example program for ALV list color coding?

[Former Member]

Hi guys...

I've been looking for an example program (or even a screenshot, actually) that gives an overview of the different color combinations in an ALV list (with the color code 'Cxxx' for: C, 1-9, 0-1, 0-1 )

Does someone know if such a program exists?

Regards,

Rob

Here is the color coding.

* Colour code :                                                 *
* Colour is a 4-char field where :                              *
*              - 1st char = C (color property)                  *
*              - 2nd char = color code (from 0 to 7)            *
*                                  0 = background color         *
*                                  1 = blue                     *
*                                  2 = gray                     *
*                                  3 = yellow                   *
*                                  4 = blue/gray                *
*                                  5 = green                    *
*                                  6 = red                      *
*                                  7 = orange                   *
*              - 3rd char = intensified (0=off, 1=on)           *
*              - 4th char = inverse display (0=off, 1=on)       *

Also, check program demo_list_format_color_1 . This gives you examples of the combinations as well.

Hi,

Following example is for coloring row in alv

Add a field in the last as COLOR

data : begin of i_ekko.
        include structure ekko.
data : color(4) type c.
data : end of i_ekko.

in layout

gs_layout-info_fname    = 'COLOR'.

According to your condition allocate the color codes

  loop at i_ekko where < use your where condition>.
    move 'C311' to i_ekko-color.   " << pass your color code here 
    modify i_ekko index sy-tabix.
  endloop.

then

    call method grid1->set_table_for_first_display

and pass i_ekko as output table

hi Rob,

if the field EMPHASIZE is set to 'X', the ALV uses a predefined color for highlighting the cloumn. if the character field begins with 'C'(Color code), the remaining number have the following meaning..

<b>EMPHASIZE = 'CXYZ'</b>

<b>C : color code

X : color number.

X has values 1 to 9.

Y: intensified display on / off.

Y has values 0 and 1, '0' = off and '1' = on.

Z : inverse dispaly on / off.

Z has values 0 and 1, '0' = off and '1' = on.</b>

genaral syntax: wa_orig_fields-EMPHASIZE = 'CXYZ'

X = 0 in this case color depends on GUI.

Y = 0 means case intensified is OFF.

Z = 0 means inverse is OFF.

the color depends on the 'X' value

OFF or COL_BACKGROUND 0 depends on GUI background

1 or COL_HEADING 1 grey-blue headers

2 or COL_NORMAL 2 light grey list bodies

3 or COL_TOTAL 3 yellow totals

4 or COL_KEY 4 blue-green key columns

5 or COL_POSITIVE 5 green positive threshold value

6 or COL_NEGATIVE 6 red negative threshold value

7 or COL_GROUP 7 violet Control levels.

Thanks, you're all very helpful.

I never paid much attention to the SDN forum and contacted my colleagues for help first, but I'm getting convinced that this is the most helpful community on the web

thumbs up to all of you.
