Hi friends,

I have two doubts,

I try to create new screen, Dynpro type 1 option (Selection Dynpro) is disable mode why?

2. I saw already created screen Its looks totally different (no selection dynpro) why?

Regards,

Nirojan.

A "selection screen" cannot be created manually (via the screen painter), they are created by the ABAP compiler based on ABAP instructions like PARAMETERS, etc.

Ok.

Lets say, I want to copy existing screen painter. I saw attributes tab its selected screen type as selection screen (You can see above 2nd screenshot).

when I try to create new screen painter (1st screenshot). the screen type looks differently why?

Is there any alternative way to copy the exiting screen painter?

Regards

Nirojan.

Hi Nirojan,

The only way you can 'copy' the existing screen painter is to include all the parameters, select-options and
selection-screen commands from the generated selection screen you are looking at to your program.
