Background documentation BreadCrumb  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

A BreadCrumb displays the current page in the context of a navigation path. You can, for example, display a history of the pages last visited or the structure of the information provided. A BreadCrumb consists of individual links, or in its entirety represents one link.

You can insert two different types of BreadCrumb steps into one BreadCrumb.

      BreadCrumbStep

      MultipleBreadCrumbStep

BreadCrumbSteps are bound to individual context attributes. In this way, the number of displayed steps is defined during runtime. In comparison, a MultipleBreadcrumbStep is bound to a context node. This allows the number of displayed steps to be dynamically adjusted at runtime.

Example of the Visual Display

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text

 

Note

To enable the development of accessible applications, the tooltip property is checked during the syntax check.

Note that the BreadCrumb.tooltip is only displayed on the symbols between the BreadCrumbSteps  (for example on the standard symbol >). Whereas on the single BreadCrumbSteps the respective BreadCrumbStep.tooltip is displayed.
