DropDownByIndex - different coloring for contained elements

[Former Member]

Hi community,

I'd like to have a DropDownByIndex display some of the contained items with a different background and a tooltip.

I'm pretty sure this is not possible with Web Dynpro as a fine-grained control of the visual representation of the generated ui elements seems to be impossible but maybe there is special or work-around I have not stumbled over yet.

It is - however - an easy task with JSP, but I'm sick and tired of AbstractPortalComponents... ;-(

Thanks for your help!

regards,

Christian

No, that's not possible with Web Dynpro. If you need such fine-grained control over visual properties, Web Dynpro is probably not the right tool for you.

Hi Christian,

To display tooltip for DropDownByIndex, there is property

tooltip.

For different background, just set the layout property of Container (which contains the DropDownByIndex- RootUIElementContainer) to GridLayout.

In the DropDownByIndex properties change cellBackGroundDesign to your choice.

regards,

Siva

Sorry:I have overlooked the words contained items with and misunderstood your requirement
