Design Studio 1.6: Customization of prompt dialog

[Former Member]

Hi folks,

apart from a best practice not to use prompts in Design Studio I am wondering if those prompts can be somehow customized or used in a more user-friendly way.

We have a BEX query with a variable which fills a mandatory prompt (date, intervall). This timeframe should be modifiable by the user of the dashboard at prompt level.

To directly type in the timeframe is ok, but to navigate through the arrows and check-boxes to input a timeframe intervall is rather difficult and requires many steps.

Is there a way to customize this option away?

I mean those questions/ discussions have been asked before:

Any updates or news on this?

Thank you so much,

Marcus

Marcus - I understand; I don't have any immediate updates. I was surprised not to see this as an idea on Idea Place at https://ideas.sap.com/SBODesignStudio - but perhaps I am not searching correctly.

Tammy, looks like Lumira 2.0 will care more about this feature!

I am excited to test this.

Hi Marcus,

Apart from influencing the appearance/skin of the prompt dialogue via CSS, there is no way to otherwise customise the UI. However, based on the Lumira 2.0 Roadmap and related communications, you can expect an improved variable prompt dialogue, especially with date variables, where the arrow navigation you have mentioned is being replaced with a date picker.

Regards,

Mustafa.
