list and reapplying it (changing a level 2 to a level 1, for example) inserts numerous tags that don't show up in RH design view nor in an IE view of the published content, but the published help renders badly in Firefox (like a "justified" paragraph style that inserts broad spacing between words).
The bad thing is that broad spacing is added to a command where no spaces should be, which looks fine in IE, but renders like this in Firefox:
sqlplus XBRLDB/[email protected]:1521/ubmatrix
@C:\xbrl_database\database\Oracle\ verify_registration _v1_0 _1 .sql
The "source" for published content looks like this:
sqlplus XBRLDB/[email protected]:1521/ubmatrix
@C:\xbrl_database\database\Oracle\verify_registration
_v1_0_1
.sql
How do I prevent the tags from getting added to the RH project files? How do I remove them using the RH interface?
Why are they getting added in such wierd places?
PS: I have kept the paragraph style Numlist (which is how I define numbered procedures). I just apply the multilevel list to paragraphs tagged with this style. It's been working OK, except for the newly discovered problem above.
I'm using Verdana family and the numbers look good. I've only looked at the published HTML which looks like this: I
1 Do this
looks like this in a broser view:
1 Do this
Is this the 'expected' HTML code for numbered procedures (all this to precede a paragraph with a number), or is there a more efficient way to render numbered/mutilevel lists?

Hi there
I just created a small video that may be helpful for this.
Cheers... Rick

Best table format for html?

I see that after I convert my FM doc to Online Help (via webworks), the tables do not expand in the output the way the text does. Is there a specific table format that works best for conversion to html?
Regards,
Bill

Bill,
in FrameMaker you design each table to have certain column widths because you are limited by the size of your page (and the paper).
HTML browsers have more freedom unless they are explicitly instructed to create certain column widths. The basic rule for HTMl tables (and there is only a single table "format" in HTML) are those:
Check each column for its minimum width, specified by a graphic or a very long unhyphenated word.
Look in each column for the longest content. i.e. as if multi-line content would be written in a single line (attention: tags force line breaks)
If all columns expanded to hold the longest content fit inside the browser window: scale them accordingly: This may result in tables which are smaller than in print, because they contain only very short texts
If the columns do not fit the current browser width, scale them down to fit the browser width, but only as far as the minimum width.
If the sum of minimum widths is wider than the browser window: create a horizontal scrollbar.
Of course, using CSS instruction like {width: 12em;} one can force certain column width independent from content, but this is usually not the default.
If you want all your tables to always span the full width of the browser window, you have to add the following to your CSS (maybe via the Webworks UI):
table { width: 100%; }

What table stores the SAPscript paragraph formats for a form.

Does anyone know where the paragraph formats are stored for a SAPscript form. I can view them using SE71, but what I am looking for is the table where all this information is stored.
Thanks.
Bill Lomeli

Hi Bill,
Check table "DOKHL" .
ID = 'DE' (Paragraph ID)
LANGU = SY-LANGU
OBJECT = 'TDPARAGRAPH'.
TYP = 'E'.
*------Sample code -
      SELECT SINGLE *
        FROM DOKHL
        WHERE LANGU      = LANGU
        AND   ID         = ID    "Paragraph ID"
        AND   OBJECT     = OBJECT      "value :TDPARAGRAPH"
        AND   TYP        = TYP        'value :E'.

Delete paragraph format once for a whole book

Hello,
I want to delete a paragraph format at one place/one time in a book for every file in this book.
Is that possible?
Kind regards
Nina

You might want to try Paragraph Tools -- A plug-in for FrameMaker.
With it, you can create a list of all paragraph tags in use for the book. You can delete the tag or tags you don't want. Then you can run the "Remove non-list tags" routine. All the tags still in the list are kept. Any others will be removed from your documents. The whole process should take less than 10 minutes, even if the book is enormous.

Table where Sap-Script Paragraph formats are stored

hey ABAP,
does anyone know the table where the Paragraph formats are stored?
Problem: we have a Form with 740 Paragraph formats, they all are of font-type courier, and now need to be either blank or Helve.
and well i simply dont want to change 740 paragraph formats manually.
thx for any ideas, hints

arrrgh ok i´m trying to clarify my situation.
I already know how to create and edit paragraph formats in SE71.
Those 740 Paragraph formats have been created by myself.
But now i need to make a change of the Font type to all of them.
you sureley can imagine that i dont want to edit 740 paragraph formats manually piece by piece.
thats why i was asking for a table where they are stored, so i can write a small report which changes that one field for me in ALL my pareagraph formats.

For SAPscript INCLUDE TEXT, how to align as Paragraph format

Hi experts and ABAP colleagues!
Need your help on this sapscript problem:
How to align texts taken from "INCLUDE TEXT" in SAPscript, according to tab defined in Paragraph Format?
For example, I defined BG to have tabstop at the 2nd column (or equivalent to 1st tab position) where I need to print the text, and then declared it in SE71 like below:
However the text prints at the leftmost instead of at the 2nd col position - (8th char tab defined in par. format BG). Hence it is not aligned to its proper heading. Line Number instead of Description - which is not okay for client view that needs these Thai texts.
The technical details I included below. Kindly examine:
1.) Window >Main > Text Element > Include Text command
/E   ITEM_TEXT
BG   ,,&TTXIT-TDTEXT&
/:   INCLUDE &T166P-TXNAM& OBJECT &T166P-TDOBJECT& ID &T166P-TDID&
/:   NEW-PARAGRAPH BG
Note: I used command "NEW-PARAGRAPH" and had exactly the above code in se71. Anything missed here? Pls. help. Thanks.
#2.) Paragraph Format > Tab
No. -
Tab Position -
Alignment
1            8,00 CH            LEFT
2            28,00 CH          CENTER
etc.
Note:   and then i put in ",,&TTXIT-TDTEXT&" (see above) with the 2 comma's beforehand to say that its on the 1st tab or at the 8th character where it should be printed, but does not give intended result... pls help.
#3.) Paragraph Formats > Standard Attributes
Left Margin - 0 cm
Alignment - Left
no blank lines checkbox - ticked
Note: Is there any more attribute i can manipulate from here to force display at the right position?
Thank you so much in advance for all your help. Our project team will really appreciate it. May the Lord bless you as we go through our SAP work!
Sincerely,
Celeste

Here's a thought, instead of using tabs, try writing a method that takes a string that is the starting string, a pad character, and a length and returns a string padded to that length with the specified character.
public String padR(String src, String padChar, int len)
    // ... You get to fill in the rest suggestion try to do it without a loop
}Have fun,
PS.

TAB in paragraph format for Script

hi,
i am doubt with the tabs for paragraph format in the script. how actually it work? i try to make change on the tab, but some time even i put a larger value, the space in the output will become smaller, can anyone explain to me how the tab actually work?
thanks

Thanks you very much.
but one more question, let say, if i have 3 tabs for an output.
HARLO,,MY,,WORLD,,!
any i configure the tabs as, 20, 30,15 all in CH
so after the "HARLO, it will have 20 CH of spacing, follow by "MY", 30 spacing, and 'MY" 15 spacing, end with "!"?
it this the way it works?
or it works in accumulate way, which include the text display as well?
i found in the forum, say that, it will fix the length of a field( if i display a field), even there is no any value in that field. so how does it work on this?
alot of question very thansk for the temper.

Using paragraph format for long text...

Hello,
When I try to print the long text using include then
it starts printing from the very first line.
But I want to use some paragraph format for it. How can I use it because I am using
/: INCLUDE '200007200000100' OBJECT AUFK ID KOPF
So where do I mention the paragraph format in the tag column becaue I am already using /: controll command in font of the include ?

Check this thread...
SAPScript - Standard Text
It looks like the PARAGRAPH P2 statement can do that declaration, on the subsequent line.
This website also has some good examples:

Paragraph Format for Notes, Tips & Warnings With Graphics

I have been reading Publishing Fundamentals and it says you can create a paragraph format that uses the Frame Above Pgf & Below Pgf and Graphics Frames to create a Paragraph Style for Notes, Tips, Warnings, etc. that includes lines above and below and a graphic to the side.
I am attaching a FrameMaker file that shows what I have been able to accomplish and also shows what I really want. To look at this file, save it and rename, dropping ".text" from the file name.
I am using FrameMaker Version 8.0p277 (the Technical Communications Suite version). My colleagues all have FrameMaker 8 (not the Tech Comm Suite version) and I need to share my template with them.
I appreciate any and all suggestions,
Cheryl

Use two different paragraph formats for one element

Hi,
I think this is really simple, but I don't get it.
I have an element with the name "Step" and I have two paragraph formats for this element. Both for numbering. I use one of these formats to set the numbering back to one, so I can start with number 1 anywhere I want, so I think there is noch real context rule for this case. How do I declare this in my EDD? Is it possible to say my EDD that it is possible to use both.
Thanks.

Dokuteam,
In most cases I have seen context rules using the sibling indicator { first } to handle the start of numbering.
If you want to be able to control restarting of the numbering anywhere, you can add an attribute to the element, like restart = yes | no with "no" being the default value. Then your context rule would use an attribute indicator similar to
If [restart = "yes"]
use PgfFmt1
Else
use PgfFmt2
