Cognos: Removing Border from Radio Button

Hi Guys,

In this post I will explain how you can remove border from a radio button prompt.

Here are the steps:

• Add an HTML Item just before the radio button prompt with below code

<STYLE>

#radio Div.clsCheckBoxList{

border-style:none;

}

</STYLE>

<div id="radio" >

• Add the second HTML Item next to the radio button prompt with below code.

</div>

          Now you should be able to see the radio button prompt without any border.

    

Cognos: Horizontal Radio Button

Hi Guys,

You might have faced the challenged aligning radio button prompt horizontally as Cognos do not support this behaviour. I found the way to achieve this using Java Script code. Just follow below steps and you should be able to get the radio button aligned horizontally.

•           Add an HTML Item just before the radio button prompt with below code

  

<STYLE>

#radio Div.clsCheckBoxRow{

display:inline;

whiteSpace:noWrap;

}

</STYLE>

<div id="radio" >

•        Add the second HTML Item next to the radio button prompt with below code

</div>

•        Run the report and you should be able to see the radio button aligned horizontally.

     

COGNOS: ADDING TOOLTIP IN A LIST REPORT

Sometimes we may need to add tool-tip for a Column in a List report. Though it is not possible to achieve this using Cognos list properties, we can achieve this using a simple JS script.


Just place two html items before and after the column header

HTML item 1:

<span title='Tool Tip '>

HTML item 2:

</span>
