Look and feel of Index page in NWBC 5.0 PL7

[Former Member]

Hi,

Initially, I was working on NWBC 5.0 PL 2 and now I have installed PL 7

After login the Index screen looks like below, which is different than the one I used to work on.

The description used to be beside Icons and with a clear partition between other icons.

I tried changing theme's but could not get the look it had initially. Did I miss anything ?

Can someone help me in restoring to the original screen of NWBC ?

Best Regards,

Uday

Hi Uday,

It looks like the value you have entered for the theme isn't being picked up properly, so either you mistyped it or maybe used the wrong table.

Be aware that you need to use the UI2 tables for custom themes, this won't work in NWBC_CFG. The table you are looking for is /UI2/NWBC_CFGCV with parameters

filters = *

Parameter name = theme

value = name of your theme

Make sure to delete the entry in NWBC_CFG as well.

Once you done this, then edit your entry in the system selector to http://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/ui2/nwbc

Let me know if it works.

Hi Jakob,

Thanks for your help.

When using NWBC 5.0 PL2, I have maintained parameter 'value' in the table /ui2/nwbc_cfgcv. It was working for PL2.

Now after PL7, I have deleted the parameter and maintained the same once again in the table /ui2/nwbc_cfgcv. It is working.

Best Regards,

Hi Jakob,

I have a query on this same issue. Do let me know if I need to raise this in a new post. I was not sure as this is on same topic/issue.

Table: NWBC_CFG   has no values

Table: /UI2/NWBC_CFGCV  has my custom theme with filter=*, parameter name=Theme, value = name of custom theme.

My custom theme is working fine with http://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/ui2/nwbc

I am trying to access the standard design (without theme) in parallel with my custom theme, what is the entry I need to give in system selector.  When I use just http://<host>:<port>/nwbc    (without /sap/bc/ui2) , the links are again disturbed as mentioned in my first post "nwbc screen.jpg".

Can't I use the standard theme once I have custom theme in /ui2/nwbc_cfgcv or is there a way out ?

Best Regards,

Uday

Hi Uday,

Let me rephrase to see if i understand you correctly.

You want to have the theme on the NWBC pages, such as index, new tab etc. But the standard theme on the WDA's?

If so, then this is a known "feature" that once you add the theme entry into /UI2/NWBC_CFGCV, then it affects everything.

You can add the wdthemeroot parameter to your WDA's in PFCG, which should then trigger the theme you want.

Another option is to add it into the WD_GLOBAL_SETTING. However i am not sure if that does superseed the /UI2/NWBC_CFGCV  table. But it is worth a try.
