Requirement in Cell Editor

Hello Guys,
I am having one requirement in Cell Editor. My report is static report. I mean all the columns and rows already decided. My infoprovider is contain only one characteristics and two key figures.
My characteristic is Circle and the Key Figures are Minutes of Usage and Revenue. I have to shwo the report like this:
Circle | Minutes of Usaage |Revenue|Cost Center|Profit Center
Tamil Nadu | 100 | 10000 | 201300A | 201300
Karnataka | 50 | 5000 | 201001A | 201001
I dont have details of Cost Center and Profit Center. All are hard coded values. No changes on that. So directly we can maintain like this values.
Remember costcenter and profit center having characters. Otherwise in the cell definition we can create a formula and put this value.
Any body having idea on this ??????
If this will not work, i have to go with one more info provider and tranfer all the data with extra columns..... I dont want to do that........
Regards,
Vivek V

Hi Vivek,
Just a thought:
Since you want to display Char - KF - Char - I dont know how that would be possible - So Can we use Profit/Cost centre ( they are hard coded already) as KF..using replacement path/formula variable..so that it is Char - KF - KF...
And then there should not be possible ??
Dont knw if i m entirely on wrong path - but you can try - let me knw if it works..
when you say hard coded - hard coded where?? Can you get value soem where from master data??
Also Cell Editor makes query performance pathetic
Hope it helps

Create a VC Model for BEx queries with Cell Editor

Hello All,
I am trying to create a VC Model for BEx queries with Cell Editor.
BW Development Team has created a BEX query with complex restrictions and calculations using Cell Editor feature of BI-BEX.
The query output in BEx analyzer is correct where all values are being calculated at each Cell level and being displayed.
But, while creating VC model, system is not displaying the Cells.Thus, no VC Model can be created.
I have executed below steps:
1. Created a VC Model for BEx Query - ZQRY_XYZ
2. Create Iview -> Create a dataService -> Provide a Table from the Output
In the Column field system is not showing any of the Cells (present in Cell Editor)
Please help me to solve this issue.
Thanks,
Siva

Hi
If 'Cell Editor' is been used then that query must have the structure in it. You have to select that 'structure' object in your 'VC Table'.
If you select that then you will get the required result in the output. This structure will be the structure where 'cell reference' is used in BI query, You have to select that structures name.

How to create a context menu in ALV table cell editor(Webdynpro abap )

Hello Experts,
I am having a problem in creating a context menu in a table cell editor in the ALV table output.I have assigned a 'lta' as the cell editor.But befor assigning the lta as cell editor I have assigned the menu to the lta.But when the view is rendered I can see the lta with the actioned assigned to it.But I cannot see the context menu.
The code snippet below:
"Create menu for each coloumn
create OBJECT lo_menu_actions type CL_SALV_WD_VE_MENU EXPORTING
      id = 'MITM_ACTIONS'.
lo_menu_actions->set_visible( value = abap_true ).
lo_menu_actions->set_visible_fieldname( value = 'ACTIONS' ).
"ADd menu items
CREATE OBJECT lo_menu_item_create type CL_SALV_WD_VE_MENU
exporting
    id = 'MITM_CREATE_EXPRESSION'.
lo_menu_item_create->set_visible( value = abap_true ).
lo_menu_item_create->set_visible_fieldname( value = 'Create' ).
"Add item 1
lo_menu_actions->ADD_ITEM( VALUE = lo_menu_item_create ).
" Set the cell editor for each column cell(link to an action)
LOOP AT lt_node_dec_tab_cols INTO ls_node_dec_tab_cols .
    lv_column_name = ls_node_dec_tab_cols-object_name.
    lr_column = lr_column_settings->get_column( lv_column_name ).
   "Create 'lta' Ui item
    CREATE OBJECT lo_lta TYPE cl_salv_wd_uie_link_to_action.
    lo_lta->set_menu( value = lo_menu_actions ).
    lo_lta->set_text_fieldname( lv_column_name ).
    lr_column->set_cell_editor( lo_lta ).
    IF ls_node_dec_tab_cols-is_result EQ abap_true.
      lr_column->set_cell_design( value =
                  cl_wd_table_column=>e_cell_design-key_medium ).
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.

Hi Prakash,
I have not come across this requirement till now to have context menu in a cell editor of alv.
Unfortunately the implementation of method SET_MENU of alv ui elements ( ex: cl_salv_wd_uie_text_view ) is not updating alv configurable table, instead it just stores in a global attribute as string. Hence has no effect on context menu.
If your user is very particular about this requirement of having context menu in cell editor, you can go for a normal table. Because, normal table's cell editor has the property to set the menuID as we do it for other ui elements.

How to display an image in particular cell editor

Hi All,
I want to display an image as the background for the table cell.
I searched in sdn and found the solution only for link to action.
I have created a dynamic table and if i click on apply button one more row is getting added according to my requirement.
I want to differentiate this row from rest. So I need to display image for the last row in the table which is added newly.
Can anyone suggest the procedure for adding an image in a particular cell editor along with the table data?
Hope I am clear with my requirement.
Pls suggest.
Regards,
subashini

Hi,
IF iam not wrong then for some rows u need to show text data and for some rows u need to show image data.
follow the following steps.
1. In ur table add cell editor of type Image.
2.Create a value node with one more than required attributes.
3.Suppose if need to show only one column then i will create
value node with two attributes.One attribute will be for text
data and one will for Image.
4.now access ur table cell editor dynamically.For image type
cell editor we need to play only with two properties source
and alt.Bind this alt property of editor wid that attribute which u
need use for text data and source wid that attribute which u
need to use for image.
5. Now suppose I need to show text data then
I will create one element of that value node.In case of Image
type cell editor source property is given prefrence over alt
property.
set attribute which is bound to alt to the actual text data
i.e setText("Actual text data");
and set attribute which is bound to source to some dummy
image name
i.e setImage("dummy.gif");
add this to node.
during execution as source property of editor is bound to
Image attribute of node which in turn is set to dummy value it
wont find actual source and will set Image cell editor with
watever is bound to alt property which in turn set with actual
text value..
6. Now suppose I need to show Image data then
I will create one element of that value node.In case of Image
type cell editor source property is given prefrence over alt
property.
set attribute which is bound to alt to blank value
i.e setText("");
and set attribute which is bound to source to some Actual
image name
i.e setImage("Image.gif");
add this to node.
during execution as source property of editor is bound to
Image attribute of node which in turn is set to Actual image file
it will set Image cell editor with that image name and wont look for alt property.
Copy all ur images in src->mimes->components->ur package

JTable: RFC on good practice (SQL queries from cell editor)

I usually add/remove/edit JTable data from an external panel. But in this scenario, my client would like to be able to click on the first column of an empty row and enter a product number. Within the cell editor, I must make an SQL query to the database in order to determine if the product number is valid and if so, use part of the SQL data to populate other cells of the current row (like product description).
My problem is that this just doesn't seem right! Isn't the cell editor executed on the only Swing thread? Also, if the product number is not valid, I correctly implement the stopCellEditing() method but for some reason, you can still navigate the table (click on any other cell or press the TAB key, etc)... weird!!
Does anyone have a good practice on how to perform the SQL query in a better place and force a cell to be selected until you enter a valid number or press the CANCEL key?
I was looking at implementing the TableModelListener's tableChanged(...) method but I'm not sure if that would be a better place either.
I personally would edit outside of the table, but good practice seems hard when the requirement is to edit from a cell editor!!
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

maybe you could write an input verifier for the column that does the query and rejects invalid entries.
maybe you could send the query off in a worker thread.
as far as making the table so you can't select any cells, hmm. not sure.
you could disable
.setEnabled(false);the table until the query comes back, something like that.

Problem in table cell editor

Hai,
I inserted as a dropdownkey in table, Parent node ABc is bind to table , the child node DEf bind to coloumn dropdownbyindex. i set child node singleton as false, but its giving null pointer exception.
IXXXView.IABCNode iu=wdContext.nodeABC();
IXXXView.IDEFElement c=iu.nodeDEF().createDEFElement();
How to Solve this.
Hope Anil and Piyush will help me they already know about this problem.
regards,

Hai Bharadwaj,
happy to see you again, I think I am in wrong with creating table cell editor.
i will say my requirement please help me to do:
in the table the first coloumn is number, second one is name, third one is *** ,this coloumn contains two standard Strings male and female, the can select from dropdown index.
what i did is I created context node parent ABC
in that attributes name , age and another node DEF having attribute S.
I created a table and bind the node ABC(its not allow me to check DEF node).
i deleted table cell editor of column *** and created new editor dropdownindex. and binded texts is node DEF
DEF is set to singleton false.
Give me the suggetion.

Cell Editor and Structures

Hi,
I have a requirement to use a field in a previous row of a query result in a calculation in the current row.
My first question is, is this possible ? or does anybosy have any suggestions for a workaround
In trying to determine if it is possible I was going to investigate the use of the Cell Editor. However this requires that I have 2 structures in my query. I have therefore created a reuseable structure for the key figures, but the structure for the characteristics does not display the characteristics selected in either the query definition or the query results. Because of this I cannot proceed with the Cell editor.
Can any one help with defining characteristic structures ?
Can anybody recommend a good book for BW query definition/tips/tricks ?

Hi Bhanu.
I am creating the structure as you say by right clicking
on the 'rows' heading and creating a new structure.
Then I am right clicking on the new structure and dragging and dropping the required characteristics into the structure. eg Plant and Material. I am changing the description eg 'MM Data' Then after closing the dialog I do 'save as' to save the structure as reusable. All appears to work fine. BUT I was expecting the rows of the query to then contain Plant and Material, instead they have a heading of 'MM data' with no values for either Plant or Material showing.
I am therefore not sure that I have grasped the point of reusable structures. Having said that, if I create one in exactly the same way for key figures then it does work in the way I was expecting. ie The key figures contained in the structure are visible in the report.
The actual rqmt I have is to be able to multiply 2 key figures together from separate rows in the query results. i don't think its possible, but was trying to exhaust all avenues of thought before going back to the users with alternatives.

JTable & custom cell editor

Hello everyone,
what is the correct way of writing a custom cell editor for a JTable? I followed the example in the Java tutorial ([How to use tables|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/table.html#editor]), but the result is a bit weird. The code I have is the following:
    private class NumericCellEditor extends AbstractCellEditor implements TableCellEditor {
        NumericFTField field = new NumericFTField(threeDecimalsFormat, 3, null, 1);
        public Component getTableCellEditorComponent(JTable table, Object value,
                boolean isSelected, int row, int col) {
            field.setValue(value);
            return field;
        public Object getCellEditorValue() {
            return field.getValue();
        @Override
        public boolean stopCellEditing() {
            if (((NumericFTField)field).verifyDouble()) {
                field.setBorder(new EmptyBorder(0, 0, 0, 0));
                fireEditingStopped();
                return true;
            } else {
                field.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.red));
                return false;
    }where the NumericFTField is a class derived from JFormattedTextField that only allows digits, decimal separator, minus and 'E' to be inserted, and it monitors clipboard operations. verifyDouble() is a method of the NumericFTField class that verifies whether the current input can be parsed to a double and whether it satisfies everything it should. This is then used in
((TableColumn)jTblSpecs.getColumnModel().getColumn(1)).setCellEditor(new NumericCellEditor());The NumericFTField class works great, I use it also in place of a JTextFields, so I'd say there is nothing wrong with it.
After I click in a cell (single click), it behaves a little different that the default cell editor: the cell is not highlighted, but it immediately jumps to the editing state (why???). I, indeed, can insert the allowed characters only. When I click in a cell, do some editing and press Enter, the cell's content gets validated. If it is invalid, stopCellEditing() method does its magic; if it is valid, the caret disappears and everything SEEMS okay. However, if I started typing at this point, the cell reverts to the editing state, but now I am able to enter any character I want. It truly looks like the cell editor is now some other component, not the original NumericFTField one. What is going on here?
It would be great is someone could provide a short schematic source of a custom cell editor class that would work exactly as the JTable's default one except it would only permit digits and so on. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, just a "skeleton" of the class with comments like "input verification here" etc.
I am sorry for any lack of clarity, but I am still a Java newbie.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Best regards,
vt

Hi,
I am also facing the same problem. In addition to what you have specified, my requirement is to be able to select multiple rows for deletion. But, the very first row selected using mouse is not visible as selected though its selected. The other rows are visible as selected.
If you can use any JDK version, start using JDK1.6. You will not be facing this problem. There were so many changes done for swings from JDK 1.4 to 1.6. But, I have to strictly use JDK1.4, but could not find any workaround for this problem.
It would be great if anyone can help me out in this issue to get workaround for this problem.

How can one resize a cell editor when in use in a JTree?

It is possible to resize, for example, a JTextArea cell editor while it is being used in a JTable by having a document listener check the preferred height and then changing the rowHeight of the table to fit that. This gives the nice effect of the table expanding and contracting in size as required while it is being edited.
I would also like to this this for a Jtree. But one cannot reset the height of an individual JTree row, and although it can be set up to get the correct height when the editor or renderer is installed (via setRowHeight(0)), there does not seem to be a way to dynamically adjust this height while editing.
This would be very nice to be able to do. (I would say it should be required of a good tree component that it allow this).
Is there some way I am missing? It seems like there is no difficult constraint on the design of Jtree which should make this difficult in principle.

Table UI element - dynamic cell editor change on runtime

Hello,
I have standard table UI element defined on one of the views as part of it's layout, two columns only - KEY and VALUE. Both defined as text cell editor by default. Content of the table is dynamic and different combination of keys and values are presented depending on the app context.
Recently the need arised to (depending on the key value) change the cell editor type for single rows only, dynamically from text to link to action - and to register a triggable event for that with some logic behind (to open new window when link is clicked).
Is it possible at all to have a column in Table UI element with different editor types set dynamically on runtime for different rows? Some cells then wolud still be presented as text, some would have a link to action in them.
If possible can I ask for any hints on how to achieve that?
I imagine that first I have to get somehow a reference to the UI element created when the view is triggered first time, then after I recieve values from backend but prior (or after?) binding it to the table context I would like to evaulate the keys and change cell editors accordingly. Then for changed editors (link to action) I would like to register triggable events (on action) which would call some custom methods for further processing. Please advice.
Best regards,
Marcin

Hi,
   You can use the cell variants to display different cell editors in different rows.
   First in your table column where you want to display different cell editors insert two cell variants
   and fill the VARIANT KEY for each cell variant and insert textview under one cell variant and input field
   under another cell variant, and bind the text to be displayed to these cell editors, now take an extra
   attribute of type string in your node and bind it to the table column property SELECTED CELL VARIANT.
   Now depending on your requirement change this attribute to any of the VARIANT KEY defined for cell variants.
loop at itab into wa.
      if 'YOUR CONDITION'.
        wa-cellvar = 'VAR1'.                 "cellvar is the attribute which is bound to SELECTED CELL VARIANT
        else.                                          " of table column
          wa-cellvar = 'VAR2'.                 " VAR1 and VAr2 are the variant keys of cellvariants
          endif.
          modify itab from wa.
      endloop.
Hope this solves your problem.

Table Cell Editor - Link To Action UI

Hi,
I have a Table UI element in the first view and i need that the first column should have Link To Action UI as the cell editor.
For this the requirment is that Context Attribute Type should be Boolean. please let me know why this is so.
Also i want that Link To Action UI should have the text property set to a values from another context attribute. How will this be possible. Please provide some suggestion on this.
Regards
Sidharth

Hi,
Do you use the table binding wizard? There the first option for the binding property of a Link to action is "enabled" as far as I can remember... And <b>this</b> of course has to be boolean.
If you want to bind the text property to a Context element you can do it by choosing text as binding property.
You may also bind the text property to a Context element after completing the wizard.
Does this answer your question?

Dynamically changing dropdown options in JCombox cell editor

Hi all,
I have a JTable with one column with JComboBox renderer and i am using the cell editor for that column as new DefaultCellEditor(JComBoBox renderer class).
My requirement is i want to change the dropdown options basing on another column value.
So what i did is in the setValueAt(...) function i got the table column renderer and as send the new values in a object to the renderer and in the getTableCellRendererComponent method i am checking the row number and setting the dropdown options to the JComboxBox. This works fine and the JComboBox is showing the new dropdown options correctly but when i click on the JcomboxBox cell it is showing the old dropdown options.
So my question is how can i change the values in the editor.
I tried like this in my setValueAt(..) functioin in my JTable model
( (my custom class) ((DefaultCellEditor) table.getColumnModel.getColumn(int)).getComponent).add(NewObject)
in the new object i am sending new dropdown values and row and column but it some how it is updating renderer but not editor. Please give me the solution
Thanks in advance
Sunil

You can extend DefaultCellEditor the same way as you extend cell renderer.
After that you can set it back to your table using table.setCellEditor() method.

How to change the colour of the table cell editor on some condition?

Hi all,
I have a requirment acco which i need to make the colour of the tableceleditor ias RED and font color white when the data in that is < 0.please tell me how is this possible and its urgent..

If you are using release NW04 and have a TextView as table cell editor, you can do this:
Add a calculated attribute "Color" of DDIC type "com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.TextViewSemanticColor" under the data source node of the table.
Bind the "semanticColor" of the cell editor to this context attribute.
Implement the get-method for the calc. attribute like this
WDTextViewSemanticColor get<DataSourceNode>Color(I<DataSourceNode>Element element)
return element.getValue() < 0 ? WDTextViewSemanticColor.NEGATIVE : WDTextViewSemanticColor.STANDARD;

I would like to know about structure,cell editor .

i would like to know about structure,cell editor .

Hi satish ,
structure is used to creat a set of rows and calumns values.
for example,
if you palce char1 in rows and key1 and key 2 in coloums ,
if you want to reuse these you can place the selection in structures and can reuse making them as global structures.
regarding cell defination once you have two active structures i.e., one characteristic structure and key figure structure,
than you can get the "cell editor in menu bar of Query designer next "table" option.
Just go throw the below description.
cell defination will be activated once you have two structures.
if you want use the same characteristic in two structures, you can do that one in cell.
Just go throw with below description.
You can use any cell that you define in a formula. If you want to reuse the value from the implicit, generic cell definition that is automatically created at the intersection of the two structural components of a query, select this cell in the Cell screen area and, using the secondary mouse button, choose New Cell Reference. A description taken from the two structural components now automatically appears in the cell. The symbol shows you that a cell reference exists for this exception cell. Now you can reference this cell. You can continue to use the implicit cell definition and do not have to manually generate this value using a new selection.
Functions of explicitly defined cells:
Select a defined cell and choose the required function from the context menu (secondary mouse button).
● Edit
● Cut
● Copy
● Paste
● Remove
● Where-Used List
Before you delete a cell, you can check for the formulas in which the defined cell is used in the where-used list.
You reach the properties of a defined cell by selecting the defined cell. In the Properties screen area you can also make changes such as:
● Changing the description of the cell
● Changing the highlighting of the cell
● Hiding the cell ( if you do not want to see the values of the cell)
Help cells
In the Help Cells area you can define additional cells for help selections or help formulas. You can use the functions New Selection and New Formula in the context menu to define help cells that are not displayed in the query to serve only as objects for help selections and help formulas.
For example, you can define an invoice in a help cell and use this in a real cell to calculate a duplicated invoice.
a. Using the secondary mouse button, click on the empty cell next to Help Cells to reach the context menu. From here, choose New Selection.
b.Use Drag&Drop to drag the Invoice key figure into the right-hand Details of the Selection area.
c. Enter a description.
d. Choose OK. The cell contains the description of the selection. The symbol shows you that a selection exists for this exception cell.
e. Now choose New Formula from the context menu of the required cell of the query. The new formula that is not yet defined appears in the cell.
f. Select the new formula and choose Edit from the context menu.
g. Use Drag&Drop to drag the cell you have just defined, which you can find in the Available Operands window under Cells, into the Detail View window. Click on the button twice.
h. Enter a description.
i. Choose OK. The cell contains the description of the formula. The symbol shows you that a formula exists for this exception cell.
Result
You have defined one or more exception cells for a query.
