OO ALV key fields not colored, why

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I have 3 key fields that are not highlighted. They are locked in place when scrolling occurs, so they are recognized as key fields. I thought that key fields were highlighted by default. Can anyone see why the following portion of code doesn't produce highlighted key fields/

Thanks

Bruce

call function 'LVC_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE'

exporting

i_bypassing_buffer = 'X'

i_structure_name = 'ZALV_ZFAPO039'

changing

ct_fieldcat = pt_fieldcat.

*******************************************

loop at pt_fieldcat into ls_fcat.

*

if ls_fcat-fieldname = 'LIFNR' or

ls_fcat-fieldname = 'PAYEE' or

ls_fcat-fieldname = 'WRBTR'.

ls_fcat-key = 'X'. " set ALV key field

ls_fcat-emphasize = 'X'. " highlight column

endif.

modify pt_fieldcat from ls_fcat.

*

Endloop.

********************************************

• Set layout options:

ps_layout-zebra = 'X'.

*

call method g_grid->set_table_for_first_display

exporting

i_bypassing_buffer = 'X'

is_layout = ps_layout

it_toolbar_excluding = lt_exclude

changing

it_fieldcatalog = pt_fieldcat

it_outtab = pt_outtab.

*********************************************

• set editable cells to ready for input

call method g_grid->set_ready_for_input

exporting

i_ready_for_input = 1.

Hello Bruce

The following line of coding is not required (indeed, it is not correct):

ls_fcat-emphasize = 'X'. " highlight column

Simply drop this line an the key columns should have the right colour.

Note: field EMPHASIZE takes the following values:

- 1 digit = 'C'

- 2 digit = 1-7 (color)

- 3 digit = 0 or 1 (1 = emphasize)

Example: 'C510' = green, intensified

Uwe,

This code would not color the fields, but locked the fields in place.

ls_fcat-key = 'X'. " set ALV key field

• ls_fcat-emphasize = 'C410'.

This code colored the fields, but the field are not locked.

• ls_fcat-key = 'X'.

ls_fcat-emphasize = 'C410'. " highlight column

Thanks for your answer. I have no explanation for why populating KEY with isn't coloring the colimns.
