I want to create a dashboard group view and the look will be something like below.

Bannerframe – will have logo on left and the links Logoff, Tree, Recent, Favorites on right.

Left frame – Will have all the report links

Right frame – The report output should show there.

How to do this? I tried to create this but not able to. And also I am trying to find the main html page that has the frameset tag but not able to find it. Where can I find that?

Thanks

Kamesh,

To view the source of the main html page, do not right-click on one of the frames, instead, select View > Source from the I.E. toolbar.

Are you building the report links html file yourself, or is it being created by Viewbuilder?

If you are, the links should target the frame on the right.

Francis, Thanks for your thoughts.

1. I am not trying to view the source but I am trying to view the code. Like how we can see the banner.html .

2. I am building it through view builder.

Steps how I created
--------------------
1. Edit look --> Changed banner logo, color and composition.
2. Edit Content --> Added 1 page and 1 block. That block has two files as list.

Kamesh,

Sorry I haven't responded sooner. You may have figured it out by now, but here's some info.

The views generated by Dashboard ViewBuilder are located here (on my server):

D:\ibi\WebFOCUS53\worp\worp_custom


Group View folders are names xx_gbv where xx is a sequential alphabetical code for each group view, aa_gbv, ab_gbv, ac_gbv, etc.

Public views are named aa_mpv, ab_mpv, except for the first, default one, which is named public.

I created a view like the obe you require.

I created a page with two blocks. The first block has Block Type set to "List". I then added a few reports to the Content List.

The second block has Block Type set to "Output".

I saved the view and then accessed it from the list of views. When I click a report name in the list shown ion the left hand frame, the output of the report is displayed in the right frame.

Is this the behaviour you need?


Francis

Thanks Francis, That's the way I wanted. I tested and it looks good now.

I do check the folder you mentioned but didn't find the main html file (the one will have the frameset tag). I believe that is generated automatically by jsp when it authorizes the user.

Kamesh, it seems that the only way to view the main html file is to select View > Source from the I.E. toolbar.

There's usually nothing to change in an html page that contains frameset code. What would you like to change?

Regards,

I would like to change the frameset.

<FRAMESET BORDER="0" rows="65, *" >
to

< FRAMESET BORDER="0" rows="45, *" >

in order to give enough space for the content frame.

Simply use ViewBuilder to change the width of the blocks:

view > Page Layout > Reduce the percentage of the List Block.

I want to change the height of the banner not the blocks. Already I did that by changing the column percentage.

Right now the banner frame occupies little bit more space than normal.

Kamesh,

Edit file profile.prf in the folder of the view.

Change the value for bannerHeight.

On this topic, since the LAUNCH report is typically delivered within a frame, I would like to add a CSS reference within that frame's output.

The first rows of that frame currently look like:


< !--Olap java_script-->
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META name="HandheldFriendly" content="True">
<META name="PalmComputingPlatform" content="True">
<TITLE>WebFOCUS Report</TITLE>
<STYLE TYPE="text/css">
< !--
TABLE { border-collapse:collapse; }
TD { vertical-align:top; padding-left:6pt; padding-right:6pt; }
.x3 { font-family:VERDANA; font-size:11pt; color:#424649; border-style: NONE; }
.x2_0 { font-family:VERDANA; font-size:11pt; color:#424649; background-color:#FFFFFF; border-style: NONE; }
.x2_1 { font-family:VERDANA; font-size:11pt; color:#424649; background-color:#EBEBF0; border-style: NONE; }
.x1 { font-family:VERDANA; font-size:11pt; font-weight:bold; color:#FFFFFF; background-color:#666666; border-style: NONE; }
-->
</STYLE>
...


but I can not find any of this coding or templating referenced.


Any ideas?
