I have defined a SELECTION-SCREEN and it should show a small infotextbubble, with self defined text over the input field, at mouse over event.

I have defined the following screen:

PARAMETERs: p_dfrom TYPE timestamp, "==> need the info bubble at mouse over event
            p_dto   TYPE timestamp. "==> need the info bubble at mouse over event

SELECT-OPTIONS:
              p_obj   FOR balhdr-object,
              p_subobj FOR balhdr-subobject,
              p_extid FOR balhdr-extnumber, "==> need the info bubble at mouse over event
              p_user FOR balhdr-aluser.

Does anyone have a minimal example for me?

A Selection Screen is part of Dynpro technology. You may define a tooltip on each field by using the Field Property TooltipText: in the screen definition, go to the Attributes of the concerned field, and press the button Properties). You may assign either a Text Symbol, or a global variable.

Unfortunately, a Selection Screen is also a screen re-generated each time you activate your program and so everything you have changed in the selection screen is overwritten.

Consequently, it's highly recommended to never change manually a selection screen. I think that SAP never defines tooltips for selection screens. Too dangerous to lose manual changes at each activation.

Dynpro also became an obsolete technology because of SAPUI5/HTML/CSS/etc. So there should be no effort put in trying to do this kind of things.

  • @Jagger thx for your input! I was thinking of an other method, that would be adding a clickable info icon right next to the input filed (in the same line for each field) that opens a pop-up window with the information i would like to share with the user. Could you please send me a minimal example of this method? Much appreciated! – Erzsébet Gombkötő Nov 13 '20 at 07:28
