17.13 Hide scrollbars

Prerequisites

• Products: Liquid UI WS, Liquid UI Server or Local DLL, Client Software
• Commands: del(), noscrollbar()

Purpose

The article demonstrates how to hide scrollbars on SAP screens. It can suppress or hide any scrollbars in SAP screens within a specified area in the SAP screen. This is very useful when a user has to delete many fields or other elements, eliminating the need for a scrollbar, and focusing on the Change Customer: General Data screen. Here, we'll perform the following actions:

1. Delete the unnecessary screen elements
2. Hide the scrollbar on the SAP screen

The scrollbar at the right-hand edge of the window is the lone exception to the command - it is not disabled when using the noscrollbar command.

User Interface

//Create the SAPMF02D.E7000.sjs file inside your scripts folder for customizing the Customer Change: Initial screen
//Now, add the Liquid UI script to the above file and save it.

1. Log in to SAP, navigate to the XD02 transaction screen, enter values, and click continue, as shown in the image below.
   
    
   

    
2. You will be navigated to the Change Customer: General Data screen. Delete the Communication group box under the Address tab.
   
    

   //Deletes the Communication group box from the SAP screen.
   del("G[Communication]");
   

    
   

    
3. Now, hide the scrollbar of the Change Customer: General Data screen using noscrollbar(). Then, you will see the scrollbar on the address tab is hidden, as shown in the image below.
   
    

   //Hides the existing scrollbar.
   noscrollbar();
