Saving report layout views without saving the filter criteria.

We have a requirement from the client where after the user changes the layout of a report (ex. by adding/removing characteristics), the user wants to save the layout of the report without saving the filters of report.
I have two scenarios where I can get this to work.
1. Pressing the u2018Save Viewu2019 button in the web report. And changing the query in Query Designer so that it does not have any filter variables in the u2018Default Valueu2019 section (all filters have to be in the u2018Characteristic Restrictionu2019 section). And in WAD turn 'On' the setting for u2018Reset Variable Values to Defaultu2019. I do not want to use this method because it means I have to change all queries that are in production.
2. The second way I get it to work is by Pressing the u2018Save Viewu2019 button and forcing the query to use a customized web template that references a master web template. In WAD neither the parent nor child web template has u2018Reset Variable Values to Defaultu2019 set to 'On', it is set to 'Off (Default)'. I would like to figure out why this method works because no changes need to be made to the queries (filters can be on either side, u2018Characteristic Restrictionsu2019 or u2018Default Valuesu2019). I do not want to use this customized web template for all queries because there are special layouts and labels that are not needed for the all other reports.
So I know that there is a solution on the web template side, but Iu2019m not sure where the solution is. I want to figure out why scenario 2 works, and apply that to the default web template that runs for all queries. I compared the setting of both templates and I cannot find a difference. Please help!!
We are running:
SAP BW 7.0 Service Pack 22
Web Application Designer 7.0
Query Designer 7.0
Thanks in advance, Points will be awarded!!

Hi Sathish!
If your table data is less than 3 pages (2 pages) then new section will start from 3rd page only.
Each table is less than one page actually. But as I wrote the 2-nd section starts from the 2-nd page (what is excellent), but the 3-rd section starts from the 2-nd page as well (right after the 2-nd section), but not from the 3-rd page.
If each table in section is with different format , it is good to go with TAB wise tables.
Could you give any link where I could read about the TAB wise tables? Not sure I am familiar with it.
Thank you!

Attribute "Report Layout" is missing in the "Print Attributes" tab for IR

Hallo,
The attribute “Report Layout” is missing in the “Print Attributes” tab for an interactive report?
How to alter the report layout (xsl-fo) of an interactive report?
Has someone any idea where to configure this?
Btw, for the "classic" SQL Report the XSL-FO "Report Layout" can be cahnged in "Print Attributes" and this works fine for me. But I want to change the xsl-fo for the interactive report.
"If you do not select a report layout, a default XSL-FO layout is used. The default XSL-FO layout is always used for rendering Interactive Report regions. ... Unlike classic reports, the Interactive Report Print Attributes can only utilize the default XSL-FO layout and is initiated from the Report Attributes, Download section rather than directly from this screen. Once configured, these attributes only apply only to the current region and cannot be used outside the context of the region."
http://apex.oracle.com/i/doc/bldapp_rpt_print.htm
How can the "default XSL-FO layout" be changed?
Changing is necessary because the Apache FOP 1.0 reports the following error (for the transmitted default XSL-FO):
"fo:simple-page-master", "fo:region-body" must be declared before "fo:region-before"
http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/#fo_region-before
The default report layout is not saved in:
select * from APEX_040000.WWV_FLOW_REPORT_LAYOUTS
Thx, Willi

I've found two workaround for getting Apache FOP 1.0 to work with Oracle Apex 4.0 for PDF printing of interactive reports:
1, Use an application process to set your custom layout for interactive reports:
[ ] grant all on APEX_040000.WWV_RENDER_REPORT3 to {YOUR_SCHEMA_NAME};
[ ] Create an Application Process e.g. "Custom Report Layout" with constraint for request 'PDF' and Process Text:
declare
v_xsl varchar2(32767);
begin
v_xsl := '<?xml version = ''1.0'' encoding = ''utf-8''?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
<fo:region-body region-name="region-body" margin-top="54.0pt" margin-bottom="54.0pt"/>
<fo:region-before region-name="region-header" extent="54.0pt"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>';
APEX_040000.WWV_RENDER_REPORT3.g_prn_template := v_xsl;
end;2, If you have some knowlege in Java change the sequnce of the the nodes in the apex_fop.jsp (or servlet), ie. changing the xsl before you use it for transformation.
The code depends on the solution you are using to parse the xsl string.
Hope this may help someone,
Willi

How to update view without modifying the base table ?

Hi Experts , I need help in two qurstions
1. How to update a view without modifying the base table ?
2. How to write a file unix operating system in pl/sql ? is there any built in procedure is there ?
Thank you

Hi,
I'm not sure what you're asking in either question. It would help if you gave a specific example of what you want to do.

1. How to update a view without modifying the base table ?You can't.
Views don't contain any data; they just query base tables.
You can change the definition of a view (CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW ...) so that it appears that the base table(s) have changed; that won't change the base tables.
2. How to write a file unix operating system in pl/sql ? is there any built in procedure is there ?The package utl_file has routines for working with files.

Altering the report's format without destroying the report layout....{solv}

Hi,
I have developed a tabular report and the layout (lines, rectangles... etc as customer wants) ....
Now , i want to alter only the report style.... that is to change it to group left....
Is it possible... to select the group fields and the fields displayed in the report without redeveloping the report UI (lines , rectangles... e.t.c).
I have tried the report wizard... but the layout destroyed... and have to do the UI from the beginning.....
NOTE : I use Dev10g
Thanks ,
Sim

Hi Sim,
Group Left or Group Above means that you are grouping for 1 or more fields.
In the Data model, you will have to create a new group and drag the group fields to this new group.
In the Layout, you will need to add a new repeating frame below all the other repeating frame, frames, etc. ie. create a repeating frame over existing objects. You may need to move all existing objects down and to the right so that there is enough room to create a new repeating frame over these objects. With the repeating frame selected, from the Arrange Menu, select Send to back (F6) or Move Backwards (F8) several times so that the new repeating frame is below all the objects from the tabular layout.
Also, fix up the source property for the repeating frame. Create a new field(s) inside this new repeating frame for your group left field(s).
Good luck.

Can you select the row in a table view without highlighting the cell?

I have an an app with a table view which is presented modally. Cell selections in this table are saved in the parent controller so that they can be reselected if the table is reloaded after being dismissed.
When the cell is first highlighted, I want to momentarily highlight the cell and have it fade out, which I do by unselecting the cell from the modal view controller's didSelectRowAtIndexPath by calling setSelected:animated on the table view cell.
However, when I present the table view controller modally again and want to display the previously selected cell as selected, I don't want the cell background to be highlighted, and I'm having trouble doing this.
In order to make sure the table view knows the cell is selected, I am calling selectRowAtIndexPath. I need to make sure the cell is selected so that I can set/unset the cell's accessoryType. However, this has the sideeffect of highlighting the cell too, which looks weird and confusing to the user.
I've tried things like temporarily setting the cell's selection style to none, but while that stops the cell background from highlighting? I've tried setting the selectionStyle to UITableViewSelectionStyleNone, but while this prevents the cell background from highlighting, the cell text still changes to white, so it the text is invisible against the white background.
Is there a easy way of setting a cell to selected in the table view without also changing the highlight and text colour of the actual cell? Immediately setting the cell to be unselected still makes the highlight visible for a split second.

I tried that, but setting the highlighted property doesn't seem to affect it.
I figured out how what I was doing wrong though. I was setting selection style UITableViewSelectionStyleNone, selecting the cell, then setting the selection style back to whatever it had previously been. This causes the background not to draw highlighted, but the text and accessory type to still draw highlighted.
In order to fix this, I moved the code to set the cell selection style to whatever it had previously been to the didDeselectRowAtIndexPath method.

Reporting User Views without Quiz

I am attempting to record user views through Acrobat.com and the Quiz Results Analyzer without including a Quiz in my lesson. I create tutorial lessons that do not require the user to do anything except watch the demonstration.
I currently use the "Project End: Send Email To" function to generate an email for the user to send - but this requires user cooperation and therefore does not provide a complete tracking. I cannot figure out how to setup the Quiz Reporting without including the actual quiz - or if this is even an option.
Let me know if you have any ideas!

Well, now that you question it...maybe I shouldn't be so sure!
However, I think I just misremembered as to why it won't work...
When you report to Acrobat.com, a 'Post Results' button is added to the quiz summary slide.
If you don't use quiz slides, you don't get to see a quiz summary slide.
Without a quiz summary slide, you don't have a way to post results to Acrobat.com...
(right? or maybe there is a workaround for getting a quiz summary slide to show when using just custom-scored interactions?)
I know in the past I've tested the Quiz Results Analyzer and it indeed showed interaction data, though the reports were somewhat lacking. That was back with CP5...and that I had to use quiz slides...

You want to press Alt+I to jump to a certain column in a "data grid"? Is this for ASP.Net, Windows Forms or WPF? In Winforms, there is the old DataGrid and the newer DataGridView. Which one do you use?
Are you referring to a combo box inside a DataGridView or a standalone Combobox?

Pager app that can be viewed without unlocking the phone

I am looking for a pager app where the pages can be viewed without a person unlocking the phone or knowing the passcode to unlock. A doctor I work for wants his pages to come through to hs phone, but he doesn't want the nurses and others who check the pages for him to be able to go through his phone and see his personal information such as texts and emails. Is there any kind of app that would allow viewing of only the pages sent to him without unlocking the phone and giving multiple people access to any information in the phone? Currently, he just carries a pager as well as his phone which is not ideal. Thank you!

Hey guy;
I have the same problem and I do anything you can imagine. If you leave your phone about two or three days and after that plug in it your phone will be power on but your problem doesn't fix. I tried to restore as a new phone, reset all my settings and also I contacted Apple Support but I couldn't fix it. I think that it would be a software issue because it occurred right after iOS 6.1.3 update. It look likes that we have only two choice. First choice is waiting until Apple release next iOS update and check it in our phones, and the other choice is visiting an Apple retail store to diagnostic our phones for hardware issue.

How to create "Filter- Render- Clouds" without using the filter....?

Hi,
I'm trying to do something and it would take forever to explain. So I'll simplify my question, and I hope you guys know how to do this.
I want to create the same effects the filter called "Clouds" creates. This filter is found in the "Render" sub-menu under "Filter".
I've tried creating Noise, and then bluring it. I've tried painting blobs of white on black, blurring it, then using the "Sponge" filter with no luck.
So, again, a way to create the same effect using any method besides "Clouds" filter... to make it look near or very near to what the "Clouds" filter creates, without using that particular filter. I've spent about 3 hours attempting this with no luck.
Thanks so much!

Actually, it is not that hard to create clouds from scratch. The secret is to look at lots of real clouds to see how they work. But you can create some pretty good clouds with the render Clouds filter. Start with a canvas way bigger than your target image, and fill with the Render Clouds filter. Then use Free Transform to flatten and reshape it. Also use FT to add LOTS of perspective if you want to get that UltraWide lens look.
Where Render Clouds and FT falls short is that real clouds are layered, and surprisingly dark on their shadow side. But it is still doable with Dodge Burn and multiple cloud layers.
Not quite the sme thing, but I saw a really cool tutorial using clouds on Planet Photoshop a while back. Definitely worth a look at.

Is There A Way To Republish A Report In CMC Without Deleting The Object?

We're using Business Objects Enterprise 11.5 to manage over 700 reports. Right now, whenever a user requests a change to a report (which happens several times a week) we go into CMC and delete the object completely, and create a new one. This seems pretty wasteful.
It seems to me like there should be some "Browse" function somewhere that would allow us to grab an updated .rpt file and replace the current one, but for the life of me I can't find it.

That's a pretty lousy design IMO.
No comment
Crystal Reports needs to connect to the CMS, which by default listens on 6400. You can't force it to use another port, unless the CMS also listens on that port.
As for your IT dept not wanting that port open, the Import Wizard, Publishing Wizard, every client tool needs to connect to the CMS on this port (or the port the CMS listens on).
The gist is that Crystal Reports will have to connect to the CMS on 6400 (in your case).

Not to hide the report when after applying in the filter

Hi Experts,
I have created the two reports in one tab one is present year report and another one is previous year report,In this the present year is should Get view and previous year report used by collapsible (+) in css style i have given as display:none It is fine ..
But I need that If we select any filter in the Previous year report and giving Apply it should not get minimize.
Please give me a good solution for this task...
Thanks,
Raju

Aravind,
I agree with your answer,This will possible only when we have same table for the same section,but i am using two different table and two different sections.
For eg:If we change in the first filter it will get affect in the second filter.so only i used two different tables to get present year and previous year result in single tab.
Thanks,
Raju

Clear the Filter Criteria from java code programmatically

Hi All,
I am using jdev version 11.1.1.6.0.
I do have ADF table for which I have added filter to each column .
I created table using java class data control.
Filter is working Fine .
My use case is-
When I click on search button data is populated in table.
When anybody enters filter value in column suppose product and hit enter ,it filters data.
if he clears and do not hit enter key and search again then it does not show all data it only show filtered data.
So how can I programmatically clear all filters so on click of search it will show all the values not filtered values.
I have not used default Filter Behavior.
Please check below code for reference

Filter criteria needs to be saved as variant??

Hi All,
what i need to know is that is it possible to save the filter criteria in BW reports as a variant ( Like R/3) for future references?
Need your advise please.
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
Once you have saved a RKF, it would be available in the query designer on the left top above the normal key figures, you can drag and drop them either in the rows or columns depending on the requirements of the report and then see the result on execution of the query.
Assign points if useful

Adding "Filter Criteria" to the XSLT List View Web Part impact on "Export to Excel" functionality within Document Library

Hi there,
XSLT List View displaying all the list items within the Document Library. In order to implement the Search functionality within Document library out of box "Text Filter" web part is configured as explained below. The solution is similar to
the one suggested at
http://www.wonderlaura.com/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=77
"Text Filter" Web Part added to the page.
Filter Criteria (i.e., XSLT List View columns) added to the XSLT List View where the filter parameters take the input from the "Text Filter" Web Part .
3. Both Web Parts (XSLT List View and the Text Filter) are connected.
When the search criteria is entered into the "Text Filter" Web Part, it is passed to the relevant Columns of the XSLT List View and the documents (List Items) that match the search criteria are shown within XSLT List View.
Search functionality working as expected.
Query: Selecting the "Export to Excel" icon from the ribbon generates the excel spread sheet with no data except Column Titles from the Document library. In the investigation it is
found that adding the 'Filter Criteria' on XSLT List View is causing this bug. When the Filter Criteria is removed, then "Export to Excel" functionality is working as expected.
But it is mandatory to add "Filter Criteria" to implement the search functionality with in the document library.
Help: Help/input appreciated on the work around to get the "Export to Excel" functionality work when the "Filter Criteria"
exist on the XSLT List View.
Regards,

Once again thanks very much for your help Scott. very much appreciated.
In the investigation it is found that removing the 'Filter Criteria' on XSLT List View makes the "Export to Excel" functionality work. But the 'Filter Criteria' is mandatory to get the 'Document Search' functionality.
I think that due to technical limitations it should be concluded that 'only custom development can make all work, no code solutions using the SharePoint Designer can meet all the requirements.
If you can think of any alternative solution that could help in resolving the current issue or fix the issue without any custom implementation please inform. Otherwise this issue would be marked as resolved with your suggested response.
Regards,
