Web Dynpro Themes

Hello All,
I want to make the header of the Tables in BOLD.
So I was hoping that I can make use of web dynpro themes.
Is it possible to make the table header bold using web dynpro themes?
If it is the case ten will this web dynpro theme affect all the web dynpro applications deployed on the portal?
If I have to restirct that the theme be applied to only certain web applications then how can I do it?
If I am displaying my web dypro applications in portal and we have custimized the portal theme as well, then who woll have prcedence over other, web dynpro or portal?
FYI We are runnig both portal and web dypro runtime environment on NW04s
Thanks and Regards
Manoj Kumar

Problem with Web Dynpro Theme in 2004s ABAP Sneak Preview

Hi !
Working on the Web Dynpro for ABAP 2004s Sneak Preview
I encountered a problem in applying a web Dynpro theme
via the URL-parameter sap-cssurl.
I tried the following URL:
http://hostname:8000/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/webdynproapp?sap-cssurl=http://hostname:8000/sap/public/bc/ur/nw5/themes/sap_hcb
But it didn't work ?!
Could anybody tell me what went wrong ?
Thanks in advance,
Frank

Hi Frank,
Try this
1. Set all dynpro's to run with portal theme whether you run them inside/outside portal.
For this, run visual administrator -> server -> configuration adapter -> (change mode) -> webdynpro -> sap.com -> tcwddispwda -> Propertysheet.default
set the parameter sap.theme.default to your portal theme path: we've theme CustomerTheme (portal is nw04sr1 sp14) and theme url is as follow:
/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portaldesign.urdesigndata/themes/portal/CustomerTheme
2. call individual application with parameter to use portal theme as follow:
http://<portal hostname with domain>:<port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/local/WD_Project/Applname?sap-cssurl=http://<portal hostname with domain>:<port>/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.design.urdesigndata/themes/portal/CompanyTheme
Hope it helps...

E-Recruiting Web Dynpro theme issue

Hi,
I have created a theme in our system (using BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS), and went into SPRO to assign the theme to WD (sap e-recruiting -> techinical settings -> user interfaces -> settings for WD -> backend -> specify url param for application with WDA). Here, I assigned the THEME_URL parameter to /sap/public/bc/ur/nw5/themes/my_theme, but the system is still using the standard theme.
My question is do I have the parameter right in SPRO? This should assign the theme from the standard to whatever I define it as, but it is not taking the theme I input into the system.
Any help would be great!!!

Use this at the end of the URL: &sap-ep-themeroot=/sap/public/bc/ur/nw5/themes/your_theme/

Using CSS for Web dynpro application in EP

Hi,
I have some CSS (Style sheets) which I need to apply to the portal, so that all the web dynpro applications can have the same look and feel.
I read something about Theme Editor in EP. Can I somehow use that to import the CSS contents into the EP theme?
Any pointer to using CSS for Web Dynpro applications will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Application specific theme in CE7.1 web dynpro application

Hi,
where can I find documentation about setting up application specific themes for Java Web Dynpro applications running in Composition Environment 7.1? I've found documents that refer to the Visual Administrator but since it doesn't exist anymore in CE7.1 there must be a different way.

Hi Kevin,
Yes, charts are going to be supported in WD html in next versions of VC( Q3 2008).

NW2004s: Assigning a custom theme to a web dynpro running in the portal

The situation is as follows:
Some web-dynpros (for java) have a custom theme, a theme which is not the default theme of the portal or the default theme for web-dynpros in general.
In NW2004 this worked as follows:
When starting a web-dynpro in the portal it checked if it was started with the right theme. If not the exit plug of the WD interface view was called with an Url of the WD application plus a parameter for the right theme.
This is the famous parameter sap-cssurl.
For that parameter there are some values possible:
1) sap-cssurl=http://<host>:<port>/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.design.urdesigndata/themes/portal/mytheme
2) sap-cssurl=http://<host>:<port>/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.design.portaldesigndata/themes/portal/mytheme
3) sap-cssurl=http://<portal>:<host>/webdynpro/resources/sap.com/tcwddispwda/global/SSR/themes/mytheme
The first 2 are locations of the portal environment, the last one is a location of the WD runtime environment.
As I noticed this must be a full qualified absolute Url including host and port.
This works in NW2004 for web dynpro's running standalone AND in the portal.
Now for NW2004s:
The 3 variants of the parameter sap-cssurl work for web dynpro's running standalone.
But now for web dynpro's which are integrated in the portal:
The exit-plug with an Url is not possible anymore, this leads to the runtime error:
com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.exceptions.WDRuntimeException: Exit-Plug must no be triggered with an URL when running in portal. Use portal navigation instead to navigate to another application!
Okay, as a first workaround I tried the portal navigation,
but somehow the supplied parameter sap-cssurl has no effect.
The code for that in the on-startup plug of the WD component:
WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute(
PCD_ID,
WDPortalNavigationMode.SHOW_INPLACE,
null,
null,
WDPortalNavigationHistoryMode.NO_HISTORY,
null,
null,
"theme_set=X&" + theme,
 theme,
 false,
 true
I used there absolute portal navigation and the parameter (sap-cssurl=...) is part of the launcher parameter and the business parameter in the call to WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute.
But as I wrote above, this has no effect on the theme.
In the I-View the parameter "Supply portal theme" is set to NO, otherwise the parameter "sap-cssurl" is supplied twice (this can be seen in the poroperties of the web-page in Internet Explorer).
What I tried afterwards was setting the parameter sap-cssurl hardcoded in the "Application parameters" of the I-View. This doesn't work either.
My question is: Should this be anyway possible for a NW2004s portal?
Did anyone successfully implement this?
Kind regards,
 Erich Lind

Hi Erich,
I am facing the same problem. I am on 04 s and couldnot implement the custom theme to a web dynpro running in the portal. When I run the web dynpro app as stand alone, the custom theme applies fine. But when in portal, it takes the standard theme.
Was wondering if you figured this out.
Thanks

Web Dynpro application does not apply portal theme

Hi Guys,
We created a new portal theme and assigned it to our users. The portal desktop gets assigned succesfully and portal applications also show the new theme colors. But all web dynpro pages still show in the blue SAP theme. This issue only occurs on our development portal, when we import the same theme on our test portal is all works fine.
I also tried to assign the WebDynpro parameters "sap.useWebDynproStyleSheet" and "sap.theme.default" and then the web dynpro applications are indeed forced into the portal theme. However, that is no soluition since all web dynpro applications then use the theme including SAP applications like the NetWeaver Administrator.
We looked at OSS note '1446099 - Web Dynpro application not displayed
in customer theme' but the stylesheets are not different.
sap portal sytlesheet: UR=7.31.0.14.1
Web Dynpro Style sheet: UR Version=7.31.0.14.0
The portals in which the theme does work have the same stylesheet versions as mentioned above.
We also created an OSS message for this so if we solve it that way I will update this message. But if there is anyone on this forum that might have an idea that it would be highly appreciated. If the problem takes too long to solve we will perform a refresh from a portal that works but I hope that we will be able to find the reason of this behavior.
Kind Regards,
Nico van der Linden...

In theory, these versions should work correctly.
You can compare the patch levels applied on your dev portal and test portal - specifically compare the version/patch for the component EPPSERV*.SCA - and see if you have any differences there.
Thanks,
Shanti

Creating mobile web dynpro application which customized theme

Hi guys,
I have created a mobile web dynpro application and a theme with Theme Editor. Then I have appended this theme with the sap-cssurl parameter to my application.
my_application? sap-cssurl=http://host:port/webdynpro/resources/sap.com/tcwddispwda/global/SSR/themes/MyTheme
It works well in my first testing on my laptop.
In order to test it on my mobile device I have also appended sap-wd-client parameter to my application. Now my URL looks like
my_application? sap-cssurl=http://host:port/webdynpro/resources/sap.com/tcwddispwda/global/SSR/themes/MyTheme&sap-wd-client=PieClient
It doesnt work. My application layout looks as if I dont use the theme. Did somebody have the same problem and can help me by finding a solution.
Thanks for your answers.
Marita

Hi Marita,
Mobile Web Dynpro supports several handheld mobile devices. I guess yours is a Pocket PC. Except the newest Pocket PC 2003, all the other versions don't have CSS support. Therefore the current Pocket PC client "PieClient" of Web Dynpro lacks the ability for customized themes. On the other hand, themes are supported for more advanced devices, such as Nokia Communicator 9500/9300.

I don't believe that your answer applies to Web Dynpro ABAP. Page with Flog Logic sounds like BSP. Please make sure you are posting about the correct technology.

Using portal theme in web dynpro tables

We are currently running EP6 (NW04). Is there a way to make our java web dynpro table ui elements use the portal theme? All tables appear blue unless they are checked as readonly in which case they are white.
I see there is a TableCellDesign ui element, but that is not available until NW04s and we are not there yet.
Please assist. (and thank you!)
Jeff Karls

hi
You are right about NW04s portal theme editor and we are able to change colour
the tablecelleditor ui. But as far as i remember i was able to change properties like selected cell colour, non selected cell colour and mulitselected cell colour.
However if you are not able to change it in EP 6.0 (NW04) then use the webdynpro themes. I suppose you will be able to do everything there.

How to call custom themes for Web Dynpro ABAP Application?

Hi,
I need to change the appearance of Web Dynpro ABAP application. So far I followed below steps,
1.     Created theme folder u2018testngou2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> u2018testngou2019 ).
2.     used program BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS to dowmloaod content of u2018sap_tradeshowu2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> sap_tradeshowu2019) to desktop.
3.     Modified the themes using Eclipse Theme Editor.
4.     used program BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS to upload modified themes to MIME repository u2018testngou2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> u2018testngou2019) .
My current URL is like http://server.name:XXXX/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/hrrcf_a_startpage_int_cand?sap-client=XXX.
Now I want to know how custom themes called for Web Dynpro ABAP Application.
Is my approach correct?
...Naddy

Hi Naddy,
What you used is one way and even I failed when tried that method,
Instead go to SE38 - WD_THEMES - and you need to upload the zip file and you need to follow a folder structure.
it is case sensitive, atleast the zip file.
Make a zip file by name "Project.zip" -
Create a Folder Project and have the below folder structure,
1 data - all the properties files and also the designinfo file, below is the code
2 themes - (to get all the files download the theme from portal and you will have all the folders)
   2.1 ur
     2.1.1 name of the theme
       2.1.1.1 common
       2.1.1.2 csf
       2.1.1.3 r
       2.1.1.4 ur - all the css files (would be good if you can get the files from the server.)
       2.1.1.5   WSRP
3 war - empty folder
*.designinfo
isVisible=true
version=7.0.14.1.0
isDefault=false
isSapDesign=false
designName=**** name of the theme
Once done create a zip file and click on Start Import and give the path and will ask for transport request, it will take a while to upload once done as mentioned in the use the parameter sap-ep-themeroot="path"
This will resolve the issue.
Cheers-
Pramod

Portal theme not picked for SAP Web Dynpro Iview

Hi,
We have used light framework page for our portal and all the iviews display the content within the iviews in the same set of colors (blue for buttons). However, for a WD java content, I have created an SAP Web Dynpro iView and the contents displayed here appear in the SAP colors without picking those set for the portal.
The same application parameters display the portal colors when we use the Web Dynpro Proxy iview.
Any idea how I can make the SAP Web Dynpro iView appear like the other portal iviews?
Note: The stylesheet property for the iview is already entered (ur), and I have also set the 'Supply Portal stylesheet' property to 'Yes'.
Please provide your inputs.
Thanks,
Vinay

Hi ,
In ABAP Webdynpro for similar problem we used WDFORCEEXTERNAL Sheet property of WDA.
The Web Dynpro framework automatically compares the versions of the portal and Web Dynpro
for ABAP style sheets. If the Web Dynpro for ABAP has a newer version, the WDA style sheet is used. This avoids unattractive rendering and JavaScript errors.You can deactivate this behavior again using the WDFORCEEXTERNALSTYLESHEET application parameter of WDA.See also SAP Notes 1033496 .
If you use the stylesheet of the portal to display the application, the rendering may not appear correctly and Javascript errors can occur(If portal style sheet is lower than WD).
Though Iam not familiar with WD java , the property force portal style sheet in WD java application should be enough to make WD accept portal theme.
