Personalization-Set Portal Theme dropdown list

Hi SAP Experts,
I have Assigned a personalize role which consists of Portal Theme page.
I have to add a List of customized themes in the "Set Portal Theme dropdown list".
Currently only one theme is getting displyed (one which is currently assigned to the user).
Please provide me with the steps of how to achieve the same.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Disha.

Thank you Prashant and Ameya for your quick reply.
Dear Ameya...I tried the steps mentioned by you but only the default theme is getting displayed.
The scenario here is that there are 15 users.
I have assigned a customised theme to all of them.
The client wants a list of different themes to be displayed in the Dropdown list.
When the user selects a theme from the list of different themes in the dropdown, will the theme be assigned to the user automatically?? for example how it happens in Gmail, yahoo,etc.
If not then please guide me in the same.
Awaiting your response.
Thanks in Advance,
Disha.

  • How to set Portal Theme for WDA iView different from user's Theme

    Hi Experts!
    I have dual-stack system: ABAP server + Java. I have WDA application in ABAP server and I deployed it to NW Portal via iView (using template).
    There are two themes customized:
    1:  Standard - to be used for all iviews except WDA iviews. This theme is set as default for user.
    2.: WDA theme - to be used for some WDA iviews IRRESPECTIVELY what them is set in personalization settings of the user.
    So my question is:
    Can I somehow set the Portal Theme to be used for specific iView no matter what Theme user has selected in his personalization?
    Or if its not possible, can I set some specific Theme for WDA application?
    So taks is to overcome settings for default portal theme for user and replace it with different theme. Is this possible?
    Thanks in advance.

    Are you using an LDAP as your UME, or are the user records from from R/3 ?
    Apparently  (Ive never done it) you used to be able to force a default language by editing this file (back in the EP5 days):
    <J2EE root>\WEB-INF\portal\system\properties\prtDefault.properties
    Look at the following lines :
    This is the default language to be used when none is specified
    request.defaultlanguage=en
    request.defaultcountry=us
    If you prefer to have the same language for all users no matter their user locale, change the lines to this :
    This is the default language to be used when none is specified
    request.mandatorylanguage=en
    request.mandatorycountry=us
    I hope this works out for you

  • Set default "Dropdown Lists" to "By value"

    Hi ,
    In the WebUI under Personalize / Personalize Settings , the user can setup the parameter "Dropdown Lists" to be "By value".
    We want to setup that at the system level , so every connection to the WebUI will have the Sort in the Dropdown Lists by value . How can we do that ? Nothing seems to be in IMG , maybe that a parameters in a SYSTEM file ? Thank you

    Hi Julie and happy HannuChristmaKwanzaYule to you!
    There is only one place I'm aware of that any slide timing
    default may be set. In Captivate 2, you look at Project >
    Preferences... > Defaults tab.
    In Captivate 3, you look at Edit > Preferences... >
    Project node.
    In both places you will find a place to configure the default
    slide time. This has no effect on any existing slides and I don't
    believe it will factor into the mix when recording. Also it would
    appear the minimum limit is one second. The only places this seems
    to take effect are when inserting Blank slides and when creating a
    Blank project.
    Hopefully this helps a smidge! Rick

  • DropDown list appl  is not working when integrated into Portal

    Hi all,
    In my WebDynpro appl, I have a dropdown list.Which sends data to backend(R/3). This appl is working fine, when it is integrtaed into portal, even before i select from dropdown am getting <b>Access Denied error</b>.
    Help me.
    Thanks a lot.

    Sounds like a PCD Permissions issue. Try assigning Read Access permissions to Everyone group for the following items:
    1) the Folder containing the iView and/or
    2) the application itself
    Read about how to assign permissions using the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/f6/2604db05fd11d7b84200047582c9f7/frameset.htm">Permissions Editor</a>

  • How to set a default value in dropdown list in Wendynpro ABAP? Help!

    Hi Experts,
           I have Webdynpro for ABAP application that shows a DropdownwithKey UI element.
    1. I am able to populate the dropdown list. But by default the list is not showing any value. Only when I select a value from the list then it shows it.
    So how to set the default value to the first value in the list? Any code sample will be really helpfull.
    I have written the following code:
    method WDDOINIT .
      DATA:
        node_category TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info.
      node_category = WD_CONTEXT->GET_NODE_INFO( ).
      node_category = node_category->GET_CHILD_NODE( 'CATEGORY' ).
      data:    LT_VALUESET type WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE_LIST,
               L_VALUE type WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE.
    L_VALUE-VALUE      = 'V1'.
    L_VALUE-TEXT    = 'yesterday'.
    INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
    L_VALUE-VALUE      = 'V2'.
    L_VALUE-TEXT    = 'today'.
    INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
    L_VALUE-VALUE      = 'V3'.
    L_VALUE-TEXT    = 'tomorrow'.
    INSERT L_VALUE into table LT_VALUESET.
    node_category->SET_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE_SET(
                 NAME = 'CAT_VALUE'
                 VALUE_SET = LT_VALUESET ).
    endmethod.
    Note that: I am using webdynpro for ABAP.
    Thanks
    Gopal

    I am not sure how it works in Web Dynpro for ABAP, but in Web Dynpro for Java to set default drop down value you will have to set the value for particular attribute (which is linked to the dropdown element)  in the context
    like
    wdContext.currentContext<nodeName>Element.set<FieldName>(<defalut value>)
    This generally done in Initialization method of the controller.

  • How to set Dropdown list in tablen whith others Dropdown values in each row

    how to set Dropdown list in tablen whith others Dropdown values in each row of the table

    hi ,
    You have to add the parent element before adding data to the child node ...you follow the below steps it will work
    1) Take ContextStructure as follows ...
    tabledata (valuenode)
        ddownbyindex( value node) --within the tabledata node
             value (attribute)
    2)Binding to your layout
      tabledata (node) ---bind this to the dataSource property of your  table
          ddownbyindex( node)
                Value (attribute)--bind to the texts property of you DDbyIndex
    3)In wdinit() method add the following code
         IPrivate<Your view name>.ITabledataElement tabledataElement =wdContext.createTabledataElement();
        wdContext.nodeTabledata().addElement(tabledataElement);
        for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
         IPrivate<Your viewname>.IDdownbyindexElement ddbyindexElement=wdContext.createDdownbyindexElement();
             ddbyindexElement.setValue("Value"+i);
             wdContext.nodeDdownbyindex().addElement(ddbyindexElement);
    And set the cardinality property of the table node as 0..n
    and dropdownbyinex node to 1..n
    You try it ...

    I get the dropdowns on hover but they do not inherit the look and feel of the portal. Instead of inheriting the theme of the portal, it is just displayede as plain html links.
    I would like these dropdowns to inherit the same theming as the portal.
    Can anybody help me on how to do this?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    If you want to inherit from the Portal theme, check the CSS classes that are used and try applying them to the suckerfish elements.
    I guess you use the Navigation Taglibs, so you may end up using anchorAttributes.
    --> check the SAP Help Portal for details about navigational tag libs

    The kind of CSS classes you are looking for : .prtlTopNavLnk prtlTopNav1stLvl-i prtlTopNavContainer
    Hope your are familiar with CSS, otherwise it is going painful...
    A really powerful tool for this is Firefox + Firebug + Web Developer.
    Best regards,

  • When bookmarking a page, I can't get the complete list of bookmark folders to dropdown in order to select any folder in which to bookmark page. What do you set to get whole list of folders in Bookmarks to drop down?

    When bookmarking a page, I can't get the complete list of bookmark folders to drop down in order to select any folder in which to bookmark page. The 'Folder:' bar has 'Bookmarks Menu' showing. The arrow on the bar drops down 5 recent folders to which pages have been saved, but the pop down arrow to the right of the bar just opens to show the three categories and 'New Folder' button. What do you set to get whole list of folders in Bookmarks to drop down?

    To all, embarrassingly enough, I have discovered that I didn't know how to expand the three categories including 'Bookmarks Menu' in the 'Bookmark This Page' pop up interface. It was expanded by default on the initial Firefox opening and first page bookmark attempt. Next use it only showed categories. I clicked and double clicked the 'Bookmarks Menu' line, but failed to see the small, shaded triangle used to expand/collapse list. If it appears collapsed, just tap triangle at left of line to see all folders. It seems to open the same way after I do it for first time. Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for all the attempts to help.

  • Trees and Unmanaged Dropdown Lists

    Does anybody know if it's possible to create heirarchical property value lists? For example, we want to have a keyword system for documents and users with some top-level categories and then some more specific categories under them, and not just one long unorganized list. Is this possible to do using trees and/or unmanaged dropdown lists? I'm not sure how to make these. Do you have to insert a table into SQL server somewhere?

    Yes, you can do this.  I don't have the benefit of access to my database from where I am at the moment, so please pardon me if I get some of this wrong.
    * There's a sample table in your primary portal database called something like &#034;samplepicklist&#034; - that will show you the data structure
    * You create a tree property
    * Bind that property to the table...
    In my case I'm using it to provide a region/country hierarchy list for user info.
    1) Property is named &#034;Country (by Region)&#034;
    2) Set values to...
            - Property is visible in the UI (checked)
            - Searchable (checked)
            - Type is &#034;Tree&#034; (when you select this the screen will change)
    3) got a view together - view is called &#034;vw_PTProfile_RegionCountries&#034;.  Set the Database Table Name setting to the name of your view or table.
    4) Provide your hierarchy info.  There are two bits - display/storage value name and ordering key.  In my case my values look like...
        PICK COLUMN                        SORT ORDER
        rgn_descr                              rgn_id
        country_descr                        country_id
    Blammo - done.  I now have a hierarchical region/country list.
    NOTES:
    * I'd suggest using a view so you can link to other data sources, etc. and not worry as much about shaping the data the way the portal needs it
    * The property works on most classes of objects EXCEPT documents.  This isn't an issue with the property as much as the document property editing approach (&#034;documents are special objects&#034;)
    That help?
    I love these kinds of things and want to make best use of them myself, so if anyone has any ideas on how to kick the portal into overdrive using properties (or sees that I'm mis-using this approach or steered Dave in the wrong direction) please, please do respond to this thread.
    Thanks,
    Eric

  • Customizing MSS reporting selection period dropdown list

    We have diffrent ABAP programs that uses the PNP logical database and we want to customize the period selection dropdown list on the MSS reporting iview. In same scenarios we want to display only 'Today'. In these scenarios we use the report together with a variant.
    When the user execute the report, the selection period on the variant is used and that is 100% correct. The problem is that the user change the selection period on the frontend (on the Iview) and this is not what is reflected on the output of the report, becasue the report uses a variant.
    Therefore we want to customize the period selection dropdown list on the Iviewin the scenarios where a report uses a variant.
    I know that we cannot customize the perido selction on the Iview, beacue we cannot set the properties on the Iview.
    Is anybody familiar with how we can accomplish this.
    Regards

    Hi Darren,
    We do have a property in the iview for which you can set the period. You need to know the name of the property. Give us the iview name so that we can have a look.

  • Dropdown list to change image field linked image?

    Hello,
    I am quite new in Designer but I have to complete a job and I don't find the solution.
    I try to update on a form an image field using the value of a dropdown box and a "if" script.
    I use linked images (not embedded ones) and try using a script calling the image Field. value. image. href  property.
    The property is well updated as export to xml displays well the new href value but the image is not displayed as something was missing to activate it.
    form1.#subform[0].ImageField1::calculate - (FormCalc, client)
    if (UN_DropDownList == "3373") then ImageField1.value.image.href = ".\Images\UN3373.png"
    endif
    Rather simple (don't laugh at it) but it doesn't work.
    I found solutions for embedded images via visible/hidden by dropdown list (not yet tested) as these ones. I give them below for reference (if some other users are interested)
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/683215
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2187604
    http://acrobat.timhuff.net/?p=5
    But not for linked images (path or URL). By the way, I found same problem descriptions in other forums but without any proposed solution.
    As I should have quite a lot of images with frequent updates, it seems to me a better solutions...
    Thanks in advance for you help.
    Kind regards
    Philippe

    Hi Philippe,
    Have a look at this blog, http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/2009/11/linked_vs_embedded_template_im.html, it turns out that both linked and embedded images are stored in the PDF but just in different ways. So updating the href at run time will have no effect.
    If you are not in a possition to store all the images in the PDF at design time then you might have to look at setting up a webservice to access them on a server.
    Good luck
