How to create quickly a large number of UI Elements on a view ?

[Former Member]

Hi Folks,

my task is to create several views with many many fields.

Is there an other way than clicking them field per field in se80??

i.e. Inserting rows in tables WDY_UI_ELEMENT* or something - maybe a FM

Thanks in advance

Hi and Thanks,

I already tried this wizard, but unfortunately you're not able to create containers, trays and so on...

This is absolutely, 100% NOT supported by SAP. There are no public APIs for creation of Web Dynpro Component development objects.

As suggested, the container form wizard is generally what people use to speed the process. You put in a framework of containers and then run the form wizard on each container to quickly generate the inner UI elements.

Hi Michael,

You may first build the context first and then in the layout tab for the view, right click on ROOTUIELEMENTCONTAINER and then select create container form option. This way you will be able to create as many UI elements as you want in one go.
