Text Symbol

Former Member — Thu, 09 Jan 2014 10:39:29 GMT

Dear Experts,

I am doing an report program. In that program I am using some text symbols and call to these text symbols to display the texts in output.

My requirement is, I gave the symbol number as 511 and I need to put some green color icon in text,So that when I use symbol number 511 that green should come in the out put.

Actual requirement is, from the out put screen, When I ll press PROCESS button, a document number will generate and if that document number is available in my Ztable, then in a pop screen it show like [ <green icon>This document is already available ]means text must be after that <green icon>.

Below is the egample...

Symbol Text

511 ...

in output popup it ll show like....

... This document is already available.

Regards,

Ajit Sarangi

Hi,

I don't understand your problem ..

you don't know how to write icon ? WRITE ... AS ICON .. and see the trans. ICON to get the right name

you don't know how to write icon in your pop-up ?

regards

Fred

@Girod,

I know the syntax for icon. But my problem is I want a symbol number as mentioned above, and when I call that number in my program that Green-ICON, Should come with the text in the popup screen, like...

... This document is already available.

Ajit

Try write this into your text symbol text-511 (without double quotes):

"@08@ Your text"

@08@ is ID of green light icon from ICON table.

Hi Ajit,

Kindly find the sample code.

type-pools: slis.

include <ICON>.

TYPES : BEGIN OF ty_output,

icon TYPE char4,

f2 type string,

end of ty_output.

data: i_output TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_output,

w_output type ty_output,

ls_fieldcat TYPE slis_fieldcat_alv,

lt_fieldcat TYPE slis_t_fieldcat_alv.

w_output-icon = icon_green_light.

w_output-f2 = 'Hi'.

append w_output to i_output.

clear: w_output.

*w_output-f1 = 2.

*w_output-f2 = 'Hi Hi'.

*append w_output to i_output.

*clear: w_output.

CLEAR ls_fieldcat.

ls_fieldcat-row_pos = '1'.

ls_fieldcat-col_pos = '1'.

ls_fieldcat-fieldname = 'ICON'.

ls_fieldcat-tabname = 'I_OUTPUT'.

ls_fieldcat-seltext_m = 'SELECT'.

ls_fieldcat-icon = 'X'.

APPEND ls_fieldcat TO lt_fieldcat.

CLEAR ls_fieldcat.

ls_fieldcat-row_pos = '1'.

ls_fieldcat-col_pos = '2'.

ls_fieldcat-fieldname = 'F2'.

ls_fieldcat-tabname = 'I_OUTPUT'.

ls_fieldcat-seltext_m = 'DESCRIPTION'.

*ls_fieldcat-icon = 'X'.

ls_fieldcat-outputlen = 50.

APPEND ls_fieldcat TO lt_fieldcat.

* Display data in a POPUP

CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_POPUP_TO_SELECT'

EXPORTING

i_zebra = 'X'

it_fieldcat = lt_fieldcat

i_tabname = 'I_OUTPUT'

* i_checkbox_fieldname = 'CHECKBOX'

TABLES

t_outtab = i_output.

this will display tarffic light in pop up

Hello Ajit,

Instead using the text symbols you could use the Message class.

First in SE91 Create a message class say 'ZMSG'

- Within this create message With Message Number 000 and Message Text as ' The Document & already available'

Now when you create a report use the message class as below

REPORT ycl_popup.

DATA: lv_doc_exists TYPE abap_bool value abap_true,

lv_doc_number TYPE i value '12345'.

IF lv_doc_exists = abap_true.

MESSAGE ID 'ZMSG' TYPE 'S' NUMBER '026'

WITH lv_doc_number sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

So now your output will be Green icon (Green tick mark icon- Because the type of message is a Success Message - 'S') followed by the text 'The Document 12345 already available'

Message type S = Success, E = Error, W = Warning , I = Information

Cheers,

Saras

Hello Ajit Sarangi,

Is your requirement is to display the message along with the traffic signel lights (3 colours namely Red, yellow and green). Based on the message you are displaying on the output it should highlight the respective color and other colors should be there but not highlighted. If yes then you can user application error handling method.

There are set of function modules,

BAL_LOG_CREATE

BAL_LOG_MSG_ADD

BAL_DSP_LOG_DISPLAY

BAL_LOG_MSGD_DELETE

At your initialization you can initialize the message log using

BAL_LOG_CREATE

When ever you come across the message to be displayed you can add the message to Log using

BAL_LOG_MSG_ADD

- during this process you have to specify the type of the message based on that the color will he highlighted automatically

At end of execution you can display the message log using

BAL_DSP_LOG_DISPLAY

- this displayes all the messages using the popup screen

At end you have to clear the log using

BAL_LOG_MSGD_DELETE

Hope this helps. Let me know you you want further information regarding this.

Thanks
