Webdynpro TextEdit in Chrome: line break at the beginning. Any clue?

[sergey_korolev]

Hello All,

We experience the problem in WDA with at least Chrome and Firefox browsers: when rendering Webdynpro TextEdit UI control it always adds line break at the beginning of the text. IE renders this correctly. It can be reproduced in WDR_TEST_UI_ELEMENTS test application.
In Chrome after setting arbitrary text in TextEdit we see the following (in debug we can see no line breaks in string):

While in IE 11 we see this:

Is there any workaround or solution?

Thanks.

Hi Christoph,

It's been a while since the problem occurred. Actually it was solved after asking SAPsupport.

This is the quote from SAP support discussion:

As I can see from your attachment, the Unified Rendering is not up to

date. In the newer versions lots of such errors are corrected, so I

recommend to update it.

To perform an update please follow these steps:

- Please read the following Wiki on how to perform the version

update:http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/x/2oQCFQ

- Before applying, you should check if your SNOTE is up-to-date.

- If you have memory warnings - such as TSV_NEW_PAGE_ALLOC_FAILED -

during the process of applying the UR notes, see note 1563641 for

resolution.

- Once all the notes are applied, make sure that you delete then

server and client cache according to the last screenshot of

New informations : it could definitivly be linked to html generation and more precisly to theme and css.

This issue is known also outside of SAP world and the solution will come from SAP notes for sure.

Here's an example of what you can find :

There are others on different navigators and UI Elements all pointing out the same issue.

Hum... Unfortunatly it's often linked to html generation by Web Dynpro framework.

You should try opening an oss note to address this issue.

You could also try to get the html code of the page in order to check what's inside and if a line break is added.
