Custom Area For external Link

Former Member
0 Kudos

I have a requirement where I need to setup a Custom Area.

When I click on the Area this should open an extenal Link / website

I am able to achieve this through

Created a URL iview with the external URL

Created page for the Iview

Defined resource as with a window name and URL and the PCD Link of the page above

Defined the service as "Direct Url in a Separate Window" referring to the above resource

When the Area was defined the above resource was specified.

Defined Iviw / Page for the Custom Area

After all these settings, I am able to lauch the external link when I click on the Area Name.

However, my problem is that the external window opens up in a small window (within the Internet Explorer).

I have set the Iview / Page length and Width more than 1000 Pixels. If I launch the same page from left detailed Navigation, external website lauches and display fully.

is there any setting which I can change to display external Link in full window when launching from Area Page.

Try establishing the following property (iview & page):

com.sap.portal.iview.HeightType = FULL_PAGE

Look for the page and set the Window Features property with "fullscreen=yes" value (without quotes).

Ensure the Launch in New Window property is set to '1' (open in external window)

All Properties set. Stil the same result.

I think the problem is with Iview rather than Page. All settings done to make it maximum or full page.
