Text element in smart form

hi experts,
I am changing a standard smartform. The new requirment is I have to display a new text element for which the value come from a table depending on the input.
I worte a fm to get the value and i am catching the export param of the fm into a variable which I am catching into a text element. The FM is returning the correct value but I am not able to display it on the smartfomr out put. Please help me.

Check your text element's output options:
Select your text element... Go to Output Options... in the frame at last "Output Structure" you can see the line and columns. Check if this lines and columns are being used by anyother text element.

No new editor for Text elements in Smart forms

Hello all,
I've a problem on SAP demo system (version 7.2). When I add new Text element on window then on tab General Attributes I'm only able to see ComboBoxes for "Text Type", "Start", button pencil (for going into fullscreen old editor) and button for checking object. The last thing is that I can also see here label "Use the fullscreen text editor". When I've checked on other systems I saw that instead of that label there is new editor here, and clicking on pencil button leads to new fullscreen editor.
Does anybody know where I can enforce smartforms builder to use new editor?
Best regards
Marcin Cholewczuk

Hello Marcin,
Is the text edit portion showing as disabled?
FYI i don't have MS Office installed on my frontend & in my case the text edit is disabled. Is this the case with you as well

Text issue in Smart form

Hi All,
I have an Custom smart form, and under the pages and windows i have 2 Pages First Page and Next page.
The First Page next page is set as Next Page and the second page next page is also set as Next page.
Now when the Smart form is displayed in the PDF Format then only the first page Header comes in the proper way but the 2nd , 3rd and so on pages depending upon the data the Headers are all coming as an Junk text (Not some other language but the overlapping of characters).
The Header texts are all in the Table in the header field and also some texts are dynamically populated by the OTR and some are static.
I am not sure why is this happening can any one give me some inputs?
Regards,
Dipu

Exactly thats what i am using now but want to know whether is it possible by using TEXT instead of creating Graphics node.
In graphics we can use both .bmp as well as .tif files but not text.So what is the solution of using TEXT Ids in Smart forms.
Thanks for all your answers but still i didn't get the solution to my problem.

How to call text editors in smart forms?

In my module pool program,I included text editors for three fields.I want that fields in smart forms too.I need to know how these text editors are called in smart forms?

Hi achu,
Any text that gets saved has a corresponding entry in table STXH table. It usually has the following parameters : TDOBJECT,TDNAME,TDID and TDSPRAS.
What you have to do is create a new text element and under general attributes ---> Type - give Include Text.
And in the include text you give the above four parameters which correspond to the text you want to display.
P.S. Do not forget to check the 'No error if no text exists' checkbox.
Hope this helps.

Hi Manisha,
It is looking very strange. But still try to do following may be helpfull.
1. First activate your smart form after declaring the variable in Global definition. Then try to drag n drop from Field list
2. Or else click on Editor tab of Text node, Then Goto-> change editor (You will get a editor same as Sapscripts)
put the variable like that:
HT : &W_TOTAL-MASSG&
Try this. Best luck...

The best technique to allow user to enter text in a smart form.

I have created a smartform based on a sales order. Now in one section of the form, the user will have to type out a text or include an existing text based on certain parameters like plant (t001w-werks) which may vary for the sales orders. I want to know the best possible way to go about with this.
Thanks,
Bindu.

Hi,
Create 'Program lines' and write a condition based on plant and assign the required text to a vairable. Display the variable as text element.
Program lines:
IF ITAB-WERKS = '1001'.
      g_f_text = 'ABC'.
ELSE.
     g_f_text = 'EFG'.
ENDIF.
Text element:
   G_F_TEXT.

Smart Forms: u0080(EUR)-symbol in text - #-symbol in Smart Forms

Hello,
If a user writes the (EUR)-symbol in a text (e.g. positions-text in an order, VA01) the Smart Form shows a #-symbol.
Does anyone know the reason for this behavior and how to correct it?
Best regards,
Stefan

Hi,
I tryed it with <156> and it worked. The problem is that you have to write it directly with the line-editor, which is not very confortable for the users.
If you write it diretly in the text-field the <156> will be masked to
<(><<)>156>
Thank you,
Stefan

How to print BAR code in SMART Form

Hi All,
I have the requirement to print BAR CODE in Smartforms.
For this, I create a character format with Bar code in style forms and create a text element in Smart form and associate bar code character format with this text element.
Now when I look the print preview for the data, then it shows me data in bar code format but not in right format i.e. its shows me all the similar block in bar code.
If you look the bar code in SAP script, its always show you bar code with similar block, but in SMART FORM it will show you exact bar code; as in SAP Script, bar code is generated at printer end and in SMARTFORM bar code is generated as graphic in SAP and then sent to printer for print.
PLease let me know, why in SMARTFORM its not showing BAR CODE in correct format in print preview.
Thanks
Piyush Mathur

Hi,
To Create a Bar code prefix:
1) Go to T-code - SPAD -> Full Administration -> Click on Device Type -> Double click the device for which you wish to create the print control -> Click on Print Control tab ->Click on change mode -> Click the plus sign to add a row or prefix say SBP99 (Prefix must start with SBP) -> save you changes , it will ask for request -> create request and save
2) Now when you go to SE73 if you enter SBP00 for you device it will add the newly created Prefix
Create a character format C1.Assign a barcode to the character format.Check the check box for the barcode.
The place where you are using the field value use like this
<C1> &itab-field& </C1>.
You will get the field value in the form of barcode.
Which barcode printer are you using ? Can you download this file and see.
http://www.servopack.de/Files/HB/ZPLcommands.pdf.
It will give an idea about barcode commands.

Detailed information about SAP Barcodes
A barcode solution consists of the following:
- a barcode printer
- a barcode reader
- a mobile data collection application/program
A barcode label is a special symbology to represent human readable information such as a material number or batch number
in machine readable format.
There are different symbologies for different applications and different industries. Luckily, you need not worry to much about that as the logistics supply chain has mostly standardized on 3 of 9 and 128 barcode symbologies - which all barcode readers support and which SAP support natively in it's printing protocols.
You can print barcodes from SAP by modifying an existing output form.
Behind every output form is a print program that collects all the data and then pass it to the form. The form contains the layout as well as the font, line and paragraph formats. These forms are designed using SAPScript (a very easy but frustratingly simplistic form format language) or SmartForms that is more of a graphical form design tool.
Barcodes are nothing more than a font definition and is part of the style sheet associated with a particular SAPScript form. The most important aspect is to place a parameter in the line of the form that points to the data element that you want to represent as barcode on the form, i.e. material number. Next you need to set the font for that parameter value to one of the supported barcode symbologies.

It is possible to write abap programming lines in text element

Hi experts,

The lines on the DIO port respond to trhe MOMO (Must On, Must Off) protocol which is a tri state protocol. This allows each line on the DIO ports to be used individually. The lines, however, are by default static DIO which means that if you want to create a pulse train in them you must do it through a software routine where you change the states every time the set dio port momo call is executed. Another option is to use the PWM ouptut lines available on this port. You can use the lines specified as PWM outputs (check the 7344 hardware manual for this) so that in MAX you can generate a continous pulse train and then you can use NI-Motion's PWM fucntions to control the frequency and duty cycle of the train.

Can we reduce the SIZE of the text in TEXT Module?..Smart form

Hello,
Can we reduce the size of the TEXT module in Smart form.
As the text that I am putting in the Text Module is taking more space and it is displaying in the next page.
What are the steps that I can take to display the text in the same page.
Regards,
Kittu

Hi,
you can do these by two ways,
1-> By reducing the font size
2-> reducing the line spacing
both can be adjust in Smart Style what you are using.
If you not using any style for this, default style will take.
Bye
