i5Grid Layout
You use this function to configure the column layout of your SAP Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence (SAP MII) grids.
The grid layout properties are as follows:
Property Name | Parameter Name | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| N/A | N/A | If selected, switches from static to dynamic mode. In this mode, the system renders all columns in the query. The user can define additional columns, and specify a user-specific column name query in Note that the |
| N/A | N/A | Allows to identify which query is used to get the data |
| N/A | N/A | When the query is loaded, provides alternative column names |
| N/A | Integer | Identifies the column |
| DisplayColumns | String list | Descriptive name for the column |
| ColumnHeadings | String list | The label for the column. The text entered is displayed as column heading in the grid. Each line separated by a line feed is a heading for each column. |
| ColumnWidths | Integer list | If automatic scaling is not enabled, the width value specifies fixed widths for each column. For example, ColumnWidths=10,24,6,0,5. To hide a column regardless of the auto-scaling setting, set the width to zero. |
| ColumnFormats | String list | Specifies the format for numeric data for each column. You can define date format, currency and percentage values and values with different decimal precision. You must provide a generic format for non-numeric columns. |
| ColumnAlignments | String list | Specifies horizontal text alignment for each column. |
| ShowColumnAsBoolean | String list | Specifies if the column should be displayed as a checkbox in the grid. For more information about Boolean values, see Boolean Types. |
| AllowColumnResize | Boolean | If you select this checkbox, you can resize the columns at runtime. Changes to column widths are not persistent; therefore, when the grid is updated, the widths default to the original values. |
| AlwaysCenterColumnHeadings | Boolean | If you select this checkbox, the column header text is centered. If the checkbox is not selected, the alignment of the column header text is based on the alignment of the column data types or the Alignment property. |
| FreezeColumn | Integer | Allows you to freeze columns horizontally so that the columns are visible when scrolling. For example, if you have specified 2, the first 2 columns will be locked. If you have specified row heading in |
| Link | String | Allows you to edit the link of any URL. You can browse for a link from the MII content using You can display the reference either in home page, or on top, or in new window by choosing one of the option in |
In the Layout
screen of your grid in the SAP MII Workbench
, enter your query template and click Load
. The column names for the query appear in the list. You can do the following by using the properties in the table above:
Add columns
Delete columns
Configure column properties
Switch modes between static and dynamic. You can use dynamic mode to render the columns dynamically according to the data structure so that the same i5Grid could be used for data source that returns different columns at each time.
You can change the parameter values through Web Page Scripting for i5Charts.
