Files effecting the font size in ITS

[Former Member]

Hi Friends

Our existing ESS setup is on workplace 2.11 & with ITS 4.6D, we're migrating our ESS application to EP 6.0 & standalone ITS 6.20. We copied our ESS transactions templates(like PZ02/PZ09 etc) from the existing 4.6 D ITS to the new 6.20 ITS, all our ESS transactions are working fine with portal except for the issue that the font size is much bigger then what the users are used to currently.

We understand from customer that the earlier team who configured ITS 4.6D modified some ITS files to make the fonts small so we also copied the following 4 files from the 4.6D ITS to the new 6.20 ITS & restarted the ITS & web server. Despite this the size of our fonts haven't reduced while displaying the ESS transactions within Portal.

<link REL="stylesheet" HREF="/sap/its/mimes/webgui/wa/webgui/style/generator.css" TYPE="text/css">

<link REL="stylesheet" HREF="/sap/its/mimes/webgui/wa/webgui/style/msiexplorer/d_generator.css" TYPE="text/css">

<link REL="stylesheet" HREF="/sap/its/mimes/webgui/wa/scrindp/style/screenindependent.css" TYPE="text/css">

<link REL="stylesheet" HREF="/sap/its/mimes/webgui/wa/scrindp/style/msiexplorer/screenindependent.css" TYPE="text/css">

1. Can somebody advice if the font size is controlled by some other files as well with-in the ITS, if yes what's the names of these files?.

2. Do we need to do something at the portal server instead of ITS to solve this issue?. Can the font size be controlled from the portal instead of ITS?

Thanks & Rgds,

Hi Michael

Thanks for the reply, we'll proceed with your suggestion & try to figure out which files are used(if at all they are used!!!!) by keying-in a very high value of fonts for them one-by-one, meanwhile would you please kindly explain "How the implementation sequence can effect the end result", since these files are placed in different directories in the ITS windows server. I was thinking that these files might be independent of each other.

Thanks & Rgds,

Hi Abhishek,

sorry, I should have given you a bit more on the sequence of the CSS.

What I was trying to say is that since these sheets are cascading (CSS), ie they potentially inherit styling rules from each other. Therefore, the sequence how you implement them in your code is crucial. Getting the sequence wrong might result in some styling not having the desired effect, since the rules are either not being picked up by the browser or overwrite each other.

I'd check the sequence how these style sheets are accessed in the original code and compare it to your work.

Hope this clarifies it.

Hi Abhishek,

Is your problem solved? If so, please grant reward points to helpful SDN user postings and mark this topic as answered.

Hi Abhishek,

Have you tried defining your own test CSS rule in any of those CSS files in order to see if any of them are definetly being picked up? This process of elimination should tell you where the large fonts come from.

Also, don't forget that the sequence of implementation of these sheets can play a significant role, too.

Greetings,

Michael
