Hide fields on screen without loop at screen/endloop

[Former Member]

Dear gurus,

Is there any way to hide fields on screen without using loop at screen statement? There are too many fields on the screen and it would take a lot of time to loop through them.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Prashant,

I believe I mentioned screen not selection screen. The field is a dictionary field.

Thanks.

Hi...

1. Assign the Screen fields to Modification group (in the Screen painter field attributes)

Then in the PBO module.

LOOP AT SCREEN.

IF SCREEN-GROUP1 = 'ABC'.

SCREEN-INVISIBLE = 1.

SCREEN-ACTIVE = 0.

MODIFY SCREEN.

EXIT.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

this will give a better performance of LOOP.

@Varma,

That would definitely improve performance, but can't it be done without the 'LOOP AT SCREEN' statement???

Thanks.

Hi Sanjay..

If you want to Hide the fields only during runtime based on the Condition then it is must to use the LOOP...

You can use MODIF-ID

E.g.

PARAMETERS show_all AS CHECKBOX USER-COMMAND flag.

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK b1 WITH FRAME.

PARAMETERS: p1 TYPE c LENGTH 10,

p2 TYPE c LENGTH 10,

p3 TYPE c LENGTH 10.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK b1.

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK b2 WITH FRAME.

PARAMETERS: p4 TYPE c LENGTH 10 MODIF ID bl2,

p5 TYPE c LENGTH 10 MODIF ID bl2,

p6 TYPE c LENGTH 10 MODIF ID bl2.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK b2.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.

LOOP AT SCREEN.

IF show_all <> 'X' AND

screen-group1 = 'BL2'.

screen-active = '0'.

ENDIF.

MODIFY SCREEN.

ENDLOOP.

Please reward points if useful.
