New Features @ Visual Composer 7.01: Blog Series

Hi Modelers,
We just released a new blog series about the new features on the Enhancement Package 1 for NW Visual Composer.
To follow up the series go to:
New Features @ Visual Composer 7.01: Blog Series
Kind Regards,
Luis

Hi,
first of all thank you for your effort to provide this feature in 7.00.
We are running 7.00 SP22 on Unix (Sun Solaris). I was able to deploy the zip-files of the Xcelsius example components using flash component manager and use the controls in the storyboard, but when running the application nothing happens (e.g. passed value to the input port of the gauge control, but component is always showing 50%).
Is in 7.00 SP22 also an issue concerning Unix platforms as in 7.01, where flash components + SP5 only work on windows platform?

Klaus

Hello,
We now understand that we have to create the model and it's development component first in the local repository. When the model is complete and tested, we can add it, along with the development component, to either source control or shared repository, depending on the configuration.
We will proceed, as described in SAP's documentaion https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/docs/DOC-104577.
Best regards,

*NEW* in Visual Composer 7.0 - Flash Component Consumption

Hi Amir,
Thanks for all the wonderful links and articles.
Amir, I have a question related to VC, I created a application which initially shows a Table and on click of any line item I am calling a RFC which returns a URL, which points to a Image. The problem is, In VC application I want to show this Image at runtime but Image UI doesnot allow me to assign image at runtime, I also tried to use HTML page and passed the URL to it, but in this case I am able to show image but I cant control Width & Height of Image.
Can you please suggest me some inputs for my requirement, Is it possible to pass the URL to a flex component to show image and I can come back to Layer1 from Flex component which might be in Layer2.
Regards
Tushar

Hi Amir
I was wondering how I could get hold of the gauge control used in the video. It's not one of the Xcelcius ones provided in your PDF.
Thanks

Visual composer iView in a BI web template

Hi all!
Is it possible to embedd an iView created with Visual composer to a web application created with BI web application designer? Can I use for example a hyperlink in such way that the content of the link is opened as default (user doesn't need to open the link to see the content of the visual composer iView)?
Greatful for your help! Points guaranteed!
Regards
Sari

Hi Rakesh,
Starting from SP15, new features are no longer a part of the service packs, but they are delivered as an Enhancement Pack (EhP). EhP1 is scheduled to be released for ramp up these days and it will have many very cool features. You can read about them here: [What's New in Visual Composer - Enhancement Package 1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0|What's New in Visual Composer - Enhancement Package 1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0]
The feature I talked about in my previous post is not listed there but it's there alright... I' going to post an article or a blog on how to use it in the coming days so stay tuned...

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.

Deploy in Visual Composer fails.

Hello Experts,
    I am new to visual composer. I created a small application which compiles OK. When I click the Deploy button, I get the following on the screen:
      1. Compiling SalesOrder...
      2. Deploying...
         Error in compiling Flex application (1).
         Consult log file for details.
There are no error messages in the VC log on the screen and there is no message in the portal defaultTrace file. In the visual composer I have turned up the logging, but I don't see any error messages.
Thanks for your help and suggestions.
-Arvind

Sorry for my stupidity ;(.
Configuration is similarly. VC70/EP70 SP14. Local SLD
Compile is ok, but deploy - no.
log:
"Error in executing a process for Flex compilation: java.lang.InternalError: An error occurred because the
re is no graphics environment available. Please set the headless-server setting in the configuration file to true.
what must i do?

Visual composer

hi,
i want to know how we can use visual composer with SAP
QUERY(ABAP QUERY).IF ANY ONE PROVIDE ME AN EXAMPLE THAT RELATES THE VISUAL COMPOSER AND SAP QUERY THEN IT IS GOOD.
I AM NEW TO VISUAL COMPOSER,PLEASE HELP ME GURU'S.IT'S URGENT

Hi Sachin,
Make sure you are using SAP Queries that return flat structures and not Logical DataBase Structures otherwise the connector won't work with those structures currently. The SAP Query connector treats what is returned as a table so when the return structure is multiple levels deep you will run into issues.
Cheers,
Scott

Wat is visual composer?

hi
i m new to visual composer can any one give me a gist of it? Thanks.
[email protected]

vln

Hi,
Visual composer is a visual modeling tool where u can create applications raplidly without writing any code.Evrything can be done by dragging and dropping appropriate objects and asscoiating them.
The code will be generated by the visual composer itself.
Visual composer is mainly targeted on business experts who know what the applications should do, but have little idea about coding.
One important thing to note is that visual composer still cant be used to develop a full blown comprehensive application.In this stage it can be used for prototyping and for small applications..
And in some areas we have to still rely on coding..

Visual Composer 7.0-Change the Y-axis from decimal scale value to integer

Hi Experts,
I'm new in Visual Composer 7.0, my report is work fine, but when I want to show the data in bar-chart, the values on y-axis are 0.0, 0.4.0.8,1.2,1.6.2.0 but i want like 1,2,3,4.
Normally, this happen when values on y-axis less than 5, if more than 5, it will turn to 1,2,3,4. (which i expected)
Inside my function module, I set all the data as integer already..
I read through some suggestions in the forum, they suggest using 'Fixed range' and set the interval size, but need to include min & max value. But, inside my program, min value & max value has to be automatically adjusted, ie i can not set the values for those.
Please suggest solution for me, need it urgently..
Thanks a lot!
Best regards,
Derrick

Hi,
first of all: please close this post. It is definitely the wrong forum. Your second thread regarding this is in the right forum.
Secondly: SDN Moderators prefer to move threads from one forum to another instead of having duplicated posts. You as a user cannot move but moderators can do - so contact your forum moderator and he may move it.
