      enabled

Specifies whether or not an event can be triggered by a user interaction. If the value is TRUE, the view elements positioned above it are used at runtime to determine the value. This means that if the surrounding container is not enabled, all the containers within this are also not enabled.

Note

In Web Dynpro ABAP “enabled” is always passed down from parent to child. If a UI element lies nested in another UI element that has enabled=FALSE, then this UI element has also enabled=false.

Values

Description

TRUE

View elements positioned above this element are used at runtime to determine the value.

For an InteractiveForm UI element, enabled is the definition of whether an interactive form or a (not interactive) print form is involved. If the value is TRUE, the form is interactive and ready for input. Use the value FALSE for print-only forms.

Note that the enabled property is not active with an InteractiveForm UIelement.

This property can be personalized by an administrator. This property can be assigned the value, false, in the personalization function.

      tooltip

Quick info text that appears when the user passes the mouse pointer over the UI element. If screen readers are supported, additional text is added automatically to the quick info to support accessibility.

If a text already exists for the tooltip, the text for the hotkey is appended to the end.
