ALV problem. Please help.

[Former Member]

Hi guys. I created a report using ALV however when the ALV is displayed the report is overlapped by the header and the footer of the ALV. Is there a way for me to correct this? Or is there a setting? Please help. thanks in advance.

Hi Ferdinand,

Try to use the HTML TOP OF PAGE where you can set the heights for them.

I_HTML_HEIGHT_TOP(HTML_TOP_OF_PAGE height) and I_HTML_HEIGHT_END(HTML_END_OF_PAGE height).

Hope this will be helpful...

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

How do you use this function? This is the code im using right now. What should I pass in the parameters? Please help.

  refresh events.
  events-name = slis_ev_top_of_page.
  events-form = 'TOP_OF_PAGE'.
  append events.

  events-name = slis_ev_end_of_list.
  events-form = 'END_OF_LIST'.
  append events.

  g_repid = sy-repid.
  slis_layout-colwidth_optimize = 'X'.
  slis_layout-edit_mode = 'X'.
*-------------- Actual ALV Report printed here -------------*
  call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
       exporting
            i_interface_check     = ' '
            i_callback_program    = g_repid
            it_fieldcat           = gt_fieldcat[]
            is_layout             = slis_layout
            it_events             = events[]
            I_HTML_HEIGHT_TOP     = 10
            i_html_height_end     = 10
       tables
            t_outtab           = i_rep.

  if sy-subrc <> 0.

I tried using the I_HTML_HEIGHT_TOP and the i_html_height_end but the footer is still overlapping the report because there are a lot of text displayed in the footer. Am i doing anything wrong? Or did i forgot to set anything? How can I coorect the height of the footer so it does not overlap?

should I remove events? Im currently using it_events right now..

[jayanthi_jayaraman]

Hi,

Try without events.

Could you please give the entire code and let us clearly know what you want to achieve from the report?

[Former Member]

Hi Jayanthi,

This is my code for displaying the report. Howver, as you can see the footer contains a lot of text that's why it overlaps the report. When I execute the report, all I can see is the header and the footer. I have to drag the footer down to see the report. I would like to display the header, the report and the footer.

Hi Ferdinand

This may be a GUI problem. Be sure that your SAP GUI is up to date or let's pray for that the latest SAP GUI has no such bugs .

Is there a workaround if this is a bug?

[Former Member]

Hi,

Just see that while creating the ratio specified should be 95 or if it is more it will get overlapped.

IF cl_gui_alv_grid=>offline( ) IS INITIAL.

CREATE OBJECT o_dockingcontainer

EXPORTING

<b> ratio = '95'</b>

EXCEPTIONS

cntl_error = 1

cntl_system_error = 2

create_error = 3

lifetime_error = 4

lifetime_dynpro_dynpro_link = 5

others = 6.

IF sy-subrc NE 0.

MESSAGE i006 WITH text-e01."Error in creating Docking container

LEAVE LIST-PROCESSING.

ENDIF.

ENDIF.

CREATE OBJECT o_alvgrid

EXPORTING

i_parent = o_dockingcontainer.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Judith,

Where can i find the code that you specified?

[Former Member]

Hi,

I thought u r using Set_table_for_first_display.

Ok, u need not want to remove the it_events.

Check this link

http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/reporting/alv/alvgrid_events.htm

http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/reporting/alv/alvgrid.htm

Can get a fair idea.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Judith,

The header and the footer are actually displaying but the thing is the footer is overlapping the main part of the report since it contains a lot of text. Is there a way for me to set the height of the footer so that it won't overlap with the report?

[jayanthi_jayaraman]

Hi,

Just now I got this useful piece of information.

Check this link.They are reserving lines for footer.

http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/reporting/alv/alvgrid_enhanced.htm

Hope it helps you.

[Former Member]

Hi,

Thanks for the link. Unfortuantely, i fyou increase the text displayed in the footer it also increases the size of the footer which brings us back to the problem. =( Is there a way to set the height of the footer?

[Former Member]

Or is there a way to increase page-size for the alv?

[jayanthi_jayaraman]

Hi,

Rather increasing the size of ALV,it is better if we find the option to make the footer scrollable.

While executing the events,it's going inside a function module and there the coding is

no-scrolling.

That's is the reason for overlapping.

Or if we can fix the height of the footer,the scrolling will automatically come,I guess.

[Former Member]

Hi,

hmmm how do we that? I'm trying to debug the SAP program but I can't figure out what's happening... =(

[Former Member]

Hi Ferdinand,

Can we have a look at your fieldcatalog structure?

Thanks
