Tooltip in BI Reports

Hi All,
We are publishing the BI Reports in Portal 7.0 using the Bex Application Designer 3.5
Every report contains headers. When the mouse is placed on the headers, the tooltip is displayed as follows :
"Context Menu for + header name".
I want to change this tooltip i.e. in the Report itself I want to give a more descriptive text for the tooltip.
Can someone tell me how to do this.
Points assured for any help.
Regards
Nikhil

Hi All,
Can someone reply to this ques. It is really urgent.

Tooltip for IR report(Apex 3.2)header column

Hello Everyone,
I need help in setting up a tooltip for report hearder in interactive reports. I tried the following methods:
1) By assigning a div title for column Deptno(This code is taken from the html source of IR report column):
<th id="DEPTNO" >
<div id="apexir_DEPTNO" onclick="gReport.controls.widget(this.id)" style="">
Deptno
<div title="Tooltip text for first div">&lt/div>
</div>&lt/th>
2) With javascript & css : I put the following line on report header edit section:
< a class="tooltip" href="#">Tooltip<span>This is the crazy little Easy Tooltip Text.</span></a>
Nothing really solved my problem. Is there any easy way of resolving the above issue?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
Blog post example do not work with APEX 3.2
By default on APEX 3.2 you do not have jQuery and dynamic actions.
You can do same with APEX 3.2 if you use htmldbQuery plugin
http://sourceforge.net/projects/htmldbquery/
Integrate plugin and jQuery to APEX
Then create page process before regions
DECLARE
l_sql VARCHAR2(32700);
BEGIN
l_sql := '
SELECT COLUMN_ALIAS,
    HELP_TEXT
   FROM APEX_APPLICATION_PAGE_IR_COL
WHERE APPLICATION_ID = :APP_ID
    AND PAGE_ID = :APP_PAGE_ID
    AND HELP_TEXT IS NOT NULL
HTP.p ('<script type="text/javascript">');
-- Create JSON object.
HTP.prn ('var gIrColHelp = $u_eval(''(');
APEX_UTIL.JSON_FROM_SQL(l_sql);
HTP.prn (')'');');
HTP.p ('</script>');
END;Add to page HTML header
<script type="text/javascript">
$.htmldbIrReady(function(){
$.each(gIrColHelp.row,function(i,jd){
$($x("apexir_"+jd.COLUMN_ALIAS)).parent("th").attr({"title":jd.HELP_TEXT});
</script>See working example

ToolTip for a report

I have a big report. and now i want to show one column as a tool tip like the one in java. this means: for every row exists a specific column, named description, which should be shown as a tool tip.
Is there a possibility to realize this?

Hi again,
with the tool tip i got a little problem.
in this report i have 205 data rows. and two rows are displayed wrong now.
the first two columns are right. than comes the third column "hostname", which contains a link and the tooltip.
But now - only in two rows - in the third row is the fourth colum with the link and the tooltip of the third column.
The following columns are also moved in the column before.
Can someone imagine why the columns moved?
Additional info: i can edit every row in a form. if i edit one of the two rows all is correct, that means hostname = hostname and so on

Results Tooltip in a report

Hi
When creating a report with navigation link or dynamic sort on the dashboard when you point with the mouse over the link ( not clicking it just standing on the value) it gives a "Results" tooltip in yellow box.
Is it possible to control this tooltip and to give another value instead of "Results" or can it be removed?
Thanks

OBI EE - Reports

Is there any way we can give Tool Tip Like help in Reports built in OBI EE. Also can we apply this tool tip at cell level or data level.

I think it is possible by changing the custom XML messages. There are certain messages pointing to tooltips especially in reports as well as in dashboards. Search by Reports(this is the default tooltip for Answers) in the XML messages directory and you would get a list of all Tooltip messages.
Thanks,

Intelligent tooltips

When hovering over a selection of clips, it would be nice if the tooltip that appears reported the in the Timeline would report the Start, End and Duration of the SELECTION and not just the single clip under the cursor. In other words, it would be nice if Tooltips were intelligent.
Agree, disagree?
I know the Info window can do the same thing, but people working on a laptop don't exactly have screen real estate to spare for another window that tooltips could replace.

Ann Bens wrote:
Even in selections I most of the time use the info for one clip.
If that's true for one user here, it surely is true for other users out there, so okay, it seems where would have to be a way to accomodate both, so how about this: A larger tooltip that shows the info for both the individual clip the cursor is above AND the entire clip selection?
If could look like this:
CLIP NAME [CLIP SELECTION]
Start: CLIP [SELECTION]
End: CLIP [SELECTION]
Duration: CLIP [SELECTION]
Example
MVI_3291.MOV [CLIP SELECTION]
Start: 00;01;23;15 [00;01;23;15]
End: 00;01;27;00 [00;03;23;15]
Duration: 00;03;15 [00;03;00;00]
Values would show up for the clip as they currently do, followed by values between brackets (or differentiated somehow) for the entire selection.
Using Mark Selection is not an ideal workaround since it adds an extra step for users to remove the in/out points, or it can remove currently set in and/or out points that the user does not want changed just for the sake of verifying the duration of a clip selection.
Thoughts?

Adding image HTMLB

where should we put the images in the par file. I added them in images folder but its not accessible when i use this
<hbj:image
     id="Image"
     tooltip="Thumbnails"
     src="images/image.JPG"
     alt="Image">
     </hbj:image>

Hi Siddhartha,
If you are using JSPDynPage and if you have JSP page, you can use the code given below in the JSP page. In import statement dont forget to import
"com.sapportals.portal.prt.resource.*" package
<hbj:image id="printIcon"
     tooltip="Print this report"
     alt="Print"
     src="" >
<%
IResource rs = componentRequest.getResource(IResource.IMAGE, "images/image.JPG");
printIcon.setSrc(rs.getResourceInformation().getURL(componentRequest));
%>
</hbj:image>
Hope this helps,
Thanks,
Praveen

Unable to Drill-through in SmartView Version 11.1.1.3

While trying to drill-through in excel using SmartView Version 11, getting an error 'Operation is not valid on member cell. Please make a different selection and try again'. The cell that I'm drilling on does have the tooltip listing the report and it is highlighted in a different color. What setting am I missing?

Hi Celvin,
Planning 11.1.2.3 is installed on a Linux box.
Moreover I couldn't find the folder names 'services' under the logs folder as mentioned by you.
C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\diagnostics\logs\services\HyS9EPMServer-sysout.log (if compact deployment)
C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\diagnostics\logs\services\HyS9Planning.log (if not compact)
Nothing has been captured in
C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\EPMSystem\servers\EPMServer0\logs
But i see that the Dimensions 'Employee' and 'Job' have been added in the Dimension list, which should have been added once the workforce is initialized.

Raj

Question on webi extension points

Hi,
I am just wondering if anyone has used extension points to do the following?
to capture mouse hover (point) when user hovers over the report.
to capture the clicked cell whether it is a column header or cell and column index.
Thanks.

Hi gandams, unfortunately as David said , the event model of the extension point is not that fine grained and you can not trigger events from the report elements itself.
Apart from the report menubar/toolbars/dialogbox/popup buttons, you can trigger events for workflow actions such as refresh, drill, or when you switch report tabs. (please note that the opendocument event will be included in a next service pack).
Maybe as a workaround, you could create a new panel (left or right). Then point it to a JSP page where you will invoke a mix of Javascript/CSS and REBEAN in order to get values from dataproviders or a selected table.
From there you can create a tooltip on your report values and interact with the report.

OnMouseOver displays Tooltip from hidden column of classic report

What: The Goal:
Make easily available more information than fits on one line of the screen without using multiple fixed lines.
Background:
Classic report with 18 data items (columns) visible. Has Search box and user can choose number of rows displayed.
A couple data items can be long (20-30 characters) compared to the screen width. The right-most data item might run 100 characters.
Proposed Strategy:
1) Display the first n characters of the long item(s) on the report.
2) On onMouseOver display the entire item.
Proposed Approach:
1) For each column with long data, hold the entire value in a hidden item.
2) Display long (hidden) value in tooltip (bubble?/balloon?) upon onMouseOver of that value.
Note: This is not ToolTip/Help for a column but display of the long value for a specifc item in the row of a column.
Sought After Feature:
1) To reduce maintenance, would like to implement for multiple columns using a single common block of code.
Question:
Given other approaches you know, is this a good approach to achieve the goal? Alternative approaches?

Well it took a while and you really made me work for this. :)
For the end result hover on the Job Ln Nm column.
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=991202:1
I added some old code I had laying around. It adds a bubble that will stay up for 5 sec or until you click away or hover on another record.
What I would do at this point is just truncate (with a substr) the length of the Long Nm to something short. Use whatever indicator you want for the hover. Like for example these glasses <img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#Fndview1.gif"> It's really up to you.
You'll see there's an AJAX Callback PLSQL where you can retreive and format the content of the popup to whatever you want. You could make it real pretty.
Here's what I did:
1. New ShowJob javascript procedure.
function ShowJob(pThis,pId){
     this.dTimeout;
     clearTimeout(this.dTimeout);
     this.dGet = dGet;
     this.dShow = dShow;
     this.dCancel = dCancel;
     var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId'),'APPLICATION_PROCESS=FULL_LONG_NAME',$v('pFlowStepId'));
     this.dGet();
     return;
     function dGet(){
           this.dTimeout = setTimeout("this.dCancel()",6500);
          get.addParam('x01',pId);
           get.GetAsync(dShow);
     function dShow(){
           $x_Hide('rollover');
           if(p.readyState == 1){
           }else if(p.readyState == 2){
           }else if(p.readyState == 3){
           }else if(p.readyState == 4){
                 $x('rollover_content').innerHTML = p.responseText;
                 $x_Show('rollover');
            var l = findPosX(pThis)+pThis.offsetWidth+5;
                 var t = findPosY(pThis);
            $x_Style('rollover','left',l + 'px');
                 $x_Style('rollover','top',t + 'px');
// This math would center on the vertical
//                 $x_Style('rollover','left',findPosX(pThis)+pThis.offsetWidth+5);
//                 $x_Style('rollover','top',findPosY(pThis)-($x('rollover').offsetHeight/2)+($x(pThis).offsetHeight/2));
               document.onclick = function(e){
               dCheckClick(e);
           }else{return false;}
     function dCheckClick(e){
          var elem = html_GetTarget(e);
          try{
                    var lTable = $x_UpTill(elem,"DIV");
                    if(lTable.id!='rollover_content'){dCancel();}
                    else{}
          }catch(err){dCancel();}
     function dCancel(){
           $x_Hide('rollover');
          document.onclick = null;
           get = null;
}2. Rollover div on the page footer (div id="rollover"...). Of course this could be a region also.
<div id="rollover" style="display:none;color:black;background:#FFF;border:2px solid #369;width:290px;position:absolute;padding:4px;">
<div id="rollover_content"></div>
</div>
3. PLSQL AJAX Callback. : FULL_LONG_NAME
-- select your value with apex_application.g_x01
htp.p('You hover over ' || apex_application.g_x01 || '<br>');
htp.p('Here is the Full Long Name: XXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXX 1234565');4. Changed Long Nm column to be a link with the onmouseover call that calls the new procedure ShowJob. I made the assumption that with the NUM parameter you could fetch the full record of what you need.
onmouseover="ShowJob(this,#NUM#)"
That should be it.
Let me know what you think.
