Rename a text symbol(std object)

Hello Gurus,
I am applying a SAP note.
As a part of it , I am supposed to do few code changes.
Now the steps given asks me to chage two text symbols
(Both of the text symboles belong to standers SAP reports. And i have alredy entered the modification key. Actually no need to specify)
But when i am trying to change the text symbole it is popping up a message
"Text symbol T02 is an original text and cannot be deleted or renamed"
Please help me with your kind suggestations.
Thanks in advence!!

Try copying the text element from edit->copy text symbol, modify this and delete the original text symbol.
Hope, this helps...

  • Table containing Program Texts(Text Symbols, SelectionTexts, List Heading)

    Hi All,
             I would like to know which is the standard SAP std. table which stores the data regarding Text Symbols, SelectionTexts, and List Heading of every program we create. There should definitly be a table where it is stored (otherwise we will not be able to retrieve it each time).
    I have found out a structure RS38M which has all the required fields. But since it is a structure, it doesnt contain data. 
    So please inform if any body knows any standard SAP table which stores Program Texts. A quick, correct reply would be highly appreciated.

    Hi
    All these texts are stored in text pool not in any std. table.
    To retrieve these info u have to use statement like:
    READ TEXTPOOL <prog_name> INTO itab LANGUAGE <language> [STATE state].
    This statement reads the text elements of the text pool of the language specified in lang and the program specified in prog from the Repository and places them into the internal table itab. The previous content of itab is deleted. If the text elements cannot be read, then the content of itab remains unchanged.
    For prog, you must specify a flat character-like data object, which contains the name of the program of the text elements to be read; the name is case-independent. The internal table can have any table type and its row type must correspond to structure TEXTPOOL from the ABAP Dictionary.
    For lang, you must specify a flat character-like data object, which contains a language key of up to one character, whose value must be contained in the SPRAS column of database table T002. If lang contains a blank, the behavior is undefined.
    After a successful read, itab contains in the ENTRY column the texts of the text symbols, the selection texts, the list headers and the title from the program attributes. Every text element that exists for the specified language occupies one row of the internal table and is identified uniquely by the columns ID and KEY. The column LENGTH contains the length of the text element. The table below shows the possible values of the columns ID and KEY and their meaning:
    ID KEY ENTRY
    H 001 to 004 List header: Column headings
    I Text symbol identifier Text symbol text
    R - Program title
    S Name of a parameter or selection criterion Selection text
    T - List Title: Titlebar

  • Text symbol for automatic insertion of file and page data

    In Visio I have a footer on my wireframe pages that includes text symbols referencing data about the file (document name, last edited) and also the number of the page. These symbols automatically update as the data changes. I can do something similar in InDesign and Word.
    I cannot seem to find a way to do this in Fireworks. Perhaps I just don't know what the feature is called?
    --Jim

    Apologies, but you weren't particularly clear on the problems you were having in your prior post, so I was just making sure you actually found the shapes.
    You didn't ask about customizing the shapes either. If you had, we might have been able to save you the time. Auto shapes have very specific editable on-canvas features. The rest is controlled under the hood by JavaScript. It's quite likely that - had you opened the JS file - you could have made some of those edits. That's the cool thing about these shapes. You CAN change things.
    I don't pretend to be a JS guru, but when I opened the JSF file, I was able to find the variables for changing font color, size, fill color and whether the text automatically expands to fill the box, in few minutes.
    On the canvas, I can use the Subselection tool to change the width of the box and its fill, as well as the size of the text block.  I can use the customize command for the shape itself to place each piece of information on a separate line.Will you get a warning message when you resize the rectangle? Yes, because you are altering the base parameters of an object controlled by JS. Does it have a negative impact on  the shape? No.
    As for autonumbering of Pages, I isaid that this is an automatic feature in FW. You have no control over it in the current version and as I said, I do not beleive the numbering is carried over to a PDF. Beside each page name you will see a 2 digit number - that is what I was referring to.
    If you do not manually name your pages, FW will also name them onthe sequence in which they were created, Page 1, Page 2 etc. FW will NOT change that name if you change the order of the pages; it sill only update the sequence number.
    As you said yourself, you are new to Fireworks. Don't throw in the towel because of one negative experience, which could have been resolved with more knowledge of the software, or additional questions in the forum. And remember that Fireworks is not just a wireframing tool; it is also a design tool.

  • What is a text symbol, what does it do (other than mess with my doc)?

    I am working with FM8 in Tech Comm Suite 1 on Windows XP.
    Some of my docs have text symbols sprinkled liberally throughout the text.  I know you can select the option not to view the text symbols, but they still show up in FM and PDFs and RoboHelp and play havoc with the spacing.
    What are text symbols?
    What purpose do they serve?
    How can you make sure they aren't inserted when creating a doc?
    Is there any way to get rid of them easily?
    Thanks for the help that I know will soon be coming.
    M

    To clarify, text symbols are one of FrameMaker's visual guides that can be optionally displayed in a FrameMaker document window to indicate the location of something else. A text symbol appears as a special character, but never prints or appears in PDF. However, the represented object may indeed affect the way the published document appears. As explained in the FM 9 User Guide, there are text symbols for an end of paragraph, end of flow, tab, anchored frame, table anchor, marker, forced return, equation alignment point, nonbreaking space, discretionary hyphen, and suppress hyphenation. You turn text symbols on and off with the View > Text Symbols command. Doing so does not affect the content of your document; it just helps you locate where the represented objects occur.
    Thus, the problem you are having is not text symbols per se, but the object represented by a text symbol. As others have commented, the tab character can produce the observed results. Viewing text symbols can help you locate the tab characters. While tab characters can be inserted automatically in an autonumber or, in a structured document, in a prefix or suffix, they can also be entered from the keyboard, by pasting, or by converting a document that contains them from another format. You can find tabs that are not automatic using Edit > Find/Change. Type \t as the text you want to find. If you wish you can do a global change to remove all the tabs in the document or change them all to spaces.

  • Text symbols

    Hi,
    Does someone know if it's possible in a function module to use text symbols declared in another program (report) ?
    Are Text symbols a part of a report / MF or different objects that can be used outside ?
    Thanks

    If you really need to access a text symbol of a different program or class, you can use the ABAP statement [READ TEXTPOOL|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPREAD_TEXTPOOL.htm].
    To access the text symbols associated to a class, you need to use its include name, e.g.
    READ TEXTPOOL 'CL_OSME_GENERATOR=============CP' ...
    to access the text symbols of the class CL_OSME_GENERATOR. You can use the class CL_OO_INCLUDE_NAMING to determine the include name of a class.
    Of course, the online text repository is the better way to provide a central storage point for texts you want to use in many different programs.

  • Finding text symbols

    hi,
    In a given code i want the o/p as a list of all the text symbols used .
    Also what is the range of text symbols which can be assigned to any nos of literals in given pgm.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    You can search for the char <fs> or just < > you will know where they are used in the program.
    go through the doc.
    Syntax
    FIELD-SYMBOLS <fs> { typing | STRUCTURE struc DEFAULT dobj }.
    Extras:
    1. ... typing
    2. ... STRUCTURE struc DEFAULT dobj
    Effect
    The FIELD-SYMBOLS statement declares a field symbol <fs>. The naming conventions apply to the name fs. The angle brackets of the field symbols indicate the difference to data objects and are obligatory. You can declare field symbols in any procedure and in the global declaration section of an ABAP program, but not in the declaration section of a class or an interface. You can use a field symbol in any operand position in which it is visible and which match the typing defined using typing.
    After its declaration, a field symbol is initial - that is, it does not reference a memory area. You have to assign a memory area to it (normally using the ASSIGN statement) before you can use it as an operand. Otherwise an exception will be triggered.
    Addition 1
    ... typing
    Effect
    You can use the addition typing to type the field symbol. The syntax of typing is described under Syntax of Typing. The typing specifies which memory areas can be assigned to the field symbol (see Checking the Typing) and in which operand positions it can be used.
    Note
    You can omit the addition typing outside of methods. In this case, the field symbol has the complete generic type any and is implicitly assigned the predefined constant space during the declaration.
    Addition 2
    ... STRUCTURE struc DEFAULT dobj
    Effect
    If you specify the addition STRUCTURE instead of typing for a field symbol, and struc is a local program structure (a data object, not a data type) or a flat structure from the ABAP Dictionary, this structure is cast for the field symbol <fs>. You have to specify a data object dobj that is initially assigned to the field symbol.
    The field symbol copies the technical attributes of structure struc as if it were completely typed. When you assign a data object using the addition DEFAULT, or later using ASSIGN, its complete data type is not checked in non- Unicode programs. Instead, the system merely checks whether it has at least the length of the structure and its alignment.
    In Unicode programs, we differentiate between structured and elementary data objects. For a structured data object dobj, its Unicode fragment view has to match the one of struc. In the case of an elementary data object, the object must be character-type and flat, and struc must be purely character-type. The same applies to assignments of data objects to field symbols typed using STRUCTURE when using the ASSIGN statement.
    Note
    Field symbols declared using the addition STRUCTURE are a mixture of typed field symbols and a utility for casting structured data types. You should use the additions TYPE or LIKE for the FIELD-SYMBOLS statement to type field symbols, while the addition CASTING of the ASSIGN statement is used for casting.
    Example
    The first example shows the obsolete usage of the addition STRUCTURE.
    DATA wa1 TYPE c LENGTH 512.
    FIELD-SYMBOLS <scarr1> STRUCTURE scarr DEFAULT wa1.
    <scarr1>-carrid = '...'.
    The second example shows the replacement of STRUCTURE with the additions TYPE and CASTING.
    DATA wa2 TYPE c LENGTH 512.
    FIELD-SYMBOLS <scarr2> TYPE scarr.
    ASSIGN wa2 TO <scarr2> CASTING.
    <scarr2>-carrid = '...'.
    reward if useful

  • Not able to make change of text in text symbol which are stored in txt pool

    Hi Experts,
    I have new problem today. I have been told to make changes of header text which is displayed after running one customized program.
    Program name : ZSDXXXXX1 which is attached in one Tcode: ZSDXX2.But when I goto SE38 and display the program to make changes, it shows the following different report name like AQCSSYSTQV000009ZSDXXXXX1 and the text symbols text-f58 which are somewhat different.
    Pls gide me to proceed further...
    In SE38:
    report AQCSSYSTQV000009ZSDXXXXX1
       line-size 253 no standard page heading line-count 000(003).
    include <symbol>.
    include <icon>.
    selection-screen: begin of block prog
                               with frame title text-f58.
    tables LIKP.
    data %count-LIKP(4) type x.
    data %linr-LIKP(2).
    tables aqldb.
    include rsaqexcd.
    data: begin of %st_liste occurs 100,
              head(1),
              tab(3),
              line(6) type n,
              cont(1) type n,
              fint(1),
              finv(1),
              fcol(1) type n,
              text(0253),
          end of %st_liste.
    etc.

    As per the report name "AQCSSYSTQV000009ZSDXXXXX1", it seems that there will be a SAP Infoset "ZSDXXXXX1"
    Go to transaction SQ02 with this infoset name "ZSDXXXXX1" then press change button.
    Then on right hand side there witll be field groups/data fields. Select the folder corresponding to Text-F58 and then press change button .
    If it does not work try transaction SQ01 & SQ03.

  • Assigning a Value to a Text Symbol: DEFINE

    Hi all,
    I am printing some text in the form. The text is in the database table and is retrieved. say the field name is fld06 in the table ztfin. Previously it is code as &zfin-fld06& in the form edotir. Now my requiremnet is to dispay some other text where ever I have to print ztfin-fld06. I have used the define statement in this way :
    /: DEFINE &ztfin-fld06& = 'Data Fattura'
    But when I look at the output the text is not replaced nor it is realised while I am debugging. Can anyone tellme where I am going wrong ?
    Regards,
    Varun.
    Message was edited by: varun sonu

    hi
    chk this out
    <b>DEFINE: Value assignment to text symbols
    Text symbols receive their value through an explicit assignment. This assignment can be made interactively in the editor via the menu options Include &#61614;&#61472;&#61614;&#61472;Symbols &#61614;&#61472;&#61614;&#61472;Text. This lists all the text symbols of a text module, as well as those of the allocated layout set.
    The contents defined in this way are lost if the transaction is exited. To continue printing the text module, you would have to enter the symbol values again.The DEFINE command allows you to anchor this value assignment firmly in the text, to also have it available when you next call up the text. Furthermore, you can allocate another value to a text symbol in
    the course of the text.
    Syntax:
    /: DEFINE &symbolname& = ‘value’
    Example:
    /: DEFINE &re& = ‘Your correspondence of 3/17/94’
    Example:
    /: DEFINE &symbol1& = ‘xxxxxxx’
    /: DEFINE &symbol2& = ‘yyy&symbol1&’
    /: DEFINE &symbol1& = ‘zzzzzzz’
    Result: &symbol2& &#61614;&#61472;yyyzzzzzzz
    The assigned value may have a maximum of 60 characters. It can also contain further symbols. When a symbol is defined using the control command DEFINE, symbols which occur in the value are not immediately replaced by their value. They are only replaced when the target symbol is output. If the operator := is used in the DEFINE statement, all symbols which occur in the value which is to be assigned are immediately replaced by their current values. The resulting character string is only then assigned to the target symbol when all occurring symbols have been replaced. The length of the value is limited to 80 characters. The target symbol must be a text symbol, as at present.
    Syntax:
    /: DEFINE &symbolname& := ‘value’</b>
    <i>u can also write a perform...endperform to change the value of a field to ur required text.</i>

  • Issue passing values to text symbols in Dynamic text PDF forms

    Hello Everyone,
    I am facing a problem related to Dynamic texts in Adobe PDF forms (Text node of type include text). I am able to pass the dynamic values to the Text node properties but i am not able to pass the values to Text symbols inside the Text node. When tested it says the field not found. I have the same structure and field in the CONTEXT as that of the text symbol. The problem i see is because in PDF the field names have $record.(fieldname) ?
    Please share your thoughts if anyone has faced similar problem or know how to handle it.
    Thanks a million in advance,
    Chandu

    Open the report up in the Designer and Click on Edit, Subreport Links. Likely what you can do is use Shared Variables to pass values from the main report to the subreport.
    You need to do this in the report first. If you are using RAS then you can at runtime. If RAS is not available to you then no way in code.
    See these samples:

  • Text flow around objects such as giraffe neck in sample

    Hi
    I am new here. I bought pages yesterday. Awesome app. On the example pages there is a giraffe and the text flows around it's neck. When I tried to do something similar the text only flows around the whole square image imported regardless of white space. How do you get text to flow around non square objects.
    In the getting started there is a butterfly and the golden viewer. In those cases the text also flows around the non square shape of these objects
    Do you need an app to cut out such objects and paste them direct into pages?
    Or in other words : how did they get the text to flow around giraffe neck?
    Thanks a mil

    ...If following the instructions there for "+Wrap text around an object"+ doesn't do it, it implies that you'll have to cut around the image first. And this phrase there, seems to suggest that you'll have to cut around first:
