Web Dynpro ALV grid column colour

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have tried to set the colour of a column for my web dynpro alv with the below code but it the colour for this column has not changed - it seems to remain the standard colour. Is there something else i need to do?

DATA: lt_columns TYPE salv_wd_t_column_ref

, ls_columns TYPE salv_wd_s_column_ref

, lr_column TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column

.

lt_columns = lo_value->if_salv_wd_column_settings~get_columns( ).

LOOP AT lt_columns INTO ls_columns.

IF ls_columns-id CS 'TOTAL_'.

lr_column = ls_columns-r_column.

lr_column->set_cell_design( cl_wd_abstr_master_table_col=>e_cell_design-positive ). "CL_WD_TABLE_COLUMN=>E_CELL_DESIGN-GROUP_LEVEL1

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

Hi Samir,

You will have to create an attribut WDUI_TABLE_CELL_DESIGN and bind this attribute with the cell design property of the column. Check this wiki link [https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/ABAP%20Web%20Dynpro%20ALV%20-%20Change%20Cell%20Colour%20based%20on%20Content], it will solve your issue.

Hi,

That seems like a lot to do just to change the column color. I just need to do it for the total columns. There is no reference to the method lr_column->set_cell_design( ) in the wiki, but instead it has lr_column->set_cell_design_fieldname( ). What does this mean?

Hi Samir,

lr_column->set_cell_design_fieldname( 'CELL_DESING' )

This means that we are binding our attribute 'CELL_DESIGN' ( which has to be create ) with our column .

Now just pass your color to this attribute and the column would be colored.

This is the correct approach.

Hi,

I just tried to add the attribute but my alv grid columns are part of a structure and it doesnt like me adding an field cell_design to the structure with that type

Hi

Goto Context, select the node and scroll at the bottom and remove the structure name from there and then try adding the attribute.
