XML forms rating

Hello,
I've created xmlforms and thanks to an UI command group I'm able to rate the documents from the renderlist
To see the results of the rating I have to go to the detail page.  How can I make the result appear in the renderlist?  I already added col:rating to my visibility properties of my resource renderer...
Do I have to do further settings to make the rating result appear?
Is it also possible to create a button from the "show" form to rate?

I've found a new workaround that works just fine for us:
<b>First I have created properties</b> (content management -->metadata --> properties) for the fields I wanted to show in my RenderlistItem, all the properties have the parameter indexable checked.  My own properties are called Title, Author, Uitgeleend_door, Status, Location
In the xml forms builder, I didn't save the values of the fields in the Dataschema but in the properties i have created in the previous step, you do that by <b>linking the label/textfield to the property in stead of the dataschema</b>
<b>I created an index</b> of the xml files because I want to search in the forms
<b> I created a new Search Result renderer setting</b> with the following parameters:
- Collection Renderer:   SearchResultListRenderer
- Displayed properties: col:Title(contentLink/[1;2]/noColumnSpacing/alignTop/alignLeft/space-right=30),col:Author([1;3]/noColumnSpacing/alignTop/alignLeft/space-right=30),col:Status([1;4]/noColumnSpacing/alignTop/alignLeft/space-right=30),col:Uitgeleend_door([1;5]/noColumnSpacing/alignTop/alignLeft/space-right=30),col:Location([1;6]/noColumnSpacing/alignTop/alignLeft/space-right=30),col:rating([1;7]/noColumnSpacing/alignTop/alignLeft/space-right=10),rnd:action(/alignTop)
Title, Author, Status, Uitgeleend_door, Location are my own properties... so you have to change them into your own properties
- Column header property: Transparant
<b>I created an xmlforms renderer setting</b>
<b>I created a layout set</b> to combine the renderer setting and the Search result renderer setting
Afterward I created a KM search iView with the following parameters filled in:
- Layout set for search results: my own layoutset
- Search component set: my own search component set
- Search Option set: my own search option set
Actually I don't use the renderlistItem form any more, I have just created a list of properties that the search result has to show.  Because of the "displayed properties" parameter in the Search result renderer setting, I can choose which properties I want to show, how they have to be shown. 
When you want that the users see the "show" form when the click on a certain field (here the Title property), you have to define the propertie as a content link.  You do that as followed: <i>col:Title(contentLink/[1;2]/noColumnSpacing/alignTop/alignLeft/space-right=30)</i>
I also created my own command group with the following parameter:
<i>commandList: QuickRatingGroup,details_properties_ex</i> so that the users can rate directly.
I also added the details_properties_ex so that the users can change certain properties.  For example: they may not change the basic information of a book such as the title, the ISBN number, the author,... but they have to be able to change the Status (lent of not lent) and the Uitgeleend_door (lent_by) properties.
I did that because it is not possible to use 2 different edit forms in the xml forms builder...
Hopes this helpes the rest of you

  • Filter Predefined Properies, Feedback Search, XML Forms Show form issues

    Hi all,
    I have created XML forms with XML builder and I have some questions.
    1. When filtering by predefined properties I want to filter by two properties, which are the same. For example, if there is a publication with two authors and author is the predefined property, in the first field I write the name of the first author, in the second field I write the name of the second author, the result is all publications, which are by both authors and all publication, which are either by the one, or by the other.
    I don't have this problem when I filter by two different predefined properties. For example the author and the year. Than the result is all publication, which are by the author AND published in the requested year.
    How can I set this option to be able to filter by two same predefined properties and the relation between both properties to be AND?(only publications by both author)
    2. In the Show form I have created link to the feedback, using XML Forms BUilder, but I need to write first the feedback to be able to see already existing feedbacks,
    if there are any. In the ResourceRendering Form I have created link to the feedback by LayoutSet, where I can see first, if there are already existed feedbacks.
    If there is any possibility to set a LayoutSet for the Show Form or any other way in the Show form to display first the existing feedbacks and than to be able to write a new.
    And something else reffering to the Show form, is it possible to rate the item from Show form or at least to have link to the rating, not a link to the Details.
    I have tried to create a link to the /Properties/col:rating, but it doesn't work. The link dispays the value, if it has been already rated.
    3. Is it possible to search for any information in the feedbacks(to make the feedback searchable)?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Best regards,
    Zlatina

    Hi Zlatin,

    By Default identic properties queries are connected by an 'OR'.

    So far it's not possible to connect two identic proerties by an 'AND' within the standard.
    You can preset a search filter via the relevant Search Option Set.

  • Xml forms not rendered in default layout set - urgent

    Hi guys,
    I've to display several properties and to provide the rating and feedback service in conjunction with xml forms because a "NewsRenderer" doesn't support the display of additional properties.
    So I tried to use one of the default layout sets (e.g. "Consumer Explorer") but the <b>xml forms are not rendered after selecting the "contentLink"</b> (displays raw content of xml document). I'm looking quite a long for a command that opens and renders the xml forms in a new window - without any success...
    Please help! TIA

  • XML form in not getting displayed in the option while assigning

    Hello Experts,
    I have created a XML form and now assigning it to a folder. While assigning Folder>new>forms> .. here I can see other forms but not the new one which I have recently created. Please let me know I can assign the newly created form to the folder.

    Hi,
    Please check for the Form Based Publishing for your KM folder
    System Administration-->System Configuration >Knowledge Management->Form Based Pulishing>Forms Availability>Folder Settings check for the Forms to include and Exclude for your folder path. In this you can include or Exclude forms which you form by adding the XML form ID.

  • How to generate a report from data entered by users in XML forms

    hi,
      i have a requirement to generate report from xml forms which are created using XML forms Builder and stored in Km folders. management want to see in a single report all the activities of all the users in the xml form in such a way that one row in the report presents data blongs to each user.  i have no idea regarding this.
    can any one help me in detail.
    Thanking you in adavance
    sajeer

    Hi Sajeer,
    You have given quite few information what data should be collected / showed in detail. Anyhow, it sounds as if you want to provide data which isn't provided within the standard portal so far (see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/07/dad131443b314988eeece94506f861/frameset.htm for a list of existing reports).
    For your needs you probably have to develop a repository service which reacts on content / property changes and then you would have to log these changes somewhere, for example in a DB. On the other side, you then could implement a report iView which accesses this data and displays it as whished.
    Hope it helps

    Hi,
    is it always the same checkbox that is already filled in? Is this ckeckbox based on a metadata-definition?
    If yes: You could maybe have a look at the metadata-definition. Is there maybe a default-value defined?

  • How can i convert the HTML information in XML form to a PDF?

    Hi does any body know how can i convert the content of an HTML field in a XML Form in a regular text to include in a PDF in a Java program?

    Hi ,
    On the tool bar you have an option "Browser" which is next to "HTML Editor" .
    You know that for using these elements wo have to map them with Data Schema.
    Step by step
    1. In data Model Under Data Schema Add a child and name it Read_More.
    2. In the left hand corner ,click on tab Type and from the drop down select "rid"
    3.Click on the "Browser" from the toolbar (as told earlier) and drag and drop it on the form.
    4. Drag the Data schema which u have made(Read_more) and drop it on the browser on form. On right hand side u will se the mapping done.
    5.Click on the "Browser" which is there in the form and on the right hand side of the form u will see the property window.
    6.In property window change the value of action property to "Item Entry point"
    7. Repeat step 3 and 4 in Render and show form but using "label" nad not browser.
    Do not forget to add Save button in Edit Form.
    This will solve your problem.

  • How to display system property in XML forms

    Hi
    We are using XML forms template for publishing news in KM. In the show form we got author field (a label in the form) which is mapped to system property createdby (PropertyReference = /Properties/default:createdby).But while displaying the form author is not getting populated. When I try to edit the form in XML forms builder in data model tab under properties node no property is visible. Nothing is shown up in properties even after reload option is selected from context menu of properties node.
    I cheked by manually editing PropertyReference to some other property (e.g. modifiedby) but nothing is showing up.
    Can you please suggest how the createdby system property can be shown in the xml form?
    Thanks & Regards
    Sudip

    Hi Sudeep,
    Please try to open the formbuilder in another machine and try to see the properties xml form design view.
    You can even directly can create a lable in show form and add the property name along with the nama space name.
    For default properties namspace is default.Create a lable UI element in show form and select the datasource property and add the property value in that.
    With we can show file related system generated properties in show form.

  • How can you update the content of a textfield in a dynamic xml form from MSAccess and VBA

    I am trying to use the code below to update a field in a dynamic xml form created by Livecycle.
    I can read the field content but cannot change it.
    What am I missing?
    Thanks
    R
    Sub test()
    Dim oPDF As AcroPDDoc
    Dim FileDestName As String

        Set jso = oPDF.GetJSObject
        Set ofld = jso.getfield("form1.TopForm.Header.Subform1.Contact")
        Debug.Print ofld.Value

    oPDF.Save PSsavefull, FileSrcName
    oPDF.Close
    Set jso = Nothing
    Set oPDF = Nothing
    End Sub

    You need to research the difference between an AcroForm and an XFA form.  You're trying to access a "Field" object, which is an AcroForm object.  An XFA form does not have fields, it has nodes.  The JavaScript you are using is specific to AcroForms and you are working with an XFA form.

  • Delete button in xml form

    In the RenderListItem form, I did included two buttons :
      - edit button to edit the news => work perfectly
      - delete button to delete the news => the problem
    When I click on the delete button, I receive the following message :
    XML - Forms 
    Item /BvD-it SEPNews/Others/0056c04e-7c12-2a10-8185-c74e6f577c75.xml does not exist
    but the file do exist.
    When I click on the OK button (at the end of the message), the news is effectively deleted.
    So this is functionnaly working, but it comes with a non relevant error message.
    Thank you for your help
    Vincent

    Hi ,
    there are various ways of doing it..
    You can try as the previous post says or also you can try When new block instance trigger and disable the item
    using set_item_property , it all depends on when and how you want to diable that item.

  • How to reduce a PDF document that contains an Adobe XML form?

    Hi,
    I have created some fillable PDF files using Adobe LiveCycle Designer and used Adobe Acrobat Pro XI to save it as Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in and save)…
    The form includes image, text field, check box, radio button, table and other controls, as well as java scripts behind. The files are from 1 to 3 MB in size. I tried Reduced Size PDF and Optimized PDF, but I got a message: “This PDF document contains an Adobe XML form. Such files cannot be optimized.”
    My questions are:
    Is there a way I can reduce the file greatly, say about 100 KB?
    And after the size reduced,  does it still keep the original quality in format and function?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    if you only use default fonts like Arial or Myriad don't embed fonts into the form at all.
    If you have to use a specific font because of corporate identity you should check if there are fields in your fom using other fonts like Arial.
    Especially floating fields are a reason for big files as they use Designers default font even if you'll never see it in the PDF.
    When using images, you should not check the "embed" checkbox, as this will save the images a base64-stream into the xml-source.
    If unchecked the images are stored as hex-stream in the PDF-stream which cause a smaller file size.
    Also, don't use high res images, 150dpi are far enough. You also don't need 16Bit depth as Designer only supports 8Bit images with RGB colors.

  • Reducing the file size of an XML Form

    We have created and launched a number of PDF Forms (created in LiveCycle) for our contacts to download, complete electronically, and email or fax back to us. The problem we are running into is that our email client allows us to only receive files that are 10 MB and smaller. We are finding that many of our PDF Forms that end-users are completing online cannot be emailed back to us because the file size is too large....which creates a problem.
    How do we troubleshoot this? We cannot seem to optimize in Acrobat because we receive an error message that says, "This PDF contains an Adobe XML form. Such PDFs cannot be optimized."
    HELP!
    Thank you!

    If possible, don't embed fonts.

  • XML FORM  -  How to save read-only controls with a default value

    Hello everybody,
    I have a 3 xml forms, each one to create one type of news. I need to use 3 because each of this forms has their own controls. But the control which indicates the type of news (asociated with a KM Predefined Property) must be common in the 3 forms, in order to use it on searches.
    The question is, how can I include in this forms a control:
      - Visible for the user
      - With a default value defined in the control properties (each form has a different value, corresponding with the type of news)
      - Read-only mode
      - The value showed in the control must be saved in the associated KM Predefined Property when the user clicks the Save button. 
    Anyone knows how to do this?
    What control can I use?
    I was thinking of trying with text boxes, but I don't find the way to make them unwritable (Read only mode).
    It is posible using labels?
    Thanks.
    Kind regards

    Hello Jose,
    I know you responded with a question... I see it in the email, but I don't see it here!  Very odd... but in response:
    The first thing I do when I open the Edit.xsl file is do a 'find' for the name of the text field that I want to be read-only (in my test case, it's 'location').  Repeat the find until you see something like:
    [code]<!--
    field location
    -->[/code]
    Below there is where I put the new code.  Mine looks like this:
    [code]- <xsl:choose>
    - <xsl:when test="location='' and ($editmode='create')">
    - <xsl:choose>
    - <xsl:when test="./xf:ValidationError/@tagname='location'">
    - <input name="location" size="30" type="text" class="urEdfiTxtEnbl" id="field_1157467268006">
    - <xsl:attribute name="tabindex">
    - <xsl:choose>
      <xsl:when test="$accessibilitymode='true'">21</xsl:when>
      <xsl:otherwise>3792</xsl:otherwise>
      </xsl:choose>
      </xsl:attribute>
    - <xsl:attribute name="value">
      <xsl:value-of select="''" />
      </xsl:attribute>
    - <xsl:attribute name="readonly">true</xsl:attribute>
      </input>
      </xsl:when>
    - <xsl:otherwise>
    - <input name="location" size="30" type="text" tabindex="3792" class="urEdfTxtEnbl" id="field_1157467268006">
    - <xsl:attribute name="value">
      <xsl:value-of select="''" />
      </xsl:attribute>
    - <xsl:attribute name="readonly">true</xsl:attribute>
      </input>
      </xsl:otherwise>
      </xsl:choose>[/code]
    I put the <xsl:attribute name="readonly"> in both places (when test, and when not test).  I'm not entirely sure if that's necessary, but that worked for me.
    Hope this helps,
    Fallon
