Visuals - Content Condition

From VersaVision Support

OVERVIEW


A Content Condition allows the user to define a set of variables that must be met to change the content (what is displayed) of a cell. This element is used in Widgets and Dashboards.

An example of using Content Condition would be showing the Downtime Duration (Elapsed Time) when there is an issue.

This page will explain the setup of a Content Condition.


NAVIGATION


Content Conditions are accessed by selecting the Content tab on the Conditions Editor.

DETAILS


The user will either select to add a new condition or select an existing condition. The Style Properties menu will load on the left side of the Conditions list.
There are 2 sections presented on the Style Properties:

If Statement - this is where the user will define the criteria that needs to be met for the Content to be presented in the cell.
Content - this is where the user will define the type of Content to be presented in the cell.


In the If Statement section there are 3 fields available to the user. Click on the down arrow in the Comparator 1 field.

Comparator 1 - this is where the user will select the Variable for comparison.
Method - this is where the user will select the method to make the comparison.
Comparator 2 - this is where the user will either enter a value or select a Variable for comparison.


Select the Variable from the list for the Condition being created.
This example will be using the Downtime Duration Variable.



Click on the down arrow in the Method field.



There will be six Methods available in the list - select the appropriate Method for the Condition being created.
This example will have the Greater Than Method selected.

= - select this option to have Comparator 1 Equal Comparator 2.
> - select this option to have Comparator 1 be Greated Than Comparator 2.
< - select this option to have Comparator 1 be Less Than Comparator 2.
- select this option to have Comparator 1 Not Equal Comparator 2.
- select this option to have Comparator 1 be Greater Than or Equal To Comparator 2.
- select this option to have Comparator 1 be Less Than or Equal to Comparator 2.




Click on the down arrow in the Comparator 2 field to select a Variable or click in the field to enter a value.
This example will have a Value of "0". If there is any downtime (time accumulated/more than "0") the cell will use the Content selected.



To enable Custom Statements, the user will toggle the Advance button on. Contact VersaCall Support for assistance on using the Advanced/Custom Statement feature.
