Outputs

The widgets and widget containers in this category allow a UX designer to select a proper way to display output data on a screen.

Grid

Widgets based on aps/Grid are often used to present a list of resources in the form of a table. In many applications, the widget is used in the main service view to show all resources provisioned for the customer or assigned to a user. It allows making a view flexible due to the following features:

• Row selection

• Row sorting by a column or by a category and sub-category

• Filtering

• Paging navigation

• Operating the selected rows using an embedded aps/Toolbar

• Placing in a column an arbitrary active widget by means of the Method renderCell

Text Data

Use the aps/Output widget when you need to print out simple text, data based on a text template, or text using an HTML code. It allows you to mark up the printed text by means of the alertType property.

Note

This is the only recommended way to output text marked up as HTML for security reasons. Be aware of the Probable Threats when using this capability.

The widget can be inside various containers in accordance with the Layout Rules.

Graphical Data

When you need to attract attention to some data, typically to resource usage, the aps/Gauge and aps/Pie widgets are the suitable graphical tools. They clearly display a ratio of the current value to the upper limit of a property or a value in the range from the lower limit to the upper limit.

Gauge

An aps/Gauge widget displays a property in the linear form. The classesMap structure allows customizing the gauge visualization by means of the ratio-to-light mapping.
