Advanced Custom Block and Property Configuration

Integrate Software AG Products Using Digital Event Services : MashZone NextGen Help : Appendix : Legacy Presto components : Mashables and Mashups : Mashups in MashZone NextGen Wires : Customizing Wires : Advanced Custom Block and Property Configuration

The macro metadata element <uiconfig> provides several ways to further customize aspects of a custom Wires block or of individual property fields for custom blocks. This metadata element uses JSON configuration objects for various classes in Ext JS, plus additional configuration properties that are specific to MashZone NextGen.

Important:

When <uiconfig> is used to completely define one block property or all block properties, you must meet the licensing terms for Ext JS as this use is not covered by your MashZone NextGen license.

The techniques discussed in this topic are advanced configuration using JavaScript and Ext JS. Users should be comfortable with the Ext JS 4.0 Library and JavaScript programming in general.

With <uiconfig>, you can set:

Additional Configuration for Blocks

Configure Field and Line Sizes for Custom Block Properties for individual block property fields.

Dynamic List Values from a Known Source for block property fields that are limited to a list of valid values.

Additional Configuration for Block Property Fields

Note:

For information on the Ext JS configuration properties that you may use in <uiconfig> elements, see Ext JS documentation at http://docs.sencha.com/ext-js/4-0/.
