Link Tags

Links are used in any page type. Links can be defined in a chart, grid, or table element in free-form layout pages or in tabular layout pages.

Tag	Examples	Status	Notes
alert	alert "Alert" { value column = "Cases" low-threshold 1000 high-threshold 100000 }	Optional	Defines an alert based on the named column and thresholds.
background-color	background-color "123abc"	Optional	Sets the background color of the grid. Color is written as a hexadecimal code.
border	border	Optional	Applies a border to the grid block area.
bullet	bullet column = "Cases" { title "Bullet" bar-color "123abc" }	Optional	Defines a bullet based on the named column.
column-set	column-set id = "cs-grid" { text column = "Cases" text column = "Cost" text column = "Net Sale" }	Optional	Defines a column-set block. These are previously defined sets of columns in a definitions block. Within a grid block, a column-set cannot include an expand-set.
cplan	cplan "/cplans/training/test.cplan"	Optional	Indicates the data source. Can include filters. If a cPlan is not defined, the grid uses the cPlan that is defined for the containing block.
grid	grid { row "Cases" row "Cost" } grid id = "grd-dimensions" { row { text column = "Cases Count" } row { text column = "Cost Count" } }	Required	Defines a grid block by specifying rows from a cPlan and the strings for those rows.
location latlong-column	location latlong-column = "calc-latlong"	Optional	Identifies the placement of and distance to a location using latitude and longitude. Works in conjunction with the location-distance tag.
location-distance	location-distance { link { map column = "Lat-Long" } }	Optional	Identifies the placement of and distance to a location using latitude and longitude. Works in conjunction with the location latlong-column tag.
map column	map column = "Lat-Long"	Optional	Identifies the summary column that contains location information for a map. This can be used by itself or with the location-distance tag if you want to calculate distance.
page	link { page id = "rp-brands" }	Optional	Identifies the data page that you want to explicitly link to. The id tag specifies the page to use.
parameter	link { page area-id = "data-area-landing" id = "central-pg" parameter = "Customer" "1770 HOUSE" }	Optional	Identifies the dimension and the dimension value to pass on to the target page. The target page is identified by the page id.
percent	percent = 50 percent = 85	Optional	Identifies the percentage of the display layout allocated for the element. NOTE: The total percentage must equal 100.
row	row "Cost" row { text column = "Cost Count" }	Required	Defines a row for a grid block. A row can only contain one summary value. Within an hsplit tag, the rows show left to right; within a vsplit tag, they still show left to right. Can include an alert, bullet, column-set, or text-column.
text column	row { text column = "Cases" { justification "left" link { page id = "rp-grid" } } }	Optional	Identifies which summary column the row is referring to. When used in a grid block, the content can be justified, or include a link, or both.
