Can't set Personas HTMLViewer Content in the SAP GUI

[former_member402454]

I am trying to add an SAPUI5 tree as a htmlViewer window next to a standard SAP screen viewable from the SAP GUI.  I have everything working wonderfully from the webGUI, however when I try it from the SAP GUI, 7.40, patch level 8, anytime I set the content field of the HTMLViewer, I get a messages saying "Object doesn't support this property or method". 

I have simplified the code (a lot) to show the problem, in this scenario, I am just trying to display the word "Testing" as content in the HTMLViewer.  This works fine when I execute the script in the webGUI, but it gives me the error on the SAP GUI.  I have "/.*" and "(http|https):\/\/*" listed, and this does not seems to be the same case as when the HTMLViewer hits a whitelist problem.  Here is my super-simplified script:

//session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/htmlViewerPersonas_1463578215093").setProperty("content","Testing");   //I've tried it both ways

session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/htmlViewerPersonas_1463578215093").content = 'Testing';

Please help

Thanks,

Jeff

Hello Jeff,

this seems to be a defect in the SAP Gui for Windows (I tried it myself in the same GUI release and it didn't work for me either). Please open a CSS incident for component BC-FES-WIN.

Thanks,

Hello Jeff,

I just got a repsonse from the WinGui development team. The corresponding fix is currently planned to be included in SAP Gui, 7.40, PL9.

Thanks,

Clemens

Thank you very much.  I hadn't put the OSS Message in yet, I was first going to upgrade to Personas 3.0 SP03, we are on SP02 now, but it is good to know that it is an expected SAP GUI fix.

Thanks,

Jeff
