Context Tab Missing in SFP - Interface Types - Image URLs

[Former Member]

We created a form from the WebDynpro ABAP development environment as described by Thomas Jung [here|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/elearn?rid=/library/uuid/806cf26c-22e7-2c10-8ca3-a671648fd2ea]. When you do this you end up with a form which does not have the same look as a form created in SFP. Forms created in SFP have 3 tabs "Properties", "Context" and "Layout". Our form is now missing the tab "Context".

The problem is we now have no way of creating Graphic objects etc because we have no way of editing the form context. How can we create Graphic objects for our form which apparently has a "Generated" XML Schema-Based Interface? There seems to be no way to map the URL of an Image Field to a simple text field of a context containing that URL

If we switch back to "ABAP Dictionary-Based Interfaces" we lose the ability to automatically update the form context from the WDA context.

Hello,

the context tab will not exist in case of XML form interface.

What you can do:

You can use script to set the image url. You pass the url as string to the form, and you set this value to the HREF attribute of the imagefield.
