Hi. Is there some possilbility to control dynamically which icon appears in the SCREEN? Or maybe there is some way to set icon which was added to the SCREEN invisible depending on some conditions? Greetings. P.

Hi,

First, create the button on the screen. Give a name like 'THISBUTTON' in the name field of the button(not the text field), click the OUTPUT Only checkbox. Now, in your ABAP program, define a field for this button that you created and set the value of the icon in the PBO.

• In this sample program, there is a button on screen 100

• which has the name of THISBUTTON, and is set as output

• only.

report zkiran_0001.

<b>type-pools: icon.

data: thisbutton(30) Type c.</b>

call screen 100.

*& Module status_0100 OUTPUT

&----

• text

module status_0100 output.

<b>write icon_green_light as icon to thisbutton.

concatenate thisbutton 'This is the button' into thisbutton

separated by space.</b>

endmodule. " status_0100 OUTPUT

*& Module user_command_0100 INPUT

• text

module user_command_0100 input.

leave program.

endmodule. " user_command_0100 INPUT

The usual recommendation is to call the ICON_CREATE function module module to define your icons - this gives you extra functionality such as being able to specify the quickinfo for it at runtime... have a read through:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/59/348efa61c611d295750000e8353423/content.htm

as this gives a lot more info, and an example.
