Embed a History Table in your Px view

Part three of adding a comment box to a Px view, is embedding the History Table view in your Px page to display the saved comments.


Prerequisites:

Add a widget with a Workbench view and History Table

  1. Drag the StringWritable history component to the Px view.
  2. In the Make Widget wizard, select Workbench view and History Table.
  3. In the properties area, set the following values:
    • defaultLiveUpdates = true
    • show time range editor = false
    • show delta editor = false
    • show live updates buttons = false
After saving your changes, the History Table containing all the text entries displays in the Px view. When a new comment is entered and saved in the Px view, the history table automatically updates, displaying the latest entry. Your comments box and history table should resemble those shown here:
