Hi Florian,
we first want to finish the Dictionary editors and then move over to new challenges.
Enhancement support could be one of the directions. Let's see.

Hello, Wolfgang.
In SAP GUI in transport request a can fill attribute PROJECT((External) project IDs that project systems give to their projects.). How I can't do it in Eclipse.
Hi all,
I have the latest version of ADT installed on Eclipse oxygen, with all of the latest updates.
Unfortunately we have to upgrade our solution manager, and the UI for solution manager requires SAPGUI 750 - this is not optional - as without it you see plugin errors for basic Solution manager features.
We have noticed that the very latest version of ADT only supports up to SAPGUI 740 - according to the HANA on demand website.
So now with Solution manager 710 out of support by SAP, all customers of SAP will be forced to upgrade to the 750 SAPGUI - and so it would be good if we could use Eclipse ADT too!
If anyone has any solutions to this - perhaps ADT is compatible with SAPGUI 750 by some magic means - any help would be greatly appreciated. Have also raised a support ticket for this catch 22 situation.

The error that we get in ADT whenever we try to call the SAPGUI backend components from Eclipse is:
Please contact your system administrator. A new version of SAP GUI for Windows needs to be installed.
Actual Version SAP GUI for Windows: 750 LSAPI protocol version 23
Required Version SAP GUI for Windows: 720 patch level 9
Hi Julian,
thank you for reporting your question. Our support is already working on it.
Please let us know if you need further assistance.
Kind regards,
Wolfgang
