Display current time

Former Member — Wed, 29 Nov 2006 12:51:10 GMT

Hi friends,

I am currently working on a bar chart which has a time axis ( a horizontal time line with dates and times displayed on top of the chart like a scale).

Now, my requirement is to place a small pointer ( a vertical line) at the current time on current date. Is there any 'BARC_' function module that takes care of this automatically? If not, any ideas on how I can achieve the same by programming.

Thanks in Advance.

Best Regards,

Srinath.

Hi Dominic,

I knew date and time system fields. My question was about the way to visualise this in Bar chart (GANTT chart).

Thank you.

Regards,

Srinath.

Hi All,

Solved it myself. We have method CREATE_DATELINE in the class CL_GUI_BARCHART which displays current date and time as a vertical line in the GANTT chart.

Exporting parameters are Color type (B5 etc), and date (Time stamp).

Thanks for the inputs, anyway.
