[SOLVED]Content Window Size WF8105
We created user mulitple user reports with parameters. The users select the reports from a tree on the left of the BIP (8080). When they select the desired report, the screen appears on the right with the parameters and run button. This screen is very small. How can I default it to a specific size? In looking through the WebFOCUS Release 8.1 Version 05M > App Studio > WebFOCUS App Studio Reference Guide > Creating Reports in WebFOCUS App Studio I did not see how to do this for 8105.

Thank you,
Geri Gellman

Hi Geri,

Assuming that you are using the Business Intelligence Portal (BIP)

If that is the case , then you need to edit the portal design.

This can be done from http(s)://yourserver(Razzerort)/ibi_apps

After login, you should see portals on the left side.

Waz,

yes I see the portals there which is where the users see the report. From here, I need to know what to change.

Thank you,

Just right-click / edit the portal, and start adjusting.

It would take too long to explain here.

I would suggest checking the documentation on BIP and get in and have a look.

Actually, I called them portals but it is actually content. That was my error. I know how to change the size in portals. I found documentation on that.

Thank you,

Create your screen shot and save it on a public website such as tinypic. com

Then insert the image url (third icon from right) to your post.

Ideally, when a user selects a report, it should open in a full window on the right.

Hello Geri,
We already spoke about this in the case you opened about this, but I thought I would post so that everyone can have the solution.

The issue was specifically on how to control the size of an HTML Document when opened via the main BI Portal/Client.

You can set the size of the popup for an HTML page by following these directions:

1. Open the page in App Studio

2. Click the 'Embedded JavaScript/CSS' tab on the bottom

3. Open the Settings panel and ensure under 'Editing Selection' you have selected 'Internal Java Script'

4. Directly under the line

function window_onload() {


Type the line

   window.resizeTo(1000, 1000);


Where the numbers are the desired width and height, respectively.

Note: depending on your Output Viewer settings, you may not see this change reflected when you hit the Run button in App Studio. However, if you run it from the Client you will see the window size correctly.

Emily,

Thanks! I was just logging in to add the same notes you added for others to see.
