Coloring particular rows of ALV Grid

Former Member
0 Kudos

How can one color particular rows of an ALV grid display?

Consider :

loop at a_tab( some internal table).

Populate i_tab ( Internal Table for ALV) -


Row must be yellow in color

loop at x_tab ( some other table).

populate i_tab. --- Background color

end loop.

end loop.

how can we make sure that the data being populated in the 1st statement gets printed in yellow??

Hi,

Color codes are

constructed as follows:

<i>Cxyz

x:Colornumbers

y:1/0:inverseon/off

z:1/0:intensifiedon/off</i>

<i>Color numbers are:

x color intended for

1 gray-blue headers

2 light gray list bodies

3 yellow totals

4 blue-green key columns

5 green positive threshold value

6 red negative threshold value

7 orange Control levels</i>

The “key setting” made via the field “key” of the field catalog

overrides this setting. So if you want this color to be colored

different than the key color, you should set the “key” field to space

while generating the field catalog. However, then there may be some side

effects on column orders. You can set the column order as you want at the

frontend. But if this is not suitable for you, then unset all key

settings and do all coloring and ordering as you want. Be careful that the

function module generating the field catalog will always set the key

properties of key fields.

<b>Coloring an Entire Row</b>

Coloring a row is a bit (really a bit) more complicated. To enable row

coloring, you should add an additional field to your list data table.

It should be of character type and length at least 4. This field will

contain the color code for the row. Sample Declaration of our list data

table “gt_list”.

<b><i>DATA BEGIN OF gt_list OCCURS 0 .

INCLUDE STRUCTURE SFLIGHT .

DATA rowcolor(4) TYPE c .

DATA END OF gt_list .</i></b>

As you guess, you should fill the color code to this field. Its format

will be explained below But how will ALV Grid know that you have loaded

the color data for the row to this field. So, you make it know this by

passing the name of the field containing color codes to the field

“INFO_FNAME” of the layout structure.

<i><b>ps_layout-info_fname = <field_name_containing_color_codes>.

“e.g. ‘ROWCOLOR’</b></i>

You can fill that field anytime during execution. But, of course, due

to the flow logic of screens, it will be reflected to your list display

as soon as an ALV refresh occurs.

You can color an entire row as described in the next section. However,

this method is less time consuming.

Hope this helps.

Hi

See this

1. add one more field to ur final internal table say COLOR(4)

2. in layout wa_layout-style_fname = 'COLOR'. " if its grid

wa_layout-style_fieldname = 'COLOR'. "if its list

3. read table itab index 3.

itab-color = 'C410'.

modify itab index 3

4. see program SHOWCOLO for all color codes

1. Add a field of data type CHAR(3) to the internal output table.

2. Enter the color code in the appropriate field of the row to be colored in the internal

output table:

Code: 'Cxy'

C = Color (all codes begin with 'C')

x = color number ('1' - '9')

y = highlight ('0' = off, '1' = on)

3. Assign the internal output table color code field name to the IS_LAYOUT importing

structure IS_LAYOUT-INFO_FIELDNAME field and pass this structure in the ALV call

interface.

To enable row coloring, you should add an additional field to your list data table. It should be of character type and length at least 4. This field will contain the color code for the row. So, let’s modify declaration of our list data table “gt_list”.

you should fill the color code to this field. Its format will be the same as explained before at section C.6.3. But how will ALV Grid know that you have loaded the color data for the row to this field. So, you make it know this by passing the name of the field containing color codes to the field “INFO_FNAME” of the layout structure.

e.g.

ps_layout-info_fname = <field_name_containing_color_codes>. “e.g. ‘ROWCOLOR’

You can fill that field anytime during execution. But, of course, due to the flow logic of screens, it will be reflected to your list display as soon as an ALV refresh occurs.

You can color an entire row as described in the next section. However, this method is less time consuming.

Coloring Individual Cells

This is the last point about coloring procedures for the ALV Grid. The procedure is similar to coloring an entire row. However, since an individual cell can be addressed with two parameters we will need something more. What is meant by “more” is a table type structure to be included into the structure of the list data table. It seems strange, because including it will make our list data structure deep. But anyhow ALV Grid control handles this.

The structure that should be included must be of type “LVC_T_SCOL”. If you want to color the entire row, this inner table should contain only one row with field “fname” is set to space, some color value at field “col”, “0” or “1” at fields “int” (intensified) and “inv” (inverse).

If you want to color individual cells, then for each cell column, append a line to this inner table which also contains the column name at field “fname”. It is obvious that you can color an entire column by filling this inner table with a row for that column for each row in the list data table.

hi,

How can I set the cell color in ALV?

hi,,

try this...

data: wg_gs_layout TYPE slis_layout_alv.

LOOP AT t_final INTO wa_final.

IF wa_final-total < 0.

wa_final-rowcolor = 'C601'.

MODIFY t_final FROM wa_final TRANSPORTING rowcolor.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

wg_gs_layout-info_fieldname = 'ROWCOLOR'.

row color is one of the field name with char4 in your final itable

in this case it will display with diff color

when ever total field in final internal table < 0

u can change the if condition according to your requirements ok.
