Hi Murali,

I'm not sure it's possible to subscribe to button click events in the OVS window. I don't see mention of this functionality in either NW 7.02 or NW 7.3. Instead maybe you could...

In the ON_OVS event handler method, set a flag in context to indicate the user had opened OVS. Then you could write code in WDDOMODIFYVIEW to enable the buttons if OVS has been opened but the input field is still blank. This would indicate the user had opened OVS but cancelled out before making a selection.

Cheers,

Amy

Hi Murali,

May be the problem cannot be solved with an OVS help, but you can implement your own component, which is used for value help. Then you have more flexibility in your implementation.

Hi Murali,

1. Create an attribute 'ENABLE' type 'WDY_BOOLEAN'.

2. Bind the attribute to the button property 'ENABLE'.

3 on action of the cancel buttion, set the value abap_true to enable the buttion.

sample code: lo_el_btn->set_attribute(  name = 'ENABLE  value = abap_true ').

This should solve your requirement.

Note : As mentioned in the requirement, we dont have option of disabling the button, when OVS window popup is displayed, but buttons can be enable as requested.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Murali,

I appreciate if you could clarify me why you need to enable or disable the buttons when OVS search help window is open.

When OVS search help window is open, no further actions are allowed on main window as popup window of OVS exist. As soon as the OVS window closes, all the buttons/actions are accessible/enabled.

Hope my understanding is correct.

Hi you are correct.

No need to bind to enable/disable.

Hi,

Bind the Enable property of  buttons to context , Subscribe to the event CANCEL  of OVS in your webdynpro component and in that event handler change Enable property as you like.
