ALV Menu Button

former_member182048 — Thu, 23 Dec 2004 08:53:56 GMT

I am trying without sucess to add an icon to an ALV toolbar menu button. The button appears with text but no icon.

I have seen it work before just wondering what i am missing.

eg.

METHOD on_menu_button.

CALL METHOD e_object->add_function

EXPORTING fcode = 'ZCHANGE'

icon = icon_change

text = 'Contact'.

Cheers

Check this program <b>BCALV_GRID_05</b> and I am not sure whether you are doing it correctly.

All you need to do is :

a) Define a class

b) add a method for event toolbar

c) in the method fill the internal table

e_object->mt_toolbar

Hi JP

The code you've sent is not for adding a button to ALV toolbar, but for adding a function when a menu button is pressed. And as far as I know, it does not support icons for the moment although there is such a parameter.

To have a icon for a button <b>on</b> the ALV toolbar, I guess you know, but at the event "toolbar" assign the icon name to the relevant field.

For more information, you can have a look at the tutorial <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/documents/a1-8-4/an%20easy%20reference%20for%20alv%20grid%20control.pdf">"An Easy Reference For ALV Grid Control"</a>.
