About bound label bindings

Bound label bindings exclusively connect a value to a bound label widget. Bound labels, which you can add from the Graphics Editor popup menu, have properties that are available from the properties side bar.

To access these properties after dragging a BoundLabel from the kitPx palette to the Px Editor, double-click the bound label. These properties are toward the bottom of the list.

Property Value Description
Ord Defaults to null Defines the location of the data value to bind to the widget. This is a required property for the widget to be bound.

In a Popup binding this path that designates the component view to display in the popup window.

Degrade Behavior Defaults to None Specifies what the user sees when binding communications are not available. If a binding cannot be used, this property determines how the UI degrades gracefully. For example, if a user does not have permission to invoke a specific action, a button bound to the action can be grayed out or hidden entirely.
Hyperlink Defaults to null Links to another object. When used, the link is active in the browser or in the graphic view.
Summary Bql Query statement; defaults to %displayName%=%.% Specifies a display name for the widget as text or by means of a script.
Popup Enabled true (default) or false Specifies if a secondary window is to open when a user clicks this label in a browser or the graphic view.
Status Effect three options Configures what happens when the status of a bound value changes:

Color changes the background color.

Color and blink changes the background color and causes the value to blink.

None disables any effects when the status of a bound value changes.
