Web dynpro specific theme doesnot work in portal

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I followed the exact steps from this blog which mentions the procedure for colorful web dynpro application:

/people/lisha.peter/blog/2005/07/07/make-your-webdynpro-application-theme-specific

When I run my web dynpro app it does take the custom theme. But when I integrate it to portal, the web dynpro iview doesnot take up the custom theme.

I searched many threads but could not find a solution.

Could any one tell me if I am missing anything or do need to set something?

Thanks

Instead of a web dynpro iview, we created a url iview and it worked...

Hi Laxmi,

try the following URL replacing the relevant details, i chose one of our Travel Management applications as an example:

<b>http://<servername>:50000/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/ess_{tra/AllMyTrips?sap-cssurl=http://<servername>:50000/webdynpro/resources/sap.com/tc}wd~dispwda/global/SSR/themes/sap_chrome/ur/ur_ie6.css</b>

follow this pattern and you should be fine.

Hi Raj,

thanks for your reply.

I want one specific web dynpro to use this custom theme. Previously, I did exactly as u told in method 2 but specified the sap-cssurl as follows :

sap-cssurl=http://<Host-Name>:<Port-Nummer>/webdynpro/resources/sap.com/tc_wddispwda/global/SSR/themes/NewTheme

As opposed to what you told:

sap-cssurl=http://<Host-Name>:<Port-Nummer>/webdynpro/resources/sap.com/tc_wddispwda/global/SSR/themes/NewTheme/ur/ur_ie5.css

Do we have to specify the css style sheet also in the url?

Thanks

Hi Laxmi,

do you want all Web Dynpros to use this custom theme or just specific ones?

1. If you want all WDs to use custom Theme then do the following, change the <b>sap.theme.default</b> parameter URL to point to your custom theme and make sure <b>sap.useWebDynproStyleSheet</b> value is set to true.

2. another way is to append this to your WD application URL which enables on specific apps to utilise the custom theme, <b>sap-cssurl=http://<Host-Name>:<Port-Nummer>/webdynpro/resources/sap.com/tc_wddispwda/global/SSR/themes/sap_chrome/ur/ur_ie5.css</b>

*hope this helps

Regards,

Raj
