Hi,

Anyone know if its possible to reorder the Filter/Dropdown list so that the 'Search...' option is at the top of the dropdown list rather than at the bottom.

Thanks.

    For that you'd have to first create a custom style/skin package, then identify the file which controls the prompts (most likely in that case one of the .JS files), adapt that and then deploy your custom style/skin since otherwise any change you do is overwritten by the next version upgrade or bundle patch.

    Thanks Christian.

    Yeah, my problem is finding the correct .js file.

    Any tips on how to find it?

    Adrian,

    Normally I simply use Firebug and trace it down.

    Adrian,

    Did you progress on this issue? Is the question still open?

    Yes I did.  I was able to change the CSS styling to make the Search... more noticeable.

    Thanks

    Right but did you do it in a custom style/skin which you deployed to your server?

    Yes I used a custom style and added the css change to a custom.css file and placed in the virtual Analytics res location.

    The following I added to the instanceconfig.xml.
    following to the $DOMAIN_HOME /config/fmwconfig/biconfig/OBIPS/instanceconfig.xml

       <URL>      <CustomerResourcePhysicalPath>$DOMAIN_HOME/bidata/components/OBIPS/custom/res

             </CustomerResourcePhysicalPath>

        
    <CustomerResourceVirtualPath>/analyticsRes/res

          </CustomerResourceVirtualPath>

       </URL>

    </ServerInstance>

    The ....custom/res contains a extracted bicustom.ear which once all changes are completed I can tar/zip up as a ear file and deploy to whatever environment.

    Extract and deploy the BICustom.ear contents to the server as a shared folder
