Hi,

I need to place a filled circle at the starting of the paragraph in the smartforms. In the layout i was inserted the sap symbol <680> but it was not displaying in the output. Could you please tell me the reason and solve the issue.

Thanks in advance.

regards

Jaya

Hi,

you cannot see the sap system symbols in the print preview

just give a print and see it in the hard copy

or other option is down load the form as .pdf format

and then you can see those symbols

eg code for pdf format

  • This function module call is used to retrieve the name of the Function

  • module generated when the SMARTFORM is activated

CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'

EXPORTING
