The Configure Gauge task panel enables you to define attributes for a gauge control.

The following table describes the properties and attributes of this model element:

Group

Property

Description

General

Label

The label text to be displayed to the left of the control. You can either enter the text directly in the Label field, or click the fx button to define the label text using the Dynamic Expression Editor dialog box.

Value

The field to which the control is bound. You can either enter the field data directly in the Value field, choose a field from the dropdown list, or choose Define expression from the dropdown list to specify a field value using the Dynamic Expression Editor dialog box.

Specify the field using one of the following formats:

  • A field in the same view element: =@BANK_CTRY

  • A field in a different view element within the same component: =BANK_LIST@BANK_CTRY

  • A field in a view element within a different component: =[bapi_bank_getlist.Input]@BANK_CTRY

Visible

The field to which the control is bound. You can either enter the field data directly in the Value field, choose a field from the dropdown list, or choose Define expression from the dropdown list to specify a field value using the Dynamic Expression Editor dialog box.

Specify the field using one of the following formats:

  • A field in the same view element: =@BANK_CTRY

  • A field in a different view element within the same component: =BANK_LIST@BANK_CTRY

  • A field in a view element within a different component: =[bapi_bank_getlist.Input]@BANK_CTRY

Indent

Defines the alignment of the control within the layout column.

You can select or deselect the checkbox to specify whether the control is indented or left-aligned, or click the fx button to define the expression that specifies under which condition the control is indented at runtime.

For some control types, left-aligning the control hides the label and stretches the control to fill the entire column width; for other control types, it hides the label and left-aligns the control (without changing the control width).

Tooltip

Text to be displayed in a tooltip over the element at runtime.

You can either enter the tooltip text directly in the Tooltip field, or click the fx button to define the tooltip using the Dynamic Expression Editor dialog box.

Range

Minimum

The lowest numerical value in the range.

Min. label

The label displayed at the low end of the range.

Maximum

The highest numerical value in the range.

Max. label

The label displayed at the high end of the range.

Ticks
