Hi,

The solution by Pravesh Verma should work fine.

Check the parameters(id of text edit, etc..) that you have mentioned are proper and correct.

Hi,

Can you just try binding an value attribute instead of model attribute to "Value" property of that UI element?

Hi Prasad,

Even if you are binding the TEXT EDIT ui element to a model attribute coming from the backend

Still you can use the method suggested by me to get the focus

You just need to get the attrinute info that particular attrinute

and in the eventhandler write the followin code

public void onActionEDIT(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
  {
    //@@begin onActionEDIT(ServerEvent)
	IWDAttributeInfo attrinfo = wdContext.nodeReturn().getNodeInfo().getAttribute(IPrivateTESTView.IReturnElement.MESSAGE);
		wdThis.wdGetAPI().requestFocus(wdContext.currentReturnElement(),attrinfo);

    
    //@@end
  }

here i am attribute message from the return node which is a model attribute and i am getting it fromthe backend

and its working fine for me

thanks

HI krishna,

Actually in that textedit UI element i am displaying data which is coming from backend.So i assigned model attribute to that TextEdit element.The value attribute VIEW of type IWDVIEW is not assiged to that TextEdit field.May be this is the problem i think.Can you tell me alternate solution

Thanks,

Hi,

You need not to bind the Context attribute "View" of type "IWDVeiw" to the UI element. This context attribute is to store the static view instance.

I dont think the model attribute is a problem.

Just confirm me. Is it displaying in editable mode. I mean can you enter some data at runtime into that UI element?

Can you just try binding an value attribute instead of model attribute to "Value" property of that UI element?

Hi,

Pls try as Parvesh said. 100% It works.

-->Before this check that you binded the String type context attribute to value property of TextEdit UI element.

--> ReadOnly should be false.

public static void wdDoModifyView(IPrivateTestView wdThis, IPrivateExportToExcelView.IContextNode wdContext, com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDView view, boolean firstTime)
  {
    //@@begin wdDoModifyView
    
	if(firstTime)
	{
		wdContext.currentContextElement().setView(view);
	}

}

In the edit button action:

IWDView view = wdContext.currentContextElement().getView();
IWDTextEdit textEdit = (IWDTextEdit)view.getElement("TextEdit1");
textEdit.requestFocus();

How to get the Id of the TextEdit UI element.

Go to the properties of the UI element --> Get from Id property.

Hi,

In the DoModifyView Give the below code and try if the curser is coming to the textedit, by default

textEdit.requestFocus();IWDTextEdit textEdit = (IWDTextEdit)view.getElement("TextEdit");

textEdit.requestFocus();

if not, click on the TextEdit and confirm the curser is coming,

Let me know the results then.

hello prasad,

To set the cursor focus on the text edit on click of the button edit, do the following

1. bind the UI element Text Edit to one context attribute (suppose it is a value attribute bound

directly to context root node named

source )

2. create an action for the click event of the Button EDIT (suppose its name is EDIT)

This will create an eventhandler OnActionEdit() in the implementation.

3. Now write the code in the event handler as shown below

    //@@begin javadoc:onActionEDIT(ServerEvent)
  /** Declared validating event handler. */
  //@@end
  public void onActionEDIT(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
  {
    //@@begin onActionEDIT(ServerEvent)
    IWDAttributeInfo attrinfo = wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute(IPrivateTEST_appView.IContextElement.SOURCE);
    wdThis.wdGetAPI().requestFocus(wdContext.currentContextElement(),attrinfo);
    //@@end
  }

4. deploy and run

done

Hope it is clear

Hello Prasad,

You can use the following code on the event of the edit button,

IWDAttributeInfo attribute= wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute(IPrivate<ViewName>.IContextElement.<AttributeName>);
	  wdThis.wdGetAPI().requestFocus(wdContext.currentContextElement()<or the node>, attribute); //Sets the Focus on input Field/ Text edit depending on the attribute to which UI element it is bind

Please revert back in cae you have any queries.

Ardhendu Sarkar.

Hi Prasad,

Follow these steps:

1) Create a attribute in the context named view of type IWDView.

2) Write following code in the wdDoModify Funtion:

if(firstTime){
	  wdContext.currentContextElement().setView(view);
 }

3) Now use following code in the onActionEvent of button:

IWDView view = wdContext.currentContextElement().getView();
IWDTextEdit textEdit = (IWDTextEdit)view.getElement("TEXTEDIT_ID");
textEdit.requestFocus();

This will take your cursor to the text edit box.

I hope this solves the issue. Please revert back incase you need further help on this.

Thanks and Regards

There is a method "requestFocus" with which you can call on action of the button click...

Check this thread:

You have to give TextEdit instead of inputField.
