percentages will not work. You need to use px. If you do so, you can get the desired result which is two boxes next to eachother with different heights

In one of your posts you’ve said that the panel boxes can be of different sizes and that can only be done using instyle.
What is the recommended approach for displaying 2 panel boxes, layout=vertical, heightPanel1=40%, heightPanel2=80%? Can this be done in a panelDashboard?
Thanks,
Adrian

Hi Christian, Thanks for the compliments. I have the answers to your questions. The first answer can be found at the JDeveloper Forum. The answer to the second question: You can change the label dynamically. To achieve that you hve to bind the component to a bean. In that bean you can access all properties of the component. By invoking <Yourcomponent>.setText(<new label>) you can change the label. Good luck with that. If you need more help, feel free to get back to me. Luc

Hello!!
Good tutorial!
I have two questions:
1. How can I add a dragsource component form java code? I’m adding dinamically components in a jspx and I’d like to add d&d function. So I add a panelBox, inside a UIComponent (input box etx..) and now I need the DragSource…
2. Is it possible to modify dinamiucally a Label of a UIComponent, for example clicking on it?
Thank you very much
Cristian

Andry,

At your first problem: 3 seems to be a “magic number”. Untill now I don’t have a clue on why this doesn’t work.
I have to look into the second problem if you need this fixed.

Hi Luc,
I have download your application. Very nice and very helpful this example.
I have two problems:
1) When I choose “three columns” I don’t see the page with the dashboard
2) When I modify the order of the panel and I click on “hide”, the page does not hide the correct panel (so that the panel just reordered), but it hides the panel that was in the previous order. So, if I switch the position of the panelBox1 (position 1) with the position panelBox2 (position 2) and then I click on “hide” of the panelBox1 (now in the position 2), the dashboard hides the panelBox2

I am using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.0 and Vista. I read in the blog that the problem would be Vista, doesn’t it?

Hi Luc,

I’m currently implementing a dashboard, and found your tutorial very helpful. I moved onto a new version, based on the ADF hosted demo dashboard, but I’m having a problem with maximise. I posted on

http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=3715127

But haven’t had any answers. Perhaps you might have an idea?

Hi Larry,
a panelbox has the functionallity to be collapsed hence showing only the titlebar. So the answer to your question is yes.
You can dot that by setting the showDisclosure property of the panelbox to true (or not set it at all, because that will result in the default property ‘true’). In the upper left corner there will be an icon visible. When you click it the box will collapse (or expand if allready collapsed)
