Hi De,

Just insert your Check box in the Script Editor from go to INSERT -->CHARACTERS -->SAP SYMBOLS or SAP ICONS

SYM_CHECKBOX Select this and activate your smart form.

" I had the same problem as i could not see the Check box but when I took printout it is visible

Hi,

If the check bax you are expecting is for interactive purpose, then you need to go for adobe forms. If it is just for showing in the layout then you can try below 2 ways.

1. Upload an image of the check box to your SAP system from SE78. Print this graphic as you normally print the LOGO. ( you can create a node of type graphic)

2. Create a text element and print a single dot. Set the output options of the text element as below.

Select check box "Lines with" under the frames section. Give the appropriate spacing and width say 1 PT each. Now it shows a small box with the frames. If it is in main window, then you may need to create a template for controlling the width and hight of the element.

Thanks,

Vinod.

Hi,

SAP symbols will not be displayed in print preview but they will be visible in printout you can use SYM_LARGE_SQUARE for empty and SYM_CHECKBOX for selected checkbox.
