F4 help issue

Hi Experts,

I have a strange issue. I have a field on the screen to which I have provided F4 help. When I do a F4 help for it, a screen having 10 columns with 'N' no:of rows gets displayed. But in one of our user's system only 5 columns are getting displayed along with values. The remaining columns are getting cut off. Can someone tell me the reason for this behaviour?

Regards,

Kalyan

you said that you have provided f4 help , for a particular screen field. you did not mentioned weather you have implemented f4 help using search help or did you call explicitly a function module , i

if you are using search help then please you can check the parameter option in search help and make sure the postiton & import & export option for all the fileds are correctly set & also check DIALOG BEHAVIOR option, this may restrict your fields display.

and if the above solution doesent work then you can call explicity the function module

call function 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'

populate the internal table with your desired fields and pass it to the function module .

this should be called at the 'at selection-screen on value-request for 'SCREENFIELD NAME' EVENT.

I THINK THIS SHOULD WORK

Hi Kapil,

Thanks for ur response.

Hi All,

We have checked in one of the systems with sapgui 720. In that version the columns are getting removed in F4 help where as in sapgui 710 all the columns are getting displayed. What should i suggest to the user?

Hi Kalyan,

You have not told, whether this is a custom F4 help by a FM or is it a SAP standard F4 help by check table?

Hi All,

We have used our own custom built FM not a standard one. The F4 help is working fine in sapgui 710 but not in sapgui 720.

In a SAPGui 720 there are more "Customzing" options in F4 mode, call tbe searchelp, and right-click, select "Customize", there you can change options for the current F4 or for every F4.
