Representation of Icons on Dynpros in Release 3.0
From Release 3.0, icons can be represented on
dynpros. Either Screen Painter
is used to define the icons or the function module ICON_CREATE for setting
icons dynamically from an ABAP program. <ICON> must be included in the program so that the icons can be addressed using their symbolic names. It is important that the
dynpro field that contains
an icon at runtime is at least as long as the identically named ABAP field. Apart from the icon name, the field should also be able to accommodate a short information text.
