Visual Composer 7.0 and CE

Hi,
Could anyone tell me the difference between VC 7.0 and VC 7.1 CE(composite Environment). Is there any difference between the two? Can anyone explain on this and give some documents related to this?
Regads,
Divya

Visual Composer for SAP NetWeaver Composition Environment has undergone major revisions both in functionality and in usability. For example, ability to componentize models to enable reuse, access to source control, ability to work on multiple models simultaneously, changes in the deployment process, easier layout design, more intuitive use of containers, and much more.
You can see more details about the differences in the two versions here:

Visual Composer 7.0 and LoadRunner VueGen

Has anyone been able to make Visual Composer 7.0 work with Vuegen (v8.1 FP3)? Running on NW04s SPS10 J2EE and Portal. The model is rather simple it executes an ABAP BAPI and returns Exchange rate data. Works great in the browser with no issue.
VueGen receives the data (seen in the playback), but then has a fatal issue, with message = Fatal Communications error, cannot retrieve the data. The https is definitely working Ethereal proves that. VueGen always works a little differently than the IE6 browser based on Ethereal (that's a mystery).
Anyway, I am guessing that the Web-HTML and Web-SAP Protocols simply cannot handle the Flash bytecode that is streamed back to the Vuegen process. It must be trying to do something with it, and failing.
Any ideas or success stories with Visual Composer 7 / Flash (not WebDynPro), and Vuegen would be greatly appreciated? And if you are about to try it , good luck.

Hi Frank,
From what I understand you are talking about recording Flex applications and not VC design time, right?
If so, I do remember having some problem with VUGen. I think that what helped me was using the option of using the old recording engine. This can be set in VUGen-> Recording Options->Advances->Recording Engine.
Also, I don't think you need the SAP-WEB, just use the Regular Web-HTTP.
After you record should see web_custom_request going to "com.sap.visualcomposer.vcbroker". I would put some web_reg_find before these requests and supply some expected returned data to search for.
Best Regards,
Noam

Visual Composer Numeric Field and decimals

I have a numeric field in a visual composer application. Sometimes the field has a value like 23.11 and other times it can have a value such as 23.00 with zeroes after the decimal point. If there are numbers after the decimal like the .11 it works fine. However, I cannot figure out a way to retain the .00 in the field. The VC always takes the 23.00 and changes it to 23 (whole value). I want to retain the decimal .00 after the 23.
I am using Netweaver 7.0 SP20. Please let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks
Angie.

Hi Angie,
please refer to this link:
[Number Formatting mask in Visual Composer|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/5e/99903d4842490889391d33661a8ba3/frameset.htm]
there is a .m parameter that should do the trick, you should user .2 so as to show two digits in the right of the decimal dot.
If it doesn't work you should create an OSS Note, it shouldn't be strange that is another of the Visual Composer Bugs.
Best regards,
Marco.

Solution for Visual composer error: 32k span and 64k byte limit

Dear friends,
I am getting the error in visual composer 32k span and 64k byte limit since last half year,
some time error will get resolved by adding layer in to model OR adding some table and form to model OR reduce the animation effect OR even by doing tab strip view for layer model, doing nested ivew.
but this solution not usefull for every time.
what should we do for this error(32k span and 64k byte limit),
is it solved by updating EP version or by EP java stack or any other updates which will solve the This VC error.
64k error i am getting is:
+Error in compiling Flex application: Error: A function in the code exceeds the 64K byte limit (actual size = '65570'). Since the problem occurs in the compiler-generated deferred instantiation code, please refactor/componentize portions of this document.
(/usr/sap/IBD/DVEBMGS10/j2ee/cluster/server0/GUIMachine_Business_Packages/Managment_cockpit11_31066/FLEX_COMPILATION_FOLEDR/AADCDM.mxml:19)
Failed to compile AADCDM.mxml+
hope to get answer form you,
Thanks and Regards,
Dushyant.

Hi,
I think it's better to post this question into the Visual Composer forum. Anyway, the 32k/64k bug is solved with the flex2 server which is already released.
Also have a look into the [Wiki page|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/VC/64Kbytelimit].
Hope that helps!

Flex Table Add Row Issue with Dynamic Entry Lists in Visual Composer

All,
Your help would be kindly appreciated in resolving an 'Add Row'-issue within a Flex Table that uses Dynamic Entry Lists in Visual Composer. The issue here is as follows :
When I use a [Local Dynamic Entry List |http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=O5hrG2aMxWZ84Mu1211193041]to populate a row field, the initial row and all next rows are emptied upon 'insert row', they loose their selected values and also the entry list values ('pull-down menus') are lost. Please also see [screenshot|http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=FPLr2cABcgiHRou1211192889].
The initial row does [show the entry list values |http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=2HybmEHAuQYs9cg1211192766]from the Local Dynamic Entry List based on the dynamically assigned input value; upon 'insert row' the entry lists are lost. Please also see [screenshot|http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=FPLr2cABcgiHRou1211192889].
When using a [Global Dynamic Entry List |http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=m5p2KYuBb442dTq1211193501]to populate the row fields the Flex-table behaves normally as expected. Unfortunately with a Global Entry List it is not possible to dynamically assign a input value. Please also see [screenshot|http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=U96V0zENCCyO3gA1211193157].
Please also see the [issue summary image|http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=06xti08tIEfely1211195178] I made to visualize the issue. What I basically would like to know is whether this is a 'known issue' or not, or that it is an issue that can be fixed or whether there is an alternative workaround available ... I'm using Visual Composer 7.0 and the Portal is at SP 13.
Many thanks,
Freek

Hi,
you should be able to assign a dynamic value with global entry lists as well. If you say @myParam as dynamic value. VC will indicate in red letters, that the field @myParam is unknown. However, it will work, as long as @myParam is known in the form or table where you use the entry list.
I have never heard of the problem that entry lists are emptied after "insert"-event.

Benni

Eventing in Visual Composer 7.1 Enhancement Package 1

We are running Enhancment Package 1 on 7.1 and the release note says that client side event is supported. However I build 2 iViews one with Data Entry text iput and and a signal out and the the sencond one with a signal in and a text field. I cannot get what I type in to the first iView to pass to the second. Is there a simple example that illustrates that eventing is working in this release.

I used the non WEB Dynpro event tested with the following results.
For an iView that I had build with Visual Composer 7.0 and converted using the CE 7.1.1 converter tool I now see the following. In this case the evnt had the prefix urn: on it
10:20:12 : urn:com.osisoft.pct.RtPM, AdhocTags, %3CParamsversion%3D%223%22%3E%3CRowParamname%3D%22%5C%5Cgsrtwebparts%5Ccdt158%22%2F%3E%3C%2FParams%3E, undefined
This same iView on Visual Composer 7.0 delivered the following message using the tool in EP 7.0
10:52:46 : urn:com.osisoft.pct.RtPM, AdhocTags, <Params><param name="Paramname" value="%5C%5Cgsrtwebparts%5Ccdt158"/></Params>, undefined
For an iView that I created new with Visual Composer 7.1.1 and tried to use the same tool the tool did not catch the event and nothing was displayed in the log when the event name had urn: on it.
I rebuilt and removed the urn: and now the tool picked up the event with the following log.
11:12:29 : urn:com.osisoft.pct.RtPM, AdhocTags, %3CParamsversion%3D%223%22%3E%3CRowParamname%3D%22%5C%5Cgsrtwebparts%5Ccdt158%22%2F%3E%3C%2FParams%3E, undefined
The XML has changed and the use of urn: is inconsistent between versions.
Thanks for pointing me to this tool.
The Web Dynpro version you suggest did not show anything so that is why I tried the non-WebDynpro.

Visual Composer 7.0 roadmap

Hello experts,
We have NetWeaver EP 7.0 installed with Visual Composer in our C&B and DEV environment. We haven't started developing with it yet.
My questions to you is:
What is the future of Visual Composer 7.0?
My understanding is that SAP has put a lot of energy integrating Visual Composer into CE 7.1. This new version has significant changes compare to it's predecessor. Visual Composer for CE 7.1 seems to be the way to go if one needs to create applications based on existing data services. In short terms, both versions will coexist. Bbut in long terms...?
Can anyone help me find the Visual Composer roadmap?
Thanks a lot for your help,
Nathalie

Hi,
This is a quote from the Visual Composer main page on SDN: (/people/jarrod.williams/blog/2009/09/14/whats-new-in-visual-composer)
"_Visual Composer 7.0_
In light of the progress made relating to parity between Visual Composer 7.0 and Visual Composer CE, our investment in Visual Composer 7.0 will be limited to maintenance after the release of enhancement package 2 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0. We are confident that with the provisions made for migration to Visual Composer 7.1 enhancement package 1 or Visual Composer 7.2 and the great feature set in Visual Composer for enhancement package 2 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0, our existing customers running Visual Composer 7.0 will enjoy the best of both worlds: the option to upgrade to Visual Composer 7.2 or to stay with the latest release of Visual Composer 7.0."
I'll stress the last part, though VC on CE is a great version, staying with the latest release of Visual Composer 7.0 is also good, depending on your needs of course, for instance - the attractive Flash runtime which is currently exclisive for VC 7.0, the "Flash Components" feature that was entered on SP5 of 7.01 (and in 7.02) , which enables you to consume custom 3rd party flash components or Xcelsius controls inside Visual Composer,, which makes flash black-boxes easier to consume than in CE, .. etc..
still - VC on CE of course has it's own advantages - the ability to consume clustered services, life-cycle management, it's intergration with the other CE components etc..
and so if you'll find that VC 7.0 is not enough, you could always upgrade and migrate to the CE versions (7.1 or 7.2).
bottom line - it's a win win situation.

Hi Vani!
1. Unfortunately one of my requirements is that I can only get data from queries and not from Web Services or other sources, so no WS calling would be allowed in my deployed I-View, but thanks anyway for your suggestion.
2. You are right, I was not clear enough in my first post. Let's say I have 3 rows and 12 columns, what I want is the following:
ROW3 = ROW1 / ROW2
obviously for each column. Do you have an idea about how it could be done??
Thanks a lot,
Andrea

Hi Deepa,
I'm assuming you would like to embed a map into your application.
In that case, you need to connect your data service (the one that holds the addresses you wish to present using the map) to an HTML view and map the data as follows:
="http://www.map-generator.net/map.php?name=spot&address="&@Address&"&city="&@City&"width=500&height=400&maptype=map&zoom=14"
Where @Address is the field in your service which holds the address, e.g: 10 market st
and the @City is the field in your service that hods the city, e.g: San Francisco
Hope this helps

What is advantage of using Visual Composer In SAP

Hi friends,
please tell me what is advantage of using visual composer in SAP.
and please give me basic notes to understand Visual Composer.
I Don't have any idea about this topic.
please help me.
Thanks & Regards,
Yogesh

Hi Yogesh,
SAP Visual Composer is a browser based, graphical modeling tool that - by reusing existing data services like RFCs, web services, queries, query-views, tables - allows creating business applications with both transactional and analytical services seamlessly integrated. In addition it gives modelers the choice to select the UI technology and build user interfaces.
