SAPUI5 - Variant Management - Save as Tile

Oct 12, 2016 at 05:46 PM | 696 Views | Last edit Oct 12, 2016 at 05:46 PM 2 rev.

Hi,

We implemented Variant Management as part of our UI5 application. When we try to save the variant, we don't find the option 'Save as Tile'. Is there any configuration that needs to be done ? Our requirement is to save variants for Tiles as a new tile.

Thanks and Regards.

    Hi,

    I am looking for this option as well. What I figured out so far is that there was an option "showCreateAsTile" for Variant Management but now it is commented as "Deprecated since version 1.32.0" without any new alternative. Maybe the functionality was deleted but I could not find anything in the changelogs.

    Thanks and Regards.

      Thanks for the information Jan. I am not able to find any other information related to this. Your points are helpful. I will try to convince my customer to say, it is deprecated.

    Hi,
    something new I just found out. Within the Page Variant Management the option "showCreateTile" is available again. But in my first tests the tile was not created.

    Best regards.
