Liquid UI WS allows you to define the position of a screen element anywhere on the SAP screen. You can either specify a fixed positioning using row and column values or relative positioning with respect to other screen elements. Also, you can replace an existing screen element with a new screen element.
Screen Elements can be used to change the UI of the SAP screens. Screen elements such as box, checkbox, comment, dropdownlist, image, inputfield, pushbutton, radiobutton, table, text, textbox are also be called as control elements or fields.
You can specify the position of a screen element in different ways as shown below:
Available Options:
You can use the any of the following options for positioning the screen elements:
screenelement([row,col],"labelname",{“options”:”values”}); |
|
screenelement(“[row,col]”,"labelname",{“options”:”values”}); |
|
screenelement({"field":"F[screenelement name]","offset":[row,col]},"label name");
|
|
screenelement("F[screenelement name]+[row,col]","label name",{“options”:”values”}}); |
|
screenelement([TOOLBAR],"label name",{"options":"values"}); |
|
screenelement("F[screenelement name]","label name",{"options":"values"});

Syntax
Option 1: Positioning the screen element using row and column values
screenelement([row,col],"labelname",{“options”:”values”});
//Groupbox positioned with four coordinate values where top left corner at (2,9) and its bottom right corner at (13,56) box([2,9],[13,56],"Sales & Distribution");
//Checkbox positioned at row 10 and column 49 on the screen
checkbox([19,49],"Bulk Material",{"default":"X"});

//Textbox positioned at row 1 and column 48 with textbox width=87-48:39 and height=4-1:3 textbox([1,48],[4,87],{"name":"z_va01_term_of_delivery_text"});
Option 2: Positioning the screen element using a string of row and column values
screenelement(“[row,col]”,"labelname",{“options”:”values”});
//Groupbox positioned with four coordinate values where top left corner at (2,9) and its bottom right corner at (13,56) box("[2,9]","[13,56]","Sales & Distribution");

Note: You can use double quotes to row and column coordinates to define the position of a screen element.
Option 3: Positioning the screen element with respect to other screen element on the screen using offset coordinate values
screenelement({"field":"F[screenelement name]","offset":[row,col]},"label name");
(or)
screenelement({"field":"F[screenelement name]","offset":"[row,col]"},"label name");
//Pushbutton positioned with respect to Sale Office field using offset coordinates at row 3 and column 3

//Inputfield positioned with respect to Processing groupbox field using offset coordinates at row 1 and column 1
inputfield({'field':'G[Processing]','offset':[1,1]},"Date paperwork rec'd",{"name":"z_strdt","size":10,"date":true});
Option 4: Positioning the screen element with respect to other screen elements on the screen
screenelement("F[screenelement name]+[row,col]","label name",{“options”:”values”}});(or) screenelement("F[screenelement name]-[row,col]","label name",{“options”:”values”}});
