SAC Application Input "Textbox" filter - sap-analytics-cloud

I am currently getting introduced to SAC and i am looking to filter a table and its columns via a "input field".
I have seen guides on drop down boxes and sliders but not text input by the user.
I imagine the code is very similar?
thank you in advance for your time.

Solved. The following code will also include vague strings like "Smi" for Smith, Smithy or Smithers in example.
Make sure you paste this into your InputField on your analytic application.
var Input= this.getValue();
var i=0;
var res=Table_1.getDataSource().getMembers("Dimension_Name_");
var filter_data = [""];
var a = 0;
for (i=0;i<res.length; i++)
{
if (res[i].description.startsWith(Input))
{
filter_data[a] = res[i].description;
a++;
}
}
Table_1.getDataSource().setDimensionFilter("Dimension_Name_",filter_data);
Hope this helps others that may run into this

For loop over a Google Sheets Range fails to change file owner

I need to transfer ownership of thousands of files I own to someone else with editing access, but I've learned that Google Drive requires you to do this one file at a time. With intermediate but growing JS experience I decided to write a script to change the owner from a list of file IDs in a spreadsheet, however I've run into trouble and I have no idea why. The debugger just runs through the script and everything looks sound for me. I'd greatly appreciate any help.
function changeOwner() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl('https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/********/').getSheetByName('Sheet1');
var range = ss.getRange(1,1,2211);
for (i = 0; i < range.length; i++){
var file = range[i][0].getValue();
var fileid = DriveApp.getFileById(file);
fileid.setOwner('******#gmail.com');
}
}
Tested below code working fine with IDs,
function myFunction() {
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById('ID');
var range = spreadsheet.getDataRange().getValues();
for (i = 0; i < range.length; i++){
var file = range[i][0].toString();
var fileid = DriveApp.getFileById(file);
fileid.setOwner('***#gmail.com');
}
}
Your issue is that the Range class had no length property. Instead, perform a getValues() call on the range to efficiently create a JavaScript array, and iterate on it:
function changeOwner() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl('https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/********/').getSheetByName('Sheet1');
var values = ss.getRange(1, 1, 2211).getValues();
for (i = 0; i < values.length; ++i){
var fileid = value[i][0];
var file = DriveApp.getFileById(fileid);
file.setOwner('******#gmail.com');
}
}
There are other improvements you can make, such as:
dynamic range read (rather than the fixed assumption of 2211 rows of data)
writing to a second array to keep track of which files you have yet to process
checks for if the file exists
checks for if the file is actually owned by you
checks for execution time remaining, to allow serializing any updates/tracking you do that prevents the next execution from repeating what you just did
and so on. I'll let you research those topics, and the methods available in Apps Script documentation for the DriveApp, SpreadsheetApp, Sheet, and Range classes. Note that you also have all features of Javascript 1.6 available, so many of the things you find on a Javascript Developer Reference (like MDN) are also available to you.

script to sort sheet by 2 colums

Please help make the script. As written below, I wrote a script that worked for some time. Now it does not work and I need help writing a new one.
The challenge is this: when you make changes in column F, K and O - occurs first check the availability of the text in the column to the - then if there is a text should start sorting first by F column - then sorting by a column O
There is a scheme of action sequences by the link:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5qSx6LqB8U-d01URS1BcEVtNGs/view?usp=sharing
I will be happy if someone can help me.
In any case, thanks for your time and attention :) Have a nice day :)
29/03/17 I need help "Service error: spreadsheets"
A very recently worked script:
function onEdit() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var r = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveRange();
var cols = r.getColumn();
var rows = r.getRow();
var who = ss.getRange(rows,11).getValue();
if (who !== "") {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheets()[0]
sheet.sort(6);
sheet.sort(15);}
}
Today received an error:
Service error: spreadsheets
The script stopped working at all, help, please.
I'm not following how this completes your action sequence flow chart, but I believe this should get it running as before. I've seen other posts where people get this same Service Error message form previously working scripts, and I believe Google is trying to change how certain tasks are done to help their server loads.
function onEdit() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
var r = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveRange();
var cols = r.getColumn();
var rows = r.getRow();
var who = ss.getActiveSheet().getRange(rows,11).getValue();
if (who !== "") {
var sheet = ss.getSheets()[0];
sheet.sort(6);
sheet.sort(15);}
}
I removed the duplicate definition of var ss and tweaked var ss, var who and var sheet to work without it.

Break line in long label text

Is there any trick to break a label text? Because '\n' '\r' '\n\r' don't work.
Many Thanks
if you use those 2 parameters you do what you want don't you ?
app.createLabel(text).setWidth(width).setWordWrap(true)
here is an example (among other widgets ;-):
function showurl() {
var app = UiApp.createApplication();
app.setTitle("Anchor in a popup ;-)");
var panel = app.createFlowPanel()
var image = app.createImage('https://sites.google.com/site/appsscriptexperiments/home/photo.jpg').setPixelSize(50, 50)
var link = app.createAnchor('This is your link', 'https://sites.google.com/site/appsscriptexperiments/home');
var lab = app.createLabel("wrap it because it's too narrow").setWidth(90).setWordWrap(true);
var quit = app.createButton('quit');
panel.add(image).add(link).add(lab).add(quit);
app.add(panel);
var doc = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
doc.show(app);
}
EDIT : I found an old post(on the Google group forum, thanks again Henrique ;-) about breaking lines in toast messages and here is the code I used for that case... the principle should work for Labels too but I didn't try.
To use it, just use \n (where you want to break the line) in a variable containing your text and pass it through this function. (there are some comment in the script to explain)
function break_(msg){
var temp = escape(msg);// shows codes of all chars
msg = unescape(temp.replace(/%20/g,"%A0")); // replace spaces by non break spaces
temp = msg.replace("\n"," "); // and replace the 'newline' by a normal space
return temp; // send back the result
}
Would something like this work?
//takes a line of text and returns a flex table broken by \n
function breakLabel(text) {
var app = UiApp.getActiveApplication();
var flexTable = app.createFlexTable();
text = text.split('\n'); // split into an array
for (var i=0; i<text.length; i++){
flexTable.setWidget(i, 0, app.createLabel(text[i].toString()));
}
return flexTable;
}
Adding them to a vertical panel helps as well (not the way you want, but still..):
var vPanel = app.createVerticalPanel().setSize(100,100);
var label = app.createLabel('predominantly blabla blala blabla');
app.add(vPanel.add(label));
See reference
For anyone just now stumbling upon this, the best solution seems to be creating an HTML output for anything that needs line breaks.
Documentation
var htmlApp = HtmlService
.createHtmlOutput('<p>A change of speed, a change of style...</p>')
.setSandboxMode(HtmlService.SandboxMode.IFRAME)
.setTitle('My HtmlService Application')
.setWidth(250)
.setHeight(300);
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().show(htmlApp);
// The script resumes execution immediately after showing the dialog.

Greasemonkey script to find rows with certain conditions

I tried some different ways do find rows in a table where a columns contain a particular link.
My goal: replace an icon when a link to xyz is in this same row as the image.
This is my snippet so far:
var rows = document.getElementsByTagName("tr");
for(var i = rows.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
var links = rows[i].getElementsByTagName("a");
for(var k = links.length - k; k >= 0; k--) {
if (links[k].href =="http://www.XXXX.net/forum/index.php?showforum=121"){
var images = rows[i].getElementsByTagName("img");
for (var j=0;j<images.length;j++) {
images[j].src = "http://www.XXXX.net/forum/folder_post_icons/icon7.gif";
}
}
}
}
I'm pretty sure this is not really the best concept. But as you might see I try to search links in all rows and once the link to forum "121" is found, I try to replace all images in this particular row.
What I get is every image at the site getting replaced.
Since it's simple enough, here's a complete script that does that.
It uses jQuery and here's a handy jQuery reference. See, especially, the Selectors section (which are almost the same as CSS Selectors).
Re: "What I get is every image at the site getting replaced." ...
This maybe because the search criteria is too broad. If it's a poorly designed (uses table layouts) page, every image may be in a table row with a target link!
When posting Greasemonkey questions, link to the target page, or at the very minimum, post enough of the page's HTML that we can adjust the GM script to match.
Anyway, this will work, possibly pending more information about the target page:
// ==UserScript==
// #name _Replace image on custom-targeted row
// #include http://www.XXXX.net/forum/*
// #require http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js
// ==/UserScript==
//--- This may need tuning based on information not provided!
var targetLinks = $("tr a[href*='showforum=121']");
//--- Loop through the links and rewrite images that are in the same row.
targetLinks.each ( function () {
//--- This next assumes that the link is a direct child of tr > td.
var thisRow = $(this).parent ().parent ();
//--- This may need tuning based on information not provided!
var images = thisRow.find ("td img");
//--- Replace all target images in the current row.
images.each ( function () {
$(this).attr (
'src',
'http://www.XXXX.net/forum/folder_post_icons/icon7.gif'
);
} );
} );

In Flex 4 how do I get a list of components in my application

I have an application that presents a form that accepts many data items. I would like to "dim out" those non required fields that have not been completed (by setting the alpha to ".5"). I was thinking of creating an array and manually entering all the TextInputs and CheckBoxes etc but then I thought there might/should be a way of getting a list of all components and controls in my application. I have done some research but have not found the answer yet - I will continue to look. While looking on my own I thought I would ask the question here. Thanks for any guidance.
I recommend you look into using the Form and FormElement containers from the mx package. These will work in flex4. This allows you to setup validation and required fields very easily. Here is the documentation.
After reading you comment, it sounds easy. You can loop through Form elements. It is different for MX Form and Spark Form.
var listOfElements:Array = [];
var formItem:FormItem;
for (var i:int = 0; i < myForm.numElements; i++) //myForm.numChildren for MX
{
formItem = myForm.getElementAt(i) as FormItem; //myForm.getItemAt(i) for MX
if(formItem)
{
trace("setting alpha for",formItem.name);
formItem.alpha = 0.5;
listOfElements.push(formItem);
}
}
