Row templates overriding column format

We're in the process of inserting row templates into existing reports, rather than have separate row definitions for each IS, etc. When the template is inserted, column formatting is lost. We're tried reestablishing the formatting, inheriting formatting from a non-template row, etc., but nothing seems to work. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I've the same problem.
In Column Heading Template I've entered:
<td class="t16ReportHeader" id="#COLUMN_HEADER#" #ALIGNMENT#>#COLUMN_HEADER#</td> and it's working fine.
In Row template I've entered
<tr #HIGHLIGHT_ROW#>
<td headers="#COLUMN_HEADER#" class="t16data" #ALIGNMENT#>#1#</td>
<td headers="#COLUMN_HEADER#" class="t16data" #ALIGNMENT#>#2#</td>
<td headers="#COLUMN_HEADER#" class="t16data" #ALIGNMENT#>#3#</td>
<td headers="#COLUMN_HEADER#" class="t16data" #ALIGNMENT#>#4#</td>
<td headers="#COLUMN_HEADER#" class="t16data" #ALIGNMENT#>#5#</td>
</tr>Neither #ALIGNMENT# nor #COLUMN_HEADER# nor #HIGHLIGHT_ROW# is recognized and 'tranlsated' to correct value, it's just written like it is to the HTML code.
Are there any news how to solve the problem?
(I'm using ApEx 3.0)
Thanks

Substitution String in Row Template order dependant

Hi Folks,
This questions is related to an earlier Complex Detail Report Layout: Can it be done? about building a complex row template (thanks for your help, Vikas!). 
Having built the row template (Named Columns) and tested it in a separate application, I have been preparing to incorporate it into the target application. (Here's a screen shot of the work in progress.) I decided to see if I could use column aliases with the substitution strings and so added an alias to the query for the report. 
Strange values appeared (like a "Y" for a Project Name) and initially I thought the aliases wouldn't work, so I backed the change out. However, it was now quite apparent that the substitution strings were not taking their values from the column names, as I expected. I was able to put the values in the correct place by modifying the order of the columns selected in the query. 
Am I misunderstanding? Shouldn't the order of the columns in the select statement be irrelevant when named columns are used? 
Since the order in the query is NOT the order displayed in the template, and I have nearly 30 fields, (many of which are dates, and I couldn't possible guess which is which if the substitution doesn't work properly), it seems important to understand how to ensure the proper values appear in the report. 
Many thanks for your help, 
Petie

I take it back. This is whacked. Please take a look at the picture (http://tinypic.com/view/?pic=nygyu0)
OK, I had a select statement:
select ps.project_name, ps.project_manager, ps.gts_dependant, ps.gxp_relevant from project_status ps, eprs_program p
where
ps.program_id = p.id and
p.program_number = :P6_PROGRAM_NUMBERThis populated the fields #PROJECT_NAME#, #PROJECT_MANAGER#, etc. properly.
I even switched the order around and put the ps.project_manager ahead of the ps.project_name and template still worked.
I restored the order and checked again. All is good.
I changed the query and added an alias like so:
select ps.project_name as "PROJ_NAME", ps.project_manager, ps.gts_dependant, ps.gxp_relevant from ...The report showed the substitution string "#PROJECT_NAME#" (as expected, because the column was now aliased.) So this is good.
I went to the row template definition and changed the substitution string #PROJECT_NAME# to #PROJ_NAME# to match the query -- and the substitution strings broke again!
The report template now behaves as described earlier; being position dependant. Now I suspect that this is a bug, and not something caused by my mucking around.
I would greatly appreciate your thoughts on the matter and potential workaround. At this point, I will likely delete the region and try creating a new region. I would hate to loose the whole page, the top part was a lot of effort. <sigh>
Thanks,

Report Row Template: Column condition

In a classic report using a Generic Column template, one can use the Column Condition attribute to conditionally render the column.
But when using a named column (row template), even though the Builder allows one to specify this condition, it doesn't appear to be used.
So how would one implement conditional column display in these templates?
Thanks

Hi,
That's actually easier. See: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=267:60]
The SQL for both reports is:
SELECT EMPNO, ENAME, NVL(SAL,0) SAL, NVL(COMM,0) COMM
FROM EMP
ORDER BY EMPNOThe SAL and COMM columns have been formatted using:
999G999G999G999G990D00For the Row Template, the Row Template 1 setting contains an empty space (you have to have something in there otherwise Apex adds back in a default row containing five cells!). The condition for this is:
TO_NUMBER('#COMM#','999G999G999G999G990D00') < 100The template will see the data as a string, so we use the same number format to convert that string back into a number and compare this to 100. If we didn't use formatting on the numbers and we are sure that every row contained a number (hence the use of NVL()), then you could use:
#COMM# < 100Row Template 2 contains the format for the rows that need displaying:
<tr>
<td class="t18Data">#1#</td>
<td class="t18Data">#2#</td>
<td class="t18Data" style="text-align:right">#3#</td>
<td class="t18Data" style="text-align:right">#4#</td>
</tr>and is unconditional.
The only other settings on the Row Template are the Before Rows:
<table class="t18Standard" style="border-collapse:collapse; border:1px solid black;">
<tr>
<th class="t18ReportHeader">Empno</th>
<th class="t18ReportHeader">Ename</th>
<th class="t18ReportHeader" style="text-align:right">Sal</th>
<th class="t18ReportHeader" style="text-align:right">Comm</th>
</tr>and After Rows:
</table>Of course, you will note that the record counters at the bottom still show the number of records in both reports - as the SQL still outputs the same data, this doesn't change.

Report Writer Row and Column Format

Hi
Was wondering if there is a possible solution to this :-
Understand that column format is controlled by format groups. This means that all figures in the same column will take the same format (such as scaling and decimal place).
Scenario is ->
                    Colunn #1 -> column set as displaying no decimal point
Rev                  120
OP                      5
OP margin %     4.2 -> how to set this to 1 decimal point. Any formula syntax that I can use?
Regards.

Hi Vinay,
Based on my research, freezing row and column headers are different in table and matrix.
In a table, if we want to freeze column header, we should make the changes in the first Static row group in Row Groups pane with Advanced Mode as you said. If we want to freeze row header, the table should have a group ahead, then we can enable “Repeat header
rows on each page” and “Keep header visible while scrolling” options in Row Headers in Tablix Properties dialog box.
In a matrix, if we want to freeze column header, we can enable “Repeat header columns on each page” and “Keep header visible while scrolling” options in Column Headers in Tablix Properties dialog box. If we want to freeze row header, we can enable “Repeat
header rows on each page” and “Keep header visible while scrolling” options in Row Headers in Tablix Properties dialog box.
Hope this helps.

Custom report row template

Few questions when using a custom report row template. Followup to the discussion Report Row Template: Column condition
1. The row template allows full control how the entire row is rendered. I can see this being used when the report query returns a single row and we need to format it in a very specific way. But when the query returns multiple rows, how is the specified Row Template used? i.e the first row is "consumed" and rendered as per the template. If the same process is repeated for subsequent rows, how can we control whether successive rows are rendered across the page (left to right) or down the page (top to bottom)?
2. When a custom row template is used to render a tabular form, the hidden columns (marked Edit=Y, Show=N on Report Attributes) are present in the markup even when they are not specified in the row template! i.e. the MRU process works. Of course, this is a good thing but I was curious to know what exactly controls this, what part of the report template controls where the hidden form elements are placed?
3. Any number/date formatting specified declaratively on the Column Attributes page appears to be taken into account when column values are substituted in the template using #COL# notation. But all the other Column Attributes are ignored (alignment, sum, show, link, etc). Is there a way to use the Link attribute to declaratively specify the link so the value of the column #COL# as seen by the report template includes the A tag?
Thanks

Table Rendering - Row level vs Column level

Normally renderers are specified for a given class of data or column of data.
So, how would you handle rendering requirements that are row or table dependent? For example, how do I:
a) color alternate lines in a table
b) change the border of the selected cell
Traditional Approach
Most answers in the forum would be something like "use a custom render". Sounds great, but what does it really mean? If all your data is displayed as a String then it really isn't too difficult to create a single renderer with the required logic and add it to the table as the default renderer.
However, what if you table contains, String's, Dates, Integer's, Double's and Boolean's and you want your cell to retain the default formatting of each data type in addition to the above requirement? Now you have two options:
a) render by class (multiple renderers). Each renderer would need to implement the default "formatting" of the data (dates: dd-MMM-yyy, numbers: right justified, etc) in addition to the "row/table" rendering requirements. So the answer really becomes "use five custom renderers". Now the "row/table" rendering code is found in 5 classes. Of course you could always move the "row/table" rendering code up to a common base class.
b) render by table (single renderer). A single custom renderer would be created and would need to implement the default "formatting" for all data types in the table, in addition to the "row/table" rendering. The benefit is that all the rendering code is in one class. An example solution is include for this approach.
Alternative Approach
I recently came across an approach where the "formatting" of the data is still done by the default renderers and the "row/table" rendering is done at the table level by overriding the prepareRenderer() method. This approach is much simpler, but the rendering is done in two different places. Is this a problem?
So, my question is which approach do you prefer:
a) Traditional Approach - multiple renderers
b) Triditional Approach - single renderer
c) Alternative Approach
Me, I like the alternative approach, but I'm more of a problem solver than I am a designer, so I don't know how the solution fits in a large scale application.
Hopefully your response will consider:
a) OO design principles
b) class reusability
c) class maintenance
d) anything else you can think of

}Before you make your final decision. What changes would be required for each solution in the following "what if " scenarios:
a) what if, you added a Boolean column to the table
b) what if, you added a second Double column to the table which should be formatted as a currency (ie. 1,234.5 --> $1,234.50).
Here is an example of a currency renderer:
class CurrencyRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer
     private NumberFormat formatter;
     public CurrencyRenderer()
          super();
          formatter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
          setHorizontalAlignment( SwingConstants.RIGHT );
     public void setValue(Object value)
          if ((value != null) && (value instanceof Number))
               value = formatter.format(value);
          super.setValue(value);
}

Report Row Template - header

Hi
I have made a custom "Report Row Template". I have write the "header" direct in the html code. Is that a problem if i want to translate the application? Is there a way how to use the headers from the apex?
Best Regrads
Jesper Vels

Hello Jesper,
OK, I can see now what you are trying to do. Unfortunately, the only similar example I'm familiar with - http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=11933:108 – Is also using hard coded text for the headings.
I can show you how to get to these headings, and how to use them on your template, but I'm afraid this is not a generic solution, as I couldn't find an active substitution string for the column headers.
As there isn't any variables to hold these column names, we need to define our own. You can do that using an application items or hidden page items. Let's say I defined three hidden items on my report page: P1_HD1, P1_HD2, P1_HD3. Each item will be defined with Source Type of SQL Query, and Source Use of "Only when …". The Source Value for the first item will be as follow:
select heading
from FLOWS_020200.APEX_APPLICATION_PAGE_RPT_COLS
where APPLICATION_ID=:APP_ID and
 PAGE_ID=:APP_PAGE_ID and
 DISPLAY_SEQUENCE = 1;The DISPLAY_SEQUENCE should change according to the sequence of the column.
If you choose to use an application items, you'll need to use a before header computation on your report page, with the same query, to populate the application items.
In order to use these items in the report template, we need to use the "&P1_HD1." notation. You can have something like this, for the first header in your report query:
<tr><td>&P1_HD1.: </td><td>#1#</td> . . .Hope this helps,
Arie.

Report Template - NULL in Row Template Condition

I just found a workaround, but,
in a report template, in a Row Template # Condition, based on a PL/SQL expression, the condition always fails if/when #COLUMN_VALUE# was NULL.
I worked around this with a NVL in the query - but, is there a better way?
I want the column highlighted when the value is null - to point out where values need to be entered - i.e. when the record needs to be updated.
THanks - Karen

Ok, I have since found out that the setting to make a report template
available in the Based on > Visualization templates is in the
'package.xml' file for each report. The value that needs to be changed
is <IsQueryParameterized>0</IsQueryParameterized> and change the 0 to 1.

You will need to create a custom renderer to display both an image and text. Renderers are assigned to a column. If you require different renderers for a given row in a column then you will need to override the getCellRenderer(...) method to return a renderer for the specific row.

Row template - WYSIWYG builder

Is there a easy (and free!) way to build a complex named column (i.e. specific row) template using some sort of WYSIWYG builder? For instance, an order invoice. This would have company logo, customer/address information in the header; order line items (repeated); followed by a footer type of data (e.g. customer service information)
Thanks for any ideas.

As far as a builder i dont have a good answer for you - mine has been typically stealing other people's layouts using firebug. I admit I have zero design ability and lets face it, somewhere somewhere else has already done it better than I could have.
Here is a sample template I use that you can have (you will obviously have to name your columns the same as mine, but a simple select from dual will do it for resting purposes). For anything that needs to span multiple rows (like order items, I just use a function to return a string with a html break element in it. I'm hoping I got everything correct - I had to adapt it slightly to take out stuff from the real template.:

Conditional display in the row template!

Hi,
I created a report template and my report shows like this:
col1 col2 col3 col4 col5
a 4 5 6 7
b 4 8 7 2
Total 8 13 13 9
I am able to display all the above, but the column name should be "Total" at the end of the report when i am displaying the totals. totals also coming from the database, so i am not calculating here.
Shall i put any condition saying that if the col1 is null then col1 should display "Total".
Please suggest.
Thank you.

Actually I used the row template conditions to solve that. But I have added one more count in the database package, that column is coming into the report attributes, not showing in the report. any ideas?
I am using like this #COL50#where are you using this? if you are using this in column conditions, it will not work
thank you,

Conditional bg color in row template

I created a new row template for my report but I get the following error when I include it in the report:
"Error ERR-1025 Error processing PLSQL expression. #missing_patches# = '-'"
In the row template itself, I used the following values ("missing_patches" is the conditional column in the report-query):
Row Template 1 (PL/SQL Expression): <td>bgcolor="yellow" #COLUMN_VALUE#</td>
Row Template 1 Expression: #missing_patches# = "-"
Row Template 2 (PL/SQL Expression): <td>bgcolor="red" #COLUMN_VALUE#</td>
Row Template 2 Expression: #missing_patches# <> "-"
Anybody an idea what I am missing? Thank you.
Thomas

Well, bgcolor should be inside the <td> tag, but bgcolor is depricated in HTML 4.x. You should really be using classes or inline styles.

Bug?: Tabular Form function "addRow" can't handle multi-line Row Templates

Hi all,
i created a custom Report Template (Named Column Row Template) which creates 2 lines per Record (which in fact is 2 rows in a HTML table).
In the APEX function initTabForm (apex_4_0.js) the sample row (f01_0000) is read and stored in gTabFormInitRow
This is done by using a jQuery Selector like this: jQuery('#init_row_'+pRegionID) which returns only the first row of my multiline record.
Is this behaviour intended or is it a bug? Or do i have to change my HTML structure?
brgds,
Peter

Hi Marc,
thanks for the quick reply.
I was afraid you would say it is intended behavior :-)
A table per row has the disadvantage of loosing the automatic column width, i would have to set the column width to a fixed value to maintain a nice look.
Well, thanks for the moment, i'll try to find a general solution and (if i succeed) get back to you.
brgds,
Peter
