Range slider

In the Range Slider sub-node, the application range and the characteristic value of the range slider are defined.

Configuration of a range slider

TYPE

FORMAT

Name

Name of the range slider displayed in the WebOffice core Client.

Label postfix

Description that is added after a separating space to each value displayed on the range slider to clarify its meaning.

Typical examples would be mm, meters above sea level, liter/second, Euro etc.

External ID

Defines the identifier with which the area slider can also be addressed in a parameterized call of WebOffice.

•The consideration of the range slider in the external call only determines whether a slider is initially visible at project start in WebOffice core. However, this cannot be used to control whether the range slider is initially activated.

•Note that certain special characters may not be used in the ID for the external call. For example: < > ( ) as well as spaces.

Initially activated?

Determines whether the range slider is initially active after project start and thus also filters the corresponding values on the affected layers (true) or not (false). A range slider can be active even if it is minimized.

Slider type

Defines the display mode of the range slider in the GUI of the WebOffice core Client. A distinction can be made between the following types:

•ValueRange Slider
The ValueRange Slider type represents a slider with two slider marks (minimum value and maximum value) and is used to select a value range.

•SingleValue Slider
The Single Value Slider type represents a slider with a slider mark and is used to select a single value.

•SingleValue Stepper
The Single Value Stepper type always displays a single value that can be changed by selecting previous value or next value. The desired value can also be selected from a drop-down list.

Show input fields?

Specifies whether one or two text fields should be displayed next to the range slider to manually enter a certain value (Yes) or not (No).

The number of text fields available depends on the selected slider type.

Initial minimum value

Defines the minimum value to be initially selected on the range slider.

•Values of the type NUMERIC must be given using a dot '.' as decimal separator, e.g. 2.0|12.58|13.4158

•If the Initial minimum value corresponds to one of the tics (e.g. "1.0") but is specified without a decimal place (e.g. "1"), the slider is initially set to the smallest available value instead (instead of "1.0").

•If the Initial minimum value does not correspond to any of the tics (e.g. "1.23"), the slider is initially set to the smallest available value instead (e.g. "1.0").

•Values of the type DATE must be specified either as Unix timestamp in milliseconds or in the format YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS or YYYY-MM-DD.

Initial maximum value

Defines the maximum value to be initially selected on the range slider.

•Values of type NUMERIC must be given using a dot '.' as decimal separator, e.g. 2.0|12.58|13.4158

•Values of type DATE must be specified either as Unix timestamp in milliseconds or in the format YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS or YYYY-MM-DD.

Map view

Specifies which map view to switch to when this range slider is selected in the WebOffice core Client. If no map view is defined at this point, the map remains unchanged with the selection of a specific range slider.

Numerical labels precision

Defines the number of decimal places to be used for the values displayed on the slider.

This setting is only applied when a range slider contains numeric values.

Filtering with enumerated values?

Specifies what kind of filter will be created based on the selected range on the range slider.

If Yes (default setting): The range is used to create a FROM minimum TO maximum filter.

If No: All selected values are used to create a IN(value4,value5,value6,value7) filter.

If a range slider is based on values that can be interpolated (i.e. NUMERIC or DATE), this setting will result in a slider where interpolation is not possible. Only the configured values can be selected and only those will be used for the filter.

Display labels without gaps?

Specifies how a range slider that is based on interpolatable values is displayed.

If No (default setting): The values are displayed with mathematically correct gaps.

If Yes: All defined values are displayed on the slider with equal intervals.

•As a result of this setting, interpolation will not be possible anymore on the slider. Only the defined values can be selected.

•This setting is only applicable if a range slider is based on values that can be interpolated (i.e. NUMERIC or DATE)
