SmartInfo Settings (for hover)
Optionally, you can define a source for HTML code to be rendered in a pop-up window or displayed as an embedded <DIV> when users hold the mouse pointer over a row (hover) or when they click a row expand arrow(
) at the beginning of the row. For example, this capability can allow users to review details about a work item on a worklist, without requiring the users to open the work item.
For examples, see How to implement "hover and see" worklists with Smart Info and PDN article How to add a SmartInfo display in a row of a report.
SmartInfo pop-ups are designed for read-only presentation. Do not attempt to include input fields or other controls.
Field
|
Description
|
| Header
|
Enter text to appear in the header of the pop-up window. Alternatively, if this summary view report is to be localized, identify a field value rule to contain the header text.
|
| Content
|
Identify the name of an activity to develop the HTML text to be rendered. This activity must meet the following conditions:
- The Applies To key part of the activity matches the Applies To key part of the summary view rule, or is a parent class of this list rule
- The activity accepts a parameter named
keyHandle.
- The activity assembles and returns text or an HTML stream that meets certain restrictions listed here.
The activity can return HTML code that is a partial document that contains:
- No <HTML> or </HTML> elements
- No input fields
- No <TEXTAREA > elements
- No JavaScript code or calls
Additionally, when rendered by a browser as a pop-up, the window must be modest in size. For an example activity that meets these criteria, see PDN article 24125 How to enable a SmartInfo display on report rows.
It may be beneficial to record in the Description field a notification that this capability is available, for example:
Hold mouse pointer over any row to see details...
This facility uses AJAX to communicate the request to the PRPC server.
|
| Embedded
|
Select to have the SmartInfo content embedded in the report to display when you click the expand arrow at the beginning of the row.
When selected, at runtime a Row Expand Arrow () changes to a Row Collapse Arrow ( ), the workstation sends a request to the server to run the Content activity specified in the previous field, and the resulting HTML output appears below the current line.
|
| Field
|
Optional. Select one field — from those appearing in the Display fields tab — to activate the SmartInfo display — to cause the SmartInfo display to appear only when the mouse pointer is held over a value in that field.
If blank, the SmartInfo display is activated when the mouse pointer is held over any field in the row and does not move for at least 700 milliseconds. The workstation sends a request to the server to run the Content activity specified in the previous field, and the resulting HTML output appears in a pop-up window.
This field appears only when the Embedded? option is not selected.
