Hi All,

How can we positioned different UI elements on a specific location?. I mean whenever we drag and drop them on a view they seem to take their place automatically. Is there a way to give them a shape ( vertical/horizontal ) & position explicitly . I’ll appreciate a quick reply from you people.

Regards,

Laeeq.

Hi Laeeq,

There is no way to absolute position something in Webdynpro ABAP (at least not that I've found), but there are some ways you can get things relatively in the way you want them. Try looking at the samples (SALV_WD_DEMO_TABLE*) and you'll see how they use a combination of transparent containers, groups, and the matrix layout to get things into position.

It does not allow for very fine grained control, but you should be able to achieve the look you are going for.
