Webdynpro pop up text change

Question

Hi All,
I have created a pop up window by using method create_popup_to_confirm of if_wd_window_manager . I have created the OK button by using if_wd_window=>co_button_ok of if_wd_window .
I need to change the default button text " OK  " to " EDIT ". I am following the below approach .
        view_controller = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
        lo_window->subscribe_to_button_event(
        button = if_wd_window=>co_button_ok
        button_text = 'EDIT'
        action_name = 'MSG'
        action_view = view_controller ).
Note : Action " MSG "  is a dummy action which I have created just to change the default button text .
This works if the control is in the same view where pop up is called . If we have to go back to other webdynpro component/ view then , after clicking on EDIT button in pop up , it gives the dump with the error " Controller for View, Window, Interface, and Configuration Cannot Be Created " .
Please let me know if there is any other way to change the default text in the pop up screen or any other solution . I am ok to use any other method which creates pop up window and default text should be modified .
Thanks,
Kiran.

Hi Kiran,
If its that important for you to change the button label, I would suggest creating a new view and calling it as a popup.
Please follow below steps to do so:
1) Create a new view with your respective design having message and EDIT button.
2) Create a new window say Popup_Window
3) Add the new view to this window and add below code
4)Create a
Data: context_node type ref to if_wd_context_node.
  data: lr_popup type ref to if_wd_window,
        lr_view_controller type ref to if_wd_view_controller.
  data: lr_api_comp_controller type ref to if_wd_component,
        lr_window_manager type ref to if_wd_window_manager.
  lr_api_comp_controller = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
  lr_window_manager = lr_api_comp_controller->get_window_manager( ).
  lr_popup = lr_window_manager->create_window(
  MODAL               = ABAP_TRUE
  window_name         = 'POPUP_WINDOW'  "Name of the window created in step 2
  TITLE               = Confirmation Message"
  CLOSE_BUTTON        = ABAP_TRUE
  BUTTON_KIND         = if_wd_window=>CO_BUTTONS_OKCANCEL
MESSAGE_TYPE        = if_wd_window=>co_msg_type_error
  CLOSE_IN_ANY_CASE   = ABAP_TRUE
*MESSAGE_DISPLAY_MODE = MESSAGE_DISPLAY_MODE
Adds an action to the popup screen buttons
lr_view_controller = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
lr_popup->subscribe_to_button_event(
button = if_wd_window=>co_button_ok
button_text = 'EDIT'
action_name = 'EDIT'
action_view = lr_view_controller ).
  lr_popup->open( ).
I hope it helps.
Please revert back in case of issues.
