Use the Event tab to define a client-side click-across event for dial gauges. Dial gauge click-across events are triggered when a user clicks the dial hand.
The Preview tab does not support testing or previewing
dial gauge click-across events.
See the Enterprise Portal Developer’s Guide.
Event Name – enter a name to define a client-side dial gauge click-across event.
Event Value – select a value from the drop-down list to customize which value is used for click-across event data.
Dial Hand – sends the value of the dial gauge hand that is clicked. If you click on a dial hand pointing to 170, the Click Across event value is 1701.
Dynamic – if you select this value, you must also define one of the data source table columns with the special label “EventValue”. The value in the EventValue column is used as the click-across event data.
Header – uses the header value as the click-across event data.
Parameter – allows received click-across event data to be used as data in newly generated click-across events. This event type can be used only if the dial gauge portlet is also a click-across listener portlet.
When you select Parameter, a text box appears next to the Event type drop-down list where you enter the name of the CGI parameter to use as the data source for events generated by users clicking the dial gauge dial hands.
For example, assume a dial gauge portlet is defined as a click-across listener for the event “MyEvent,” and that MyEvent is associated with the CGI parameter “Param1.” Also assume that the Parameter value is the Event type and that Param1 is the CGI parameter selected when the dial gauge template is customized. If the value received via MyEvent is the text string “Bob,” then after the dial gauge portlet refreshes, “Bob” is the click-across value sent when the dial gauge dial hands are clicked.
Static – when you select Static, a text box appears next to the Event type drop-down list where you enter a static fixed value to use as the click-across event data.
Notify Now – select this option if the click-across event is to be broadcast to listener portlets immediately after the event is triggered.
Notify Across Pages? – select this option if the click-across event is to be received by a click-across listener portlet on a different page in Portal Interface.
