Mapping for Attributes in the Graphic
This portion of the screen displays the attributes associated with the selected graphic (or other
entity). With the buttons to the right of this portion of the screen, you can
Clear Mapping which
removes any previous association for the attribute, or
Edit Mapping which opens the editor below
this screen.
Specify Graphic Attribute to Entity Mapping
This portion of the screen displays a text area ( Label Expression ) in which the selected Entity
Attribute
mappings appear. To enter such a mapping, select an Entity Attribute from the pick list
next to that label and click the plus (+) to its right. The programmatic text designation for that
attribute appears in the
Label Expression text area. For example:
#{Redcell.Config.Contact_ID}. You can also enter a combination of such designations
and fixed, non-variable text you type in. For example:
Contact:#{Redcell.Config.Contact_Contact_ID}
This configures the Topology display for a contact as the word “Contact:” followed by the contact
ID.
NOTE:
If you select a graphic, like #{Redcell.Config.Contact_Contact_Icon} , then only the
text label for that icon appears in text fields. This editor does not correct you if you select a graphic in a
text field.
Click Apply to accept your edits and alter the list at the top of this screen, or Cancel to abandon
them.
Specify Condition and Presentation
Finally, you can set the appearance of these configured attributes to alter based on filters. Click
Add Condition to open an editor at the bottom of the screen to create such a condition (or Edit
Condition
to alter an existing, selected condition). Specifying conditions is like creating filters as
described in Filtering and Searching on page 158. When the filter is satisfied, the appearance
(presentation) configured applies within the Topology view. Click
Apply to accept your edits, or
Cancel to abandon them.
