Hi ,
I have developed some test dashboards using design studio.
I used your and other SAP user's articles/videos for the same.
I have a couple of questions-
1) While developing dashboards/html pages, is there a way to see/change the html source code from the design studio?
2) Is there are way to apply tables/div tags in the application?
If 'grid' components can be used as tables, how do we specify Border styles (border colors, widths for components) ?
The 'script' column in the properties pane does not exist for a grid component. So, I am not able to specify there.
version info -
Traditionally, to develop our company's existing dashboards I used SAP's web app designer 3.5. It provides an easy way to manipulate/massage the html code.
Now, we are exploring Business Objects client tools. We are on SAP BOBj enterprise Sp5, patch 1. I successfully connected to the existing BEX queries.
-- Thanks in advance!
Thank you for posting!
I am not aware of any display of HTML
Yes, I believe the grid does replace the table.
You have some great suggestions - I have asked the SAP product owner to create a space for Design Studio on Idea Place so you can post these suggestions there.
Regards,
Tammy

I searched the help at http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/AAD10/en/analysis10SP01_ad_user_en.pdf and I don't see a way to do this in the current tool.
I will post when the Idea Place for Design Studio is open so you can post this as an idea there.

Thank you Tammy!
I was hoping to find a business objects client tool, that is as flexible as the SAP web app designer.
If the html code were available, it would help the developers like me to interact with the most granular details of the application/dashboard. Hence the questions.
I appreciate your guidance. Thanks again.

Hi Srikanth,
To define border styles for grid components use the existing default html generated by the product and just create a custom css file with your css formatting.
For example:
The following css (placed in the custom_grid.css file):
.grid-style-1 {
border: 1px solid orange;
}
.grid-style-1 tr:nth-child(1) td:nth-child(1) {
border: 1px solid blue;
}
.grid-style-1 tr:nth-child(1) td:nth-child(2) {
border: 1px solid green;
}
Will create the following formatting to the grid:
To change the grid properties via scripting you don't necessarily need that the grid component itself has events available. A grid is a static element, it has in general no sense to attach some events to it as other components have. Most of the time then not, the style of the GRID is the same starting with the first opening of the report (bi app).
Just do the scripting in the "On Startup" Event of the whole Application via the available GRID methods:
