Hai,

No there is no screen grouping in custom container, but you can enable & disable a control using the container methods (<b>SET_ENABLE</b>) of CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER. Try it.

to disable the long text . use

protect_lines method of class cl_gui_textedit.

hi,

use class CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT -

method: SET_ENABLE_EDITING_PROTECTED

Hi experts,

My code is like this..

DATA: txt     TYPE REF TO cl_gui_textedit.
DATA: from_idx TYPE i.
DATA: to_idx TYPE i.

    CALL METHOD txt->protect_lines
      EXPORTING
        from_line = from_idx
        to_line   = to_idx.
        protect_mode                  = txt->true
        ENABLE_EDITING_PROTECTED_text = txt->true.

why it is not working?

I would use the other method but this one should be ok too...

1. what values are you passing in the parameters

2. have you 'created' the txt object and it's parent container? ie.

for these object declarations:

data: editor_obj type ref to cl_gui_textedit,

editor_cont type ref to cl_gui_custom_container.

I had to:

create object editor_cont exporting container_name = 'C_TEXT'.

create object editor_obj exporting parent = editor_cont

wordwrap_mode = cl_gui_textedit=>wordwrap_at_fixed_position

wordwrap_position = 79

wordwrap_to_linebreak_mode = cl_gui_textedit=>true.

Hi Neil,

What is the best way to save the text using STXH table with my container(txt).

If you are using cl_gui_textedit you can use the set_readonly_mode method:

data: editor_obj type ref to cl_gui_textedit,

editor_cont type ref to cl_gui_custom_container.

call method editor_obj->set_readonly_mode

exporting readonly_mode = cl_gui_textedit=>true.

[sushant_singh]

while creating object of the editor

pass wordwrap_mode = 2

wordwrap_position = 70

70 is the no. of characters in a single line of editor.

now use method protect_lines.

now ur code will work.
