Script problem in main window

Hi,
In main window there is box at the bottom of the page which is used for totals and the space before it is used for items. I want the items to go to next page instead of overwriting on the totals . please help

Hi,
You can use
/: bottom
/: endbottom
command in the main window and put the box and the totals in that so they will be printed at the end of the page with out any overlapping of the items

Problem with sap script table in main window

hi all,
i have created a sap script for which output is in 7 pages.
except first page all the remaining pages are giving the correct output.
the problem with the first page is iam not not getting vertical lines in the table which is in the main window of page 1.
iam getting the vertical lines correctly in the mainwindow table of all the remaining pages.

Hi,
It's simple,
Pre- U should had declared a second page for the same window with header, main & footer.
now
First when u r looping the internal table provide no of rows eg Row 1 TO 10. in the Loop ( Data Tab)
or
when defing TEXT Go to PC Editor and mention all the fields Under PROTECT - ENDPROTECT.
This would solve the issue.
Thanks

Script - Space in Main window

Hi all,
    I have designed main window as such it matches the statinary requirements.   the mainwindow has BOX command so it is like table of 2 rows and 5 columns.
The database fields present in the script gets displayed on the mainwindow , only 7 rows gets displayed on the mainwindow , but still there is enough space as it can accomodate about 12 rows . But once the   data reaches 7 rows it jumps of to the other page .
I tried checking all the things but iam not able to figure it out. If i try increasing the size of main window the BOX alignment gets ruptured and it overlaps with the other window below it. The problem is space inside the main window is empty
If any one has a slight knowledge about this please let me know
I will paste the code present in the text element   for the line items.
==================================================
/     <b>THIS LINE IS BLANK</b>
/:     SET DATE MASK = 'MM/DD/YYYY'.
/:     PROTECT
T1     &REGUP-BELNR(13)&,,&REGUP-BLDAT(6)&&REGUP-BLDAT&,,
=       &REGUD-DMBTR(13R)&,,&REGUD-SKNTO&,,&REGUD-NETTO&
/:      ENDPROTECT
==================================================
Please do let me know about this .
Waiting for ur replies
Regards,
Shuja

hii shuja ,
PROTECT
determine that a paragraph must not be separated by a page break. The lines in this command are printed together on one page. If the space is enough on current page, then all the lines are printed on current page. If, however the space is not sufficient the PROTECT command works as a NEW-PAGE.
SO remove PROTECT ENDPROTECT and try ..also check by increasing size of main window.

Problem with Main window in smartforms

Hi All,
I am creating a smartform, in that i need to restrict the no. of line item is to 15 and i need to draw a box for it.

But i need to draw a box for 15 line items constantly at any given point of time irrespective of no. of line items. I am displaying this info using mail window, plz do help me.

Hi,
First describe your internal table and based on that you deifne another internal table in which you will have some 2 dummy fileds
suppose if you internal table has 10 lines then you need to have 5 more lined to print right?
say describe lines is v_lines
v_rem = v_lines mod 15. (you will get remainder here)
then v_count = 15 - v_rem.
before main window do code as following .
do v_count times.
v_dummy1 = text (maintgain soem text in this field)
v_dummy2 will not have any value.
append these values to it_dummy table.
enddo.
And when you loop main table count one more variable say v_cnt.
Now you can loop your dummy internal table based on condition.
the condition would be v_cnt eq v_lines .
and print empty text . dont print the field that have some text.
loop dummy table only after printing main table data in the main window.
Hope you got the logic
Dont forget to reward points

Smartform - problem with main window

Hi all,
I have following windows in my smartform first page.
First Page
-> secondary window 1
-> secondary window 2
-> main window
       1 template1
       2 template2
       3 command node
-> secondary window 3
I have the same windows in my next page. I am using the command node in main window for some specific condition to implement page break to next page. I am getting the next page with all the contents from the secondary windows but for some reason the main window in second page is not diplayed.
Please help me. Waiting....

Hi Raju,
One possible solution can be... first fix number of rows in a page. Then in the INITILIZATION use DESCRIBE command on your internal table. Then divide the number of lines by the number of line you have already fixed to be printed on a page. This will give the number of pages.
Now what you can do is... in your first page take a table node. In that create a table line with 13 columns and place the first 13 columns in that.
Then take a ALTERNATIVE node with condition sy-page = the number of pages which you have already calculated.
For this ALTERNATIVE node in the TRUE node take a COMMAND NODE with NEXT_PAGE(second page) in GO-TO-NEW-PAGE field.
And in the FALSE node take another COMMAND NODE with FIRST_PAGE(current page) in the GO-TO-NEW-PAGE field.
Untill unless you will reach the last page(which we have calculated) this condition will become false and hence the COMMAND NODE in the FALSE node will trigger and the current page will be triggered. This completes the printing of 13 columns for all your internal table rows.
Now in the NEXT_PAGE(second page) take another TABLE node and again create a new table line with the next 13 columns(14 to 26). And assign NEXT_PAGE in the Next Page field of this page(next page... hope you are not confused ). This will print the remaininig 13 lines.
But the problem with this solution is that the user has to sort the pages after getting the printouts and also the number of rows that will be printed are fixed on a page.
Thanks and Regards,

Dynamic Stamp Java Script Problem (8.0 Windows)

I have created a dynamic stamp for my engineering firm, but I am having one problem. The stamp is a date stamp with other information and I need the date to look like this:
JUL 10 2008
However, I can only get the first letter ('J') to be capitalized. Is there a way to alter the custom scripting to enable me to get all three letters of the month capitalized?
Thank you in advance for any responses...

Thank you for the post, but...
how do you get the "mmm" part to all be capital letters? As it stands, my date stamp looks like this:
Jul 10 2008

What is the use of MAIN WINDOW in SCRIPTS

what is the use of MAIN WINDOW in SCRIPTS, y we con't create a script w/o main window.
Title was edited by:
Alvaro Tejada Galindo

Hi
See this
What are the different types of windows in SAP Scripts?
Windows are defined in the Layout sets which define the position and the text to displayed.
The different types of windows are:
MAIN - Main Window
The main window is a continous window which can extend over several pages. If the text in the main window fills up a page, a new page is created.
Only one main window can be defined in the SAP Script whereas upto 100 instances of main window can be created in a page.
VAR - Variable Window
This window can have the variable contents displayed on them. The contents of the window cannot exceed the window size. The content can be formatted for each page.
CONST - Constant Window
The constant window can have a fixed content and is formatted only once.
Main Windows (MAIN)
Each form must have one window of type MAIN. Such a window is called the main window of the form. For SAPscript forms, the main window has a central meaning:
It controls the page break.
It contains the text body that may cover several pages.
It allows to fix text elements at the upper and lower margins of the allocated page window (for example, for column headings).
As soon as a window of type MAIN is full, SAPscript automatically triggers a page break and continues to output the remaining text in the main window of the subsequent page. Page windows of type MAIN have the same width throughout the form. The SAPscript composer thus avoids reformatting of the text after each page break.
Variable Windows (VAR)
The contents of variable windows is processed again for each page, on which the window appears. The system outputs only as much text as fits into the window. Text exceeding the window size is truncated; the system does not trigger a page break. Unlike constant windows, the page windows declared as variable windows may have different sizes on different form pages.
Constant Windows (CONST)
Starting with Release 4.0, the system internally processes windows of type CONST similar to windows of type VAR. Therefore, if you create a new window, always use type VAR.

Tab setting in the main window sapscript table

Hi ,
i have one problem ,i am doveloping new script.in the main window having 5 column table .the table col size is grater than the populated field size.main problem is these values are not populated in the middle of the every column of the table.
to achive this how to set the tabsettings?
please sent the solution for this asap.
Thanking u.

Hi SS,
U can do that by giving the alignment (Right,Left,Center Alignment) in the Pragraph format and also in Character format.......
any of the format you can choose....
as for as tab is concern you must have the size of the value which you want to populate...
accordingly you have to give the tab size in paragraph format...
thnx

Main window box is not extended

Hi Experts ,
I am working scripts. In main window I draw box , using below box command.
BOX XPOS '0.0' CM YPOS '0.0' CM WIDTH '3' CM HEIGHT '1' CM FRAME 10 TW
BOX XPOS '0.0' CM YPOS '0.0' CM WIDTH '6' CM HEIGHT '1' CM FRAME 10 TW
BOX XPOS '0.0' CM YPOS '0.0' CM WIDTH '10' CM HEIGHT '1' CM FRAME 10 TW
BOX XPOS '0.0' CM YPOS '0.0' CM WIDTH '13' CM HEIGHT '1' CM FRAME 10 TW
BOX XPOS '0.0' CM YPOS '0.0' CM WIDTH '16' CM HEIGHT '1' CM FRAME 10 TW
My issues is , when Item line is one, it is working fine.
But if item lines 2 to 10 records, My box was not extended.
So please give me solution.
Thanks,

point 1, wrong forum, see the moderator message right on top of this forum.
2. well you are drawing hard coded boxes of height 1 and various width´s.
Sure the will come only for item 1, for item 2 you´d have to draw new own boxes.
Since you cannot be sure about the height of a position, you had to code these dynamically, which is possible but quite a task.
Anyway it is NOT advicable to work with boxes on line-item level. at least not with SAP-Script.
with smartforms you have an easy time doing this, while in SAP-Script you may come quite near to desperation.

Grouping in main window

Hi experts..
I am working on SCRIPTS.
I am looping my internal table in main window to print fields of main window.
my main window fields are--
box_id   pack_id sales order duty_code   box_wt.
but one more field is there..ie DEST_CODE, its CHAR type.
but i want to group my internal table records according to DEST_CODE.
means..on o/p form fields should b displayed---
dest_code = '--'
box_id   pack_id sales order duty_code   box_wt.
my all fields are get printed..
but can some body tell me "how to group my internal table records, according to one specific field"
when that DEST_CODE will change,
those records group must b different.
thanks i advance

Hi,
1. U declare the first field as 'DEST_CODE' in ur Internal Table.
2. Now, u SORT the internal table on DEST_CODE.
3. LOOP ur Internal Table & use control break events for grouping based on DEST_CODE.
Eg:
In Driver/Print Program:
   LOOP AT itab.
     at new DEST_CODE.
        call function 'WRITE_FORM'.
            exporting
               element = 'E1'
               window = 'MAIN'.
        endfunction.
     endat.
     call function 'WRITE_FORM'.
        exporting
           element = 'E2'
           window = 'MAIN'.
    endfunction.
ENDLOOP.
In Script Form: in Main Window
/E    E1                                             --> Calling Element E1 to print Dest_CODE
P1   &itab-DEST_CODE&                   --> Printing DEST_CODE once for every new DEST_CODE
/E    E2                                             --> Calling Element E1 to print Dest_CODE to print other details
P1   &itab-box_id&,,&itab-pack_id&,,&itab-sales_order&,,&duty_code&,,&box_wt&.
Hope its clear!!

Main window of SAPScript versus Main window of smartform

Hi,
In case of Smartform we have one main window per page but in case of SAP Script we can have 0 to 99 Main window on one page.
In case of smartform if the main window on one page gets filled then the remaining long text will jump on main window of second page.
Following are my doubts:
If I define three MAIN windows for three different kind of long texts on page one in SAP Script as follows:
MAIN Window 1 - Long text1
Main Window 2 - Long text2
Main Window 3 - Long text3
1) If the long text 1 on MAIN window 1 of first page gets full does it automatically jump to Main Window 2 of first page ?
2) If I don't want the long text on Main Window 1 to jump on Main window 2 on first page but on Main winodw 1 of next page , is it possible ? How do I do it ?
Answers will be rewarded..
Tushar.

In SAPScripts if the long text is filled in the Main Window it will spill over into the same Main Window if it is defined in the next page. Text from one Main Window will nt spill over onto the text to different Main window.
So as far as you questions are concerned:
1. Not it does not automatically jump over into Main Window 2 from Main Window 1 on same page or next page.
2. You just need to define the Same Main Window on the next page so that text gets jumped over to the next page. If it is possible just define the next page as the same page, so that you do not have to create a separate page and attach all the windows.
Hope this helps you...

What exactly is the diff between main window and variable window

what exactly is the diff between main window and variable window in SAP script?

hi,
MAIN WINDOW :- In a main window you display text and data, which can cover several pages (flow text). As soon as a main window is completely filled with text and data, the system continues displaying the text in the main window of the next page. It automatically triggers the page break.
You can define only have one window in a form as main window.
The main window must have the same width on each page, but can differ in height.
A page without main window must not call itself as next page, since this would trigger an endless loop. In such a case, the system automatically terminates after three pages.
VARIABLE WINDOW :- The contents of variable windows is processed again for each page, on which the window appears. The system outputs only as much text as fits into the window. Text exceeding the window size is truncated; the system does not trigger a page break. Unlike constant windows, the page windows declared as variable windows may have different sizes on different form pages.
As far as the processing of the window contents is concerned, the system currently treats constant and variable windows alike. The only difference is that constant windows have the same size throughout the form.
hope this will be useful.
If useful then reward points.
with regards,
Syed
