Visuals - Style

From VersaVision Support

OVERVIEW


A Style is a customized cell appearance the user can design. This includes multiple options.

Once a Style is created it can be selected on one or more Dashboards or Widgets. This makes editing a color a 1-stop event rather than having to edit every cell on every dashboard/widget.

This page will provide information on each option that can be accessed on the Styles page.


NAVIGATION


The New Style or Edit Style page can be accessed from the Main Styles page by selecting to Add a New Style or Edit/Duplicate a Style.

GENERAL


Each Style must have a Name entered in the Name field. Click in the Name field to enter a name.



Each Style can have a description entered, this is an optional field. Click in the Description field to setup a description for the style.



The Advanced toggle allows the user to use CSS to define the cell appearance. We do not suggest using this feature unless the user is knowledgeable in the CSS language/code.
If there is a Style with Advanced settings, please contact VersaCall Support for assistance.
