Resource Renderer question

Hi all,
I'm trying to modify the output of the 'News' collaboration room part. I want to make it so that the title of each news item is a little bigger than the description which shows up below it. The 'News' iview that I'm speaking about is based on the com.sap.netweaver.coll.BulletinBoard iview, which can be found in Content Administration -> Portal Content -> com.sap.ip.collaboration -> Template and Part Content -> Homer -> iViews.
I understand that I need to modify the resource renderer that's mentioned in the layout set which is referenced by the iview. I have created a copy of the layout set that's referenced by the iview, which is AppBulletinBoardExplorer. I have tried tinkering with the resource renderer, which is called AppBulletinBoardResourceRenderer. I've tried changing the Primary Text Style to different settings, but nothing seems to make it change. I believe that what may be getting in the way is the flavor for this resource renderer, which is called 'Second_Level'. I tried playing around with this flavor setting but the changes are too extreme when changing from 'Second_Level'.
Can anyone tell me how to change the output of this iview to make it behave like I want it to?
Thanks!

Hi Stephen,
in my portal the News-iView is based on 'com.sap.netweaver.coll.appl.ui.room.Roomnavigation'. The name you mentioned is the name of the pcd-location (i.e the folder).
News are normally based on xml-forms. So I would suggest, that you have a look at the form used here and try to copy and change it by the help of the xml-forms-builder.
You can find more info on help.sa.com http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/8f/fe743c74fa6449e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
Hope this helps

Creating resource renderer - help needed

Hi,
I am trying to create a simple resource renderer. I downloaded the project SimpleResourceRendererWithReadymades from sdn. Can anybody explain what each method in that resource renderer example does?(for ex. renderMetaProperty, render). Is there any documents describing them. I have already searched the APIs and found nothing.
Is there any other document other than the how to guide available for doing this? Please help.
Thanks
Ranjith

How can i use a Property as Link in the Resource Renderer Setings

Hi to all,
i have created a Propertry with the name SFS_NewsLink.
The content of this Property is
http://<server>.<domain>/path/sitemap
Now, how can i use this property in the Visible Propertis? i dont will use use the default "contentLink" i will use as Link the content from the SFS_NewsLink.
how can i do this? have envery one any ideas?
Best Regards

Hello Thomas,
You can modify your Collection Renderer and Resource Renderer to achieve this functionality.

Can't change displayed properties in resource renderer

Hello everybody!
I'm trying to do display a very simple list of filenames in a KM navigation iView. I've assigned a layout set, which references a collection renderer and a resource renderer. In the resource renderer, "Visible Properties" is set to rnd:displayname(contentlink).
But still I get a list with filename, file size and timestamp. No matter what I put in the "Visible Properties" field, the same thing is displayed.
I've verified that the layout set references the correct resource renderer by changing other attributes ("Command Display", for instance), and these changes do have an effect.
Any ideas what might be the problem here?
One more thing. This iView is a dynamic navigation iView. How can I make the documents open in the content area of the portal instead of in a new window?
Any help is very much appreciated.
-martin

Hi Martin,
seems like you have selected a collection renderer for "structured output", like the grid or tree collection renderer. In this case the collection renderer is the one who is responsible of the properties displayed.
So what you have to do is edit the parameter "Displayed Properties" of your collection renderer with the properties you want to display.
Check this <a href="https://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=28751">link</a> for more info about "unstructured vs. structure coll. renderers".
Hope this helps,
Robert
PS: The iView Property "Launch in New Window" should be set to "Display in Portal Content Area", in order have the iView displayed as you wish.

Custom Resource Renderer not coming on Implementing Flexible UI Components

HI,
I am using the Sneak Preview NW2004s SP9 with TREX .
I have to modify the search result list as returned by the TREX using the default search, basically have to include a custom Link based on the resource name.
I am trying to run the examples from the Knowledge Management and Collaboration Developer's Guide - "How to Implement Flexible UI Components".
I deployed the par file for the sample application "Using Flexible UI Ready-Mades"
and followed the steps as outlined below:
System Administration>System Configuration>Knowledge Management -->Content Management
1) Under
User Interface->Mapping>Resource Renderer
Created a new mapping for the java class com.sap.km.ui.renderer.SimpleResourceRenderer
2) Then under
User Interface->Settings>Resource Renderer Settings
Created a duplicate of SearchResourceRenderer
and in the copy changed the Resource Renderer to the custom one(as the one mapped in previous step).
In the Search Result layout Set, i changed the Resource Renderer Name to the custom one.
Now i restarted the server.(i tried restarting after almost all the steps )
But my resource renderer is not coming after i execute the TREX Search.The list returned seems to use the default Resource Renderer.
I even tried by making an advanced copy of the Search Layout Set, changed the Resource Renderer name, updated the OTH file(search.oth), Switched on the degugging for the WdfProxy and reloaded the OTH.
Now the new layout Set is being used but still i cannot see the result as per the custom resource renderer.
Morover, if i try to print some message from the resource renderer code(Component render method), it is not printed in the default Trace file.
Please help me in identifying and resolving the problem.
Thanks,
Siddhartha

Hi Detlev,
Sorry for the delay.
We don't want to exlude the folders, we would like keep it, the problem is, instead of appearing the folder name, is displayed the error message and below the actions (details, delete, ).
At first, we thought that could have been an error in the configuration of LayoutSet, but then, we tried on other two environments, with the default LayoutSet configuration and we still get, on the three environments, the same error message.
Any idea?
Thanks and Regards,
John

KM Doc Iview & Resource Renderer

Hi,
I have a XML Form with two Shows - Show & Show-X.
I created a IView of KM Navigation and created a new XML Form Renderer to show the contents of a Show-x form.
I created a IView of KM Document type and it picks Show by default. Can I change the Resource Renderer of such IView?
Rgds

hi
basically an Xml FORM has two types of renderer one collection renderrer and other resource renderrer u can duplicate the renderer but before hand duplicate the command group and add or delete those commands required and attach the command group to duplicated resource renderrer and apply the renderrer to duplicated Layout that is layout of the form has to be duplicated and then that duplicated layout has to be attached to the form. basically iviews to be used is NEWS Authoring and layouts to be used is NEWSExplorer and News Browser just back trace them and you will find the renderers for duplications.hope this helps you.please don,t forget to give points
with regards

XML Resource Renderer presentation issue!

Hi All
I have created an XML form with 2 display RenderListItem's they are called UserView and EditorView, then I have created 2 XML Resource Renderers to state the XML Forms Transformation and they display but they look nothing like what the form created.
Can any one help me solve this problem?
I am sure it is something I have overlooked - I am running EP7 SP8
Thanks all for your time!

This is the exact problem I am having; however, the unusual thing is that I didn't have this problem in the past. Right now, we're using an iView with the AppAnnouncementExplorer layout set (which utilizes the NewsExplorer resource renderer). We use it because the folder that this iView displays has five subfolders in which the news items are categorized, but the user doesn't need to click on a folder name to display its contents: the contents of these subfolders are displayed on the iView (news title, author, date, and description) and all the user must do is click on the title of the news item they are interested in. One of the folder contains Word documents instead of News items, but the links to the documents have always shown up correctly in the past using the AppAnnouncementExplorer layout set.
However, yesterday I began developing custom XML forms using the XML Forms Builder, and now I get an XMLResourceRenderer error when this old iView tries to display the contents of the folder that contains the Word documents. According to your instructions, this is a correct error... but I'm wondering why it worked in the past? I even disabled my new form to that KM folder. And is there a resource renderer that will display the contents of news/announcement items that reside in subfolders, but will still display other documents as links instead of giving an error?
We're running EP6 SP11. Thank you very much for any assistance.

Error: Resource cannnot rendered with XML Resource Renderer?

Hi, KMC fellows,
When I tried to display/edit news with NewsExplorer, it throw me this error from times to times:
"Resource cannnot rendered with XML Resource Renderer"
But I am using the default NewsExplorer without making any custom change, how do I solve this problem?
Thanks for any constructive inputs.
Kent

Hi Kent,
> But when the server restart, it become fine for while,
> then it will repeats from times to times.
If you can reproduce it (I know, really "reproducing" is probably not possible) - so if this behaviour occurs while you know / can see from monitoring that no KMC restart has happened - please open an OSS message!
Best regards

Experimenting with FCP/ Real time rendering question

Hello, I am preparing to purchase a Mac Pro and spent some time at the local mac affiliate store playing with FCP and motion.
In fcp I took two clips and dropped them in the timeline, adding the 3d cube transition, and some filters to both clips.
I was looking at performance of real time rendering on teh base config of the MP I plan on purchasing.
I then added another clip above these two, intending on dropping the opacity to further push the RTR (real time rendering). This clip overlapped the transition of the two other clips in v1 and v2.
When attempting to play the timeline the viewer window now said "Not Rendered"
My question is:
Is there a limit to how many tracks can be run under the RTR? Why did I get this message?
My main reason of the move to a Mac Pro is to get away from constantly pre-rendering.
Thanks everyone in advance!

Sounds like you know what you're doing and what you expect. A factor that has not been mentioned yet, besides RAM, prefs and drive speeds, is your video format.
Also, the new rev of FCP is taking advantage of tons of processing overhead, vastly increasing the amount of stuff you can do in real time. However, real time is largely a preview operation, regardless of the machine or system, unless you are using proprietary codecs, such as Media 100, that might be hardware-assisted. Output is almost always a rendering issue, multiple stacked or processed layers require the creation of new media.
The only way you're going to be able to decide if Macintosh and FCP are right for you is to demo thoroughly and that requires using your own footage.

Preview rendering question

Hey all, Mike the newbie has more questions
I imported about 6k images into lightroom and I'm working on organizing them within the collections but my question previews. As I scroll through the library there is a delay in seeing the images as they seem to render realtime. This seems to impact me more when the library has larger images and I'm scrolling down more.
I imported the images using the 1:1 previews, would going with standard preview produced a better performance result?
How about none? I read the FAQ but it really doesn't address whether the rendering is altered by choosing this the different preview options.
My second question about previews is there any option to rebuild them, for instance say there is a speed bump with using the standard previews, can I delete the current ones and recreate/rebuild them somehow?

I imported the images using the 1:1 previews, would going with standard preview produced a better performance result?
How about none?
That's strange. There might be some small performance penalty of having 1:1 previews over standard (since they are physically bigger), but it should be marginal. What is your machine specs?
My guess is either the machine is too slow or your expectations are too high (Lightroom is not speed daemon). Are your sure the previews have actually be built?
My second question about previews is there any option to rebuild them, for instance say there is a speed bump with using the standard previews, can I delete the current ones and recreate/rebuild them somehow?
Yes, you can discard 1:1 previews and rebuilt standard. Use the Library>Previews menus.

Station Globals resource related question( how much it allocates / optimal size of it in system)

Hi,
I have some questions StationGlobal’s oriented:
1. Does the variables of type StationGlobal allocate equals amount of memory without reference to type?
   For example: Number/String/Boolean/Object Reference allocates equals resources:Number=String=Boolean=Object Reference=’X’ bytes)
   Or Number=’X’ bytes, String=’Y’ bytes, Boolean=’Z’ bytes?
2. Does it make the difference if I have 10 or 100 or 1000 StationGlobals variables allocated in my system regards - resources of my system and
    how the quantity of it influences(or not influences) to performance of system/Test execution?
Those questions are important, because we want to know how the quantity/type of StationGlobal’s lvariables influence to overall throughput/performance of
System (e.g. Test running).
Thank you & Best Regards
*I use LabVIEW 8.X & TestStand 3.5/4.0.1 versions only

Not so strange IMHO. You might be making a mental analogy to C data structures where nothing is abstracted and you know exactly what is happening to each byte.
However, TestStand variables are black box objects with a lot more functionality than plain C data structures. Like most such objects you create via almost any object oriented API, their exact memory usage is NOT documented.
One reason memory usage is not documented is that we need to be free to change the implementation if necessary, which would not be possible if we make guarantees about exact memory usage. Another reason it is not documented is because in most practical cases, it is not important, and we don't want to mislead people into worrying about it.
If you are allocating data structures of such vastness that it actually does matter, then the task manager is an appropriate and easy tool to use to view the approximate magnitude of memory used by the objects you create. This applies to most objects from most APIs, not just TestStand variables.

Additional Collection/Resource Renderer Properties and Actions

Hi,
All LayoutSets shows the property createdby as name of the user, and i need to display the user id instead of the name. I already tried the property rnd:user_id, without success, the column Id is displayed, but the resources lines doesnt contain any value under the column ID.
Any hint?
I also need to add a link (action) to a specific property, different from the predefined links existent on the portal (e.g. rnd:displayname(contentlink). Something like rnd:displayname(http://www.google.com/search?q=rnd:displayname). Is it possible?
Thanks and regards,
John

Hi John,
I'm unsure if for the first thing there isn't a standard property / property renderer; double-check by yourself if there isn't something to use.
Both aims can be reached by implementing a propertyRenderer, using a "dummy" property (just create something like "googleProperty", implement the propertyRenderer, activate it on your dummy property, and set the dummy property on the resource or collection renderer (depending on the layoutSet used)).
Hope it helps

Using Dynamic Link for projects cut in Premiere and effects in AE.. Rendering Question..

Hello,
So this baffles me. I've been working a lot in Premiere CC lately with ProResHQ green screen material. I send the sequence or individual clips using After Effects by right clicking on the clip in Premiere and selecting Create After Effects Composition...
So I do my thing and when it comes time to render, I select render from IN to OUT in Premiere and wait. Now here's my question. If I select render in Premiere, it will be very sluggish until I click on the After Effects icon in my dock which brings the app to the foreground again. For some reason, this will dramatically accelerate my render speeds in premiere after I re-select the AE app. Why is this doing this?
I'm using a new Mac Pro trashcan tower 3.5 clock speed. 64GB ram. Dual D700 graphics card. I am using a USB3.0 drive for my editing and the internal drive on the tower for the scratch. I'm getting a Lacie 1TB little bigdisk thunderbolt2 that will be my prime scratch and video location for future stuff.
Thanks for your help -

Generally speaking, there is no 'one & only' proper workflow. Just keep in mind the following:
- not all effects and transitions are properly translated when travelling from PrPro to AE;
- in Dynamic Link scenario PrPro communicates with AE projects via single instance of headless AE, which creates a bottleneck. See this good old thread on Dynamic Link workflow, pay attention to Todd's comments;
- since AE allows to set a DI as a proxy to dynamically linked comp, with reasonable amount of dynamically linked comps in PrPro project you can enjoy the best of both worlds, instantly switching between a DI and dynamically linked comp back and forth with no needs to replace anything in PrPro timeline. Test on your own with which amount of dynamically linked comps setting DIs as proxies still work. For my rig test 30 min sequence built out of 935 dynamically linked comps, which are just source footages in their own comps, hence, the equivalent to rendered DIs set to proxies, takes around 27 hours to render, while 30 min sequence built out of the same 935 source footages renders in real time.

Resource Utilization Question

Hi, Please let me know if the following scenario is a possibility.
We currently maintain our capacity utilization at 90% for any resource and the same number is carried over to APO (SCM 5.0) with CIF. The requrement we have is to set this utilization to 100% for the rolling current date+3 months and 90% outside the 3 month horizon. I know that the dates can be specified explicity in R/3 but I don't know if the rolling 3 month is possible. Please let me know if this can be achieved via config or master data setting in APO.
Thanks in advance.

Phaneendra,
To maintain the capacity utilization (Variable) time based. You can use the interval planning in ECC and then you can CIF this intervals to APO. Before you setup the intervals you need to perform one CIF customization activity in CFC9. Using the external capacit. Check(X) this field in ECC.
Step 1: In CR01when you are creating the work center under the capacity tab and you maintain the capacity category (Machine/Labor). Then Click on Capacity header.
Step 2: In capacity header you maintain the interval. Before this you select the Active version (1) under Available capacity.
Step 3: Click on intervals, there you can maintain the from date and to date. Define the number of intervals you requrie.
Step 4. Click on intervals+Shift there you can call the defined intervals and maintain the capacity utilization what you require for business. Also you can add intervals in this screen by clicking on insert intervals.
Step 5: After you are done you need to click on APO resource (this step is very important),which you can see top right corner under capacity header. Here under header data for APO resource you select the type of resource multimixed/single mixed (SNP) or mulitactivity/single activity (PPDS). In the same screen you need to maintian the factory calendar and active version under the available capacity.
After you are done with all the steps now you can CIF the resource as external resource to SNP. The intervals you maintained in ECC is visible in capacity profile in SNP resource transaction. This how you maintain the time based capacity utilization. It is bit tricky while maintaining all the fields. Do let me know if you have any questions.

Resource Bundling question.

Hi,
I have a message in my resource bundle say:
static final Object[] messages_ =
{ T2zosMessageKeys.MYDETAILS_,
" My name is = {0} and my age is "{1}"},
My question is when I invoke this message in my resource bundle , how do I supply the parameters to the arguments {0} and {1}?

Well, if that's your resource file, I would say you need some sort of method to search and replace those parameters in the string.
