Hi,

Are you displaying any error messages if the field is initial? If so, you cannot set focus on field as the focus will be shifted to message area. you can use report_attribute_error_message( ) method of message manger to highlight the input field(in red color, but no focus set).

If you want to set the focus without any error messages, use the below code

DATA: lr_elem TYPE REF TO if_wd_view_element.

      lr_view type ref to if_wd_view.

      lr_view ?= wd_this->wd_get_api( ).

   lr_elem = view->get_element( 'INP1' )." INP1 is the UI element ID of input field1

  lr_view->request_focus_on_view_elem( lr_elem ).

hope this helps,

Hi,

Use the below code:

DATA lo_message_manager TYPE REF TO if_wd_message_manager. 
* Get  Message manager
lo_api_controller ?= wd_this->wd_get_api( ).  
CALL METHOD lo_api_controller->get_message_manager  
    RECEIVING  
        message_manager = lo_message_manager.  


* Get the context element   
DATA lo_nd_node TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.  
DATA lo_el_elem TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.  
lo_nd_node = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_node ). " node is name of your Context node 
lo_el_elem = lo_nd_node->get_element(  ).


CALL METHOD lo_message_manager->report_attribute_error_message  
    EXPORTING  
        message_text   = 'Error Message'  
        element            = lo_el_elem  
        attribute_name = 'ATTR'.   " ATTR is the attribute name to which the input field is bound 

hope this helps,

Hi Sandesh,

In case if you are validating all the mandatory fields at the end,(at submit), its better to use cl_wd_dynamic_tool class for checking all the fields and get the error message.
