Visible/blank/none element in UI Table column

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I have the following problem:

I have created a column in my table with a button

and under some condition I want this button

to be not visible (blank) in a row. I know how to deal

with ReadOnly (just created a boolean variable

in dictionary and create calculation methods for this alement and assign it to ReadOnly attribute)

but now I have no idea how and where can I set dynamicly

visible attribute I have create a variable in dictionary with 3 enumeration blank/none/visible but when I tried to assing it to my new-defined type the system

does not allow to assing it, I thouth that I should proceed like for ReadOnly but I was wrong

If somebody could helpe me? Thank you in advance

Bind the "visible" property of the button to a context attribute of local DDIC type "com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.Visibility".

At runtime, use the constants from class WDVisibility to assign values to this attribute.

Addition: From an ergonomic point of view, I would rather enable/disable the button (property "enabled") than switch its visibility.

Hello Thank you

1. I have created the Simple Type in Local Dictionary with a Base Type: com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.Visibility

2. Created a context value attribute assing a simple

type created in p.1

3. Went to the column attribute and when I try to bind

my new value attribute to the column visible property I have the message 'Select an attribute of type 'Visibility'

Where could be the problem?

Thank you

You don't need to create your own DDIC type, use the predefined one!

Hello Bogumila Wendt,

Create a value attribute of "Type" com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.Visibility under the view context and assign the same value attribute to the column visible property. This should work..
