Binding UI Element Properties to Dictionary Types

UI elements properties can be bound to Dictionary Simple Types or Core Data Types (in Web Dynpro implemented as Dictionary Types). For example the text property of FormattedTextView has to be bound to a Dictionary Simple Type FormattedText .

1. Create a context attribute, select Simple Type and set the type property to the relevant Dictionary Type.

2. In the View Designer, switch to the Layout view; select the desired UI element and subsequently the desired property in the P roperties view.

3. Select Bind on the right hand side of the line and select the desired attribute in the Context viewer.
