ALV Grid: exclude a menu button

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have a strange problem here:

I'm excluding several buttons and menu buttons from the default alv grid toolbar. But one the the menu buttons doesn't behave like the others.

cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_fc_views

and

cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_mb_view

both remove the menu entries but not the button itself !

Other menu buttons like

cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_mb_subtot

are removed properly.

Any ideas on this one ?

Best regards,

Patrick Baer

Hi Patrick

Are you sure about the button code you are passing is the one for the button you want to be excluded.

Serdar,

not completely sure but the codes do change the menu button in fact by removing the 'dropdown' part of the button that gives the user selection possibilities.

Problem is, that I am working on a german frontend but I will try to translate:

the button that I am trying to remove has the tool tip text 'List output'

P.S.: by the way: I'm using your document "An Easy Reference for ALV GRID CONTROL" which is fantastic !

I would like to bring this topic to everybodys attention again since it is still unsolved.

Thank you very much,

Hi Patrick,

Do I understand it correctly that the button does not disappear, but is merely <i>greyed out</i> ?

Hmm, not really

Let me try to explain via an example:

in the object navigator -> repository browser you have a menu button for the favourites. It is a dropdown menu on the right combined with a button on the left.

In my case the dropdown part of the button on the right is removed but the left button part remains and it's still clickable or not greyed out respectively.

what i understand is that the "views" icon is not removed but only some of the entries withing the views options (list, grid, excel, etc).

to remove views you need to exclude the following.

MC_FC_VIEWS

MC_FC_VIEW_CRYSTAL

MC_FC_VIEW_EXCEL

MC_FC_VIEW_GRID

MC_FC_VIEW_LOTUS

Raja,

you are correct - all of the options are removed but the button itself remains.

I tried your suggestion but sad enough it didn't work either. Same effect as just MC_FC_VIEWS excluded i.e. button remains without options.

The suggestion i am going to give you is not a nice one, but would work.

i had one alv where i had removed all the standard buttons. and the following is the contents of the exclusion table.

place all of them into the exclusion table and remove one by one from the exclusion table to check out.

Raja,

got it now

I hate brute force approaches to solve a problem but in this case in fact it seemed to be the last remaining possibility. So I went through all the exclusion properties and figured out the right combination:

mc_fc_views AND <i>mc_fc_print_prev</i> must be excluded.

The latter one was missing because I didn't really associate the button with print preview...

Hi all,

where can I look for the mc_mb_* attributes af cl_gui_alv_grid?

Is better work with mc_fc* or with mc_mb* to exclude a lot of pushbutton in toolbar?
