A sneak peak at the new Web Dynpro features
We all know that Thomas Jung has been working on some very cool stuff lately.
Nigel James blogged about it not so long ago, and now that TechEd and the awsome SDN Mentor Hands-On Workshop (with Rich Heilman, Dan McWeeney, Thomas Jung and Ed Herrman) is coming nearer, we finally got a sneak peak at the coolness!
- Among the new features are:
- Full control drag and drop
- Sort inside the value help
- Arange columns within the value help
- Customize the screen while it runs (user customization)
- Formatted text editor, in this example for header texts (bold, italic, font-size, list for instance)
- Row-repeated output for the output of multiple addresses
- Slider to rate, the colour changes while sliding (in this example, to rate the customer)
- Pop-ins (in this example on item level of the sales order) This allows you to expand an area without having to navigate to another screen
- A new UI element: ICFExecute. To launch arbitrary applications on the desktop.
- Flash Islands
I cannot wait to get my hands on this, and I hope the Las Vegas sessions will be made available on SDN.
For those of us, who have worked with the SAP-Adobe integration for a while, these Flex components, which look like native UI elements, will take our work to a new level.
By the way, SAP built the AJAX framwork from scratch..
