Wyn Enterprise: Dynamic Display of Components

You can control the Visibility of the scenarios while designing the dashboard and you can change their visibility on the viewer using the Click Action commands. So, you can display and hide some components dynamically.

Like, while creating a dashboard, you might want to include too many charts, like the summary data and the detailed data, and show the details data when clicking on a button or clicking on a component. So, you can control the Scenario Visibility on the designer and customize the scenarios based on the Click Action Commands.

Control the Scenario Visibility in the Designer

Add a dashboard scenario. We are taking a Column Chart in this example. Go to the Inspector tab and set the Visibility to True under Appearance.

The Chart scenario will be visible on Preview.

Note: From the Inspector tab, if the Visibility is set to False under Appearance, then the Chart Scenario will not be visible on Preview.

Customize the scenarios based on the Click Action Commands

You can change the visibility of the scenario in the viewer, like, showing the details data when clicking on a button or clicking on a component. For this you need to set the Click Action Commands. You can set the click action command by adding an Image Component and on the Inspector tab, set the Image Click Action as Command.

Click to add the command. Command Setting dialog box is displayed.

Following commands are displayed on the Command Setting dialog box.

Command	Description
Show	This will Show the hidden scenario on the Image click.
Hide	This will Hide the scenario on the Image click.
Toggle	When this option is selected, the Image will work as a Toggle button to Show and Hide the scenario.
Switch Page	This command is used to Switch from one page to another.
Switch Tab	This command is used to Switch from one tab to another in the tab container.

Each command listed above in the table has some properties as listed below:

Command	Property
Show	Scenario: This is the scenario for which the command is set to show. Entrance Animation: Show command supports the following Entrance animations None\Fade In\From Top\From Bottom\From Left\From Right. This is the entrance animation for the scenario that is hidden and will be displayed at the click of the Image component. Delay(s): Duration(s):
Hide	Scenario:This is the scenario for which the command is set. Entrance Animation:Show command supports the following Entrance animations None\Fade In\From Top\From Bottom\From Left\From Right. This is the entrance animation for the scenario that is hidden and will be displayed at the click of the Image component. Exit Animation: Show command supports the following Exit animations None\Fade out\To Top\To Bottom\To Left\To Right. This is the exit animation for the scenario that will be hidden on the click of the Image component. Delay(s): Duration(s):
Switch Page	Page: This refers to the page where the user is directed to after clicking on the Image component.
Switch Tab	Container Tab

Steps for Customizing the dashboard scenarios.

Listed below are a few examples for customizing the dashboard scenarios:

• Customize using the Toggle Command to toggle the visibility of the scenario.

• Create a Dashboard.

Add Column Chart Scenario

2. From the Data Visualization tab on the left of the dashboard designer, drag and drop a Column Chart on the design area.
3. From the Data Binding tab on the right, select Retail Dataset, which is already available to us. We will use this chart to analyze the revenue generated vs year.
4. Drag and drop the data fields as follows and see how the chart title is automatically generated.

Data Binding Property	Fields
Values	Revenue
Axis (Category)	Retailer Country
Legend (Series)	Year

You can add aggregations or other functions to the field in Values, in addition to renaming or adding filters.

5. From the Inspector tab, set the Visibility to True under Appearance.

Add a Label Slicer

6. From the Data Visualization tab on the left of the dashboard designer, drag and drop a Label Slicer on the design area.
7. From the Data Binding tab on the right, select Retail Dataset.
8. Drag and drop the data fields as follows.

Data Binding Property	Fields
Columns	Retailer Country

You can add aggregations or other functions to the field in Values, in addition to renaming or adding filters.

9. From the Inspector tab, set the Visibility to False under Appearance.

10. Now, add an Image Component (we have taken a "View More" image in this example), as shown below.

11. Now, on the Inspector tab, set the Image Click Action as Command.

12. Click to add the command.

    Command Setting dialog box is displayed. Select the Toggle command from the dropdown list.

    

    Properties related to the Toggle command are displayed.

13. Enter the details in the Command Setting dialog box.

    

14. Click the OK button.

15. Click Save to save the dashboard and then click Preview.

    You will see only one Column Chart (for which the visibility was set to” True”) and the View More image.
    

    

16. Click the “View More” image, the Label Slicer scenario will also be displayed along with the entrance animation.

    

    You can now filter the data based on the Slicer condition as well. Like here in this example, you can show the Sum of Revenue based on the selected Retailer Country from the Slicer. Select Australia to display detail only for Australia.

    

17. Click again on the “View More" image, the Slicer “Retailer Country” will be hidden.

So, the click on the “View More" image will Toggle the Slicer visibility on Preview.

• Show or hide a component when clicking on a 'Hyperlink' on the rich text

• Create a Dashboard.

3. From the Data Binding tab on the right, select Retail Dataset, which is already available to us. We will use this chart to analyze the revenue generated vs year.
4. Drag and drop the data fields as follows and see how the chart title is automatically generated.
