Hi All,

Thanks and Regards.

Do you see the graphical layout editor and input fields are missing OR you see the classical layout editor? If problem is second one, check your computer name. It should not contain any characters other than English alphabet (not even space).

Edit: I saw your screenshot after I wrote the message. Sorry, can't help.

In the Old editor I am able to see the Input Fields but in when I Go TO- Utilities--> Settings--> Check 'Graphical Layout Editor'. In this the Input screens are not visible. Except Input fields all other is visible or editable Texts Buttons etc etc ..

Rajender,

Did you check the attributes of the field. This may be hidden from display. I would suggest you to go to SE80, give the program name and check for the screen. In this screen you will get all the fields where you can see the characteristics in different tabs. It may be possible that the fields may have very small length to be displayed on the screen, or it may be possible that the co-ordinates of the fileds are somewhere else. This will be known in attributes.

HI Rajender,

In the new editor, go to arrtibutes and check for the display length. The field length can be more, but the display length can be adjusted and can be made to fit on the screen. You need to decrease the display length, which is currently set to full fiend length.

Hi Rajendert

I have the same problem.
In my program, I can not find where checking attributes setting is.
Could you show pictures about checking attributes setting?

Please check your FONT settings and adjust accordingly.

Hi,

Check out note 2214687.

Problem seems to be with GUI 740 as well. If there is no space between the screen fields they tend not to display.
