Collapse tray of a WDJ application from WDA application

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I have a SAP EP7.0 portal page which contains a Java WD iView and a WDA iView. Is it possible for the WDA Application to collapse/minimise the tray containing the WDJ application?

I am aware that the interface if_wd_portal_integration methods navigate_absolute can be used to open up an existing iView based on their PCD location.

Is this possible to get a reference to the iView ? I would be grateful for any ideas you may able to share.

TIA

John

Use portal events. That is one of the way i think and i would use.

Fire a portal event from WDA application ,Subscribe this event in WDJ application. On the vent handler set the tray property

Unfortunately the WD4J is a standard SAP iView so I have very little control over that, Baskaran. The WD4A is the one that I have built.

Thanks anyway.

Cheers

Hi,

I don't exactly understand the problem. You have one page with a WD4J and with a WD4A iView, i.e. a page with two iViews? You want to collapse the tray of the WD4J iView dependant on an action taken on the WD4A iView? Please clarify.

Hi Lukas,

Thanks for your reply and sorry about the delay in replying - we had a 'long' weekend.

Yes, I have one page with two iviews - WD4J (HR employee search) and WD4A (initate process for employee selected above). The WD4A is a subscriber to the urn:com.sap.mss.employeesearch->selection_changed event.

When an employee is selected in the WD4J, I would like to collapse (or even hide) the WD4J iView (to conserve space mainly).

I have considered an alternative approach to close the current window and start the WD4A in an external window but that has been hindered mainly by the possibility of a pop-up blocker being turned on in the browser.

Hope that clairifies things a bit. TIA for your help.

Cheers

John
