3.2.1  General Tab

The General tab of the 'Properties' dialog box is common to many components. It has five standard properties, shown in the table below.

Name

This name is used to refer to the component in binding and scripting. For purposes of scripting, the name should contain no spaces.

Visible in External Viewsheets

If checked, the component will be visible when this Viewsheet is embedded in another Viewsheet (see Building a Composite Dashboard).

Visible

Show: Element is visible.

Hide: Element is invisible.

Hide on Print: Element is visible on screen but hidden when exported.

Enabled

true: Element is interactive.

false: Element is not interactive.

Note: For Selection components, when 'Enabled' is 'false', existing selections in the component do not affect Viewsheet data.

Title

The text that appears in the title bar (for components which have one). The 'Visible' option determines whether the title bar itself is displayed. Besides the 'Title' field, you can also edit title bar text by double-clicking the title bar itself.
