Popup from ALV for displaying full text = problems!!!

Dear all,
I created an ALV to display data. In this ALV, I have a text column, which just show FIRST 30 characters of the original text.
Now I want to double click on that field, and it will pop up a small window to show full text (the original text, unknown length).
I made lots of references and I decided to use FM POPUP_WITH_TABLE because of some reasons:
a) the original text is retrieved from another FM READ_TEXT. After the call of READ_TEXT, the text will be stored into an internal table. Then, it can be passed to POPUP_WITH_TABLE without more modification.
b) POPUP_WITH_TABLE can show the text more meaningfully. I mean, if the length of the text is greater than the length of the popup window, it automatically break the line and displays the rest in the next line. ( FM POPUP_TO_INFORM does NOT do that.)
However, I've faced some PROBLEMS with FM POPUP_WITH_TABLE
1) The popup window has 2 button OK and Cancel. Is there any way just to display Cancel button?
2) If I click on Cancel or OK without choose any line on the popup window => It will raise an exception, called BREAK_OFF. In this case
If the clicked button is CANCEL => it will close the popup
If the clicked button is OK => nothing happens. And I must click on CANCEL to close the popup.
I want to close the popup windown without raising any exceptions. How can I ?
3) When I enter many complex selection criteria on Selection Screen to limit the result, displaying ALV is good. But when I click on the text field to popup => the report cannot be manipulated. I have to kill the session in SM04.
What's wrong? (because for single selection criteria, it works well.)
Every body has any suggestions?
Thank you in advance

I solved it. I just use another list for pop-up event.
Although it worked well now, I thought it was not a good solution.
Thank you all of you.
Best regards.

Bex report doesn't display full text information......

Hi Experts,
My bex report is not displaying full text information.
I have set that particular infoobject length as 40 and also have selected long text and Long Description in Bex Tab of the InfoObject.
In my DSO the data is available in complete lenght but in my Bex report it just displays half information
Instead of displaying Service Order Released its displays Service Order Rel
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue please.
Thanks

Hello,
Setting up the BEx Property for Object, is not sufficient enough to display in the query output. You can always overwrite the object level settings in the query designing.
Moreover, when you create a query, system always overwrite your object level settings and apply the query level settings.
Make sure, you have selected Long Text in the query for that characteristic.

above text i want to display on selection screen.

please try to solve this
thanking in advance

Hi Raj,
Check this..
SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT fmt name.
Additions
1. ... FOR TABLE dbtab
2. ... FOR FIELD f
3. ... MODIF ID mod
4. ... ID id
Effect
Generates a comment on the selection screen. For the name name , there are two options:
name takes the form TEXT-xxx where xxx is a three-character name for a text symbol. In this case, the contents of the text symbol are displayed at runtime, i.e. the text cannot be changed dynamically. name is another eight-character name. Here, you create a field with the name name in the length specified in the format fmt< /> and it is then generated as an output field on the selection screen. The contents of these comments must therefore be set at runtime (e.g. at INITIALIZATION or - in the case of comments in the database include program DBldbSEL - in the routine INIT of the database program SAPDBldb . They can also be changed when the selection screen is being processed.
Note
The field name is generated automatically and so cannot be defined with DATA .
With comments, you must always specify a format fmt (see variant ULINE ).
Note
You must program a new line yourself via the format fmt .
Example
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.
SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 10(20) TEXT-001
FOR FIELD PARM.
SELECTION-SCREEN POSITION POS_LOW.
PARAMETERS PARM LIKE SAPLANE-PLANETYPE.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.
This code displays a 20-byte long comment followed by the parameter at the normal position ( POS_LOW ) on the same line. If the user presses F1 for both objects, the documentation of SAPLANE-PLANETYPE is displayed.

Raj

How to retrieve name4 data from backend for display on View Ship-to Address

Hi Everyone,
I need your advise / help:
I added name4 in shiptodetails1.jsp for new ship-to address when ordering. This name4 can be entered, saved to backend and display before submit rder. but when dispaly the created order, the name4 data is not shown on View Ship-to party Address page. Seems address.getName4() is not enough, I need to modify some method to retrieve the data from backend address object. Can anyone guide me what and how to enhance forretrieving name4 data from backend, so it can display on View Ship-to Address?
Any advises / suggestions?
Thanks, Jin

Hi Jin,
I hope you already found the solution but here some more detail.
I am working on ISA with ECC so I do not have an access to CRM system.
As you are facing problem to retrieve data from back-end while displaying it on order status page you can debug code of class DetailStrategyR3.class.
There is a method fillDocument this method call RFC BAPI_ISAORDER_GETDETAILEDLIST. This RFC actually read Order related data from backend and fill the SalesDocument object. Method fillDocument also call other methods like fillShipTo.
During debug in NWDS you can see address data and check the values of Address object. If Name3 or Name4 and nickName contains no value then you can't get it on JSP page because it is not coming from the RFC.
So I suggest you should first check DetailStrategyR3.class as it is preparing Document for display purpose. When you open any order on orderstatusdetail page this class comes in Action and prepare SalesDocumet with all necessary information including Ship to Address of that order. So If here you do not get value in Name3, Name4 or Nickname then you have to do some custom development
Check Below code while debug in NWDS.
//fill ship-to information on header and item level
        fillShipTo(document,
                   partnerTable,
                   getDetailedList.getTableParameterList().getTable(
                           "ORDER_ADDRESS_OUT"),
                   connection);
        ShipToData shipTo = document.getHeaderData().getShipToData();
        orderHeader.setShipToData(shipTo);
Check shipTo object in "Variable" window while debugging. Here you will get address object and can see all the variable value like FirstName, LastName, Name1, NAme2, Name3...NickName etc..... If no value in Name3, Name4 then you will not get on Page.
I hope this will help you to understand why Name3-Name4-Nickname does not have a Value though you have provided while creating an order.
Thanks and Regards.

How to read green light from ALV list display during BDC

Hi,
I am currently writing a BDC on CK11 transaction, after the user enters all the data he has to check log for any errors. The log is shown using ALV LIST DISPLAY and the errors are identified by RED lights on ALV LIST DISPLAY. At this point in BDC i have to either save or exit depending the status lights shown on the screen.
Does anybody has any idea on how to read these lights from the screen ?
thanks
Udai

Hi,
I agree with Rich here. Never seen this done before (and I'm pretty sure you can't do it), but if someone has a funky way of doing it please share!
Cheers,

Display uneditable text problem

How to display uneditable text within a border without showing a cursor?
Thank you!

Have you tried using a StringItem? It's like a TextField, but then its contents is uneditable. Should work I guess. You can configure an lcdui.Item with appearance mode. Item.BUTTON can be used for visualising the lcdui.Item object -- in this case a StringItem -- like a genuine (but non-clickable) button. Try it and decide whether it solves your problem.
Good luck!
Cheers,
Jasper

Size & Quality - Exporting Pix from iPhoto for Display and Printing?

I would like to export pictures from iPhoto for use in PowerPoint.
If the pictures are in 4x3 format, exporting them using the "Custom" size option and specifying 1024 as the maximum pixels results in nice 1024 x 768 photos that fill the screen on most projectors. This is good.
The exported photos are also at 72 pixels/inch. This is OK for onscreen display, but not so good for printing.
Oddly, the results are the SAME (1024 x 768, 72 pixels/inch) whether one specifies Low, Med, High or Max quality in the iPhoto export panel -- though the file sizes ARE different (higher quality = larger sizes). (I used Photoshop Elements to identify the sizes of the exported photos).
What gives? I would have thought higher quality files would have been associated with higher resolution (more pixels/inch) but this doesn't seem to be the case, and I don't understand why the file sizes are larger.
Can someone recommend a way to export a batch of photos from iPhoto at a specific size (1024 x 768) and perhaps 300 pixels/inch) that I might use in PowerPoint for both display and printing? And perhaps explain the bloated file sizes with no apparent quality increase?
Many thanks!

Welcome to the Apple user to user assistance forums
If the pictures are in 4x3 format, exporting them using the "Custom" size option and specifying 1024 as the maximum pixels results in nice 1024 x 768 photos that fill the screen on most projectors. This is good.

DPI is meaningless for a digital photo until you display it - Dots Per Inch are just a meaningless number - the displayed DPI is the size of the photo in dots (pixels) divided by the inches of the display measures in inches - the DPI setting in the photo means nothing - see The Myth of DPI for a longer discussion on this.
Oddly, the results are the SAME (1024 x 768, 72 pixels/inch) whether one specifies Low, Med, High or Max quality in the iPhoto export panel -- though the file sizes ARE different (higher quality = larger sizes). (I used Photoshop Elements to identify the sizes of the exported photos).
What's odd? you said export with the largest dimension 1024 - that occurred just as you specified - what would be odd would be that the export were different form your specification
What gives? I would have thought higher quality files would have been associated with higher resolution (more pixels/inch) but this doesn't seem to be the case, and I don't understand why the file sizes are larger.
Higher quality means less compression (and therefore larger file size) - it does not mean a difference in compression - JPEGs have a compression from 1 to 12 available - iPhoto does 4 steps - small, medium, large and highest. I've not see the compression documented but I think of it as like 3, 6, 9 and 12
Can someone recommend a way to export a batch of photos from iPhoto at a specific size (1024 x 768) and perhaps 300 pixels/inch) that I might use in PowerPoint for both display and printing? And perhaps explain the bloated file sizes with no apparent quality increase?
Forget the DPI - just be sure the pixel sizes are correct - for printing you should have at least 150 dpi and 300 dpi is better - so at 150 DPI printing your 1024x768 photo can be printed at 6.8" x 5.12 " -- at 300 dpi it would only 3.4" x 2.55"

'Preparing Video for Display' causing render problems

I have a DV-Pal sequence, with a few crops, burn effects and transition, so I've got a lock and render everything, but every time I do about 3 mins later a dialogue box pops up stating 'Preparing Video for Display' with a little percentage bar. Once it's 'Prepared Video for Display' (whatever that means??) all my rendered effects revert back to an unrendered state.
Has this happened to anyone else and how can I stop it?
Much Thanks, Matt

Quit Final Cut Pro. Go to your Render Files folder and trash the contents of the sub-folder there that has the same name as your project.
Next step:
Deleting FCP Preferences:
Open a Finder window. Set the view mode to columns:
Click the house icon that has your name next to it.
Click the folder "Library" in the next column.
Find and click the folder "Preferences" in the next column.

T-code for displaying PO text

Is there any transaction by which we can display PO text (from material master) and material number collectively ?

Hi,
There is no tcode but you can try this. run tcode SE37 and execute funtion module READ_TEST. Input the following fields
CLIENT                      "client number"
ID                              BEST
LANGUAGE               EN
NAME                        "material number". may have prefix with zeros.
OBJECT                     MATERIAL
Cheers !

How do I stop a mini-popup from appearing when I mark text?

When I drag across text to mark it for copying, or click somewhere to start a mark which will be completed by a shift-click, a mini popup often oblterates the area, offering me "copy", "move" etc, and the pop-up cannot be moved to allow completion of the mark, but can be removed only by clicking on the edge of the window, which loses my marking, so I must start again and often suffer a similar pop-up, with the same result. (The pop-up offers no facilities which are not more easily obtained otherwise.) How can I defend against it?

I don't think that's a built-in feature of Firefox. It could be part of a particular web site's editor or it could be added by an add-on.
To quickly see whether it is from an add-on, you could try Firefox's Safe Mode.
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, try starting Firefox in Firefox
[http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
Does that return selections to normal behavior?

Select columns from table for display in alvgrid.

Hi all,
i have the following:
i do select a tablename and pass it as a parameter. then this table is loaded into an internal table and displayed in an alv-grid.
what i now want to do is a step between the both:
after the internal table with its structure is loaded, i want to display the field columns and i want them to be selectable so that in the next step the alv - grid is selected only with the selected columns ( just now it allways runs with all columns - even the not needed ).
Any ideas for that would be appreciated. Is there some tutorial on that or some sample ?

There are a number of ways to create a fieldcat.
For the purpose of this example i will build the fieldcatalog manualy
by populating the internal table fields individually and then
appending the rows. This method can be the most time consuming but can
also allow you more control of the final product.
Beware though, you need to ensure that all fields required are
populated. When using some of functionality available via ALV, such as
total. You may need to provide more information than if you were
simply displaying the result
 I.e. Field type may be required in-order for
 the 'TOTAL' function to work.
