Automatic scrolling

[Former Member]

HI ALL,

I have this problem. I have a hierachical table with many rows. I have a button "SEARCH" and this functionality allows to find and selected a row with the first field equal at the element that I want to search. Is it possible to scrolling automatically the table until at the selected row?

Practically I want that at the end of my search the visualization of my table is positioned automatically on the selected row as an automatic scrolling. Is it possible this in WDA?

Which is the class of this method (set_focus)?

[gill367]

Not exactly set focus

it is request _focus.

you can request focus for a particular element and particular attribute.

use this sample code for reference..

data: MY_CONTEXT_NODE    type ref to IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE,
        MY_CONTEXT_ELEMENT type ref to IF_WD_CONTEXT_ELEMENT,
        MY_RUNTIMEAPI       type ref to IF_WD_VIEW_CONTROLLER.
 
  MY_CONTEXT_NODE = WD_CONTEXT->GET_CHILD_NODE('<nodename>' ).
  MY_CONTEXT_ELEMENT = MY_CONTEXT_NODE->GET_ELEMENT( 1 ).  " get the element here
  MY_RUNTIMEAPI = WD_THIS->WD_GET_API( ).
  MY_RUNTIMEAPI->REQUEST_FOCUS( ATTRIBUTE = <attribute name>' CONTEXT_ELEMENT = MY_CONTEXT_ELEMENT ).

Ok I use this code:

CALL METHOD MY_RUNTIMEAPI->REQUEST_FOCUS

EXPORTING

CONTEXT_ELEMENT = lo_nd_element

ATTRIBUTE = 'TREE_COLUMN_TEXT'.

where lo_nd_element is my selected row, and 'TREE_COLUMN_TEXT' is the name of the first field of my row.

Unfortunately this code does not reflect any changes... Where is my error?

[gill367]

what is the field type. is it a text view.

try to focus input field if you have one .

thanks

No, the field TREE_COLUMN_TEXT is a string, lo_nd_element is a selected row of my table...

[Former Member]

the field TREE_COLUMN_TEXT is a "link_to_action"...

HI gc,

sorry mate, i checked using a test application for the same scenario.

the focus is going there but automatic scrolling is still not happening.

so i guess its not possible to get the same.

can't you display all the rows.

thanks
