This dashboard part allows to create a visual plan containing different graphic primitives and images that can be manipulated with an input query.

You can set a background image that will be displayed in the dashboard.

In the next screen you get an area to place elements. If the element palette is not available, choose: Window/Show View/Others.../Palette

You can now place:

Image
Multiple Image
Other graphic primitives (Rectangle, Square, Circle, Ellipse, Triangle, Rhomb, Pentagon, Hexagon, Octagon)

on the build area. You can select an element and click into the area. Afterwards a new windows opens and allows to configure the part.

Image

If the source/query connected to this dashboard part has multiple sinks, you can choose the sink that should be treated by this element.
Predicate to ecvaluate tuple or not: Here you can use a MEP predicate to state the cases when this part should be changed. This predicate will be evaluated over the incoming tuple.
Image: The image that will be shown. Images must be part of the workspace.
Predicate to show the image: Here you can define a MEP predicate that is used to show or to hide the image depending on the value of the incoming tuple.
Resize options should be obvious
Text at top/middle/bottom: A text that should be displayed at the image. If you start with "=" the text will be interpreted as MEP expression and the result will be printed. This can be used to print the current value of some (or more) attributes (use toString and + to concatenate different attributes)

Multiple Images

Odysseus > Adaptive Graphics > image2015-4-15 13:17:45.png

This part is quite similar to the image field. The difference here is, that multiple images can be displayed and shown, depending on an MEP predicate. The image predicates are evaluated from top to bottom and the first image predicate that is true, will lead to the display of the assigned image. Use the X buttom to remove an image predicate.

Other graphic primitives

Similar to the Multiple Images element these primitives can configured to show different colors for different predicates. The other options (beside witdh and rotate) are the same.
